gyrfalcon@beehaw.orgMto World News@beehaw.org•Greg Bovino, other federal agents investigated for Operation Metro Surge actionsEnglish1·1 month agoHello! Thank you for posting in the World News community. While I’m not able to read the full article due to a paywall, I think this submission may be better suited for Beehaw’s US News community. Please consider posting there in the future if you have similar news you would like to share. Thanks!
Huh, nothing super jumps out to me as an obvious tell, but the last bit is talking about some weird stuff with NTFS. Do you have a drive with Windows or formatted by Windows mounted maybe? Something could be up with that drive, or if you’re using it for something important to the system that could be a problem. You can just follow the recommendation in the log and use
chkdskon it but that could potentially be destructive to the data on the drive so be careful and make backups if needed.
Is there anything in the journal? If you’re not familiar, try something like
journalctl -o short-precise -k -b -1and then look for anything weird.

So much so that I am thinking of rereading World War Z!

'bv*[ext=mp4][vcodec!^=av01]+ba[ext=m4a]/b[ext=mp4][vcodec!^=av01]'. Single quotes needed to keep shell expansion from fighting me, not sure if that will be an issue for you. You may have intended this, but the extension restriction does mean that you’ll sometimes skip “better” formats like VP9 if they are webms or something, and you can specify an output mux if that is what you are trying to achieve.

[]somewhere in your format specifications. Let me try it and see.

Not sure if it would technically count, but it’s giving bill of attainder for sure.

-vfor verbose? I just tried it on my admittedly very different EndeavourOS system and the original command started right up downloading a video

gyrfalcon@beehaw.orgMto Gaming@beehaw.org•How's gaming and streaming on T-Mobile home internet?English4·6 months agoI have not used T-Mobile specifically but I did try out a 5g home internet product and one thing to look out for is that trees can interfere with your signal, so make sure there’s not trees between where you’ll put your access point and the towers. If you’re in the northern hemisphere and the leaves have fallen also keep in mind that the signal could be affected more when the leaves come back.

Hello! Is this something you run, or just a project you are enthusiastic about? We have some users who are reporting this because it does read a bit like an advertisement, so if you could clarify that would be helpful. Thanks!

Hello! Thank you for the post to World News. Just wanted to let you know that submissions like this one might be more appropriate in our Technology community, for future reference.
I’ve been using EOS for about a year and a half, and for the year and a half I used Manjaro, and this is spot on. EOS is just a better experience, plus they’ve got much cooler default backgrounds!
Seems like you have a good alternative that doesn’t require a script, but for tasks like this I like to recommend the book Automate the Boring Stuff with Python. It’s free to read online, and if I recall correctly has essentially exactly this task as one of the exercises.
