it happens all over the place. in the official google calendar app, but also in the system settings, etc. so it’s not just in external apps.

it’s weird 😅

i’m on android 15 (2025-05-05)

that’s another issue, lol.

i have my phone set to english but occasionally some apps use the 2nd system language for no reason.

it’s a known bug. the recommended fix?: reboot 🫩

this looks like a great release!

and although i bought the affinity apps a while ago - after i got them somewhat running on kubuntu - i still tend to use inkscape more often than affinity designer.

i guess it’s time for me to donate a few bucks … 😊

hmm, usually the & is not part of the filename and just tells the script to run in the background 🤔

but i’m not sure what it means in this case.

I always forget to be proud of - or even acknowledge - my achievements 😩

sometimes one of the requests is a m3u8 playlist, or something similar.

it may contain urls of thousands of chunks.

if you download all of them you can concat them.

that worked for me for some streams a few years ago, but there is probably an easier way 🤷🏻‍♂️

Occasionally i feel myself longing back to the good ol’ JSOFF times.

videos? they should totally be watchable at that point.

“okay, let’s concentrate. we’ve been at this timestamp 3 times already. this time i’m gonna listen real hard!”

20 seconds later; lost in thought.

5 mins later: “goddamit. it happened again. 😠”

it’s so ridiculous.

ok, yes, i suppose i should not have mentioned the scripts without attaching a warning.

i’m still grateful though that someone put in the effort to write 'em, because they finally solved a problem for me that i couldn’t solve for years.

i guess now it’s “the communities” turn to properly document and dissect those scripts for the larger user base.

i’m certainly not angry with whoever wrote those scripts because he didn’t put in even more effort for free.

but i do get your point (i think) and agree.

Well, jeah, i usually don’t like those too much either.

But then i just open the url and read the script line for line.

I got it running on my two kubuntu 24.04 machines using the scripts described in this video:

The process was still a bit fiddly but i got all three affinity apps running now.

That’s also weird to me. As soon as i have enough money to feel kinda secure for the next few months, making more money is not a huge priority anymore. Other interests then become way more important. This too is not optimal, i know. But it always has been like this for me. I wonder why i’m missing the greed gene 🤔

.psd-thumbnails work for me on ubuntu 22.04, xnview mp 1.6.1

i had problems with alpha/transparency in thumbnails which rendered them black or broken, but i’m not sure how i fixed it 🤔

i know that’s probably not really useful 😅

Maybe instead of calling as yourself pretend to be someone who is very comfortable calling their doctor. 🤔

Not sure if that works 😅

I tend to like assholes;

But not the person kind.

bitwig studio comes with tons of samples. it’s a fantastic daw.

there’s a reason a lot of ableton users switch over to bitwig.

reaper is also very good, but a bit clunky for edm/techno/etc.

i had something similar on my kubuntu/win7 dual-boot.

iirc i fixed it by disabling the powersave of my wifi-adapter.

don’t remember the exact command at the moment though. 🤔

what? since when?

last time i checked getting it to run with wine was a major hassle next to impossible.

huh? why is that?

i know we here in germany have plenty of them and i would assume that the rest of the world has them too.
