Linux@lemmy.ml•With all this ghostty talk. Am I out of touch for still using terminator all these years?English
41·8 months agoTerminator isn’t supported anymore as far as I remember. A good substitution for it is Tilix. I’d been using the latter for a while but recently I switched to the new default terminal in Fedora (it had weird name that I unable to remember) and Tilling Shell extension for Gnome.

A week ago YouTube forced me to disable an adblock extension on one of my PCs.
And you know what? Experiencing YouTuve with advertising is the best. It completely breaks my mood interrupting a video I’m watching and I often end up just closing the video and going to do something else like coding or doing something useful at home.
So, I’m here recommending disabling your ad blocker if you are prone to procrastinating like me:)

Linux@lemmy.ml•Is using an HDD with an SSD as cache on Linux a good idea?English
2·8 months agoI was using this kind of a setup a long time ago with 120GB SSD and 1TB HDD. I’ve found the overall speedup pretty remarkable. It felt like a 1TB SSD most of the time. So, having a cache drive of around 10% of the main drive seems like a good size to cost compromise. Having a cache 50% size of the basic storage feels like a waste to me.
Why? It’s already 47 now.

Technology@lemmy.world•Bluesky teases paid subscription, Bluesky+, in new mockupEnglish
1·8 months agoBluesky was never meant to be free and open. It’s just marketing and building user base trying to compete with the main Twitter competitor which is Mastodon. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to things for granted. I support Mastodon instance that I use on Patreon and I know what it takes to develop an Open Source software.

Opensource@programming.dev•Screenity - The free and privacy-friendly screen recorderEnglish
1·8 months agoAll open source local screen recorders are as private as want other software running locally. Looks to me like a problem that doesn’t need solving. The project itself could be a good screen recorder though. I just don’t get the selling point.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Are there any practical / production size use case for LFS?English
1·8 months agoFirst of all, LFS is a book. It is intended for learning. The working Linux system you’re ending up with after finishing reading the book is just a result of you performing practicing exercises while reading the book.

Aggregating Matrix, xmpp, irc, and telegram could work for me. But I’d rather did this on my private matrix instance now though.
