@fribbledom Eh, I'm still using tar, with either xz or gz.

@LordCaramac @fribbledom My own BBS used ARJ as its primary format, but I was the only one locally. Almost every other BBS used zip, sit, or lzh. sit and lzh were only used on 1 and 2 other BBSes respectively, and zip had the rest.

@futurebird @Cheeseness Since I just yt-dlp all the videos and drop them in a folder, click "watch later", then use a program to play them from smallest to largest, my equivalent to the next video button is to just close the mpv window. If a video isn't what I wanted, I have to go to my watch later list and delete the video. In order for the views to count, I launch a VM and have it consume my entire watch later list at 240p using the youtube web player...

Needless to say, the way that I watch youtube is very counter to what they designed because I'm trying to avoid this adversarial design. I actually just combine many video sites into one folder of videos.

@david_chisnall So, they can't just run an existing test on F77, then rerun the same test on F90 with old data? Silly.

@Cheeseness @LexGear All of them being one type or another is unrealistic. It's all bell curves, you'll always have outliers, and you can't judge any given goblin by the general goblin bell curve, have to look at the individual goblin because the individual variability trumps group identity.

Ah, I see, known bug in chromium, may take time to filter down. https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/issues/11957

Brave has the same issue now as well, so it must be something that broke in chromium.

I wonder why Vivaldi-snapshot is suddenly crashing whenever I put it on my 4k monitor...

@union If they really had a no clowns protest, none of them could attend.

@fribbledom With enough extra layers we can call it ~/.wine/drive_c instead.

@developing_agent @brewsterkahle True, Is there a mirroring mechanism to do that, and a way to split it into pieces so that you could select a shard? I was under the impression from the search setup that it was all one big nosql blob backed by tapes and cache drives.

@developing_agent @brewsterkahle This is a very hard problem as well, I'm not sure what other organization would have the sheer storage capacity to replicate it, and simultaneously want to take the risk to their business that some of the data creates.

@brewsterkahle It's become very acutely apparent that the Internet Archive is an enormous single point of failure. Nearly none of the Archives collections are replicated externally by other orgnaizations. The eggs are all in one basket.

Should the Archive fail for any number of legal, policy, or financial reasons, most of the archived information ever collected will be erased.

@cliffwade Well, whenever something gets bought up, there's always the concern that the corporations will start to sneak stuff in. I started looking for alternatives at least when it was bought.

@cliffwade Once novalauncher kind of started getting corporate, I ended up switching to Unlauncher...

@fribbledom 27? I include ONE library and get 200 dependencies. ;)

@pro @sophie This is why most of my recent apps I've made are using toml for settings...

Json may be simpler, but it's a lot less human writable/readable for users. I get annoyed every time I have to edit a YAML file.
