Piwigo does have a plugin for video upload and playback, and it looks like Live Photos are WIP or at least available through the website, not the app. There are some other neat plugins too like map/geotag support.
The app’s upload functionality can work well for backups too; it isn’t automatic, but it does support batch/folder uploads and remembering which photos you’ve already uploaded.
At that point I would just use std::span if you can, then you also get the standard container/iterator interfaces for free.
Not too similar to these titles, but this is why Robotron 2084 (arcade game) has a special place in my heart. Beautiful, smooth phases of vibrant colors with each level transition, and awesome sine/saw wave sound effects too. It’s addicting.
Honestly, I would argue that git submodule should count as a package manager. I simply list out the repos I want to pull in and update them as needed.
I can see the usability of this depending on the application though. My work is primarily in embedded; I only ever need to pull in a handful of small libraries.
Fun to play with? Xbox: no Brick: yes
Yes. It’s an ad. Also seems a stretch to be relevant to this Linux-focused community.
Pretty sure I read before that those counts do not include federated instances and only represent user/subscriber count on the instance you're viewing from.
Strange, I wonder if that was the SD card or one of the SATA drives? I mirror my data between the two HDDs for redundancy and occasionally run remote backups, though I've never had any problems with data loss. Been running mine for 2-3 years.
I’ve got an Odroid HC4, comes in a toaster-like enclosure with two SATA ports. Quad-core, 4gb RAM. Works well if you want something fairly simple.
Why is this a screenshot? Couldn’t you have just copied the text?
I'll admit I may not understand economies well, but the inverse is that these publishers are enabled to charge higher prices in higher-income countries. The cost of creating their goods is constant, so if Valve isn't selling at a loss to poorer regions then they are simply extracting additional profit from higher-income regions on the assumption that those customers can afford it.
I wonder how this kind of scenario plays out in other industries. Regardless, it seems like the EU has a goal of reducing gaps in buying power between their members, and their unified digital market is a step in that direction.
Did you read the article? This isn’t comparable to your India vs America example, it’s specific to prices only within the EU where the EU has digital market rules that specifically prohibit this.
What Valve did does sound like price-fixing too according to your linked definition of “an agreement among competitors to [fix] price levels”:
“Valve and five publishers (Bandai Namco, Capcom, Focus Home, Koch Media and ZeniMax) agreed to use geo-blocking so that activation keys sold in some countries … would not work in other member states. That would prevent someone … buying a cheaper key … where prices are lower.”
Milk really doesn’t do much for children, especially the supposed link to “bone health”. If kids are not properly fed at home, the same argument can be made that we should be making sure they at least get actual water to drink at school. Alternatively, there are plant milk options that can actually be healthier or more vitamin-rich than cow’s milk.

Gen Z here. Oldest computer I remember my family having was an XP tower, a Dell Dimension.
I studied computer engineering, and that interest pulled me into retro tech. I love seeing what older hardware is capable of — I’ve got a Pentium laptop that can load old Reddit and stream music over wifi.
There’s a trove of old hardware and software to dig through too with so many unique odds and ends. History and tech worth preserving. One of my favorite projects so far was doing some programming challenges in BASIC on an Apple II. Anything old-tech is fun to me :)
Amazing read, thanks for sharing. It’s fascinating to see that it is now hobbyist-accessible to design and order a PCB that intercepts BGA connections, something that at the time was Microsoft’s sure-fire trick to disable JTAG.
I can never stick with gnome/gtk because it’s been impossible for me to get a consistent theme/look across my apps.
Newer gnome/gtk has its DPI jacked so that the title bar, buttons, etc. are far too huge for my desktop or laptop, with the only fix being to tinker with the theme config files. Older gnome apps don’t have this issue, but their themes are incompatible so good luck finding a matching theme pair. Non-GTK apps would get stuck with the newer title bar — I swear it would be >100px tall. And doesn’t gnome/gtk 4 have an even newer theme interface that’s incompatible with 2/3?
I’ve since moved to openbox and tiling managers; they actually bother to get this right.
