Looking for a music player
I'm looking for a music player on Pop!_OS that supports playlists, repeating a single track while still being able to swap tracks in the playlist, and also supports fading between songs and when stopping playback. And ideas on what to try?
So far I've tried VLC, Audacious, and Rhythmbox, but none of those seem to support all of those requirements. (Rhythmbox was close but the repeat one from the toolbar plugin doesn't work.)
Edit: Got it working in Rhythmbox after toggling the repeat options a few more times. Still curious if there are other options out there though.

It's a fairly common OS and it's fairly widely acknowledged that GOS is a big driver for Pixel sales.

It’s kind of hard to tell for this image, I think the background is probably real, or at least, created separately. but there are a couple sus features in the foreground. Superman’s right hand, the green jacket, and the apparent facial features of children I mentioned before.
It does have a signature in the bottom right, so I guess you could track down the artist to find out for sure, but with my first comment, I was just pointing out the comedy of kids with facial hair.

Recommend a simple, small cheap laptop < 15" I can chuck in my bag for use in coffee shops!
- I'll buy used, so don't want latest and greatest. It won't be my main laptop.
- to run linux obviously.
- good battery life, light, not too small to use, but large enough to type on (obviously can do without numeric keypad). not too fragile!
- I'll be doing some light python work, perhaps some c/c++ but I'm not after a workhorse, just something for quickly fixing bugs, or making notes on
- sub 200 GBP / 250USD I guess
I'd be interested in hearing recommendations, and also what to avoid!
like this
I got myself an old EEE PC for exactly that purpose. (Except, substitute python with lua).
8h battery life, cost me €20 and does what it's supposed to. Just make sure you get one with an Atom N280 or better. The popular N270 is 32bit only, and more and more programs are dropping 32bit support. Some of them you can DIY compile for 32bit, some you really don't want to.
(For example, compiling Node on an Atom N270 takes around 3 days.)
I had one with an N270 first and replaced it with one with an N450 to get 64bit.
Maxed it out with 2GB RAM, a cheapo €10 SSD that maxes out SATA and overclocked it to 2GHz.
It's not fast by any stretch of the imagination, but it's totally ok for editing text files with Kate and compiling with platformio.

Blender HDR and the reference white issue | About Blender's HDR support on Wayland
From Sebastian Wick’s Mastodon
Blender is getting HDR on Linux via Wayland before Windows! This isn't by accident, but shows how creating a system with a different design creates better results for users and application developers.
Firefox is in this same boat too. It will get HDR support on Linux* sooner than Windows. Firefox currently only supports HDR on MacOS.

I think I've done the opposite of most. After using keepassx for the last 4 or 5 years I switched to ProtonPass.
I value security and privacy but Ive realized some of my processes have become too complex, like using syncthing to keep my keepass on my phone and PC aligned. I'm not confident that older man version of me will be able to keep up so Ive stared valuing simplicity.
Im sure many will argue that it is simple but between backups and keys and passwords it really is a lot, especially with a new device each time.

proton pass vs simplelogin - aliases
I'm trying to migrate off gmail and apple services and ended up getting a domain and going to proton and using simplelogin for making aliases. But now I'm looking at proton pass, which comes free with my plan and lets me create aliases and wondering why I did that.
Ideally, I want nobody to have my main email address. everything gets an alias and dumps into the main. if the main address is found out, I just kill it and get another and point all the aliases to that. if an alias gets spammy or sold off to obnoxious marketing boobs, I kill the alias and create a new one.
I got started with migrating a few things over today into the aliases I had on my domain with simplelogin. I started to wonder what would happen if I replied to any of these and unlike apple hide-my-mail, it looks like these expose my actual address, unless I go through the trouble of going to simplelogin and getting an reverse alias link through them, which is an annoying pain in the ass. looking to see if there was any integration like apple's icloud had, I find proton pass is included in my mail plus plan and lets me do what simplelogin already was doing, complete with my domain being in the alias address!
So my question is why did I set up two seperate services for this? can I reply to incoming emails from the aliases created in proton pass without them revealing my address?
I have needed to get away from google for a while and am finally getting off my ass to do it, but apple hide my email was so simple to use whereas proton seems to have these weird oversights.
So my question is why did I set up two seperate services for this?
Unfortunate side effect of buying someone else's product instead of just making your own.
can I reply to incoming emails from the aliases created in proton pass without them revealing my address?
Yes. It's called a relay for a reason. When you receive an email it will come from a relay address, not the actual sender. You reply to that relay address and then the other party receives your relay address (alias).
Check out DuckDuckGo, they also have an email alias forwarding system like SimpleLogin. I have a different email address/alias for each account that I have and they all end up in my Proton inbox.
Also, you’re able to reply and send email with the DuckDuckGo address from Proton mail.

Created a Post/Group about how to De-Google. The details about my set-up is also there. Hope it helps:
I thought OP wanted to de-google. I use DuckDuckGo because of their duck player; it opens YouTube on a separate window without all the extra stuff you don’t want (just the video you wanted to see). I guess OP can use PeerTube?
I’m quite happy with my Proton Unlimited but it’s not for everyone.
And yeah, I’m a browser hopper.
Yes, you can have multiple duck addresses at the same time. There’s a personal and private duck address.

I also used SimpleLogin and loved it until I subscribed to the Proton products. Like you, I haven’t needed to use SimpleLogin because of Proton Pass. Haven’t used iCloud since 2021 and have no regrets.
Can I create multiple custom Duck Addresses or Email Protection accounts? - DuckDuckGo Help Pages
You can only have one Duck Address enabled per browser, and only one associated with any given forwarding address.DuckDuckGo

Source : I have a Banana-Pi SBC banana-pi.org/en/banana-pi-sbc… and... it works, running Linux proper, with a desktop environment, which is in itself pretty cool IMHO but damn, you have to be patient. That being said "just" already being at that stage on economically affordable hardware is amazing. We are probably not far, say few years at most, with usable RISC-V chips for mundane tasks, e.g. text authoring, coding, Web browsing, but don't expect compilation of a browser, Blender, or gaming on this for few more years. IMHO it will go fast because it's catching up so the path is rather well laid down, which is much harder than innovating and pushing the envelope.

I guess it depends what you mean by "chip production".
AFAICT mostly via Chip War (2022) and reading a bit on the topic there are few bottlenecks, e.g chip design IP like ARM (UK) or lithography machines like ASML (NL) or high efficiency chip production like TSMC (Taiwan) but overall the grip from the US is mostly on democratization and scale with AMD, NVIDIA, Broadcom or even Intel, namely making a LOT of chips, not necessarily high end (some are) or mobile (also some), for a relatively low price. What I mean is that China is already claiming that they are producing about on-par IPS with e.g. Loongson.
So yes there are for sure incumbents based in the US that do not want RISCV and overall open architectures to make significant progress but is it fair to call them "the US" I'm not sure. Are they heavily leaning on US lawmakers to get their positions strengthened? Maybe. Maybe they do not yet do so simply because they don't believe it's a threat yet, nor it might be ever be.
I believe that in chip production you can lock production via innovation but also, like in other sectors, solely with the supply chain. ASML is powerful because they basically own their markets but also because who would contract with newcomers versus a very well established company that can provide all the insurances imaginable that they will indeed deliver on time a specific amount? Why risk it when you are already contracting with the leader?
Sure there is a potential innovator dilemma but what could prevent e.g. NVIDIA or Intel to switch to RISC-V if somehow they can dominate there too thanks to both their existing expertise but also supply chain stronghold?
Risc v is an instruction set architecture not a chip design, the actual hardware implementation of any given risc v processor won't necessarily be open source and available to all, it's just a guarantee that if the spec is implemented then code compiled for risc v will run on a RISC V processor.
China has had access to x86 for years, they've not been able to implement a chip on par with current gen AMD or Intel chips.
US sanctions massively setback RISC-V.
We would have had the Milk-V OASIS last year , something better by now, and the answer to “as good as ARM” would be yes.
But Sophgo, the company making the SoC was accused of helping Huawei get access to restricted technology. So TSMC refused to make their chips. And the Milk-V OASIS was cancelled.
Massive blow to RISC-V.

It definitely has Repeat One.
Otherwise Strawberry is probably the best bet. It's not the slickest looking in terms of modern UI design but it's rock solid and still actively maintained. It's basically the continuation of Clementine (which is largely untouched since 2016) which itself was a continuation of Amarok.
I like Strawberry but I do find the UI a bit jarring in the modern era. It's feature rich and stable though.

Too many times I've experienced selecting something new to play not only replace the currently playing, but replaces the Playlist, and it seems to overwrite it immediately.
