That moment when you’re stuck on a part of your code and you figure it out, write it, test it and it just works.
It’s rare, but when it happens, it feels very good.


ffmpeg. It can extract video streams, audio, images. It can encode and decode video and audio, can split video files by chapters, can encode subtitles, etc.
There’s very little that ffmpeg can’t do with video and audio. It also has one of the largest man pages on Linux.


My old Vista machine blue-screened mid-gameplay many years ago, and the computer was completely corrupted (would only boot in Safe Mode).


Both? There’s no real pattern to which I choose for what situation, just whatever I feel like doing in the moment.


Personally, I don’t think there’s are any “best brands” per se as most of them are just cramming shit features like AI and spyware to please their shareholders. Now “best phones”? There are definitely some good ones out there like some Fairphones or others. I’m using a OnePlus Nord, and while I don’t like the company, the phone was affordable and had almost all the features I wanted. LineageOS flashed onto it solved the spyware issue as well.
*Avocado’s constant


You guys have a smell after you sneeze? I just feel pain throughout my body after them sometimes.


A monkey as in an ape or as in a metaphor? I would definitely vote for the former.
0.3 Hamburgers of course!


For me, the price listed is the price listed. If it’s $5, it’s $5. $8 is $8, etc.
This kind of ratio would just confuse me otherwise.


Linux for sure. There isn’t much else I could talk about for a while.
Killswitch Engage, mainly their 2002 and 2006 albums “Alive or Just Breathing” and “As Daylight Days”, respectively.
Aside from that, some of Timecop1983’s albums, mainly “Night Drive” (2018), “Faded Touch” (2021), and “Searching for Tomorrow” (2023).


Lawnchair. An improved Launcher3 that I use in place of Lineage’s built-in launcher.
I don’t really like text-only “simple” launchers as the icons help with quickly figuring out what app does what. Some of the features the AOSP Launcher3 lacks are present in Lawnchair/(mainly more customization over existing features).


Mouse-heavy games like Cities: Skylines, Sims 3, and other management games. Due to a chronic injury, I’m force to mainly play with a controller, and trying to play these games with a controller would be abysmal.


Reading some of these replies, it seems people are only focusing on half of the process of learning an instrument.
Its not just the instrument you need to learn, it’s how to read sheet music as well. Most likely, you’re not going to find the exact coords to play with the delay in between written as seconds for the song you want. Its going to be in the format of sheet music, with the notes and other symbols.
That takes time to learn, like learning a new language. It’s something you need to learn either before or while learning an instrument, and that is something that can put a lot of people off.


I’m sure we’ll have it by 2076 in time for a nuclear winter.


Anyone have names for all the distros in this list? I only know about half of them.
I like to use white on a transparent/glossy color.
Kind of like this (very old pic I know):
