wait should I use systemd-boot (default in EndeavourOS) or grub bootloader?
edit: After a quick search, it looks like it doesn’t really matter. I will go with systemd-boot
Hi, I’m sbird! I like programming and am interested in Astrophysics and all things space. I also have a hobby of photography.

Oh no, internet people are disagreeing!


Noted. But then why does Fedora ship with btrfs then, given that they are catering to a mainstream audience?


Yes, doing a tar file does work! Thanks person!


Also, what flags shoukd I use for the tar command? Would it just be -cvf, or do I need -p (for permissions: would these work after a reinstall?) and -z (for compression)?


Wait, should I use just tar or include -g for compression (.tar vs .tar.gz)


Oh yeah, it looks like using a tar archive would retain symlinks. I will try that once I figure out how to use the tar command


Woah you can crop a blur? That’s pretty neat


Also, on Kdenlive, you can disable most of the windows that you don’t require which is pretty neat.


For me, I found Kdenlive decently intuitive (at least in comparison to “professional” options like davinci resolve. I haven’t ever video edited much and I was able to pick up easily without watching any video tutorials). You add video and audio clips, drag them into the timeline, and use the split tool for cutting. Then you can drag the edge of clips to adjust the length, and you drag an effect from the effects menu. One effect I like to use is the “Freeze” one, so I can freeze a frame of a video for a bit. Pretty neat.


It looks like I need to use the “fill area” option, possibly with centering too.
nvm, read that option wrong. Only scale down it is then w/ keep aspect ratio
Never mind, I was right, I just found that the mogrify command requires the file name to be last


Will use a loop to go through the subdirectories then


The link you mentioned looks quite helpful, thanks! Imagemagick is pretty cool
I don’t have a registered domain for my laptop server (and hence cannot use HTTPS) as I find that I don’t really need it for my use case. Using Tailscale is fine for me if I really need to access it remotely, but I mostly use it for backing up files and images on my local network, and calendars can sync once I get home.
I also didn’t like that on iPhone a majority of the useful settings are buried in dark corners that are difficult to find. Not very helpful at all
Yeah, on Android you use DAV5x or something for syncing, and then another app for calendar (I use Etar). I think DAV5x also acts as an intermediate for smartwatches for calendar notifications, but haven’t verified this, it’s just a hunch of mine. I think it’s probably for ease of development, so the same CalDAV thing doesn’t have to be redone over and over again.
As a previous iPhone user, I liked that it was in settings (I did not like, however, that I wasn’t able to set up Radicale on my iPhone at all since I didn’t have HTTPS with my laptop server. I guess something something security no options for you. If it worked for you that’s great! Working things are good)

How is this different from AppImageManager (which just moves it to an “Applications” directory)? Is this just to make Mac users feel more at home? I mean, I don’t think anyone will be complaining (as long as it’s not forced upon us, the more weird projects the better. If you are complaining than just don’t use it, you’re not the target audience??)
edit: Just read the article, yeah, it is supposed to look like macOS with the dragging to the Applications directory. Pretty neat I guess if somebody is used to macOS!


I feel like the pins would get worse if I had to come up with 15
Fair enough actually. But if you were doing a Computer Science paper and given proper money (e.g. $2.80) you would need to answer real, and given Monopoly money (increments of $50 I believe) you would answer integer. It turns out the real world (no pun intended) is more complicated…
well too late for than I guess. It’s fine though
