When relying on Free/libre software, and the services provided by those
projects, I try not to be a bother. I download distros using torrents, and seed
when I can. So when they released Debian Trixie, I realized I have a lot of
Debian machines to upgrade, and that would require hitting the Debian
repositories an awful lot. Unless...
I use a lot of web apps. Most of them I run in Firefox, but there are occasions where I need to run them in another browser, specifically Chromium, for compatibility reasons. I'm looking at you, Microsoft Teams.
After a monumental stint of procrastination, I've finally gotten off my ass and
uploaded the Linux Outlaws podcast
to Archive.org. The main site went down some time ago, and I couldn't bear to
let one of my favorite podcasts fade off into the sunset.
It turns out, the mpv media player (one of my all-time favorite utilities) can play media files located inside of a compressed archive. If you have a bunch of FLAC files in a zip archive, and tell mpv to play that zip archive... it just does.
