I've only used aliases twice so far. The first was to replace yt-dlp with a newer version because the version that comes pre-installed in Linux Mint is too outdated to download videos from YouTube. The second was because I needed something called "Nuget". I don't remember exactly what Nuget is but I think it was a dependency for some application I tried several months ago.
alias yt-dlp='/home/j/yt-dlp/yt-dlp'
alias nuget="mono /usr/local/bin/nuget.exe"
On Linux, I'm using Firefox as my main browser and Vivaldi as my secondary browser.
On android, some of my devices have Firefox, some of them have Fennec F-Droid and the devices that don't have very much storage space have Via Browser. If you're wondering why I have both Firefox and F-Droid's Fennec, it's because I used to just use Fennec but then at some point F-Droid announced that Fennec was outdated and it was missing several security updates that were present in Firefox. I switched to Firefox on the devices I use browsers on more actively but I didn't see a reason to switch all of them.
It's been added to the F-Droid archive. I don't know exactly what F-Droid's threshold is for moving apps to the archive but Blockinger hasn't been updated in over 10 years, so I guess it makes sense.
The archive isn't accessible through browsers but it can be enabled on both the official F-Droid client and third-party clients.
So far, the only thing I know for sure that I would consider using it for is to use JoiPlay to play RPG Maker games that I can't get working with my normal methods but at least on my current computer/distro, I'm having issues with audio crackling.
I might find other apps to use later but for the most part, I just kind of keep android apps to android.
This is the reason box86/64 exists.
I once annoyed one of my friends in high school while he was trying to write a story/book (I don't remember if he was actually trying to write his own book or if it was just a story). One day, I saw that he was typing a sentence that said something about one of the characters "whipping out his cellphone" and I said "oh, is that what we're calling it now". I would then occasionally look back at his story without actually reading anything and laugh a little. At first he thought it was funny but at some point he started getting annoyed and kept telling me to stop.
I haven't tried that many hot sauces but I like hot sauces that have a good mix of both heat and flavor. What I prefer depends on what I'm eating, so sometimes I prefer Tapatio and other times I prefer (real) Sriracha. I do also sometimes use other hot sauces like the ghost pepper ranch from Wendy's when I can get them.
It's been a while since I last laughed that hard but it was when Vinesauce played Gat Life: Boyfriend Bar.
Yeah, blood has a smell. I don't know why but some people can't smell it at all, while some people can smell it from pretty far way. I've never tested exactly how sensitive I am to the smell but, for example, if a woman is having her time of the month, I can usually smell it from several feet away.
I had the cliche phase of thinking that I was a vampire because a combination of a few things. I have a problem with my teeth where it caused my "K9s" to protrude outwards, I don't have a normally detectable pulse and I've always been able to smell other peoples blood from abnormally far away but I can never smell my own. I know now that these are things that can happen to anyone but back then, I didn't know any better.
I think the dream may have been influenced by at least one of those types of games but I don't remember which one at this point.
Edit: Last night, I used the "Fix MergeList problems" option in the maintenance tab of software sources and at least for now, it seems to be working. So I probably wont need help with this anymore, hopefully.
Every hour or two, the Update Manager keeps giving me an error message saying that my APT configuration is corrupt and that I should switch to another Linux Mint mirror. It usually goes away when I do a manual refresh but it just keeps coming back. I have also tried switching to a different mirror but I get the same error. It also tells me to run apt-get update but even if I add "sudo" it just gives me an error message saying to run apt-get update.
It happened again so I'm adding screenshots in case they help. The first is the initial error, then it's the error I get when I try to change the repository and the third is the error I get when I try running the command it suggested:
I looked through my bash history and it looks like I needed it to build an Xbox eeprom editor for Xemu. Xemu doesn't (or at least didn't, I haven't used newer versions yet) have a built in eeprom editor and editing the Xbox eeprom is required for enabling both wide screen and higher resolutions for the games that support them natively.
I just looked at Xemu's documentation, and it looks like they've added a link to an online eeprom editor, so the editor I used (which they do still link to) is no longer required.
