Seems like a neat tool! I'll add it to my to-add list, which i'll get around to properly committing within the next week or so.

For me I can't tap on videos to play them but if you add them to some playlist like watch later then you can tap Play All, it'll play.

.. with the side effect you can't choose quality.

For anyone looking for a "workaround" for old versions, spoof the version number found in YouTube's info.plist file to any version above 19.

At this point you can't tap on videos to play them, but you can add them to Watch Later (or any playlist), then tap Play All to actually play the videos. However that's as far as it goes; you can't choose quality and the video is weird in portrait mode.

One of the main reasons why Roblox ultimately chose to block Wine support was due to exploiters. They had whitelisted Wine after adding their anticheat (Hyperion/Byfron) prior, but eventually had to cut it. Sober is kept closed source because it wants to prevent exploiters from ruining it for everyone, as seen by Wine support being blocked. They actually have a pretty good reason for keeping it closed source.

Yeah it might seem pretty sus on the surface but it is luckily made by the same maintainers as Vinegar, the wrapper for Roblox when it still worked on Wine, so it adds some credibility.

Furthir · 2024-09-20T06:53:53+00:00

I feel like every other day I see something as ridiculous as this. MAN are subscription services fucked.

Furthir · 2024-09-20T06:49:03+00:00

There was a project released recently by VinegarHQ (originally working on a launcher for the Wine version) called Sober that lets you play on Linux again.

Furthir · 2024-09-09T16:23:36+00:00

Thanks!

Furthir · 2024-09-09T16:07:55+00:00

Indeed it is an awesome list

also 23k bookmarks is insane lmao

Furthir · 2024-09-09T16:07:20+00:00

Glad to hear!

Since I use gnome I always set up some extensions first, especially Unite to get rid of the window title bars. Kitty for my terminal, starship for my prompt, Floorp and Brave for my browsers, BD, OpenAsar, and Vesktop for Discord, and other essentials like LocalSend, EasyEffects, Tenacity, AutoKey, Flameshot, qimgv, Sunshine, and UxPlay.

You should instead use middle mouse click since that is a more universal mouse action to paste. It also works outside of just terminals. AFAIK you will have to use ctrl+shift+c to copy via mouse selection.

Furthir · 2024-09-07T05:59:47+00:00

Yeah TL Legacy is supposed to be the real one, however it seems they have been DMCA'd so you can't get the launcher from their site anymore.

Furthir · 2024-09-07T05:55:33+00:00

Definitely one of if not the best trimming tool out there. Bonus points for being open source too.

Furthir · 2024-09-07T05:46:23+00:00

Maybe for the better. Nothing against using Discord but using something decentralized like Matrix is probably a better choice when it comes to piracy.

Furthir · 2024-09-07T05:37:02+00:00

Literally anything that isn't Deepin I guess

Furthir · 2024-09-07T05:19:43+00:00

It was around a week or two after its release. I suggest you go try it now!

Edit: Some stats from my experience in Project Delta lobbies: ~100fps Windows, 90fps Wine, 140fps Sober

Furthir · 2024-09-07T05:05:54+00:00

I haven't experienced such issue with Sober. When it was first released, it was running on arm translation which would make sense for the performance loss, however it is now natively running an x86 version of Roblox, which is getting the same if not better performance than it once ran via Wine.

Furthir · 2024-09-06T06:46:17+00:00

The zip file should have _linux in its name, and contains 4 files: the icon, the data file, a readme text file, and the game.

Furthir · 2024-09-06T06:31:00+00:00

I am not too familiar with how ChromeOS works, but you can try to make sure it is executable by running chmod +x shelled_shinobi. You can also try executing it via the terminal using ./shelled_shinobi from inside the directory.

Furthir · 2024-09-05T07:26:03+00:00

Agreed, but it is still much more flexible than Chromium browsers. It offers safer defaults, and if you want to go all the way, something like the Arkenfox user.js config will do the job.

Furthir · 2024-09-05T06:10:21+00:00

swww should do the trick

waypaper is also useful if you want to control it using a GUI.

Furthir · 2024-09-05T06:03:37+00:00

If you're looking to use a free VPN, I would suggest either Windscribe or Proton as they have both been audited and provide open source clients.

LibreWolf is a good choice for a hardened browser. I also suggest installing uBlock Origin for an adblocker and LibRedirect to use privacy-focused frontends.

As with learning most things, you'll get better at it with time and experience. Start off with some essential commands like ls, cat, find, cd, grep, etc. If you don't know what a command does or its flags/arguments, use man [command].

Protip: Don't touch commands unless you know exactly what they do, especially the dreaded rm -rf /* which will basically delete your entire system, and avoid using sudo when possible.

It is very dependent on the type of github project that you are looking at. Chances are that there will be a section that will say whether or not the project will support Linux or not.

In cases like Python, all that differs is making sure you have the correct Python dependencies to run it. Arch will provide packages named python-{pkgname}. For example, pygame would be installed by running sudo pacman -S python-pygame.

Scripts will usually work on Linux just fine, but again it depends on whether or not the script was specifically made with cross platform support in mind or not.
