Is OpenRecall secure as well? One of my biggest problems with MS recall is that it stores all your personal info in plain text.

What is Max-Q?
This is why I don’t use Adobe.
I’m so glad I saw the red flags from earlier and decided to stay far away from anything Adobe.
Anyways, this is the new business tactic. Start stealing confidential information by somehow forcing a new ToS change or update.
From my experience, while LXQt uses ~20-25% less RAM than XFCE, it runs way faster and uses less CPU than XFCE.
This is one of the areas I see this whole “AI” thing being super useful. It could probably transcribe the video, separate the text into coherent sections and paragraphs, and take stills from the video as pictures. If the AI is smart enough, it could selectively pick out the right stills.
Quick correction: Canva is web based so you can use it on Linux no problem.
For me, the Windows software I use are:
That’s pretty much it. I could definitely switch to Linux full time, but Musicbee is soooo good that it feels like a sacrifice.
I don’t think Olive is a good alternative to davinci resolve. First, nothing is good if it crashes a lot. Second, Davinci Resolve is feature rich and super powerful, while Olive is not. The closest FOSS alternative is Kdenlive, but I’d recommend finding a distro that can run Davinci itself, as Davinci does have a native Linux client for some distros.
Does it support custom playlists where you can “weight” each track and pitchshifting/time stretching? If so, this is enormous. Of all software, it’s Musicbee that’s keeping me tied to Windows more than anything else.
I’m no Linux expert, but I’ve never had any problems with sudo, it just works. Shouldn’t systemd have higher priorities on their mind? This feels like change for the sake of change. And if this does happen, I sincerely hope that it just works, like sudo.
People don’t have brand new laptops all the time. Often, they have crappy 10 year old laptops because they can’t afford anything better, especially in poorer parts of the world.
In MicroSD cards flash is cheap. But unfortunately, most phones don’t come with MicroSD slots anymore, and instead they come with huge storage markups. According to Apple, which controls a big section of the market, a Big Mac gets you a whopping 5GB of storage, that’s if you buy today. But with a 5 year old phone, a Big Mac back then would get you 1GB of storage that you use today. And in many countries, most people make less than a Big Mac per day.
You said you love a system with lots of useful processes running in the background. My comment questions if these useful background processes are really bloat, at least in your system.
If you frequently use the software and there’s no easy alternative, is it really bloat?
30TB? You’re in the 0.0001% for laptop storage. I have more than 98% of people and I have 3TB.
Not everyone is this fortunate. Some people have cheapo laptops with 32GB eMMC. Now, 3GB vs 2.95GB is still negligible, but 4GB vs 5GB is definitely not negligible.
One of the weirdest things I’ve noticed with Audacity is the file size of the projects. I have a project with 7 3-minute tracks and maybe 100 edits, and the file size is 6GB! Are the file sizes so large so that they can more easily upsell cloud storage?
Didn’t Audacity already have pitch shifting? Or did they improve the algorithm? If the latter is true, this is very exciting to me
I agree. Responsive web design can be tricky, I was banging my head against the wall for 5 hours trying to debug a mobile-friendly UI for my game.
What is the best option if you wanted to run Linux on ARM?
These days I’m more interested in the ARM world rather than the x86 world because ARM is simpler, power-efficient, scalable from cortex M0 to X4 and everything in between, and I took a class on ARM assembly language. x86, on the other hand, is full of legacy cruft and complicated as a result, and x86 is power hungry. Look at the new Intel 14900K, it draws over 400W!
I use it because a class wanted me to either use it in a VM or use WSL but WSL didn’t work and I figured it was easier to set up a dual boot than setting up a VM since I’ve installed Linux quite a few times.
No “extended gestures?” This makes GNOME feel way more slick without compromising the GNOME philosophy.
A couple years ago YouTube decided to F up their search. It used to be mostly things you are searching for, now it’s:
20% thing you searched for,
20% Shorts,
10% people also watched,
10% related [extremely tangentially]
10% For You
and 30% ads.
I don’t blame anyone for wanting someone to suggest a link after YT’s search became hot garbage.
