I would assume that it will work as long as Deno is installed somewhere that’s in $PATH. They still haven’t merged the pull request that will make yt-dlp use Deno yet. There should be more information once they release the new version. Yt-dlp 2025.10.22 included a fix that gets some formats working again though.
Programs running on Wine still have access to all of the files that you do. They won’t be able to mess with system files unless they can find some sort of privilege escalation exploit in Wine though.
Anything that relies on an internet connection that should be unnecessary is a bad idea.
It’s a known issue. They are working on a fix, but it’s not ready yet. It will require an external JavaScript library though.
Yes, there are several options for excluding files and directories. There’s the --exclude option to exclude a file or directory. There’s also the --exclude-from option that lets you specify a file that contains a list of files and directories to exclude.
There’s not much point in backing up games that are easily downloaded again. Just backup the saves and settings.
Yes, you can still dual boot. I would recommend using two drives since it will make things easier. You can even use secure boot and bitlocker if you want to.
It’s a WebDAV server, so it’s more like FTP than Syncthing.
The energy density of sodium-ion batteries keeps improving. They are getting pretty close to LiFePO4. Chinese EV manufacturers have started using them. Not everyone needs a super long range, especially in places where there are lots of charging stations available.
I think the future for EV batteries is going to be sodium-ion for quite a while. They are good enough for most people and the materials to make them are plentiful.
All of my PCs are malware free.
Bash still saves the command history. You can of course turn that off if you want to. There are also settings to prevent it from saving certain commands. It can also be set to not save commands that are prefixed with a space.
I’ve had a couple of computers with Nvidia cards and all I ever had to do was install the driver from the package manager and reboot. I always had screen tearing issues with them, but that was with cards from 2011 & 2013. I would hope that they’ve fixed that by now.
There is OpenRazer for configuring Razer mice and keyboards.
Even the cheapest SSD you can find will improve the performance quite significantly.
SponsorBlock gets rid of most of the ads that the uploaders put in their videos.
Did du give any permission errors? It can’t count the size of directories that it doesn’t have permission to access.
It will probably keep working fine for years. Eventually some dependency will become incompatible and it will no longer build though.
Any printer that supports Mopria or AirPrint will work on Linux without installing any drivers.
I prefer using older Brother laser printers that don’t have any chips in the toner cartridges. I have an HL-4150CDN and a DCP-7065DN.
I’ve had torrents run for months. Usually with just one seeder that only connects periodically.
You can open “Keyboard Shortcuts” in the menu and change them to whatever you want.
