We need to start putting guardrails on hn to not allow those pointless comments complaining about usage of peepee poop

Could you stop evacuating your bladder and bowels? Puuuuhfleas


You're just a cost of acquisition.

I recall using litestep back in the 9x days. Loved this feature (virtual desktops.)

Plus the wharfs were cool, imo.


3. They should rename it LIMP. Linux ....


Like inducing a 'god' experience?


A small dose of DXM boosts the effectiveness of Wellbutrin by 10x or so. It's not an antidepressant itself. It's a dissociative and cough suppressant.


This is incorrect. DXM is the active ingredient in Auvelity. Bupropion is included because it inhibits the enzyme that breaks down DXM quickly. The bupropion boosts the effectiveness of DXM as the primary antidepressant, NOT the other way around like you're suggesting.


PhotoPea works in any browser on any platform.

Also you might prefer gimpshop(or whatever the latest PS-ified gimp is these days), as the default hotkeys in gimp are shit. Ctrl, shift, and alt have universal contexts beyond Adobe products that gimp completely ignores.

Just like Macs and the stupid command button. And don't even think of remapping, say the clipboard, to use Ctrl. Many apps just won't honor it. Because that would just make too much sense.


PhotoPea does not support colour profiles - browser limitations. Also GPU acceleration is limited and does not work with large PSD/PSB files. No camera RAW, no advanced selection and healing tools. No plugins.

PhotoPea might work for casual editing. That's not why I use Adobe.


I think the web page delayed loading is often server-side these days trying to detect bots. Especially with a dynamic IP.... You'll generally be fine after that first detection flags you as human. Also this seems to affect firefox moreso than some other browsers, but that's subjective.

Also, if you're familiar with sysinternals suite for Windows there's a Linux equivalent to all the tools with nice GUIs. So you should be able to track down most process-caused performance issues fairly easily without knowing all the appropriate CLI commands.


I would speculate myself instead the more likely thing is related to:

- dns cache configuration

- wlan power saving which is kind of aggressive since Linux has had some power management issues

It's really why I go for a minimal distro, debian with xfce. There's not many components, they're not "tuned", and I can just kinda research any issues myself and find what works. Usually there's some pretty big gaps (missing a whole component, wildly malfunctioning, high resource utilization) and then it's easy to figure out. There's not much code, or really hard scripts to understand. Just maybe enable debug on the service. Learn where the developers put diagnostics (about:support is a godsend). You get to architect your hardware's success and get a rock-solid system. But yeah, if it's weird it might be weird for a while, haha.

For my setup I think the last few lessons were like:

- use gamescope for X11 Wine/Proton (huge.)

- Firefox profile reset to fix hardware decoding (followed some good guides and some bad guides)

- to make changes use the same git tag as your distro so the deps are easily in-reach.

My favorite new discovery for debian in particular is their extensive functional docs. https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/

absolutely adore this.


As a YouTube app user, these complaints are also part of the core app experience. Notifications often never land, especially if you're _trying to_ follow someone's live streams. Even if you're a mod... (Sometimes appearing hours after the live or even the next day or never.)

It'll even randomly drop subscriptions. Forcing the user to resubscribe.

Thanks vibe coding?


MOND reduces but doesn't eliminate the need for dark matter.
