    VueTorrent is a web client. I currently use the official Web UI in an isolated Chromium instance and made an automatic log in page so that I don't have to type in the password ever…

    As someone that only very recently switched to qBittorrent from Transmission after using it for few years - the lack of non-Web UI remote clients.

    I was annoyed one day and was looking online around for some solutions. You can find a bit more information here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71192605/how-do-i-get-yo...

    I see people are doing scripts or other things to remove shorts from their feeds, but there is a simpler solution. Take your RSS URL of a channel, e.g.: https://www.youtube.com/fee…

    On the "Space" sidebar I used to have a button list rooms outside of any "Space" and a button to list only DMs. Now I still have the button to list rooms outside of any "Space" but…

    From what I found in UK banks will let 16 year olds to open an account independently. You could also mail cash (Mullvad), buy a VPN gift card in a physical store or online or get s…

    Samsung also makes sensors for phones. IIRC some Pixels use their sensors.

    GPU video encoding is pretty much always optimised for real-time encoding, meaning that it can't run certain optimisations as it would increase the time to encode. Compare x264 ver…

    I wouldn't even call it a fork, it's just a mirror with a commit that replaces few links in a README.

    You can even go to the point store, get a url of the preview, download it from Steam servers, put it in an appropriate Steam subdirectory and set in Steam settings to be the defaul…

    You can select "Plain SVG" instead of "Inkscape SVG" in the file saving dialogue.

    Just a small note about it: it's not open-source and their excuse is… pretty poor. They don't give you modification rights at all, so you can't even legally contribute to the proje…

    On my laptop alone SponsorBlock has skipped 5225 segments, which equals to 1d 20h. That's a lot of time I would waste by watching all of these. Also, if you are fine with sponsor s…

    It's weird for me to see IMAP with STARTTLS on 143 instead of IMAPS on 993. Not sure why anyone would do this.

    Yep, just some CSS. I have not cleaned it up for release or anything, so it's a bit messy, but feel free to use it under the licence terms of cgit (GPLv2.0-only) and if you don't m…

    Hmm, just checked and it seems that it doesn't work when I'm connecting through some Mullvad VPN exits, but works when I disconnect. Oh well. I assume you have something like fail2…

    You can't update the firmware at all and you are still running it. Librem 5 has very dated hardware that barely runs. It has only Cortex A53 cores @ 1.5 GHz that were released in 2…

    YouTube has already implemented Premium-only quality in a form of 1080p Premium, i.e. higher bitrate 1080p. Though they don't seem to be worried that yt-dlp can download it without…
