Re: [Poll] Bluesky vs Mastodon

Those are the only microblogging platforms I do have an account on, and I honestly don't use masto as much as bluesky simply because more of the people I know are on bluesky. It's a lot easier to get into since there's one place where it all is and there's arguments to be made about moderation and ...

Re: FiiO Echo Mini

Also, these are the scripts I use to remove the file prefix stuff. I didn't want to include this in the main "review" post:

#!/bin/bash

for file in "$1"*;
do mv "$file" "${file#$1}";
done;

To remove prefix, do the command: /path/to/file.sh "file prefix - "

for f in *.mp3;
do mv "$f" "${f ...

Re: FiiO Echo Mini

I've had it for a short bit now so I thought I'd give an update!

It's a very cool device, good audio quality coming out of the 3.5mm jack (I haven't tried the bal output cause I don't have anything that plugs in) and as mp3's I can fit my whole music library so far on the device's built-in storage ...

Re: Using arch btw


How did you prepare for installing Arch? Did you just follow the wiki and work with any recommendations there, or did you need to have a list of what exactly you wanted beforehand for anything that needed to be done before you're done installing?


I didn't really have much of a plan, I just knew ...

Re: Using arch btw

It's honestly overall been the most reliable distro I've used, and I weirdly really like getting a very barebones distro where I assemble all the tools I use on it. I think I will still stick with Arch for the forseeable future, as I also want to get into ricing the Niri wayland compositor and some ...

Re: What album is on repeat for you?

For a while it was Neo Wax Bloom but right now I've been listening to Eat Your Dreams by Nelward since I got back into it a few days ago. Midi Bunny and om:eyes are also some I've been listening to a lot lately. Really, anything I own on Bandcamp is probably going around a lot since I started using ...

Tips you would give Linux newbies

Hey everyone hi! I'm working on a little tutorial for switching to Linux since that seems topical and I want to try to do it in a format that's super quick and easy to watch, while not being too overwhelming. I was wondering, what are some comments, thoughts, or tips you would give to someone ...

Re: I blog about nerd stuff


This blog is super neat. Thanks for sharing!

It's a shame Obsidian didn't work out, but I can see how the mind map stuff can be overwhelming. I fully ignored that when I used it. Otherwise it was my favorite text editor. The only reason I moved off of it was because I wanted something web based ...

I blog about nerd stuff

Hey I'm a nerd and blog about nerd stuff, so I thought I'd share it here. My newest post is about markdown editors and I just finished it a few minutes ago. I've also talked about Arch linux and a random game I like . It's very tech focused cause that tends to be what interests me, but it's really ...

Re: I use arch, btw

Guess what?
I DO use Arch now!! (btw...)
I like it, genuinely been treating me much better than most Ubuntu-based ones have been imo. I wrote a lil blog post about Arch just now if you're curious but it's been pretty nice, and though I did have some problems with installing it's honestly been pretty ...
