OBS worked pretty well for me last time I used it, using the basic package Debian provided.

Screenshot:
I had to use Piper to get exotic features like having mouse 6, 7, 8 buttons function as mouse 6, 7, 8, rather than the default of alt-tab and ctrl-v.
Limonene@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•UK police probe Bob Vylan's festival chants against Israeli military, as US revokes band's visasEnglish1·5 days agoThey should be more neutral in a non-opinion piece. They quote a lot more people saying pro-genocide things than they quote people saying anti-genocide things. They quoted pro-genocide politicians and pro-genocide BBC staff. They did not give the musicians any opportunity to respond to the article.
Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza has inflamed tensions around the world, triggering pro-Palestinian protests in many capitals and on college campuses. Israel and some supporters have described the protests as antisemitic, while critics say Israel uses such descriptions to silence opponents
Let’s consider the two positions mentioned in this paragraph:
-
Israel should stop committing genocide
-
Israel should continue committing genocide, and position 1 is antisemitic
The first position is described as “pro-Palestinian”, as if these protesters support the Palestinian military (Hamas) and want them to win. This is incorrect. These people mostly just want the genocide to end.
The second position is a shitty opinion, but also contains an overt falsehood. It’s an objective fact that it’s false, and that fact should be reported in the story, but it isn’t.

Limonene@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•When you work for a company owned by a A..hole3·5 days agoLast company where I faced external suppliers, I had to take a training where they said we couldn’t accept any item worth more than like $20, except food or alcohol during a presentation. But we could accept such items on behalf of the company, and they would be raffled off to a random employee. One time a guy in purchasing got a giant brass horse head from a Chinese supplier. I guess nobody signed up for the raffle, so it became a permanent fixture in the cafeteria.
Sure, here are instructions for getting Linux Mint running: https://www.linuxmint.com/download.php
These instructions are for creating a USB flash drive that functions as both a live environment or an installer. If you don’t want to install it yet, this allows you to try it out while booting just from the flash drive, without modifying your hard drive at all.

Limonene@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Congressman Brandon Gill tells mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani "Go back to the Third World"47·7 days agoI feel like the US is more like a Second World country. By “Second World”, I mean the countries that are more aligned to Russia than to NATO. That description now fits the US, unfortunately.
Limonene@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Why is Lemmy attempting to radicalise people to enforce class wars?6·7 days agoDo you have any evidence of major AI generated memes and comments? Sometimes I see an obvious AI image (and down vote it), and some communities are made for the purpose of AI so I blocked them. But aside from that, have you found much generative AI slop?
And if so, how would you fix that in code? Some sort of captcha? I think the volume is low enough that it wouldn’t help.
Limonene@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•The Trump Administration is Building a National Citizenship Data System; State and county election officials can now check the citizenship status of their entire voter lists.English8·7 days agoYour post is blatant disinformation. Undocumented immigrants overwhelmingly vote not at all. Voting illegally in the US is difficult, and often prosecuted.
I live in the US. Most of the people I know are Democrat-aligned. None of them want undocumented immigrants to vote. None of them import undocumented immigrants.
Limonene@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump says he’ll withhold money from New York if Mamdani becomes mayor11·8 days agoI think people are more pissed off and divided than they have been in a very long time. It’s hard to say how close we are to a civil war, though. There’s been a lot of propaganda for a long time saying “violence is not the answer” (even though sometimes it is), and “violence has no place in our system of government” (even though the government abuses its own monopoly on violence to imprison and kill innocent, peaceful people).
It feels like the media in the US is less reliable than it’s ever been in my lifetime, and would probably suppress as much as possible any information that would support open rebellion.
Limonene@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If you had to live the rest of your life in single or triple digit temperatures F° (-13 or 38 C°)which would you choose?7·8 days agoFirst choice: 292 K
Second choice: 9 C
If we’re talking only outdoor temperature, third choice is 100 F, because air conditioning exists, and my peppers would thrive.
If it’s ambient indoor temperature too, then I pick 9 F, which is unpleasant, but survivable. At 100 F indoors, you will be constantly sweating for the rest of your life.
If gender is what’s in your pants, then twice a week my gender is your dad.
When you switch to an admin account on Windows, there are still files owned by “TrustedInstaller” that you can’t touch, and processes owned by “System” that you can’t terminate.
Linux doesn’t have that. When you switch to root, you can kill any process. You can modify or delete any file.
Limonene@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•A powerful tool in Trump’s immigration crackdown: The routine traffic stop4·13 days agoa Tennessee Highway Patrol checkpoint
These checkpoints are illegal in all of the US. Cops can’t stop a driver without a reason. I know that’s not much consolation to someone who is arrested during a stop for no reason.
She drove because her husband, Hilario Martínez García, 46, is undocumented and cannot obtain a license in Tennessee
During a traffic stop, cops can ask the driver for a driver’s license. There is no reason to ask the passengers for ID, and if the passengers are asked, they don’t have to give ID. They may have to give their name in some jurisdictions, but cops usually need a reason for asking for the name, and being a passenger at a road checkpoint isn’t a reason.
It seems clear to me that these cops are operating outside the law, and probably have been since before this immigration stuff.

It was some problem with the javascript in their site. Probably related to captcha or something. Yes, I tried multiple computers, multiple browsers, even tried registering on a library’s computer.
Looks like their site is less shit now, but it’s still awful.

I’ve never heard anyone say that Flatpaks could result in losing access to the terminal.
My only problem with Flatpaks are the lack of digital signature, neither from the repository nor the uploader. Other major package managers do use digital signatures, and Flatpaks should too.
