I’ve been using Fennec F-Droid, which is based on Firefox. I mostly use it because I want a non-chromium based browser and Firefox and it’s derivatives have browser extensions on android. I chose Fennec F-Droid because, while I could be wrong, it seems to be slightly smaller and run slightly faster than Firefox.

There, I fixed it. It took me a while to understand what the problem was but I figured it out.

The Reddit community is part of the reason I stopped playing RuneScape a few years ago. The in-game community was fine for the most part, as players would mostly keep to themselves or just talk with their own groups. But the subreddit would get super offended/aggressive towards each other for the stupidest things and the mods always seemed to make things worse.

I’ve always been of the believe that all online games with subscription services should always be $60 a year at most. If you do the math, $60 a year per player is way more than what single-player games make and maintaining/updating online games doesn’t require as much work as making brand new games either.

And yes, I’m aware of the whole thing with the bonds and how they technically allow you to play the game for free but, at least compared to the old prices, they aren’t as efficient as just buying a member and Jagex makes more money off of them. So, I still think that Jagex shouldn’t change the membership prices.

I haven’t been paying to much attention to the news but I’ve heard that other, non-NATO, countries have threatened some of the countries that are just simply giving aid to Ukraine. So, I’d assume that those other countries would get involved in some way and just make things worse for everyone.

The thing that I don’t understand is that, if this is such a big problem for Microsoft, why not just remove the system requirements or at least make an alternative version of Windows 11 that, even if it lacks certain features, doesn’t have those requirements?

Microsoft wants people to switch to Windows 11 but a majority stay with Windows 10 because their systems don’t have what’s required and they’re either not willing to use Linux or they can’t for what ever their reason is. Making Windows 11 more accessible to Windows 10 users would fix this problem for most users but they’re not for some reason. I know they’re Microsoft and Microsoft doesn’t care about their users but they’re seemingly willing to lose a significant portion of their users over something so insignificant, which is out of character for Microsoft.

One that I’m aware of is “tskr” in Japanese. It’s a slang term that derives from たすかる (tasukaru). The meaning depends on the context and it can mean something like either “you saved me” or “thanks for helping me”.

Yeah there’s one that I’ve wondered for a while now. Awhile back, I found out that women don’t have prostates but they can still feel pleasure from that hole. How can they feel pleasure from that hole if they don’t have a prostate?

If the issue is with the DE, I’m actually using the Xfce edition of Linux Mint. I would just use VLC but it gives me performance issues because I don’t have the best hardware and mpv seems to work much more efficiently. But yeah, changing the audio output fixed this issue, I’m guessing the flatpak version of mpv defaults to pipewire. I was curious and I did test pipewire with both versions and I got the same results that they did.

Am I missing something here? I thought X/Twitter always allowed NSFW content.

I know it’s been a while but I tried the flatpak version of mpv and it’s not working. If I open the flatpak version without any music it opens but it becomes unresponsive as soon as I try to load any music. I also have no idea how to diagnose this issue as running the flatpak version in the terminal gives no error messages.

The version that comes with Linux Mint works perfectly fine, so I don’t need the flatpak version, I’m just curious as to why the flatpak version doesn’t work.

If you’re using Windows, DXWnd has some options for improving the graphics in games. It may not work for every game but it’s probably worth checking out.

I might try that later because, like I said earlier, I got the version of MPV that’s already installed to play YouTube videos and that fine for me. I also made configurations to the preinstalled version and I don’t know if it would be easy, or even possible, to transfer them to the flatpak version.

Well, while MPV might be outdated, I already mentioned that I was able to get YouTube videos working by downloading a newer version of yt-dlp and creating a conf file for MPV that links to it. While I was looking into the problem, the versions available in apt for all three of these are outdated by at least a year, possible 3 years for MPV. I’m not sure if this is just a Linux Mint issue but I have noticed that a lot of the software both preinstalled and available in it’s repository, are pretty outdated.

I might try downloading the newer versions of these later. I got MPV working and that’s good enough for me right now.

I got YouTube videos working in MPV. While I have no idea if the way I did it was technically not correct, all I did was download the newest version of yt-dlp from github and created a file name mpv.conf which links to the yt-dlp python file. I was also able to set a preferred resolution using that conf file.

VLC still gives me the same error message.

For MPV, it gives me the following error message:

`mpv https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3e9_l2oGxdw [ytdl_hook] ERROR: [youtube] 3e9_l2oGxdw: Unable to extract uploader id; please report this issue on https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues?q= , filling out the appropriate issue template. Confirm you are on the latest version using yt-dlp -U [ytdl_hook] youtube-dl failed: unexpected error occurred Failed to recognize file format.

Exiting… (Errors when loading file) `

I just tried that and it’s not working for me. MPV just closes itself and VLC gives me an error message. Do I need to do more that just drag and drop the URL?

I think the most notable change is that the main hospital in my hometown was moved to the outskirts of the city. It used to be closer to the center but they moved it, possibly because it’s bigger now and they needed more space to work with.

They also tore down the old courthouse and replaced it with one that, at least from the outside, looks smaller. Some of the supermarkets have also move locations and there are some new stores that have taken the old locations.

Probably none, most people will probably not care and just deal with loosing some of there browsers extensions (it’s not just ad blockers that will be affected) or if they care about loosing ad blockers, they’ll switch to Brave without considering Firefox or any other non-Chromium browsers.

I know that they’re not really “programming languages” but I’ve used a little bit of Batch, HTML and CSS in the past and I also use a little bit of Bash occasionally.

I use/used Bash and Batch mostly for creating desktop shortcuts or for running games/apps with specific parameters.

For HTML and CSS I used to maintain my own website a few years ago through Neocities but I deleted it after about 9 months because I never got any positive feedback from the people who viewed it and I lost interest. I do occasionally think about creating another website under a different name but I have no idea what I’d do with it.

Also, something else that is interesting, there was a developer named DeNA Corp. They were the developers for Final Fantasy Record Keeper*. Despite the fact that the game has been EOL for about 1 and a half years now and the Developer’s account seems to have been deleted, I can still download the game. I don’t think it works anymore but it’s something interesting I thought I’d bring up.

*The link works for me when I’m logged in but it doesn’t work when I’m not logged in, so it might not work for you if you’ve never downloaded that game before.
