  • I mean it was 4 years ago (still 10) and in rough EU area (luckily, nobody but Apple cares enough to not include Swiss) so it was no that bad. But it was a developer device with admin rights, so everything that popped up a notification without good reason got removed.

    Btw, every and each driver vendor installs a background service "for updates" on Windows, that tracks you and occasionally shows ads or flips out to eat all CPU. You can just copy the driver file, uninstall that crap and install the driver file via HWManager. Sorry, i don't remember the file extension, have to google it.

  • Xorg literally has a option to disable tearing: Option "TearFree" "true. If that doesn't work and your compositor neither, fix your video drivers. Lookup Hardware Video Acceleration and similiar on Arch wiki.

  • Generally browsing via VPN is not equal to more privacy. It just tells the websites you're where the server is instead of where you are, while the server might log your full browsing habits even though they promise not to. While legitimate interests, like, ripping you off because you live in a rich country or making sure you're not in a criminal country, makes browsing with VPN a bad experience.

    Instead, you could fake your location at least in Firefox' about:config.

     undefined
        
    // fake geo location (HB Zürich here)
    user_pref("geo.prompt.testing", true);
    user_pref("geo.prompt.testing.allow", true);
    user_pref("geo.provider.testing", true);
    user_pref("geo.provider.network.url", "data:application/json,{"location": {"lat": 47.377, "lng": 8.540}, "accuracy": 2700.0}"");

    Parts of Auguries of Innocence of William Blake

    I find those parts fitting to current society.

    A dog starvd at his Masters Gate
    Predicts the ruin of the State
    A Horse misusd upon the Road
    Calls to Heaven for Human blood

    The Princes Robes & Beggars Rags
    Are Toadstools on the Misers Bags
    A Truth thats told with bad intent
    Beats all the Lies you can invent

    The Bleat the Bark Bellow & Roar
    Are Waves that Beat on Heavens Shore
    The Babe that weeps the Rod beneath
    Writes Revenge in realms of Death
    The Beggars Rags fluttering in Air
    Does to Rags the Heavens tear

    How to backup a bunch of blu-rays?

    Seeing that DVD are slowly going end-of-live and that you can't buy a lot of my childhood favorites in german anymore and streams are compressed-to-death (and DRMed), i had a streak of preservia. Which is why i rip a bunch of discs from the library on Linux (yes, legally not ok, but morally just ease of access, i wouldn't sell them). Since it's only to watch them when nostalgia hits, i want them in a ready-to-watch format, chose AV1 webm for small size. My burner is LibreDrive-ok ootb, meaning makemkv goes automatically in that mode.

    I have the discs for a limited time, so i used to use dvdbackup for DVD and later feed the folder to handbrake for conversion. Now i got a bunch of blu-ray:

    • ripping one takes even longer; whole 25 hours; i don't have the time for the whole LotR series with bonus disks.
    • makemkvcon backup needs only about 2 hours per disk, but the resulting folder is 80 GB big; i have only about 250 GB free space ** and the makemkv backup somehow has no audio stre

    Any Android Qr app (preferably Open Source) that allows decoding via "open with" or share?

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/26048405

    Because, we have here something called "Swiss Qr Bill" (standardized e-bill with Qr code) and some shops send you the bill via email. Would be nice, if i could just tap the qr-image and open with app.

    Any keyboard with undo functionality?

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/21015575

    Hackers Keyboard has that via ctrl+z, but only in horizontal mode. For this only i had my Galaxy S3 in horizontal per default. But can't do that with modern phones' aspect ratio and i'm missing undo since then.

    Any open source host solution for private users?

    Situation: we live in europe, there's PRISM and Privacy Shield and all that, to which selfhosting is the solution. Now, my sister, mostly on Apple, got concerned with all the hacks and privacy violations over the years. She's a tech noob, so i can't really recommend her prism-break.org

    There's a bunch of hosted solutions geared towards small to medium business, like Univention Corporate Server, NethServer, etc.

    Are there similiar bundles for private use, basically Apple cloud alternative? With services like cloud storage, cloud office, media share, maybe chat, videocall?

    Or should i let her wait until i got my box up, VPN her over? I'm only semi-professional tho.
