Look into GNUstep and related projects maybe? I’m not sure how close it is to pre-NS Mac (that was OS X iirc?) but it might be close enough.

I’m fairly sure you can do this with Wireplumber hooks. https://pipewire.pages.freedesktop.org/wireplumber/design/events_and_hooks.html

It’s very funny you say MOV and HEIC are proprietary and then list MP4 considering

• HEIC is just H.265, the video codec, used to encode images
• H.264, the codec used for most mp4 files has the same license as H.265 with patent bullshit license fees going on
• MP4 container is pretty similar to MOV, and is also not an open standard
• this also means MOV and MP4 can be losslessly converted
• Apple provides documentation for MOV format free of charge while ISO really wants you to pay to get official standard PDF
• All this doesn’t matter anyway because ffmpeg can decode everything (though I guess it might matter in bizarro land where software patents are a thing)

Also Android can totally read at least HEIC images. Not sure about MOV. Any of this is also not related to the problem the OP has.

Not an app, but one thing I can recommend that is pretty much "for free" is to turn on iCloud Advanced Data Protection, that gets you end-to-end encryption for pretty much all iCloud storage (photos and so on).

Everything else I would recommend is probably not going to happen (such as deleting Discord) or of questionable benefits (such as using the web version of Discord instead of what is probably the app) :^)

It's very unlikely there's a GUI tool that will do this unless you write one yourself, that sounds like a very uhhh, unique naming scheme. You can sort them using a shell script:

for file in *; do
  name="${file%.*}"
  suffix="${name: -2}"
  printf '%s\t%s\n' "$suffix" "$file"
done | sort

Alternatively, modify this so that it will create symlinks in a new folder that have names that will get sorted correctly in whatever GUI tool.

This is designed for Gentoo but I've used it for Ubuntu before: https://github.com/TheChymera/mkstage4/

Ah, yeah openrc is nice and I used it for a long time with gentoo, but it does lack a lot of the useful features like this one.

As far as I know, that only stops out of date versions of grub that have a certain vulnerability from running that would allow escaping Secure Boot. Meh. It doesn't touch any Linux files or anything and you can boot if you turn off Secure Boot so you can fix it. Long shot from what used to happen where you could only have one boot loader installed at a time so installing Windows would wipe what was there before.

(and by fix it I mean replace grub with systemd-boot)

Windows doesn't mess with the Linux install anymore, that was with BIOS boot. Just make sure the EFI partition is big enough so you can fit both.

server applications

Note that systemd can use most if not all of the isolation features nsjail lists in the readme already for services it manages.

I love them! Great work!

Please report this on https://bugs.kde.org/. I can't find a bug that looks like the same issue at least.

Do you mean you’re changing that file in /usr? Don’t do that, that is managed by the package manager and will get overwritten on updates. Awesomewm very likely has a way to run a command on startup, use that.

Very true haha. NixOS is great and the best I've got right now but I would lie if I said it has never been painful.

Especially for desktop use I want to build my own distro which takes a lot from NixOS, mostly in terms of the central configuration but not much else (I definitely want a more sane package installation situation where you don't need stuff like wrapper scripts which are incredibly awful imo), but also other distros, and also with some unconventional things (such as building it around GNUstep). But who knows if that ever gets off the ground, I have way too many projects with enormous scale...

I run NixOS. It (or something like it, with a central declarative configuration for basically everything on the system) is imo the ideal server distro.

Someone stole my digital camera when I was a kid. I left it near the window at the place we were staying at for our vacation and someone must have grabbed it from the outside while we were gone. I was probably pretty mad about it back then. Nothing since, that I can remember right now at least.

• I used to do side loading on iOS for a modded YouTube app (uYou+) but now I just use YouTube in the browser with AdGuard and Vinegar extensions. There’s ways to sideload and auto refresh the certificate that don’t need you to connect the phone to a computer which apparently work pretty well (I used AltStore which was pretty annoying because it doesn’t do that).
• Usually I think you just have to enable NSFW on a computer/via the browser for it to work in the app. At least that how it is for Telegram iirc. Generally there shouldn’t be a problem accessing anything.
• No idea, the only thing I play on my phone is Shattered Pixel Dungeon and I bought that

Ah, so that you can easily replace it if it ends up on some spam list?

What do people use Google Voice for? Phone calls from PCs?
