in my case if I use mkv it starts transcoding and mp4 works fine on every device (desktop, android app, Chromecast, browser)
that surely is the issue. you can convert it to mp4 with ffmpeg:
ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c copy output.mp4
If you want to keep subtitles this will probably work:
ffmpeg -i input.mkv -map 0 -c copy -c:s mov_text output.mp4
you could double check the codec with mediainfo. also check it is mp4.
orgmode with neovim on PC and orgzly on phone. syncing with syncthing
Edit: I’m actually using orgzly revived, a community maintained version of orgzly, since orgzly is no longer mantained
For anyone who is interested in note taking in your everyday editor like vim or emacs, orgmode is an emacs tool (in neovim there is a clone plugin) for note taking, todos, agendas, etc. It uses a format similar to markdown, and a good part is that with the orgzly app you receive notifications for your events. So basically you can use orgmode as a calendar as well (I do!).
I don’t understand the nuclear energy hate. Of the nonrenewables it is the cleanest, and it is not always possible to run 100% renewable, (they depend on natural factors such as sun or wind), while nuclear is constant and always producing. Look at Germany and how it is polluting using gas and fossiles, it would be a million times better it they used nuclear energy.
why not just evaluate the apps themselves
looks more like a KDE issue rather than a flatpak issue
“Objectively”: Proceeds to give his opinion
GIMP is shipped by default with Linux distros
This isn’t true for most distros. Might be for some specific distro, but most distros I’ve used don’t come with GIMP pre installed.
Nvidia and Wayland work when used in compatible desktop environments. GNOME and KDE Plasma are supported. Something like sway, for exapmle, doesn’t support Nvidia.
Before switching to Linux I used to think: “Linux users really use the terminal to install apps?? So archaic”. Now I can’t be more grateful of being able to install everything from the terminal.
Using nvidia with Arch is super simple. Just select the nvidia proprietary drivers during installation (archinstall), and it’s done. It is great for gaming, steam is available in the multilib repository (enable it during the installation with archinstall). It is pretty much ready to go after the installation. You might have heard that it is super hard to install, but that is if you install it manually (without archinstall). Haven’t tried suse myself, so I can’t talk about it, but I can definitely recommend Arch, not only for gaming but for daily driving as well. Having the AUR spared me the headaches I had back when I used mint and fedora, and programs weren’t available in the distro repository.
If you have free time and you are willing to spend it in compiling all your programs
that’s weird. I just opened discord and deleted my phone number without any issues, just had to type password and 2fa and done. I did it in the android app btw.
If you want microsoft word just use windows. There’s no sense in a “Piracy-based” distro, what would it be? Having wine and qbittorrent pre installed?
for simplicity I think sxiv supports ebooks
Impossible. Everybody I know uses WhatsApp.
I use keepassxc topt
