Hi there, it looks like Journeys is considered the 23rd season of Pokemon (wikipedia says so too), I found it on TMDB: https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/60572/season/23

A lazy option to set up a player (what I do a t least), is installing via flatpak Jellyfin Media Player. For android, installing from F-droid.
Very well written…this reminded me of Astro City.
Awesome! I love this app for its widget, it’s very quick to jot down some notes during the day, and you can scroll the note contents from the homescreen.
Together with the Gallery they were my must-haves from Simplemobiletools, now from Fossify
Other than cleaning the vents, I would also see if any problem come up with a few passes of Memtest, and with a linux live system (I suggest Ventoy if you don’t have one ready, you install it once on a usb pen drive and from there on you only drag and drop the .iso files)
This is a good approach. I would not even use Izzy’s repo shown by OP (at least not on a daily driver device - great for testing newer apps I’m sure) because I don’t see it as advantageous to get updates so quickly or access to apps that are not yet (or will never be) fully open source.
Basically I see most of the value of F-Droid in their build server and official repo. So I only add repos with a very short list of apps, like microg and KDE.
I can always install the odd apk manually, or use Aurora store (preferably in the work profile)
I like Kde Itinerary for traveling so I add the Kde Android repo
From a quick look on wikipedia, looks like AC3 does not support VBR. That is enough to make AAC twice as good at least, especially since movies have a lot of silence in them, so your ratio of 1:2 equivalence seems right to me
Sorry I edited my other reply heavily because I noticed later that you were interested in some exact bitrate numbers… I don’t know enough about AC3 to know an equivalent number, all I can say is those numbers I’ve written for opus and AAC are in my experience enough to enjoy any movie.
Hi Zedstrain If compressing, why not opus? AAC is almost as good but you have to make sure you’re using a good encoder, and its licensing is not as open.
Anyway I found this table, next to “Music Storage”, it shows the suggested bitrate values depending on the number of audio channels, from 96 to 450. Should applicable to movies, and to AAC (maybe adding 10% bitrate?).
For movies I’d use these values personally:
2 channels: kbps 128 (150 AAC)
6 (5.1): 196 (224 AAC)
8 (7.1): 256 (300 AAC)
Did not see any requirement of the sort in the fine print, but even if there were, it’s fine as long as you pick the right provider. If I had to make the occasional call it’d be still worth it. There are also providers that will keep a sim active indefinitely as long as you “purchase” one month (as little as 5€) every 1/2 years (most importantly, they do not charge you into negative credit). So basically free to operate as well.
Honestly I do it mostly to limit spam, if I did it only for privacy reasons I’d have more than two numbers but I fear one might start getting noticed by the autorities at that point :/ sms is inherently unsafe and not private.
Every sim slot has its IMEI
Other than avoiding those services as much as possible, I use a second phone number for “machine-communication”= whenever I’m not giving my phone# to a person.
I’m in the EU, I found a provider in my country that offered a prepaid sim card (pay-per-use) with no expiry date, but never use the credit on it because it’s free to receive sms. I turn it on in my dual sim phone whenever I need it.
Nope everything usually just works, wine-mono takes care of .NET stuff. Take a look at the optional dependencies for wine (archlinux example), many of those lib32 libraries may be needed.
Cutting edge game-specific fixes that are not yet on normal system wine (especially for a stable distribution with an older wine package) might be on wine-ge that you can install from Lutris, and optionally use for a game or set as the default runner for all new games.
If you’re pirating, don’t use those lutris install scripts, they download directly from the original source like Steam or GOG.
Instead add a game on Lutris by clicking the + button, tell it to install from an executable (.exe), give it a title (if it corresponds to the name on lutris.net, it will download the cover art for you), pick a folder (which by default will be a new wine prefix folder just for this game), select the installer. Proceed as if you were on windows, exit after finishing installation so lutris will know you’re done installing. Your game will be ready to double click :)
AFAIK this shouldn’t change your system, it only activates it, you need to find another way to upgrade/reinstall to a different Windows version. Idk how because I always did clean installs, and for many years now I only use Enterprise LTSC (on a usb ssd with WinToUSB, my internal ssds only have linux).
It’s all about having the .lrc file, it gets read automatically (as long as it’s named like the song file) by mpv player and many android players.
It’s a simple text file containing the lyrics with timestamps. You can get them from deezer for example with certain downloaders. Or look for them on Soulseek.
TIL about MPR, thanks mate
Thanks for these infos, it’s very interesting to get a glimpse of what goes on behind the “scene”. Makes what you do even more impressive, keep it up 🙂
And I’m sure if dwarfs gets more popular and well maintained, it’ll get distributed more, so it’s not an issue. Also after commenting here yesterday I tried a quick tiny game (Jetstream) on a debian install and saw that dwarfs release on github comes with a dwarfsextract package that’s usable standalone, no installation required, in a few minutes I was playing the game’s exe bypassing the script.
Appreciate the response, I guess my point of view is of a patientgamer, that would not add extra pacman repos just to check out a game…
But I see how you guys have/want to keep up with the cutting edge to offer serious competition, and so from there the need of standardization and not doubling of the efforts makes perfect sense
I’m probably in the minority of gamers, but in the majority of linux users, and most of those that I know even forget they can play casually on their machine and instead rely on consoles or secondary pcs for fear of breaking their main system
In any case your collection is incredible, so if it makes people interested in installing a rolling distro and avoid that windows partition or closed up console, that’s a huge win in my book. Thumbs up 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks I just tried PassAndroid, pretty slick! I was using KDE Itinerary (way more features and always improving, but not too polished yet) to manage tickets before, now I have an alternative.
Regarding wireguard I always used WG Tunnel from f-droid, I’m looking at the official Wireguard app screenshots and it seems to have the same functionality (easy config import via QR scan, notification shade button), maybe it looks prettier. Not on f-droid, that’s why I didn’t come across it before.
