I have started following DCP web designers - https://www.youtube.com/user/dcpwebdesigners - they have a lot of good GIMP and LibreOffice tutorials on YouTube
Manjaro Linux 18.0 – Review and Features - http://www.linuxbuzz.com/manjarolinux-18-review-features/ - I have the greatest sympathy for Manjaro, but that green color makes me queasy
'[...] Control by oligarchs, he argues, thwarts rational decision-making, because the short-term interests of the elite are radically different to the long-term interests of society. This explains why past civilisations have collapsed “despite possessing the cultural and technological know-how needed to resolve their crises”. Economic elites, which benefit from social dysfunction, block the necessary solutions.'

'Rich experience' ... 'make our site a richer experience' ...
Ugh! website makers need to stop with the capitalistic terms and experiences NOBODY WANTS.
An honest good experience would be NO TRACKING and NO POPUP/CLICK-TO-CLOSE shit in my face at nearly every fucking website I try to visit.
It's really getting tiring. I don't even like using the web anymore. A necessary evil.
Where is the the wardrobe door to the Narnia web, where no tracking, cookies, marketing, boolsheet exists!?
@johanv Cool! Now, let us see if I actually write stuff. Assume that it will not be particularly regular.
@johanv There is now! I just had to drop in the feed plugin. It is on http://mjjzf.eu/blog.rss .
Gnome 3 pre-flight check
- http://mjjzf.eu/blog/gnome-3 - a few words on what I do to make a fresh Gnome install look nice and usable.
#TodayILearned that it is possible to disable the title bar in Firefox since version 60, so it fits in with the CSD windows in Gnome 3 . Go to Menu > Customise and uncheck Title Bar in the bottom left corner. Success!

It is a week full of releases: here is a new version of #Nextcloud Deck with new team work features, activities & comments, undo and a REST API!

Deepin 15.8 - Attractive and Efficient, Excellent User Experience - https://www.deepin.org/en/2018/11/15/deepin15-8/ - it IS beautiful, I just admit. It is really a creature of its own.
@andyc I thought the first, but I can go for both!
@andyc SDF has serious history.
@ericbuijs @Matter Also, youtube-dl is a VERY active project. They are extremely quick with updates when the services change API.
@Matter @ericbuijs Not quite - for one, it is a visual interface, and it will suggest associated subtitle files for download as well. Youtube-dl will handle the download, but not the additional features.
I am a great fan of youtube-dl.
@andyc Yeah, just... most other places. I am using Grav at the moment (getgrav.org) which uses Markdown markup. It is quite difficult to see what is going on...
@andyc I really hate the trailing spaces. It is very impossible to see.
@ericbuijs Also, consider looking into TV4Ever (http://tv4ever.net) - a Chrome/Chromium extension which will record a lot of streaming flow TV channels. I have used it to record Doctor Who when they were playing on Danish TV.
Really coming to appreciate MusicPiped on Android:
https://musicpiped.devsilver.me/
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/deep.ryd.rydplayer/
It is a YouTube audio streamer, makes it easy to listen to audio when the phone is locked.
I have been listening to the Yes Minister shows!

Write.as is now #FOSS! 🎉 We've named the software behind it #WriteFreely.
WriteFreely lets you self-host a single federated blog or a community of blogs. It's written in Go / #golang, it's lightweight, and runs everywhere -- even on a Raspberry Pi! (We tried 😁)
We just launched v0.1 this weekend, and v0.2 is already coming out early this week. You can try a full demo here: https://pencil.writefree.ly
Get started with hosting or find a permanent instance here: https://writefreely.org
