Heh, made me smile. Thank you. :3
This is not even mental gymnastics at that point.
Actually I was searching about that Youtube one that I saw long ago but couldn't find again. Thank you for these. Especially for awesome-mpv.
I haven't seen something like this but I've seen someone replicated Youtube UI, including thumbnail previews on seekbar. I've also seen some quite simple and clear UIs as well. mpv has so many capabilities, I probably don't know about 95% of them.
I'm pretty sure mpv's UI can turn into this. I've seen some crazy things.
Kinda looks like a whale's mouth.
I'll re-member you.
Tabbies are my favourite too!
I wish but sadly no. This happened far from my home.
That's also fine! It's a smaller pool but still a cat chooses you.
Not this time but close enough, still in Turkey.
Thanks! Cat distribution system is working.
It was cold. This stray kitty chose me and napped for half an hour.
Disclaimer: The scar has nothing to do with this gentle kitty.

The ultimate goal is to gather all 4 types of cards to top right empty slots from the smallest card to biggest card (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, J, Q, K).
You pull from the main deck 1 or 3 at a time (1 is easier) and you can only put that card under a bigger one. Also only K cards can be placed on a completely emptied out slots under. Sorting should be opposite colour too (If you pull 10 black, you can only place it under J red). Black if red, red if black.
I hope I was clear.
Seems nice, added to my wishlist. Thanks for the heads up!
Edit: It's also available on GOG, which is better.
Thanks Satan.
It also occasionally generates one where it can’t determine whether the game is solvable or not, which is probably due to search space limitations. I’ve won a couple of those, but they’re risky to start in the first place!
I kinda like those. I've also won couple of them and one of them was quite close to a win and it was always unwinnable at the very last parts (I tried the same seed 3-4 times).
Yeah, I get the logic and with the current system it might cause a long start if it runs into a bad string since it should also skip undeterminable games. Maybe someone should rewrite it in Rust. /j
I partially agree. From the start, it should be solvable. But if it can be solvable in a very certain way, I'm fine with it. I think a good puzzle should be at least solvable even if it was badly designed.
Windows 7 solitaire was good, though it was kinda easy IIRC.
Thanks Solver
First time seeing this in KPatience. The game shouldn't even start if it isn't solvable though but it's something.
I use bookmarks as well and yes it keeps getting worse. In the foreseeable future, we'll have to find websites like an arranged marriage.

Oh no!
Look at these sponsors! I wouldn't use Ladybird in 1750 BC.
Can I dirty-install "MicroG for LineageOS" ROM over regular LineageOS?
I have a Redmi Note 9 (merlinx) and currently have LineageOS 20 (which is the last official ROM). It's generally fine but I have some problems with a couple apps, so I need MicroG to fix this. I don't want to go bunch of hoops to install it on my current system if possible. Would dirty-installing the same ROM with MicroG pre-installed applicable? Or do I need a clean install if I want to go that way?
Edit: It seems it's not so feasible. I guess I'll just do clean install.
How to solve wi-fi problem on Macbook Air mid 2013?
cross-posted from: https://programming.dev/post/38558693
We have a Macbook Air mid 2013 and no matter what distro I tried, making wi-fi work was pain due to Broadcom drivers and not having ethernet port. Basically had to install the drivers via phone tethering.
However, probably because of the drivers, there are certain problems like disconnecting out of blue or really slow connection or cannot reconnect unless reboot the PC.
So I want to ask, if you have this Macbook and have Linux installed, which distro you're using it with? How is it?
Recently I installed Bazzite on a home computer and printers, Xbox controller, iPhone connection, everything the owners need worked out of the box. I'm wondering, would it also work fine with this Macbook too?
Edit: I added these to a blocklist, which I created here >> /etc/modprobe.d/broadcom-wl.conf
This is for BCM4360 adapter.

Is there a task scheduler on GNOME?
Apparently gnome-schedule is quite old and unmaintained. I want to help a friend with this and it shouldn't be a commandline option, has to be GUI. Something like kcron, task scheduler on KDE.
What Steam does differently than Lutris?
Hi there!
I have a situation about a game that has problems with running via Steam but the same binaries run fine via Lutris.
ProtonDB page of the said game: https://www.protondb.com/app/214590 (Fairy Bloom Freesia)
I tried it years ago, probably around Proton 4-2 times, and I was getting the very same error I get today if I run the game from Steam.
DirectX error: StrecthRect is invalid call
I don't know what Steam does differently but in the meantime it causes this error. Probably it's game's own problem at some circumstances (regarding it's a custom Japanese engine) and what Steam does triggers this error. I'm using Glorious Eggroll's Proton 10-15 on both Steam and Lutris, that's why I think it's related to Steam client itself.
Also tried WINE and if I run the game with regular WINE from my system, the performance would be really poor, but at least it runs.
So, I'm trying to understand what would be the difference. Do we know what might Steam client does behind the doors?
Can I upgrade my server directly from Debian 11 to 13 without problems?
Or should I go 11 > 12 > 13?
Edit: Thanks for all the replies. I asked this out of laziness and apparently trying this is not a lazy thing to do. I'm not Bilbo Baggins seeking an adventure. Will go with 11 > 12 > 13 way, though might stay at 12 for a while at this point. You know, lazy. :)
Edit 2: Updated to 12. Haven't checked all the configs yet but so far so good, at least every function I expect works. If I finish this checking sequence, I might go for 13 soon too.
Edit 3: Updated to 13 as well. It actually took shorter than updating from 11 to 12. Though for some reason Jellyfin is marked as obsolete, however it works and I couldn't care less. My things are working and hopefully I won't see problems. If I do, I'll check them one by one at this point since it's a small home server.
Gotta add this: I had 325 packages on Debian 11, and now I have 450 packages on Debian 13. Some of them are marked as obsolete but must review them one by one. I feel like this upgrade process
Do you want Control Ultimate Edition for 90% off? -Nah, I'll just get HoMM 3 at full price.
I know, I'm doing this again but it's just hilarious at this point.
I've been on GOG for more than a decade and HoMM 3 is always on bestsellers
Window decoration theme like Bismuth for KDE
Hi,
I'm searching for a window decoration theme that only has a frame, no buttons or anything more. Something like what Bismuth had. The one I pulled from AUR works on my Arch system (even though it's not supported for Plasma 6) but I want to install this on my Thinkpad that has Aurora Linux. But since I only want the window decoration part, any theme like this would work for me.
Edit: Thanks to Remus86, I was able to install Bismuth.
Though, because of the nature of immutable, it was tough. I had to use rpm-ostree a lot, which Aurora devs don't recommend to use. I had to install

Just wanted to share my yt-dlp alias
I'm sure some of you already using it like this but if not, this could be useful for you.
It creates a directory with the channel's name, create sub-directories with the playlist name, it gives them a number and put them in an order, it can continue to download if you have to cancel it midway.
You can modify it to your needs.
Add this to your ~/.bashrc or your favourite shell config.
alias yt='yt-dlp --yes-playlist --no-overwrites --download-archive ~/Downloads/yt-dlp/archive.txt -f "bestvideo[height<=1080]+bestaudio/best[height<=1080]" -o "~/Downloads/yt-dlp/%(uploader)s/%(playlist_title,single_playlist)s/%(playlist_index,00)s - %(title)s - [%(id)s].%(ext)s"'
You can even limit the download speed by adding this parameter: --limit-rate 640K This example is for 5 Mb/s.

I cannot see my own posts created on hidden communities
Hi!
Before opening a bug report, this seemed to be a better option.
Anyway, my instance (currently on version BE: 0.19.5) hid some communities so naturally they won't be seen even on searches unless one purposefully subscribed to them. While I'm fine with this decision, there is a problem here with my case:
I can subscribe to these communities as well as post to them. However, I cannot see my own posts to these communities when I visit my profile. If I visit my profile from another instance (that didn't hid these communities), I can see my posts like this. But not from my instance.
An admin suggested that this may be a bug. What do you think about this?
Do you know an open source TV app for Android TV so Google cannot push its shit?
I basically gave up on finding a custom ROM for this TV so I'm looking for alternative TV apps to at least change the default app. Do you know if there is an app like this exist? It should work with satellite, I'm not looking for IPTV or streaming services, just something that supports plain satellite TV.
Edit: Currently experimenting with KODI, no luck yet though. If you also have suggestions regarding to it, I'm all ears.
Edit 2: KODI (and so Jellyfin, Plex etc.) needs a backend server for Live TV so add-ons alone won't work. According to KODI Wiki, currently there are no backends that work on Android. I also tried Google's older app called Live Channels but Google doesn't let you to run it because it's old more useful.
Edit 3: I at least blocked all many of those ad streaming domains on pi-hole. Here is the regex I added to my blacklist. Maybe it will be useful for another poor soul who bought TCL TV.
