They could bother with pulse, but IDK how portable the API for that is, also discord working on Linux is more accidental and this getting fixed might just be because they want it fixed on the Mac side too.

It’s sad to see that discord has waited over 8 years to do this, but the whole thing is soydev code anyways.

From what I can tell they are working on updating their electron version to one that is aware of pipewire, this is the first part of solving the issue (especially for Wayland folks), the second part is just fixing some code in the client to deal with that and then it should be fixed until we deprecate pipewire in 2079. Additionally it would make discord finally act as a native Wayland app instead of being forced in xwayland.

I heard of MakeMKV before, thing is that I generally don’t buy blu-rays because of the downright horrible DRM schemes.

if DRM makes it harder for me to enjoy the content I bought and paid for (this includes limiting me to some lowres garbage even though my system is more than capable of playing HD and FHD video) compared to what I would get if I were to pirate it then it’s a problem of distribution; not one of morality.

you will always have some group that pirates your content no matter what; but if buying gives me a worse product because of artificial restrictions put on it I can’t give any less of a shit.
there’s very few streaming platforms that even give me a decent option (and I don’t even properly own my library; all I get is a license to watch/listen to something, one that could be revoked at any time in the future without me being able to do anything except complain about it).

Most dvd’s should be fine as VLC can play almost any of them.

BD is where things get complicated because of DRM, expect almost none of them to work thanks to big corpo telling us what we can and can’t do with something you bought and paid for (sadly enough streaming doesn’t get much better either)

If japanese kanji show as their Chinese variant make sure you are using the proper font variant. My recommendation is noto-sans-cjk-jp.

Fedora does allow you to set the locale, it doesn’t mention generating them so they might very well already be present You can use https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora/latest/system-administrators-guide/basic-system-configuration/System_Locale_and_Keyboard_Configuration/ to read more than I can tell you here.

sxhkd/swhkd, both support creating these natively and the second one works not just on Wayland, but also X11 and the TTY.

If I can give my thoughts on what I’ve seen in research and linking various factors together.

1. A not insignificant amount of neurodivergent people tend to pursue a career in IT (mainly people with ASD), these people can learn a lot through self study as it tends to align more with their personal interests, at some point through this they may become exposed to Linux and open source and subsequently choose to learn about that.
2. Research has revealed a strong link between ASD and gender dysphoria. People diagnosed with ASD are ~4 times more likely to experience it.
3. Even if you go through gender reassignment, you are still subject to the societal programming associated with your initial gender (which for boys tends to include videogames).

While these 3 facts on their own don’t mean much, I can see how these come together to create an above-average amount of trans women in the IT and Linux spheres and this only gets amplified by stereotypes.

That said, this is mere speculation on my end based on the things I mentioned above, I am sure it plays a role; but I cannot be sure as to how significant that is in the grand scheme of things.

I love how musk is trying to make X the everything app all on his centralized network, and here we are building a decentralized everything network with dozens of open platforms and good 3rd party clients outpacing whatever musk is trying to cook.

I’ve been using when, it’s very simple; but so are my needs for a calendar.

Go to the site, right click on the url bar and at the bottom there’s the option.

Any site that implements open search can be added.

Then it might be one of those scripts

You can save posts on Lemmy, for me it’s a bookmark icon (I use liftoff) they will show up in your bookmarks.

I love this feature as a nice “come back to this later” button

Man, that’s just ice cold

No problem, I was looking for this after I tried using fish seriously for a month and it was the only thing I needed

you should be able to reconfigure the plugin, I have it set to pull from history first and after that look for standard command completion using the following:

ZSH_AUTOSUGGEST_STRATEGY=(history completion)

important is that you put this BEFORE sourcing the plugin.

the github should carry more information on how to configure this plugin.

PS: I use all of 4 plugins (fzf-tab-bin, zsh-autosuggestions, zsh-syntax-highlighting, zsh-history-substring-search) and I have a better shell in zsh than I will ever have in fish, I don’t need anything more fancy and oh-my-zsh is hell to work with compared to a simple .zshrc I handrolled because it’s got any other shell I know beat (yes I know of nushell and it is cool, but it’s even less posix than fish). also, once you’re done run zcompile .zshrc, you won’t regret it.

Sort of, that said I rarely pull open qpwgraph (and I didn’t configure wireplumber yet either) and it’s been pretty ok for me.

Also remember that all these nodes correspond to some input or output stream (good chance it might be gstreamer or ffmpeg doing this) and from what I think is happening is that these are created by these programs through the pipewire API or the one from the other audio servers it’s faking and wireplumber merely hides them using some flag.

That said, I have not dug I to the pipewire documentation so this is a guess on my part.

Pipewire is the audio server

Wireplumber manages your interfaces and their connections automatically

Qpwgraph let’s you view and modify these interfaces and connections manually

Bot wireplumber and qpwgraph talk to pipewire to change the state of your interfaces, but they are unaware of each other. Theoretically this means you can forgo either qpwgraph or wireplumber, but you don’t really want to go without wireplumber as that would mean you have to configure every interface and connection manually.

They happen because the font is not patched property, your best bet is getting the nerd fonts and trying those, popular fonts will generally look nicer.

So do i

Look into X11 forwarding if the guest uses X11 (xwayland will happily play along if you use waykand on the host) or try something like way pipe if you want a full Wayland solution. Both will display an app over network as if it was running locally, but they do require a bit of setup with ssh.

You may also be able to trick RDP into displaying one app remotely like winapps does if you don’t want to deal with ssh.
