Born in 2004, I barely used the internet as a kid. Most my video games were off of CDs, and I occasionally got to use my dad's Steam account. In like 4th grade I played some Wizards101, League of Legends, and some flash games, and started watching Minecraft youtubers. Besides that I mostly used the internet to download Minecraft mods. I kinda eased into the internet that way so I never really was surprised at having so much accessible to me.

I didn't get on social media until I got on Reddit in high school. I tried Tumblr a bit but didn't like it since it was too different. I still don't use Twitter or anything, just Reddit and Lemmy and occasionally Pinterest.

It takes some fiddling, but I've been using HDR on Linux since Plasma 6 came out. If you don't have an AMD GPU it would probably be really difficult to set up though.

 

A screenshot of a movie with two pirates talking to each other. The subtitles say "You can't just say 'lol' at the end of a sentence and think that makes everything alright". The text that was previously behind "lol" has been covered with a black rectangle and overwritten.

Yeah, I used it a couple years ago, and for walking especially it seemed really cool, since it has all sorts of extra data like slopes and benches or whatever. But there are a whole ton of settings everywhere, which is cool that you can customise everything but also a bit of a mess. Definitely more for power users it seems.

Yes, every video you download or stream is actually compressed quite a lot, the bitrate just determines how much compression is applied. Higher bitrate means the file is bigger and less compression is done, while low bitrate means the video has a lot less bits to store all that data and so has to do more compression.

It's height in centimeters

Gamescope generally helps with alt+tab issues.

How is Backpack Hero by the way? I played the demo years ago and liked it but haven't bought the actual game yet.

Sounds kinda like NixOS, although that's not platform-agnostic.

You can also run the game at 1080p and use FSR to upscale it to native resolution, that's what I often do on my 4k monitor.

There's browser extensions for it

Technically, the morning is when the sun rises and night is when the sun sets. The sun decides to set earlier and we just have to go along with having more night.

If you run mpv https://url it will stream it from youtube and play it in mpv, without having to wait for the whole video to download first.
