Wireless devices let me use 2 different tables and an armchair+TV. That would simply not be an option otherwise.
The benefits of going wireless vastly outweigh an occasional connection annoyance to me. And worst case I can still plug them in.
I use rustdesk for remote desktop. Screen sharing is usually on zoom as it’s what my workplace uses.
Physical connectivity comes courtesy from an RJ45 socket, a pair of USB-A ports, a sole USB-C connector, a microSD slot, and an HDMI connection
wasn’t expecting that
ah my skip is 30s and I’ve only seen 2 ads in a row, max
IME ad times are pretty consistent by podcast feed when they’re artificially inserted like that.
When we’re talking product promotions during the podcast recording, they’re only consistent for a given episode, but that’s what sponsorblock is for.
damn, 8 times? Are your ads too long or is your skip too short?
video controls change when an ad is playing on YT, which would be a pretty reliable indicator for an extension running at the client side. But that’s more a UBO issue than sponsorblock when it comes to YouTube, as I’m not sure sponsorblock could do anything if the controls are frozen.
yeah, a few weeks ago I first heard a random US insurance ad or some crap like that, in English, when listening to a podcast from a different country. It took me a few seconds to realize what was going on.
We need Sponsorblock for podcasts

kali is for posers, professionals use hannah montana
but modal editing is exactly what I don’t like about vim
I knew she was cheating on me
they do
I’ve used plenty of sshfs a few years ago, but x11 forwarding is a compromise. The latency makes it painful to work with for more than a few minutes.
Same, ranger was painfully slow at times. For some reason it would take multiple seconds to start on a few machines I connected it to.
I can’t believe no one mentioned this, but: remote access.
I spend most of my day connected to machines via SSH and yazi offers a great UX with file previews and all. Using kitty I even get image previews in the terminal.

I’m afraid if we discourage companies from adopting open source we’ll end up with even more closed source garbage.
There are industry sectors where closed source is the norm, and it just leads to more vendor lock-in and less standardization and interop.
I’m a bit young to say for sure, but I believe closed source was the norm in the software world 20-30 years ago and openness was stigmatized. I certainly don’t want to live in that world.
it does work though, on windows i can see ads and intrusive crap all the time. Linux distros don’t bother you at all, it’s like linux is not even trying at this point.
it’s interesting they call it windows subsystem for linux
- oh, so it’s a subsystem for Linux?
- no, it’s a windows subsystem
- …for Linux?
- kind of, I guess
