nanugo: Make Anki decks from your handwritten pdf files (with cli or Python) - Lemmy.world

This has been my side project for the past couple of days now. I made this because I needed it. Thought someone else might also want this so I made a full cli for it. Hope you enjoy!

How fluent do you think one have to be to be considered "bilingual"? - Lemmy.world

Do you think that the person must be 1. born in a bilingual country / completely indifferent to native, educated speakers of the language 2. able to write, speak and hear with little to no grammatical errors in almost any situations / able to take college level classes without language barrier. 3. able to conduct any casual conversations with little to no grammatical errors or worse? English is not my first language but I’m quite confident myself. And I’m always torn between saying that I’m bilingual or just fluent. A lot of the times, I think in English and sometimes even dream in English but I also have never spent a single day in an English speaking country in my life. It’s weird to know that I’m not a bilingual per se but to think like one. Just wanted to know if anyone had similar experience.

SuperTuxCart is unironically one of the best games I've played for a while. - LemmyWorld

One of the reasons is because I don’t play games that often but… It’s actually nice to play. And bonus points for having all those FOSS mascots as a playable character. It’s just hilarious.

People should stop saying VPN doesn't make you anonymous. - Lemmy.world

Before you get mad: I know it acutally does not. But… IMO, you’re probably fine with only using VPN. That is with all the settings and additional measures done and with credible VPN provider, which, in my case, Mullvad. If you’re planning another 9.11 or for some dick reason decided to share no no porns, VPN is definitely not enough and I’m pretty sure you already know that. A lot of reputable VPN providers are constantly poked bt the authorities. They give nothing because they have nothing. You’re fine if you’re just trying to bypass stupid regional censorship or download bunch of movies. That is, again, with proper security measures of course. I’ve seen some people saying that you should use Tor for anonymity when someone’s just asking about how to use VPN better or whatnot. Tor is better in terms of anonymity, sure. But for most of the cases, VPN is fine.

Skysilk deleted paid VPS after 3 days notice, blaming customer for not responding in time. - Lemmy.world

Just started hosting Vaultwarden. It's freaking awesome. - Lemmy.world

It was one of the easiest to setup and it works flawlessly. I’m a bit paranoid about losing my data even with the backups… Any recommendation?

I'm unsubbing !Lemmy.world. For a good reason. - Lemmy.world

I now feel very much comfortable in Lemmy than Reddit. I don’t have to nor want to constantly hear about reddit. They’re jackasses. But I don’t feel the need to shit on reddit anymore. Let them die or be “this too shall pass” story or whatever. Idc. We’re going nowhere if all we’re talking about is Reddit. I care about Lemmy.world and lemmy as a whole. I hope mod will either make this community free from reddit debacle or make a new community dedicated for announcements or such. People here can also spend their time writing about literally anything else than Reddit. Until then, I’m leaving here. (Check out [email protected] s’il vous plait!)

Any possible way to download/record videos from DRM video player software? - Lemmy.world

There’s a DRM video player(won’t tell you the name as it’s only a domestic software in non-English speaking country) that prevents recording by literally any means I can think of. These are the methods that does not work - Using screen recorder: DRM software force kills all the softwares related to screen recording/sharing. It goes completely black if you try to do with some niche software. - Using VM: DRM software detects VM and force stops - Using Video capture card: it is somehow blocked. I do not know any specific detail - Using yt-dlp: It’s using it’s own proprietary software and I failed to get the url of the video. Any possible solutions I might be missing out on?
