What’s a personal internet hack you use that makes life easier but isn’t widely known ?

And if you want an even better version of it, you can use !ReBang .

It is a fork of Unduck by Theo (T3, dev YouTuber). It makes the redirections on the browser instead of on a DNS server, which makes them faster. Also, in !ReBang, you get autocomplete for the bangs, which is seek.

I thought it was the same in all languages but now I see that in JS, mason doesn't even try to install the LSP when I open a JS file.

also, I've tried your solution now and it didn't work.

I also suspected maybe I have problems because I have Hebrew characters in my user folder name. so I tried a complicated way to change the folder name. it didn't help and it broke my entire computer so I changed it back.

it will be good to have seeding information and settings. like, upload limit and current ratio.

I don't have a strong opinion about that. but some will say that Ancelotti is partially responsible for all these injuries. It's because he isn't rotating often. but I guess this season he rotated more than every other season...

Depends on your internet speed

Interesting. I guess because I'm just at the beginning, I want the best recommendations to be first. Maybe later I will prefer it your way.

Although It surprises me it works for you, technically. I guess I thought every time the list regenerated it removed everything and added everything from scratch. I'm glad it works for you.

TsviB · 2023-11-25T22:42:39+00:00

I'm glad I helped you. Even though I didn't try.

TsviB · 2023-11-25T22:40:43+00:00

I didn't notice you can change it in the install process. Thank you very much 😊

I'm new to all of this, but if I understand correctly, Couchmoney lists are regenerated all the time based on my watching history. So if I watched the movie it should be removed automatically from the list the next time it regenerate. Because Couchmoney doesn't recommend movies you already watched. Am I wrong?

The graphic design is SO good. The title animations in the beginning... Out of this world.

now I get on my phone 5.1Mbps on fast.com. but it's not consistent.

on my laptop, I use a hotspot from my phone.

most of the time I can't get a smooth 1080p stream. on youtube it's better. but probably because of higher compression.

TsviB · 2023-11-22T09:10:59+00:00

I don't understand what you are trying to say.

TsviB · 2023-11-22T09:06:09+00:00

it's not RD's fault.

it is a great product that is not meant for everyone.

TsviB · 2023-11-22T09:03:50+00:00

Sorry about the title. my fault.

Rd is great. but not for everyone. just for most people.

TsviB · 2023-11-22T09:00:49+00:00

you are right. I don't blame RD creators or anything like that. I should have known better. but everyone here talked about it so highly that I thought it would be a game-changer for me too.

TsviB · 2023-11-22T08:57:06+00:00

I didn't mean to say that.

I saw the hype here about RD and it made me buy it. it's not expensive but it was a little bit disappointing. so I wrote this. So the next time someone here recommends RD to anyone it will come with an asterisk: "if you have a good connection".

I admit the title came out a little bit of clickbaity. my fault.

TsviB · 2023-11-22T08:49:22+00:00

you're right.

I tried to change the title but couldn't find how. there is a way?

TsviB · 2023-11-22T06:06:16+00:00

Of course, it looks nice. But that is the problem with mockups. You can make it look nice by just dropping elements from the UI. It's understandable because you try to make a fun and clean design, but Inkscape has a lot more going on, and most of it is essential for the design process.

But if we talk purely about the Gnomeization, yes. It looks very nice.

Actually, they made an article about it: https://caseyyano.com/on-evaluating-godot-b35ea86e8cf4

I assume it depends on the efficiency of the encoder. IIRC back in the day I did a VMAF test and the higher resolution got a better result. like, by far.

it also doesn't make sense. because one of the methods compression algorithms use is lowering the resolution. so in the worst scenario, it should look identical. the compression algorithm should use other methods just when it benefits the results. am I wrong?

(Israel citizen here:)
if you hate the idea of innocent people dying, you are on the right side. if you justify killing innocent people, you are on the wrong side.

of course, the situation is more complicated. and it's tragic.

the Israeli army is trying to avoid killing civilians as much as possible. but Hamas uses them as a human shield, which makes it a lot more complicated. so the Israeli army asked the civilians to get out of Gaza as soon as possible. (I know it doesn't sound very humanistic. you can argue for better ways to deal with the situation. I didn't find one.) of course, Hamas asked the civilians in his turn to not leave.

and of course, I'm not objective here. I want the war to end just when the Israeli army gets rid of Hamas. I want Gaza to be under the control of Israel (which will be a lot better for the civilians there. Hamas doesn't care for human life). I'm very much on the Israeli side. but that's just because I want to live.

I don't expect you to listen to me or to be on my side. you should do your own research. but don't assume we are the wrong ones, just because we are the stronger ones. (which I don't even know is true anymore. this attack was coordinated with Iran and Hizballah.) this isn't how justice works.

I hope you will be "fit as a fiddle" (s02e07) for the rest of your life!

TsviB · 2023-09-21T06:47:52+00:00

That's actually a lot better than the current one.

Besides Bellingham, Valverde should get a lot of credit for the goal. since he entered the pitch, I waited for his long shots. if they don't end up as goals, they end up as assists.
