  • Out of curiosity, which client and OS sent the messages in question, and which client and OS says it can't decrypt them?

    I've seen that behavior in the past, but like I said, it has been more than a few months. It's possible that at least one end of your conversation is using a client that hasn't received the recent-ish fixes. It might be helpful if we could identify it.

  • Mumble is great. I don't think there's anything with better voice quality.

    I hope Element Call comes close when it's out of beta. Using a single app for both text and voice chat would be slightly more convenient than using two.

  • Most clients are probably waiting until it's out of beta before they implement it. From what I've seen of the design, it does look pretty great. Looking forward to it being fully specced and released.

  • When was the last time you used it? They've been working hard on fixing the encryption bugs, and it shows. I haven't seen a glitch in... maybe half a year now?

  • And a terrible way to abbreviate things, IMHO.

  • It's pronounced just like gif, right?

  • Also, there's a well-known reason for this that is plainly obvious to anyone who has been keeping up on US news over the past year.

    This doesn't belong here.

  • For books, I got more use from Harbison & Steele's C: A Reference Manual than K&R. It has been a long time, though, so it's possible that a great new book exists now.

    For online, I recommend bookmarking this site: https://cppreference.com/w/c.html

  • No mention of Cantata, nor acknowledgement of Amarok’s recent revival. Whatever the reason might be for those omissions, this article doesn’t do a very good job of representing the state of linux music players.

  • I don't think I agree about it being more confusing than "tech", since the latter has become nearly synonymous with "tech stocks" and "consumer electronics" in popular news and media. The word itself invites more of the problem.

    Fair point about the lack of renaming.

  • Thank you.

    Sadly, the financial world has trained much of the population to think "technology" means "anything vaguely related to computers or businesses that use them". As a result, various technology communities are flooded with uninteresting posts that really belong in stock market and business news categories. (This drove me away from the one on lemmy.world.)

    I wonder if naming this one c/technologies instead of c/tech would make the difference more clear, and intuitively encourage staying on topic.

  • Oddly enough, Notepad++ doesn’t really have a full featured native Linux alternative

    Geany and Notepad++ are built on the same text editing component.

  • The qualification was established in the first sentence.

    And nothing about my comment suggested being upset or trying to force a view on anyone else.

    Good day.

  • Did you mean to reply to someone else?

    Because your comment makes no sense as a response to what I wrote.

  • You haven't said what model it is, but if it's a model 2B, it can be a pretty good 1080p media player with LibreELEC 9.2. A newer model might do well with the current LibreELEC version.
