What are some things that just don't work on Linux? I'm interested in finding a long term project that's beyond my current abilities.

It's not really absent functionality, but there's no music player on Linux that's on par with MusicBee. DeaDBeeF is the best I've found otherwise, and supports plugins for things like bulk tag exporting (Copy info), but seems to lack advanced filtering and file exports.

Fake people with AI generated content you can follow for whatever fucking reason they think anyone would do that.
As much as I love MMBN, the idea of talking with an AI character sounds like the cringest thing ever.
Even if you could battle with them and interact with the web and real life, it is still something that would obviously would become a privacy nightmare.

Well, more like the grasped the cyberpunk imaginarium and were extremely successful on making it anime. I wished they would have had the balls to make it more mature since they had load of opportunity with the world they build, but it ended up being too much like Medabots.

Your own personal AI with its own custom personality that you can take with you wherever you go with no internet needed. They help with homework and school work, remind you of various things like appointments, check your email, stop and fix viruses, physically fix broken software as they can analyze code in real time like any programmer would with the right debugging tools, they both manage your security and are your security, works for you. When people hire you, they're hiring you for your properly trained AI as there's limits to what your AI can known or learn.

Their world gets even deeper the more you think on it. Grade school is also for training their personal AI so I'm guessing there's some kind of degree to what their AI can learn or be trained in. They're constantly ringing in on you like a real person so there no need to reply to them in order to get them to speak. They have normal conversations not just with the user but other people and AI's as well.

Portable little AI slaves really.

If Win11 would just pack all of the UI settings into a compact win32 styled menu it would go a long way to making it more discoverable and easy to use. Of course customization is much more limited now.

Not a SHTF solution. When some, um, people are causing a lot of wars, how come you haven't invested in any radiation hardened computer hardware, anon?
What good is that loicense going to do you after the apocalypse if your machine is zapped?
I'll still be able to play games, watch porn and kino while you sob autistically about your stinkpad. If your machine wasn't for faggots you could log on to my ham radio bbs at night when the skip's good.

Needing some advice on music players for Linux. Running Antergos. Installed a few, and so far the only viable option is Audacious, but it is missing some creature comforts that I got with foobar. Most importantly, I want one that will support some sort of convolver, since I have impulse waveforms for all of my cans. I am using a Schiit stack to play everything. Anyone have any recommended players?

Half-venting, half-serious inquiry: why the fuck is Google shadowbanning (shown to only me while logged in, not shown to anyone else or to me while logged out) the following comments. Separate comments on separate lines, all shadowbanned:
>About hardware: even back in 2016 I needed 128Gb of RAM to provide a service for my clients on a level that they expected, in 2025 that's a Threadripper with 8x32 and 24Gb of VRAM at minimum.

>My company will outperform anyone who has inferior software, hardware, and less efficient pipelines. Outperform on money and on time. Clients expect top end results with a quick turnaround.

>Another example, I have 3 large screens because over a year, it's far cheaper for me to buy 2 extra monitors, than to constantly waste time alt+tabbing to view references or communicate, etc.

>But nobody would ever need 3 screens because you can do everything with 1 screen also, right? That's the difference between tinkerers and professionals: time = money.

(arguing with a faggot saying my shitty thinkpad and opensource toys can do *everything*)

Is Google fucking retarded? I haven't been able to converse with anyone for the better part of the last 5 years. The same bullshit, have a casual conversation going (or try to have), then check it while logged out and see that 70% of what I've posted has never appeared publicly. Sometimes the most mundane shit gets autodeleted like: "I wish you happy holidays, mate". At one point I tried to help some guy out by typing only "You can find it by googling *some mundane shit about computing*" aaaand shadowbanned. I may use my phone and an alt account, still the same shit. What in the ungodly fuck is going on? Not a single swearword. Not a single no-no topic. And then there's endless fucking botposts with the same exact spamcontent on every fucking major fagtuber 15 seconds after publishing a video. Oh then they are powerless, nothing they can do. Fuck them with a rusty iron spike. What the fuck is their problem?

Come on, this whole comment is loaded with blatantly supremacist language.

Has anyone else here noticed that they are not applying the overly oppressive censorship to Japanese videos/users?

I follow a bunch of Japanese channels like Honda's for example and the comments/discussion there remains nearly 100% uncensored from what I can tell. Even comments straight up bashing the video get to stay up and so do people re-posting comment shitposts in Japanese. In fact, if you stick mainly to conversing in Japanese with other users you wouldn't be able to tell the AI censorship is happening at all.

I can't figure out if they've simply given up on training AI moderation to moderate Japanese users or if they're not overly concerned about what Japanese users discuss. The vast majority of Japanese users won't even interact with stinky gaijin posting in English. Their web still feels like 2006 and there is not a bunch of Japanese users cheering on censorship like we have in the west. Anyone that even hints at censoring anything gets shouted down quickly and flooded out.

I'm very happy I took the time to learn how to speak, read and write in niponese. Being able to use their web is the only thing keeping me sane these days. In fact, the moment I get cut off from their part of the internet will probably be the day when I cut the cord and go innawoods.

Before anyone accuses me of just being into it for weebshit: It's true I initially learned nip for weebshit but these days I rarely consume any weebshit. Following nip politics is far more interesting than watching anime or reading mango.

What's /g/'s opinion on Mental Outlaw? I've been a fan of his for a long long time, he's the one that made me privacy conscious and made me switch to Linux. I remember once reading in one of his comment sections that he was "bullied off /g/" by some guy, is this true? Also, if you're seeing this thread Kenny, hi!

Luke Smith is the embodiment of the Dunning Krueger effect. He's a Language arts PHD dropout that decided to just copy the most successful Linux YouTuber at the time (Mental Outlaw) but Luke's technical competence is so low he makes several mistakes whenever he rips off one of Kenny's videos. When people called him out on this Luke started grasping for ways to stand out from being another Mental Outlaw clone.

1st Luke started shilling credit cards, he even disabled all crypto payments on his POD bookstore because Kenny hates the debt based financial system.

2nd Luke took an anti-gaming stance because Kenny occasionally plays vidya with his gf.

3rd Luke took an anti phone and anti gun position because Kenny carries both as part of his EDC

4th, Luke stopped making his videos in the woods because Kenny took over his family farm and made a couple videos about it. Luke just can't stand living in Kenny's shadow.

5th, Luke became anti restaurant because Kenny works with local restaurants to get organic food scraps for his animals and sells the meat and eggs back to the restaurant

And the most hilarious LARP of all is Luke pretending to be a Christian so he could enhance his E-begging and associate himself with Terry Davis despite desktop ricing being his greatness programming accomplishment.
