Open source is the modern marvel that nobody talks about. Like the industrial revolution or the building of the pyramids. I know it's preaching to the choir on lemmy. Open source made the 21st century digital revolution.

Sometimes I wonder how much the average person can comprehend the scale of what has been accomplished over the past few decades. I'm sure they attribute it to the power of the corporations' drive for profit. None of that would have happened without the combined effort of people around the world building out one software library or application at a time. There's a behemoth underneath the shiny corporate tech products that is the real achievement.

Some say, born to late to yadda born to soon to whatever. Guy, we have lived in very interesting times. You just haven't been looking. We've lived through the middle of something incredible. I'm sure Jim Ramses was super annoyed at another brick to haul back in 10000BC so the pharaoh can have his stupid tomb or whatever. He wasn't thinking, they're going to be nuts over this stuff in a few millennia.

That being said, I think open source is facing existential trials in the near future.

How do you use the symbols?

I implemented the “frame seek” functionality using the , and . keys a year back, was merged in v12. You're welcome.

Huh, this is something I have never thought of, and I'm not really sure what it's for... but it sounds like the idea is that you say upfront "play me the next 3 episodes of this show", and then it plays 3 automatically, and after the third takes you back to the menu? Fascinating.

I too want some things to grow when I wiggle them 😏

On cachyOS, it has this feature but there is no upper bound to how much it increases. So if you just keep shaking it, it grows to fill the entire screen. Lol

I just installed Fedora Linux on my old Winblows Surface 3 tablet. It does this, and it's pretty fun to mess with.

My MacBook does this as well

If we are talking gnome that will never happen. Sorry.

I'm sure dev has abandoned it completely.

I wish I had the drive to learn to really program instead of just small scripts and BS, but im sure I'd just spend all my time keeping up with the code base and trying to follow guidelines that I'd add nothing to the project.

They've taken forever to pull that extension realthunder made into the actual project.

I'm waiting for Linux 7.4 to drop so I can have non-Steam games working with my Switch 2 Pro Controller out of the box.

Typeahead in Nautilus

Any good video player for xiaomi HyperOS (vlc cannot be switched away from and you don't have a "next" button, all others have different sync problems or cannot find files in hidden folders etc etc).

I'm still pissed that Google essentially hostaged every browser into not supporting JXL in favor of AVIF because cheap ass google wanted to save on future cloud storage costs.

Firefox literally had JXL years ago but it was a "test feature" you needed to enable manually.

Now all of a sudden Chrome gets support and Firefox follows like the good little dog Mozilla is.

Directory Opus looks like a file manager, so you might want to look at the options available on Linux. If you're not fixed on one desktop environment, it's worth checking several as they all have slightly different ideas. I can see Directory Opus has various other minor features, you'll find many if them already included in existing file managers, but if something's missing, you could request it, then you're in the position the meme talks about.

Not sure why you'd want to run it on linux, but it seems like it works in wine. You could probably get it going with winboat too
