I prefer AppImages. I find system-wide installations risky in the long run, and don’t mind managing each software myself. Plus, often I have to use super old software, and when the current programs become old themselves, it’s useful, I think, that they’re as independent as they can from dependencies that may or may not be available anymore. However, still using apt download
just in case as that variant of the command also downloads dependencies.

Personally, I think piracy is a tool of the desperate, the disheartened and those that don’t care for awarding merit. The desperate if a software is too hard to come by legitimately, the disheartened as a form of protest if the software/company has draconian practices at play, and those that don’t award merit because they would, if not never, at least rarely buy/rent anything if not forced to.
FOSS is nice and all, but do mind people are expending their time in such projects, so if you think a project is good and you can afford it, I’d suggest supporting financially the creators.
Meant in that sense, yes - searching for errors and their solutions as I see my computer having such major failures

If I had a nickel for every time my phone saved me from massive failures in Linux, I’d have 4 nickels. "<.<
Accepting defeat is the quickest way for that. Humanity dealt with much worse already, and though they seem to be trying to be as bad, the push against them from the common citizen and the more reasonable of their peers in power is making momentum to be lost quickly.

If war-themed FFs fit in, and if people accept a 19 y.o. PS2 game as retro, Final Fantasy XII is pretty good, and points for the story going more the infiltration and diplomacy routes instead of protagonists buldozing everything like in previous games.
And on a more classic sense of war, Outlive is pretty good but hard. Also wasn’t expecting the units’ quotes (at least in the Portuguese dubbing; haven’t checked it in English) to be as silly/amusing, but it helps cracking up some smiles here and there.

Auster@thebrainbin.orgto Self-hosting@slrpnk.net•Is there any softwares to download and sync with YouTube/PeerTube/Lbry?5·29 days agoIf you use yt-dlp, I think it’s interesting to mention it allows attaching the video’s description into the file’s comment, like in the following command:
yt-dlp --embed-metadata --parse-metadata "description:(?s)(?P<meta_comment>.+)" https://video-link/
It also has the option to download, as well as embed, different audio and subtitles languages, iirc, as well as fetching the auto-generated dubbing and subtitles from Youtube. Just can’t remember the respective flags as I may use it only very sporadically.
Auster@thebrainbin.orgto Self-hosting@slrpnk.net•Is there any softwares to download and sync with YouTube/PeerTube/Lbry?4·29 days agoDon’t think it does. =/
It’s mainly an Android program. But if you’d still use it, Android has a desktop/x86 version if you’d be so inclined, and maybe (hopefully) the PC version is updated into a decent state now.
Auster@thebrainbin.orgto Self-hosting@slrpnk.net•Is there any softwares to download and sync with YouTube/PeerTube/Lbry?5·29 days agoGrayjay has integration with Youtube, Peertube and others, so maybe that to download? Do mind one or other integrations may be spotty (e.g. Nico Nico through a 3rd party plugin) and or not supporting downloads (e.g. Spotify). And Youtube specifically requires login there for you to download videos marked as mature.
I consider two things to think Peertube not being sustainable isn’t the case.
First, the noise caused bad actors / professional fearmongerers, and people too used to Youtube or that think any social medias would skyrocket in the first month of service, may make people think it’s a far more prevalent opinion.
Second, platforms such as Peertube may cather to any movements, be them cultural, political, for business, and so on, while also, due to being based on instances, it much harder to be taken over.
Those two together make me see the project as having great potential, a potential that some may fear intentionally or otherwise.
And on a side note, “the new mobile app” reminds me, anyone could potentially make programs for it, or even integrate Peertube to their own. Another reason for it being able to cather to way more people, I think, as then programs could be made to interests and needs otherwise not found.
Auster@thebrainbin.orgto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Is there any libre open source website like Rumble where l can create my own channel ?2·1 month agoLike others said in other responses, Peertube may be a good call. Iirc, there’s also a reels-type of federated platforms akin to TikTok too, but I can’t remember the name.
Maybe martial arts or cross-fit? Afaik, martial arts aren’t as repetitive as usual exercises, and cross-fit is pretty mixed up.
Also, though harder given ADHD itself, as you identified problematic points of your behavior, maybe focus also on changing them?
