For the first time in a long time I might stick seeing the state of Linux today, especially Plasma 6. I’m eyeing Fedora 40 or Bazzite, tried Kinoite and pretty much everything I need works out of the box, the only thing I need to figure out is OneDrive.
Care to ELI5 for us casuals who did not catch and are missing the obvious?
Maybe yt-dlp might be for the job?
Just a few days ago I downloaded some videos from Vimeo without issues which required sign in to even view
Ubisoft won’t own my money too!
Right off the bat it sit right, thank you
In the same boat, I miss it still, other ones have a worse UI for me and hate the ad slots in the app although I have DNS ad blocking but its still annoying. Do update me if you find a good replacement as we’re looking for the same thing
You may hit the nail on the head, once you get the broom you just breeze past everyhring. The forbidden forest may be the most dense content wise on foot, everything after that does feel more sparse as it was designed with the broom in mind. All in all I still enjoyed the game and got my moneys worth out of it, I did pick it up rather cheap on a sale
Bought Hogwarts Legacy a week or so on a deep discount and I’m enjoying the hell of it. During december I traditionally watch the Harry Potter movies so now I expanded to the game. So far it might be my game of the year since I didn’t try Baldur’s gate 3 yet, I’ll pick that one up on a sale later on. I’m taking my time and explore every nook and cranny in the game. I was hyped for Diablo 4 as a long time devotee but in it’s current form it’s simply not fun and needs quire a rework for me to pick it up sadly. The atmosphere, visuals, music, even combat is spot on but it lost way too much on other fronts. Starfield is another game which I put on hold as I simply didn’t continue the game at some point, will probably resume it after a few more patches.
Right off the top of my head I can think of two:
I’a bit lazy so I just use precompiled apk’s from some good soul from the internet and avoid the hassle alltogether. I roll with a release until something breaks, whick can go for quite some time and then manually just install the new build, works flawlessly. Here’s the source I use
Just a few days ago I pulled an old Sony’s NWZ player as they still have superior audio quality compared to phones. I had to throw it away after 10+ years as the battery died.
Wait I was under the impression that some time ago they lifted the embargo as US-Cuba relations have improved a bit. A man would think raising an embargo would improve relations even more /sigh
This one’s hilarious, but that one’s not gonna work for long as they will axe almost all non-government approved VPNs
Thank you very much for this, finally managed to disable and rebind some remote buttons for apps that Ive already nuked off the TV. Works great with some workarounds.
I similarly made two functions depending on the use case (see comments in code) and saved them in Powershell’s default profile (Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1) so I can invoke them with just one word directly in commandline, works great 👌

Those two are really the only good use cases today for facebook. Insane how Marketplace pretty much overnight almost killed local listing sites. Events I don’t see good alternatives, don’t have much hopes for that one, time will show
