Unsolicited photography tip: your phone camera’s sensor is 4:3. Setting the aspect ratio to anything else crops the image and can make fitting subjects that aren’t tall and skinny in the frame difficult.
This is true even if the phone calls a different aspect ratio “full”.
I think Samsung put out a couple smartphones about a decade ago with 16:9 sensors, but otherwise phone cameras are almost universally 4:3. Nothing wrong with cropping intentionally of course, but I see a whole lot of images that appear to be cropped accidentally.
Random unsolicited photography tip: your phone camera’s aspect ratio is 4:3. Setting it to something else crops the image, even if that something else is misleadingly called “full”.
It looks like you had to back up to fit the whole poster in the frame, thereby including a bunch of carpet and ceiling. It would be easier to frame uncropped.
Kind of weird it wasn’t included for awhile.
A long while starting with the Fenix rewrite in 2020. What’s bizarre is they took a very tightly controlled approach to rolling out extensions instead of developing in the open and giving users the option to choose for themselves whether to use less stable features or untested extensions.
It was kind of bizarre; the attitude is more what I’d expect from Apple than an open source project. There was very little communication to the public about their reasoning, and what they did offer was pretty unsatisfying.
When Microsoft first proposed something like that a couple decades ago, it was widely seen as the nightmarish corporate power grab it was. Even mainstream, non-techy publications were critical.
I believe this is how the higher levels of Android’s Play Integrity system work.
It is.
How the fuck did this become acceptable?
That’s a little less surprising to me. Organizations are likely to pick competing communication software if Teams is not available to everyone. Web browsers are generally interoperable after Microsoft lost the war to popularize one that wasn’t.
I’m pretty neutral about the mere existence of software I’m not interested in using.
Microsoft Edge was a recent surprise. It’s surprising both that Microsoft would create it and that any Linux users would run it. Since its Chromium based, there should be no need for developers to test Edge separately.
The behavior you’re describing does not sound like addiction. People with an addiction to a drug feel compelled to use the drug and become distressed if the drug is unavailable.
This is also not binge drinking by any commonly-used definition. Two pints of beer a day is generally considered moderate drinking, and you’re not doing it every day, only when beer is on sale. Research does seem to be converging on drinking alcohol at all being bad for your health, however the effect size for occasional moderate drinking is small enough that it has been difficult to measure.
What you are describing is impulsive behavior. When you see beer on sale, you can’t resist taking advantage of the offer. When you have beer, you drink it faster than you meant to. If you think about other areas of your life, can you find more examples where you struggle with impulse control?
You can now perform actions like “clear history,” “open downloads,” or “take a screenshot” just by typing into the address bar.
They’ve reinvented the command line.
That seems likely to work.

Android doesn’t handle users and groups like standard Linux, but the user account assigned to Termux is not a member of the camera group.
There is no such thing as an unedited RAW file displayed on a screen. Editor/viewer software will do one of three things to render a RAW to the screen:
Here it is as a style:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

My default style (in pipeline order) is:
This will almost always produce an acceptable image without any manual intervention. I tend to tweak things, but I don’t usually need to. Optional extras I’ll add are:
Federation doesn’t inherently require large amounts of memory. Fundamentally, it’s a matter of selecting a list of unique servers (likely tens, maybe hundreds) from a larger set of followers (likely hundreds, maybe thousands) and sending an HTTP request to each when there’s a new post. There’s a speed/size tradeoff for how many to send in parallel, but it’s not a resource-intensive operation.
Growth beyond a few tens of megabytes was a bug in Writefreely, which is a likely-suitable option several comments here recommended.
I’d put it farther removed from the technical side than that; dreadbeef is thinking like a manager. OP might be better off paying a third party $3/month to handle the details and host a heavyweight, full-featured blog for them, but that’s not what they asked for.
This is selfhosted, which I think implies a desire to self-host things even if it might seem a wiser use of resources to do something else.
I’ve used Linux as my primary OS for many years, but I keep a copy of Windows on my current laptop for gaming. I know the gaming story on Linux is pretty good now, but having to hibernate and reboot is enough of a barrier to launching a game that it helps me stay more productive.
At home, my laptop sits on a stand with great airflow, but when trying to play The Witcher 3 on a desk while traveling, it overheated and throttled to the point it wasn’t playable. On Linux, the thinkpad_acpi driver allows setting the fan level to “disengaged”, which sounds like “off” but actually means unregulated and results in a considerably higher speed and cooling performance than the usual maximum. Some research led to the conclusion that while manual fan control is possible with certain apps on Windows, there is no way to exceed the maximum automatic speed.
It only took a couple minutes to set up Lutris and Proton to run the game, and as expected the mild abuse of my laptop’s fan does make it playable. What I didn’t expect is considerably faster load times, but I got those too.
