Yeah it definitely varies per person, and I think you can even train for it somewhat.

I used to play a lot of guitar hero, and I think this improved my visual “latency” a lot, to the point where I could definitely tell when something was visually 5-10ms out of sync (in the case of guitar hero, when you strum the bar vs when the note lines up with the strikeline).

On grapheneos it’s a setting, 18 hours by default I believe, but adjustable from 10 minutes to 72 hours.

Absolutely, will try when I run into issues again!

Looks like it’s inspired by Solarized to me. I kinda like it actually, much better than black text on white.

I thought for a long time it was actually spelled jewelery, just because I’d only ever heard people pronounce it wrong and i guess never saw it written down.

They still get DDOS’ed now, but Cloudflare stops it before it can reach their own servers.

I was recently comparing some phone plans and found that nowadays, you mostly just pay the actual price of the device, plus the normal subscription costs, no interest or anything.

Got a Pixel 8 Pro from Odido (awful service btw, would not go with them again). The device costs me 30 euros per month, for 2 years, which comes out to 720 euros at the end. That’s actually cheaper than the normal resale price of ~870 (average according to Tweakers).

Actually thinking about it now, I wonder what the catch is. That kinda seems too good to be true.

I mean you don’t have to use Gnome with debian, iirc they have options for KDE plasma and xfce among others as well.

I’m dutch and grew up in the 2000’s, I still remember boiled brussel sprouts tasting super bitter and awful. Haven’t really tried them since I cook my own meals though.

Why does speed even matter this much for a program most people only run once to show off their new builds? Or do these programs have some other purpose than printing system specs?

I have experienced the delayed scrolling, mostly on cheaper phones.

But that’s mostly because i’m used to phones having 120+hz screens now, going back to a 60hz screen does feel a bit sluggish, which is especially noticeable on a phone where you’re physically touching the thing. I think it might also have something to do with the cheaper touch matrixes, which may have a lower polling rate as well.

Aren’t you supposed to not kill cockroaches? i thought it’d attract more or something

That one seems to only do remote streaming over network. Droidcam can be used over a USB connection as well, which works much more reliably (than the wireless version of droidcam, at least) in my experience.

Your script uses gh, which I think is the github cli, to clone a repository.

It would be easier for most people to just do a git clone git@github.com:umlaeute/v4l2loopback (or git clone https://github.com/umlaeute/v4l2loopback). I don’t really understand why you’d use gh for something as simple as a clone tbh.

I mean I’m not worried about anything, I’m just not going to buy it.

I’m pretty sure I have, but I’ll try again to be sure

But for some reason Firefox doesn’t do this properly, so it offers to or just outright restores all my pages on startup. I’ve never been able to make it stop doing that.

Ahh I thought they were just making a service for the normal spotify application, yeah in that case it makes sense to use a service. Didn’t know spotifyd is something else

(I don’t like this kind of data collection either fwiw, not trying to defend them or anything)

On Android at least, device id’s are unique per app, and reset when you reset your phone to factory. In theory they can’t use this data to cross-track you personally, since every service that uses a device id has a different one for the same user.

They can probably still build up a pretty accurate profile of you based on other data they collect though.

If you just want it to auto-start at login, you could create a symlink from the .desktop file to ~/.config/autostart.

Something like ln ~/.local/applications/spotify.desktop ~/.config/autostart (or ln /usr/share/applications/spotify.desktop ~/.config/autostart if that’s where it installed to).

I believe most DE’s will pick this up automatically.
