Until it finally broke and it was too late…

Probably people in Korea or even nProtect themselves.

That said, fixing a bug related to software incompatibility with Wine might also benefit other applications (since Wine may behave as “expected” as it runs on Windows). This is why they even tested Audacity to run on Wine even that a native Linux version is available.

It’s easier to be more consistent with a immersion brewing method compared to percolation. The only variable in immersion brewing would be grind size and water temperature.

Not everyone can discern the difference between a 96KHz FLAC and 256kbps AAC. I can’t. But I still can (barely) tell the difference between 256kbps AAC, and 96kbps AAC.

But I can tell if a song was well-engineered or a mess.

I believe those who can’t discern the difference between bitrates (especially on high bitrates), but have the appreciation for good music, good mixing, and good mastering, can still be considered audiophile.

YouTube Music Premium offers AAC 256kbps as the highest quality.

Format ID 141: gist.github.com/…/34d47c65b1d28829bb17c24c04a0096…

Opus 128 is only for the audio of YouTube videos. Not YouTube Music.

AAC 256 should be at least on par with MP3 320 CBR, might also be on par with ogg vorbis at the same bitrate

Debian usually backports security fixes to older versions, so you may wanna check to Debian if they have an updated version of the package with the security fix.

This can be done by taking the CVE number related to this vulnerability and look at the package changelog.

Should I move to Docker?

I’m a retired Unix admin. It was my job from the early '90s until the mid '10s. I’ve kept somewhat current ever since by running various machines at home. So far I’ve managed to avoid using Docker at home even though I have a decent understanding of how it works - I stopped being a sysadmin in the mid '10s, I still worked...

ARNiM ,

There is even a tool to convert Docker Run commands to a Docker Compose file :)

Such as this one hosted by Opnxng:

I think Cloudflare DNS works too and it’s free.

For something like movies or shows you would only just need to run it once and store it in .srt

Full circle.

As most have pointed, the “always 2x” rule doesn’t have that much of relevance in 2023 as most computers now has more than 4GB of RAM. I would only use that much of a swap when using a low hardware.

For desktop, I would never go swapless, though. In the event of memory pressure, swap would still help in that situation so that OOM Killer do not kick off and unintentionally kill my working process. Plus it helps that Linux can move the least used data to the swap and use the RAM for filesystem cache.

So my rule of thumb, for desktop: If RAM < 8GB: Swap == 2x RAM If RAM => 8GB: Swap == 1x RAM

For servers, I think it depends on the workload. I keep a small amount, like probably 50% of RAM or less. But for stuff like Redis, it doesn’t make sense to have swap. You want to ensure that everything is in the memory.

Good ELI5 answer. The “push” to do good comes from the feeling of thankfulness that you don’t have to take a death penalty from a wrongdoing, someone else is taking it instead.

Another take: Imagine when a friend takes you for a dinner treat, you’d be thankful for them that they paid for your food (and the food is not necessarily free, someone actually paid for the food). You’d at least try to be nice to him, as a gesture of thankfulness, and you wouldn’t want hurt their feeling after they took you for a treat. Deliberately or not.
