7 things all kids need to hear
1 I love you
2 I'm proud of you
3 I'm sorry
4 I forgive you
5 I'm listening
6 RAID is not backup. Make offsite backups. Verify backup. Find out restore time. Otherwise, you got what we call Schrödinger backup
7 You've got what it takes

There doesn't appear to be a limit to the maximum size the KDE cursor can get when you shake it.
I find this hilarious. Is this an easter egg? When shaking my mouse cursor, I can get it to take up the whole screens height.
This is KDE Plasma 6.

Well I think that you can achieve that with MPV with using the save-position-on-quit in mpv.conf or using Shift+q when exiting the Video this does the job for me. Also you can search for a lua script that might be more useful like some of those:
[1] github.com/CogentRedTester/mpv…
[1.1] github.com/CogentRedTester/mpv…
[2] github.com/Eisa01/mpv-scripts?…
[3]( MPV script that periodically saves "watch later" data during playback ) gist.github.com/TheDrHax/fa2db…
I never have used them myself tough.

Hey, cis folks? And especially men? If you want some low effort trans ally actions you can take, put your pronouns everywhere.
Like, everywhere.
On here, in your profile. On your other social media. On your own website. On your GitHub profile. On your resume. In your email ‘From:' header. Your email signature. Your business cards, if you have those.
Basically everywhere you introduce yourself, in other words. Make it pervasive, normal, set an example.
Then take your privilege, wield it like both sword and shield, arguing for gender neutral language everywhere you can. Legal documents, the works.
Let us see you fight for it ✊🏻

Updated my personal blog theme to Attila. So I figured I should update my /Uses page as well. And I had quite a few updates to do there.

Enterprise Linuxes release version 9.5 and other somewhat recent cool crap
Yep, when I started the draft of this post it was a couple recent links. By the time I hit publish they were stale. But I'm releasing anyway! Red Hat Enterprise Linux has released version 9.5.Steven Brady (Open Source or GTFO)
@Campbell Jones :budgie: And they didn't add the old color version to their alternate app icons?

I just want my SMS support back. I've been hopping across half-a-dozen different free SMS apps that are either missing features or have those broken features. Everything just worked with Signal.
I also can't convince my friends to try Signal when I now don't use it.

My wife's WD_BLACK NVMe SSD is failing.
The support and RMA procedure is easy, albeit confusing.
But Western Digital/Sandisk is charging $25 non-refundable 'Convenience Fee' for an advanced RMA replacement. That's pretty sucky.

Wow, this @sovtechfund fellowship looks great - if you live in Germany and are a maintainer of a widely used yet poorly funded open source project, they basically pay you to maintain it for a whole year at something pretty close to market rates, with the perks of being an employee like paid holidays and all the rest.
More info below.
Please look there before asking questions here. I don’t work for them, but I like what they do.

Forever grateful to Rsyninator's web command line generator, because even after more than 20 years as a sysadmin I still can't remember every command line switch of every program that I use, and this one makes rsync easy.

in reply to Ada • • •That’s a very Linuxy thing to do. The devs allow you to do whatever you want. If you want to have several 4K displays and find your cursor by shaking it, go right ahead. If you want to cover the entire display with a massive cursor, be my guest.
Microsoft and Apple seem to love limitations, whereas FOSS devs want to give users the freedom they deserve. Besides, there’s a valid use case for many things that would seem completely absurd to you and me. The devs can’t know what kind of weird situations the user have, so “sensible limits“ would only end up being infuriating.

Also a clever way to react to the usual "where the fuck is the mouse" action people take which is to just shake the shit out of it till they see it. Love it.
