Im using quiterss. Its kinda old so you might miss a lot of modern features.

It only takes proper feed URLs like this https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UCuNy42Y5egf07cSiHbF23wg so you gotta get the channel_id from somewhere, but you can also just import an .opml file that you exported from another RSS reader.

Im sure there are better ones but i just need keyword filtering and categories so i have somewhat basic needs.

Im on linux and thats all i know, so if you arent i cant help ya…

You can install mpv from your package manager. This should automatically install yt-dlp as a dependency, but probably not the latest version which is very necessary.

That means you have to get the latest version from the github https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp?tab=readme-ov-file#release-files Just take the first thing in the table.

yt-dlp | Platform-independent zipimport binary. Needs Python (recommended for Linux/BSD)

This yt-dlp file will have to go into your /home/user/.local/bin/ folder, so that it gets used instead of the outdated version installed by your OS when mpv looks for it.

That should be the basic setup. To use it you just do mpv https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvFZjo5PgG0 in your terminal, which will open that video. In my RSS reader i can define a custom browser application, so i just give it mpv as a browser, that way i dont have to open a terminal every time.

If you want to have a button that redirects youtube vids from your browser to mpv, that requires some more tinkering. If you wanna do that i can write another comment.

Or mpv + yt-dlp

Just get rid of the entire shitty website. From rss reader straight to the video.

Maybe in 10 years someone will invent another new language that will solve everything and then all the Rust code will have to be changed again. The cycle continues endlessly lol

You should really just do this without any web application. Just use a background shell script that does the resizing automatically on any image file that you dump into a certain folder. I have similar stuff set up for naming and sorting based on geo location data.

You can even make this work for mobile by having the folder that the script runs on synced to your phone. You take a pic on your phone, it gets synced to your desktop, converted by the script, synced back to your phone.

This way it also works if you want to share large amount of photos (of a trip or event or something)

other OSs are catching up slowly but surely.

Which ones are those? Linux is a rock, it doesnt budge it just slowly but surely does its thing. Thats why people use Linux, because it serves its purpose and it has been doing that for a while without Rust.

I no longer feel safe

Please don’t make assumptions

Yeah wtf is that. If there are reasons to feel unsafe that arent just entirely individual, then you should tell other people that might be in danger. If its entirely individual, then state that so that other people wont be worried about their safety.

Cant steal it, if it is already pro bono :D

Thought so too, but nah. Unless that bot is very intelligent and can read and humorously respond to social media posts by settings its fake domain.

Nah the people doing the pro bono pen testing know. At least for the frontend side and maybe some of the backend.

Horrible advice. Atrociously bad. Dont talk to the cops without consulting a lawyer.

“Several generations” well that is fucking garbage

Suspend != boot

Even in 2010 or earlier waking a pc from suspend would have only taken 2-3 seconds because the whole system state is in RAM not on disk.

Looking forward to seeing if it persists with Linux

I have never had what you described happen in my past 15 years of using linux, i hope you find your way around things, linux is dope once you get used to it.

My PC goes down from 70W idle to 2W when suspended. I also have a master slave power strip, that turns of all my peripherals (speakers, lights, audio interface, etc) when the PC drops below 10W so that saves some extra energy.

It has never occured to me my whole life to not suspend or shut down computers overnight. It wakes up in like 2 seconds why wouldnt you, even if it used only an extra 1W

Good news, but the CMA leadership was sadly just replaced with a Jeff Bezos appointed ex Amazon buddy. Keir Starmer is losing it.

Also windows is getting more and more unusable for productive/commercial/government use, so if they want to keep selling to that market, they will have to make their hardware work on linux too.

0% battery lol

I just wanna be able to easily hack my car tbh. (Lmao “i” dont even have or want one) I want there to be car nerds like with combustion cars but for electric ones. While for normal consumers that might not be important, it is very important for the people that you hire to repair it for you. Right to repair is specifically important for repair shops. Documentation would be cool, but lets start by not putting DRM into cars to actively prevent repair.

Also CalyxOS on FP4 is great, very easy to install and no issues so far.

The ones from smaller company can be, from what i have been told. Its kinda like with knockoff electronics products where you can get a carbon copy or better version of an arduino for a fraction of the price. You might have to look, but they exist. Here they just dont at all. With phones its pretty bad sadly but with other things you can often get dope open hardware manufactured designs of all sorts of stuff.
