Not sure, search on "screenshot lazy load Fireshot" or "screenshot lazy load Linkwarden" does not turn up anything conclusive.

Do you have an example?

FAMF: Files As Metadata Format in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

And like you said: all tooling for files works for this .... For example I use F2 (highly recommended btw) for bulk editing filenames based on regex patterns. This could easily used to edit metadata in bulk.

I like this ... a lot.

Is it new?

If there isn't even a todo task manager that handles notes this way, it is. Because man are there myriad implementations of that stuff.

It's also the use cases supported by Linkwarden:

This, but for a Fireshot like tool. Screenshot and pdf of webpages in their entirety by scrolling while shotting. In bulk, with CLI.

I do see valid use cases for pc in a test-exam-facility (meaning 80 pc without personal login) or pc in kiosk mode.

Was wondering....

If I would invest $10 a month .... How many computing power I could get ... For an Adnauseam-As-A-Service server ... And how many ad-budget that would vaporize?

Would it make $100, $1000 or more ad budget worthless?

Just curious what the numbers would be?

Winamp is going open source, and it feels like the early 2000s again in c/[email protected]

Agree, also I never encountered other software so flexible in user interface. Every feature can be placed with panels everywhere to your own liking. The whole app interface is like a canvas. Took me a while to get the hang of it but after that ...

Wished other apps were this flexible.

How to unpin "Search with Google" from my search bar? in c/[email protected]

If you wouldnt mind getting rid of Google search entirely ... settings, search, select Google, remove. I assume there is nothing to pin after that?

team-synchronized georeferenced map software? in c/[email protected]

Like Felt? https://felt.com/ Not free or anything and although OSM based I dont think their geo-stack is "open".

How to speed up accessing lots of files on another computer? Some kind of local cache? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago (2 children)

One of the few times I miss Files-on-demand for Win11. Connect an Office365 library with 500 GB to my laptop with an 128 GB harddrive. Integrates with file explorer, only caches local what you open, after a while you can "free space", meaning deleting local cache version. NextCloud has the same on Win11 because its an OS feature.

Any Calendar app for windows? in c/[email protected]

Sometimes I wish we could re-allocate half the dev hours poured in to the 10th txt/code editor, music player or terminal app in to this kind of thing.

/run/user/1000: What to do with it? (lemmy.ml)
submitted 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

My main question is about /run/user/1000:

  • Should I avoid touching it?
  • Could I delete it?
  • Is there something wrong with it?

Background: I'm fairly new to Linux and just getting used to it.

I use fsearch to quickly find files (because my filenaming convention helps me to get nearly everything in mere seconds). Yesterday I decided to let it index from root and lower instead of just my home folder.

Then I got a lot of duplicate files. For example in subfolders relating to my mp3 player I even discovered my whole NextCloud 'drive' is there again: /run/user/1000/doc/by-app/org.strawberrymusicplayer.strawberry/51b78f5c/N

Searching: Looking for answers I read these, but couldnt make sense of it.

Puzzled:

  • Is this folder some RAM drive so my disk doesnt show anything strange? Because this folder doesnt even show up at the root level.
  • Are these even real? Because the size of it (aprox 370 GB) is even bigger then my disksize (screenshot).

Any tips about course of (in)action appreciated.

Although the headline focusses on a obvious category of media, it really can go wrong on a lot of other categories as well.
