This program is a client for the very solid Tvheadend TV streaming server. Tvheadend supports pretty much any source you can think of, but is a little more complicated to setup.

Tvheadend is a selfhosted service meant to be run on your own server with your own TV dongles / IPTV channels / etc.

If you only want to watch TV on your PC, doing so with something like Kodi is probably a better idea, as Kodi also supports USB tuners and is simpler to setup (doesn’t require a separate server).

I was pretty neutral towards Ubuntu, up until an automatic system update removed my deb Firefox and replaced it with the snap version, even though I specifically set the apt repo to a higher priority.

The entire reason I left Windows is because I don’t want (for example) Edge shoved down my throat after every update, and yet Ubuntu has gone and done the exact same thing with snaps.

After literal hours of fighting, the only solution I found was to fully disable automatic updates. With Pop OS I have all the benefits of Ubuntu, but I also get a company (System76) that does cool stuff and doesn’t try shoving snaps down my throat.

Yooo this reminds me, I think there was an AITA comment on reddit some time ago about a guy who burned down a Pizza place due to putting the entire bee movie script in a message box.

Edit: I believe it was a comment on an Askreddit thread, but a quick google search appears to not be enough to find it

Edit 2: I think it’s this one, no clue if it actually happened though https://www.reddit.com/r/tifu/comments/bjttfe/tifu_by_ordering_food_online_amd_essentially/

I don’t know if this works for all Ubisoft games, but for Rayman Legends there is a dll that will circumvent the stupid Uplay Launcher and just make it launch normally (see https://steamcommunity.com/app/242550/discussions/0/3647273545686004759/ , comment by murla)

High resolution displays on laptops, SSDs in laptops.

Those are the two I can think of right now. I believe Linus (LTT) talked about this on WAN show not too long ago aswell.

I use gptAssist, which is a webview wrapper for the ChatGPT website.

Oh damn I wasn’t expecting to see a 2023 car with an AUX port

There actually is an EV with engine sounds and a “manual transmission” from Toyota. According to ArsTechnica, it’s supposed to be pretty good:

Proxigram is like bibliogram. You can use one of their public instances

Huh, pretty much every plan in Germany includes infinite call minutes and messages

I’m not an expert either, but the DAC on my Galaxy S10 sounds amazing. It’s just a question of whether manufacturers bother implementing it properly.

OpenStreetMaps editors have satellite maps (ie. Vespucci for Android). I don’t know of any standalone apps, but i never really searched for them either.

Hm, must be a OneUI thing then

Miracast is pretty good, but I don’t think it supports DRM-content. Also it seems to be getting phased out in favor of chromecast.

My Android 12 Samsung phone can show me all duplicate files right in the android storage settings

That’s probably because you are hiding read posts and already read your saved posts.

This could be a long shot but if it’s a Samsung Galaxy Tab S, the battery connector solder joints kinda die after a while, which can either be fixed by reflowing them or by applying pressure (I have a tablet with that issue). You could try pressing on the battery connector and see if it works then.

Most mobile devices won’t work without batteries. The best way to work around this is to supply it with 4.2V (anything between 3V and 4.2V will do) over the battery connector.

In terms of FOSS apps MuPDF is the best one I’ve found. It’s not as good as the drive pdf viewer though, MuPDF is more oriented towards books
