Is there any way to save storage on similar images?
GravitySpoiled 3 days ago • 83%
Storage is cheap. You suggest combining the images and storing the difference.
You can't separate the images anymore. You have to store them in a container such that you have one common base image. You can then later on decide which image to look at.
You could also take a short video and only display one image.
Avif uses a video compression algorithm, meaning it's basically one frame of a video.
Btw, I wouldn't care about your problem. Storage is cheap. Try saving 10 4k videos and you'll laugh about your image library

What's your take on parquet? I'm still reading into it. Why is it closely related to apache? Does inly apache push it? Meaning, if apache drops it, there'd be no interest from others to push it further? It's published under apache hadoop license. It is a permissive license. Is there a drawback to the license? Do you use it? When? I assume for sharing small data, csv is sufficient. Also, I assume csv is more accessible than parquet.

There's no other repos. It's not federated, it's not decentral. It's like google's store but from someone who's endorsed by grapheneos. Maybe it'll become the official grapheneos app store. (Its just a random thought) in that case it'll get graoheneos' reputation but still, there's a reason why many people love fdroid and with the rise of reproducible builds it'll become difficult to conquer their castle

How much CO2 has been emitted in my lifetime?
GravitySpoiled 3 weeks ago • 87%
The graph wants to highlight you and connect the data with you. You could've simply shown that we've produced this much in the past 30 years. It is even the same graph but another interpretation. It is the same. You corrected that 🥰
What I don't like is that we always put time on the x axis. Always. There is no reason to put it on the y axis for this plot.
And then, you start 100 years ago where it was 5%, etc. And the data increases over time, instead of decreasing.
The title is misleading. It's not in your lifetime. It means in the readers lifetime. The graph show's you and not me. You updated that in your graph which is awesome 🥰

I am going to ask if I may use linux for work. We are using windows but there is nothing that couldn't be done on linux. Privately, I am mainly a fedora user but I'd be happy with any OS and DE or wm. What do I need to look out for when I suggest an OS? What does a computer/ linux/DE need in order to be ready for enterprise workstation? Will I only have a user and no sudo rights? May I install all flatpak apps? Does the admin have to be able to remote ssh?

is there a bookmark manager like jabref for linux url bookmarks? I use Jabref for papers and books. I group and rate them and keep track of reading status. There are a lot of websites that also provide valuable information but firefox' bookmark manager can't be used to rate sites or make comments. I can manually add links which is cumbersome. Is there a similar tool like jabref for internet links? In the optimal case it would take firefox' bookmarks and work with them such that I can bookmark a site with Ctrl+D and do all the site related work within that manager. edit: Bonus, if it automatically fetches the article to preserve it

Today, I wanted to have another go with nix. Previously I just read about it and didn't do anything for a couple of months. Now, I installed nix package manager with very few lines of code and two more to install many packages as described in his post. Installation was very fast on my banana laptop. Until now I used distrobox but I always wondered which distro/ package manager to use. What's your experience with it? For now, I'll test it. It's super easy to use. It may not be straight forward to a linux newcomer but if you know what you want, e.g. ffmpeg you can just add it with `home-manager edit` and install it with `home-manager switch`. So far, I love it!

My server (fedora) stops all podman containers after 2-3 hours since 3 days. I can start all containers again, and the same happens after a while. I do not know where to look for the problem. In top, I found a oom message. I assume that the system runs out of memory and stops all services. How can I find the problem? I can’t find anything in the container logs. I can see that systemctl status is always starting. It doesn’t become “running”. But I do not know how to proceed.
Following is very subjective and probably varies from distro to distro, de to de, app to app, user to user. For the longest time, I believed Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab was the only way of navigation through apps and windows. Many years ago, some editor introduced me to the behavior that Ctrl+Tab switches to the last used tab. I hated that behavior. I didn't understand it and it was annoying. Luckily you could switch to the old way (in my experience) which I did. # How do you guys cycle through windows? What is the best way for switching? Is there a standard or at least an attempt for a standard? Or at least a name for different styles? ## App / Window switching I switch and highlight apps by pressing Meta+Tab, or Meta+Shift+Tab. This works very good. I use PaperWM, a window tiling feature in GNOME such that I have no overlapping windows and don't need to care about the position of the windows anymore for the most part. When I press Ctrl+i, the window to the right of the highlighted window moves below the current window and both adjust in size to half the screen.  Cycle right isn't the proper way of going forward doesn't apply here anymore unless I define it as a zig zag movement.  Luckily, we have arrow keys. With, Meta+[Up,Down,Left,Right] I can move to any window. The shortcoming is that I need two hands because Meta is on the left and the arrow are on the right side of the keyboard. Having to use two hands is a big no-go for a fundamental command in my opinion. What's the solution to this? Ctrl+[W,S,A,D]? Does it clash with other main fundamental keybindings? Kate uses Alt+Arrow to cycle through tabs. It uses Ctrl+Tab to cycle through time. If you use Ctrl+Arrow to cycle through the windows, you can use Ctrl+(Shift+)Tab for cycling through time, i.e. last used tab/window. In the browser, I navigate via Ctrl+Tab. There are no tabs below the current tab. btw, why not, mozilla? Kate and Pulsar (Atom successor) have Ctrl+N as the default for a new document (and hence tab). For consistency, I want to use either Ctrl+T or Ctrl+N for a new document/window. Which standard do you guys use and prefer? Other apps with other keybindings? Ctrl+Tab is good for a linear movement but Ctrl+Arrow is more logical. I used to use Alt+F4 to quit apps. Recently, I discovered that you can use Ctrl+w to quit a tab and Ctrl+q to close a window. Wouldn't it be better to use Ctrl+q to close a tab and Meta+q to close the window? Currently, I default to - Ctrl+Arrow is for tab bidimensional motion. - Meta+Arrow is for window bidimensional motion. - Ctrl+Tab is for tab time-dimensional motion. - Meta+Tab is for window time-dimensional motion. - Which is better Ctrl+T or Ctrl+N for a new tab/document? Is it good that there is a distinction? - Shift always reverses the action I can't find a way to customize the keybindings in firefox, does that mean that I have to default to [Ctrl,Meta]+Tab to cycle through tabs/windows?

Is there a video which compares 1080 and 4k and another one comparing HDR vs SDR? When I watch 4k content I think, wow, this is great detail. But when I watch 1080 this is very good, but the tiny people in the background wouldn't be blurred in 4k. And when I watch a dark SDR video I hate that the movie companies didn't release HDR quality although it's a recent movie/ series. But how would I know if it would be better? I always think that the grass is greener on the other side, but how would I know? Would it be hard to create such a video file? I guess with ffmpeg. But all else would need to be kept constant which is the difficult part

Whenever I start qbittorrent, the seeding torrents are queued. I've got two upload slots and 30 seconds timeout. It takes very very long until all torrents are seeding, if ever, until the next restart. How can I avoid this? One method is to increase the amount of upload slots to 10 and the timeout to 2 seconds (any large and low number will do it). But I don't want to baby sit qbittorrent every time I start it. Is there another way while keeping only few upload slots?
