You can always try distros that are bundled with wm preconfigured, like fedora i3/sway spin or endeavourOS i3/sway/bspwm/ edition. It comes with software preinstalled and tied to the wm. It's also easy to understand as their config files includes comments either officially or provided by the community.

Change the wallet password in KWalletManager to be the same as your login password. It auto-unlocks at login via the PAM module but only if the wallet uses the same password.

And yes, you "don't even use it", applications use it to store secrets securely.

Why aren't they relasing 1080p movies on DVD? You could easily fit a 1080p movie on a DVD disc with modern codecs and compression techniques like H.264 MPEG-4 AVC H.264 MP4 AV1 VP8 VP9 WEBM and other.

It's a bit late for this kind of thing. Even bluray is 20 year old tech at this point. something like this has happened before though, VCD used mpeg-1 while SVCD, which still uses regular CDs uses mpeg-2
note that while you can put newer formats on a disc, it won't play on a dvd player. At best you could make a bluray/avchd format movie and out that on a physical dvd to play on a bluray player, but it won't cost much less than using a bluray disc

Aren't most DVD players manufactured in last 20 years compatible with at least DivX? You could always just pack in a second standard DVD disc just in case the DivX one doesn't work, it will just cost $0.50 more.

Anyone knows a general method for day 12? I put two pruning mechanisms in my backtracking (symmetry and connected area space checking) and they're not good enough at pruning paths. Every solution I've come across uses the meme answer.
>>
>>107594811
You clearly didn't prune enough since you should be able to prune away all the official inputs.
What you call the "meme answer" are perfectly valid pruning conditions.
If your your solution can solve the example, which doesn't get pruned away like that, you've got a good enough general solution.
>>
>>107594811
Nothing is good enough in general, there's going to exist some adversarial or degenerate case that takes exponential time no matter what your algorithm is. That's the whole point of the problem.
>>
>>107594811
>Anyone knows a general method for day 12?
Start by splitting the input into "trivial yes", "trivial no", and "difficult". You can do that with not much code. Try using that dumb code with the actual input data. Know that the "difficult" case is very difficult; finding ways to avoid doing the hard part may be advantageous.

I fucking hate getting FL tokens from the advent calendar. Every time it happens it feels like a slap in the face, especially on the trackers where they expire.
Do they think I'm some nigger? I don't need a token to be able to download what I want. I already generate enough BP to not have to care about that. What the fuck am I supposed to do with this token?

And while I'm ranting, the fact that you can get immediate personal freeleech for x hours on HDB us also retarded. What if I don't want to download anything at this exact minute? This is even worse than an expiring freeleech token since I at least have some level of agency over when I activate it.
>>
>>107596930
There are better trackers out there, have you tried joining and participating in them?
>>
>>107596930
The advent it's just a fun extra thing they do for the Christmas spirit. It's not supposed to be useful. I don't need upload or BP on any tracker, and if you do then you have a problem since basically every top tracker is easy as shit if you actually use it and give back what you take.
>>
>>107597060
I am talking about HDB, BHD, and ATH mainly.
BTN is also extremely useless since BP and upload are totally meaningless.
