I’m a linux nerd and I jut run stock Fedora. It’s desktop is like a phone UI, so lots of folks are familiar with it.
I then use a wireless keyboard and trackball. T
here are tons of remotes out there,but I don’t have any experience with then. Let me know if you find a good remote though. 😁
At this point just get a rasbperry pi, or some similar device, and run it as a regular computer. Firefox, ublock origin, don’t worry about ads, and turn it into a machine that is capable of soooooooo much more. Hell, any PC will work. Steam Deck, NUC, that old laptop you have laying around? Been running little NUCs on my TVs for years and so happy I don’t have to put up with that nonsense.
Invidious still wotks great for me.
There’s also Piped.
Peertube is also gaining traction and I personally enjoy that, just needs more content creators to stop worrying about chicken and egg and start protecting their content.
As someone that watches Twitch through MPV, I can confirm watching “Ad Playing” is preferable to actually watching an annoying ad.

FYI: I’m linking to their home location, but you can follow them from any Peertube instance. I’m on Tilvids and follow all of these folks from there so I don’t have to jump around to multiple places.
Coukd it also be that he used to work for them and is just familiar with it?
So if the work they used to train it isn’t a copyright violation canthr things it creates be copyrighted? I hate copyright. It doesn’t protect the people it should. Public domain everything that these AI create, companies will stay away, and we support creators directly.
According to OSM, they’re complementary and they kind of work together:
lol are you on my machine? :-D
This is the part that caught my attention:
Privacy features like user-agent reduction, IP reduction, preventing cross-site storage, and fingerprint randomization make it more difficult to distinguish or reidentify individual clients, which is great for privacy, but makes fighting fraud more difficult.
And we do those things, not because we’re fraudsters, but because we’re trying to protect ourselves from the likez of YOU!
YOU did this, change your model and maybe it’ll be better? Oh! But! Mooooooooney! I forgot. Stupid me.
This is the fucking bully telling the nerd that if he doesn’t just HAND OVER his lunch money, that he’ll get beat. It’s YOUR fault! Not OURS!
Edit: Formatting and added about bully
Edit 2: fixing the formatting of the formatting edit. :-D lol
Please NEVER stop asking questions. As other have said, there really are no stupid questions.
If someone else acts like it’s a stupid question, then it’s their issue and not yours. NOTHING is easy until you understand it. The only way to understand it is to ask questions.
I’ve told numerous folks at work that before they do something if they have a question then let me know, because I’d rather answer a question then spend an hour or more fixing something broken.
I ask a LOT of questions. So many questions that when I first started in IT I had a lead that got used to me being in the office 2 hours before him so he knew I’d have a million questions and before he’d even go to his desk he’d stop by mine and ask if I had questions, which I always did.
Please please please please please ASK QUESTIONS.
I have been in IT for 12 years now, I have been on Linux for 16. Before this post I literally was in another thread and asked about BTRFS. I looked it up and it wasn’t making sense to me, so I asked a question. You can NEVER know EVERYTHING. And when you start to get comfortable that’s when something new comes out or you start digging deeper and have more.
Also anyone know if JustALinuxGuy is on Fediverse/Mastodon or a way to reach them about uploading these incredibly instructive videos to Peertube such as TILVids?
Question about the video. I’ve never used btrfs or Timeshift, so maybe this is just a thing with them, when he jumps to the CLI and unmounts, remounts RW, changes the @rootfs @, adds a dir and then mounts the subvolume on /dev/sda2 to /target.
This is totally new to me and I was wondering if anyone had an explanation as to why this was necessary?
I’m used to EXT4 and that’s what I run. But if BTRFS has FINALLY gotten stable and usable and I can take snapshots and roll back to older ones, kind of like branches in ostree, then maybe it’s worth this little extra work.
From what I find subvols are their own isolated branch with their own hierarchy. Is this how they’re meant to be used? Manually creating them and mounting/unmounting?
Good news! Save it for 20 years and read it again! 😁
Where can one find that episode? … FOR A FRIEND OF COURSE!
Pandora has amazing stations that randomize like music. I’ve found lots of new artists this way and love it.
I misinterpreted that part or missed it. With you now. Thank you!
We don’t know they didn’t design and implement it. Happens all the time where you imolement a feature, it works, there’s a regression and you have no clue. 40 min to resolve means it’s there, no way you’re building that completely, testing it, oushing it in that tineframd.
I coukd be wrong.
They also gave me crippling anxiety. Sure showed me!
This is an amazing article for folks interested in the low level IPC dbus. systemd, network manager, and or applications are leveraging dbus and with the new dbusbroker I expect more and more applications leverage it. It’s MASSIVELY confusing at first, but this is such a great article I hope it helps anyone interested in thr low level communications of userspace level linux applications.
