Hi, I’m Shauna! I’m a 37 year old transgender woman from Ontario, Canada. I’m also a Linux enthusiast, and a Web Developer by trade. Huge Star Trek fan, huge Soulsborne fan, and all-around huge nerd.
I think upgrading the RAM as you mentioned is going to make a big difference. While the physical RAM might be soldered to the motherboard, you could buy a fairly cheap SD card or USB and set the system up to use that as virtual memory. It won’t be as fast as actual RAM but it might help and large SD cards are honestly really cheap these days.
If you like what’s on offer by Spotify, there’s a free alternative that I like called Spotube. It uses your Spotify account for recommendations but then uses YouTube’s (and YouTube Music’s) backend to get the songs. You can also change the backend use a Piped instance instead of YouTube.
The thing about time is that any likely division of an hour that you’d like, there’s an easy and even division. /2 = 30, /3 = 20, /4 = 15, /5 = 12, /6 =10, /10 = 6 and vice versa.
It’s pretty easy to get in the mind state of thinking a half hour is 30 minutes, or more specifically you can think 1.5 hours * 60 minutes / hour. The hours cancel out and you get 90 minutes.
Choosing to love Jesus makes that man happy, and that’s great as long as he doesn’t try to ruin other people’s fun. Why is that so hard for some people to understand? Just live your own life and leave other people alone.
I wonder if others have some favourite posters that you they quite often?
For me, it’s @Stamets and ThePicardManuever but I’ve noticed a couple other prominent posters lately although their names haven’t stuck for me just yet.
It’s not the color, it’s the lack of outline around the text. You can put any color text on anything and as long as it has a contrasting outline color then it’s perfectly readable.
It’s funny, I learned recently that you don’t have to mash the button, you can just hold it down, but I still don’t trust it and mash anyway.
Epic Games hasn’t done it much lately, but when they first launched they paid a few big games to be Epic Games Store exclusives which is obviously anti-consumer behaviour. That and they’re owned by China, so the chances of your data being funneled out to China is practically 100%. Also, Epic has historically been critical of gaming on Linux with the CEO going so far as to say that Linux users are a bunch of whiners and that Epic will never support Linux just to spite them. A very immature response to say the least.
Unfortunately, the guy in this video is a bigoted asshole. I’m truly confused as to how you can be a huge Star Trek fan and still be a bigot, but please don’t support him in any way.
I haven’t seen anyone mention it yet, but a reason might be that providing an API is cheaper than web scraping.
If people really want access to your data, they can just scrape your website, but that requires loading all the data through the website itself which requires loading millions or billions of video thumbnails, comments, descriptions, recommendations, etc. It’s much cheaper for them to send a JSON through an API, even though they might know that some people are trying to undermine them by using that data to circumvent their advertising.
