  • Spotify to raise prices in September

    Jump

  • The ones I've noticed so far were somewhere in between metal, hyperpop, and generally chaotic electronic music. Specifically:

    • DEATHWISH by poutyface
    • MONSTER ENERGY GUN! by KevinKempt
    • PIN CUSHION by Siiickbrain

    Also:

    • Little Game by Benny
    • mi tawa lon pimeja ni

    There's a bunch of others that I haven't looked through yet. I downloaded a list of songs from my Tidal library with soundiiz so I should do the same with Qobuz then do a diff.

  • I just switched from Tidal to Qobuz and when using Soundiiz like 1/4 of my songs didn't transfer, and when I look songs up a lot of them aren't there at all. The personalized playlist is also disappointing in my experience, so I'm considering switching back.

  • Another Google Pixel 6a catches fire after battery-nerfing update

  • My Pixel 6 Pro battery expanded last year and popped the screen off, and when I contacted support they immediately sent me a new phone and a box to return the old one

    LibreOffice: We still see people on the fediverse recommending OpenOffice, despite it having year-old unfixed security issues

    Jump

  • For documents I started learning Typst and LaTeX a while ago and now I greatly prefer either of them over LibreOffice. Being able to write comments that don't render in the PDF is also very useful (i.e. when I do my homework in LaTeX/Typst I'll put class notes there as well)

  • The point is to protect national interests, not reject free contributions from normal people for non-security critical but useful software projects which is just idiotic

  • How the fuck is banning people in certain countries for something they don't have control over from contributing to small projects like this doing anything but shooting the FOSS ecosystem, which already has a severe shortage of developers, in the foot?

  • By your logic developers in the US shouldn't be allowed to contribute to free software either, after all the US is committing genocides and threatening to invade other countries

  • Personally I use a Guix template I made (Typst, LaTeX) which downloads necessary software/libraries and the LSP and pins the software versions, and I use the Helix text editor for editing. Not sure what the more common methods are. Also Typst's package management is weird.

  • If you're a nerd, also check out Typst and LaTeX. Being able to format your documents with pure code is awesome, and you can also define functions for different things, import libraries to generate graphs, and write comments that don't show up in the document.

  • Ocasio-Cortez says if you feel burnt out by the news lately, that’s ‘exactly’ what Trump wants

    Jump

  • I used to get a lot of news off Instagram, but lately I've noticed that a lot of radical stuff like protests have basically disappeared off my feed, and other people I've talked to have said that this is happening with Twitter as well. Now it's mostly just fear-mongering headlines with no reporting on defensive actions, despite there being tons of protests all over the place in the past few days. The 50501 protests were a lot bigger than I thought they'd be, and the fact that there's barely any reporting on them is extremely concerning and I think is intentional. Meanwhile I've seen an increasing amount of radical stuff pop up on RedNote, like protests and pro-Luigi stuff, while at the same time somehow maintaining a calmer and more unifying vibe (also no ads), so it definitely seems like a better platform (compared to other options that are algorithm-driven) and I've been browsing it more instead of Instagram lately. Also, I'm trying to look for ways to connect with more people IRL, which I think is one of the most important things people can do right now to fight the isolating and divisive design of capitalism.
