That was actually preinstalled by IT at my workplace! It’s a pretty nice little archiver. Seconded.

To make the desktop experience bearable: AltTab, Forklift, Rectangle, Ukelele, MonitorControl, Amphetamine, Firefox, Thunderbird, qView and duti to set the latter three up as the defaults.
As a package manager I’m pretty happy with nix-darwin, now I get all the CLI tools there, and what isn’t packaged, like wireshark for example, I get through my nix-controlled homebrew.
Coming from a Linux userland you might want to replace some coreutil packages with their GNU variants. I ran into one case where the GNU grep was much faster than the BSD version preinstalled in macOS for example.
What I haven’t found a good solution to yet is Filesystem support. Both NTFS and ext4 are missing. I currently have a Linux VM just for that. I think Paragon sells a driver, have been meaning to look into it more, but haven’t.
Edit: To be fair to macOS the App called Preview is a pretty good PDF reader in my view.
PS: If you ever need to use dd on macOS, be aware that there are /dev/rdisk handles instead of /dev/disk for the un-buffered access. Its significantly faster for dd shoveling.
PPS: You will probably have to turn off what they call “natural” scroll. macOS inverts the default for some reason.
when I look at Gnome I don’t doubt for a second where I want to be
Yeah me neither, from the other side, lol

Linux@lemmy.ml•AOMedia To Release AV2 Video Codec At Year's End
11·2 months agoAll these naysaysers in the comments here… It’s obvious you have to keep the development pipeline moving. Just because we have one free codec at the stage of hardware support now does not mean the world can stop. There are always multiple codecs out there at various stages of adoption, that’s just normal.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•nobody in webdev knows what graceful degradation is anymoreEnglish
3·4 months agoIt’s either exactly the same, or it’s gracefully degraded. You’re asking for two opposite things at once.
For what it’s worth I support the notion that fundamental functionality should be supported without Javascript, with good old form submissions.
But I also recognise that you can’t get the exact same behaviour without javascript initiated background GETs and POSTs. Easy example: A scrollable map that streams in chunks as you move it.

That’s obviously impossible and wouldn’t be degraded.

Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.detoVTubers@sh.itjust.works•Why I left VShojo - IronmouseEnglish
6·4 months agoI listened to both Mousey and Geega. We know Mousey and the Foundation are being owed money. Geega refused to answer directly if she was owed any as well but said she tried to get positioned for a good outcome when anything happens and mentioned thinking about potentially sending a truck to get merch stock if it comes to it.
To me that sounds like Geega expects VShoujo might enter bankruptcy proceedings. I hope it doesn’t come to that because then not everyone is going to see all their money.
Either way it feels like Vshojo has no clean way back from this. There will probably be an exodus of talents.
I know Geega will be fine she did this indy stuff before and has a high degree of maturity in matters of business.
For Mousey I’m a little worried emotionally. Even though she has a good support system with Connor and the boys and Zen and Mel and many other friends, I feel like she will be taking this very hard.
I’m worried for Henya too. She still seems like she needs the support circle a lot, with the language barrier and everything as well. She was happy to be officially part of something and might be shy if she was an indie despite everyone telling her they can still collab.
Oh and the JP branch! No idea how things work for them. Maybe if they have JP managers something can be split off over there without being corrupted?
Michi and Kuro are also kind of hard cases, as relatively recent previous nijisanji victims.
Mel can probably handle it, she has a strong indy history, though it will be emotionally hard as she was strongly connected to vshoujo early on. And the timing with her move is horrible.
Sydney doesn’t need Vshojo at all, not worried for her.
Froot and Haruka I know the least about among the EN ones, I think they were both personally struggeling already so this is not great. But I have the impression that Froot, Haruka, Zentreya, and Arielle form a pretty good group that can help each other.
Kson will probably be fine too. She has the independant streak anyway as one of the big names to leave holo early on.

today: 1 million sub streamIt’s crazy! Dooby and Nimi have respectable half million and two thirds millions after a few months, and Saba just blows right past. But I suppose it was to be expected based on previous numbers.

2·5 months agoThe company has not released information on whether, or how long, it has spent mapping out or testing the driverless technology on Austin’s streets.
That’s being too nice, the CEO is clearly proud of not mapping cities, as seen in the tweets. The journalist should call it out explicitly. “They are probably not mapping as suggested by the CEO’s public posts.” That’s not too much of a leap.

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Thinking of switching to Surf Fiber internet from the Comcast Xfinity Cable I currently have - any suggestions?English
7·6 months agoI scoured their website and they completely fail to explain what they are actually doing on a technical level. I assume it would probably be a GPON network, just based on the offered speed. Not the best type of fiber connectivity, but probably pretty normal for the USA market.
That said, single mode fiber is absolutely the way forward and if you replace the devices on the end it can scale almost indefinitely. So I would jump on the occasion of having some laid to your house.
They don’t have IPv6 and they don’t offer static IPs which both kind of sucks, but it might be acceptable: https://support.surfinternet.com/surf-broadband-fiber-faqs No data caps is good at least.
Concerning your question about the markings, they spell out their process on this page, it does include marking existing utilities: https://surfinternet.com/fiber-optic-installation-process/

As a native speaker of mountain gibberish I can tell you that’s not ours. Either Austria or maybe Bavaria. Their gibberish seems similar to me sometimes.


The pictures of the people look generated too, so it seems likely the same person would generate text too.
