This. I usually use MMDDYYYY when I’m dealing with other (US) people and ISO standard for my own stuff.

A retro gaming podcast is actually probably more my style than the other two podcasts listed. So, have another subscriber…

Thanks for asking something I’d thought of asking but never gotten around to. Also, what’s your podcast OP?

Kiwix isn’t a web browser exactly and doesn’t download web pages the way your browser saves them. It uses a specialized file format, and it can be used to back up an entire site. For instance the kiwix library has an offline copy of wikipedia (no images), but it weighs in at more than 100GB last I looked.

OsmAnd usually.

OSM

Hellraiser? Phantasm?

As much as I’m not terribly fond of the guy, IIRC he’s 36, which makes ‘88’ likely short for 1988, the year he was born.

When reddit started it’s dive down the enshitification hole. As for things I wish it had, a lemmy version of multireddits would be nice, especially since we can end up with multiple communities for the exact same thing here.

Obsidian sync’d with my desktop PC, usually. Though also experimenting with doing the same with Orgro. Both on my phone. If I happen to be in front of my PC, just org-mode in emacs.

Look around on social media? I mean, they’re not exactly subtle, especially now that Elmo runs Xitter.

I may get hate for this, but… I do this a fair bit because I prefer TUIs for a lot of stuff, and also end up doing a lot of things in emacs because I usually have it open anyway…

I don’t think it’s going to change anyone’s mind either way. Love him or hate him, the orange clown is very good at polarizing people, and most have probably long ago made their choice.

Hello fellow fish user.

Disown is. I even have a fish function written so I can do ‘launch foo’ and it’ll run foo, redirect everything to /dev/null (not sure that’s necessary, but doesn’t hurt), and then disowns the process. Mostly because I have a habit of running stuff using whatever terminal I happen to have in front of me.

Vivaldi is pretty nice and was my main browser until the announcement about MV3, but Vivaldi isn’t going to support it beyond whenever google removes MV2 from the source (IIRC, Vivaldi folks expected it around June next year). But I saw the way the wind was blowing and decided to jump ship while I could still do it and take my own sweet time doing so. In retrospect, glad I did. Still miss some features like markdown notes and sidebar web pages, but it’s still better than being buried in ads.

bring back flash

There are really good reasons flash died. If you’re desperate for flash content, use ruffle.

No, but I’ll check them out. Thanks for the suggestion.

Behind the Bastards, Linux Lads, Linux Late Night, The Infinite Monkey Cage (when they do episodes), some spanish stuff for listening practice (mostly Hoy Hablamos), Hack-a-Day, Self-Hosted, and Cory Doctorow…

I usually go with Xfce.

I don’t hate windows, it just annoys me. I’ve run linux in a VM under windows for years and about 2 years ago it annoyed me enough (I think it was something about a patch breaking things badly enough that I had to restore the system) that I said ‘screw it’ and switched the arrangement to linux and the few windows programs I really wanted running in wine. I’ve been skipping back and forth between them since Yggdrasil was a thing, so it wasn’t like it was uncharted territory.

And after hearing some of win11’s BS, I’m glad I did.
