Actually that might not have been done to deliberately disrupt your flow. Culling elements that are outside of the viewport is a technique used to reduce the amount of memory the browser consumes.

I would recommend checking out LosslessCut. Behind the curtain it runs ffmpeg, so you should be able to find the perfect command.

In the features list:

View ffmpeg last command log so you can modify and re-run modify recent commands on the command line

Be warned though, the hearth rate monitor doesn't work particularly well. And there is no sleep tracking afaik.

If you'd prefer something more reliable (but less open), GadgetBridge is an Android app to interface with commercial smart watches through reverse-engineered protocols.

You should install Rethink and see how much garbage your phone constantly transmits and receives. And this is not even a kernel-level firewall, so who knows how much data Google actually exfiltrates...

I don't know about a constant audio stream, nor about keywords, but I noticed that Google Keyboard sends out some data every time you type anything. It's not even that subtle.

Yeah, you are correct. Docker shares the kernel with the host operating system, it doesn't use hardware virtualization. That's why it's so fast and simple, but it also means it's not a traditional VM and thus comes with some limitations.

This is a screenshot from uBlock Origin, an ad-blocker for browsers. Red means that something is in a block list. There is a lot of red, which means this website uses a lot of stuff that tracks the user or serves ads.

That being said, I've seen much worse.

I might be mistaken, but I think Codeberg is the official public Forgejo instance.

What is it that you don't like about Clevo chassis? I bought one a few years ago and I love it. It's elegant and sturdy in my opinion. It's also easily serviceable, so what's to complain about it?

For what it's worth, I always prefer being redundant if it makes the meaning clearer to a non-native speaker audience.

For instance I didn't know "pandemic" implicitly meant "global". In my ignorance I thought you could have a localized pandemic. But by saying "global pandemic" it makes it more obvious to everyone, including those who, like me, didn't know.

Also I'll personally keep saying "my phone had an LCD display" because it feels smoother than "my phone has a LCD".

As an Italian, I would say that's not the case, not "a lot of Italians are racist". I've had interactions with a few racist people of older generations, but I would say that they are the exception, thankfully.

I suppose in a well configured Docker or Kubernetes environment this doesn't matter that much. Also, in Kubernetes, "secrets" can be passed as read-only files.

I haven't checked, but I assume PulseEffects must have a module to convert stereo to mono.
