I must say, that was the smoothest Debian version upgrade I've ever done. I updated my own personal workstation from Debian 12 to the new Debian 13 release several days ago; 13 came out in early August, but I've been so busy.

No major issues. I run a *lot* of weird shit on my machine. I usually am down for half a day when I upgrade.

I did have to re-build LXDE. Ended up just using the one from apt for now, but I normally run my own modified one built from source.

I love Debian. It's the best.

minor issues so far:

* mpv: scroll wheel now changes volume, rather than skipping back/forward frames. i consider this a bug. having to switch to the window to use arrows to change scene is annoying. i will be fixing this.

* transmission-gtk completely b0rked. i switched to the qt version.

* still doesn't package librewolf, but i build that from source. no worries.

* pipewire still sucks. but everything does. it takes me longer to adapt to change.

* obconf b0rked. library issue. will fix.

I just realized a couple days ago that it’s time to upgrade my laptop. I’m happy to hear that the process went smoothly for you, and I’m hoping for the same.

I may regret sharing this BUT we already own a number of the songs here.

The super creative folks at vole.wtf created VTV, a parody of the original MTV music video channel that plays some of the silliest novelty songs ever recorded. The player pulls random songs from YouTube to provide a unique musical experience for every viewer, with their permission, of course.

I've released version 0.3.8 of my WIP #Psion Agenda-like "Pygenda" app targeting keyboard-equipped PDAs running Linux (e.g. #GeminiPDA, #CosmoCommunicator, #PinePhone with keyboard).

The main additions this release are:
• Anniversaries – something that Psion Agenda had, but which isn't in the iCal spec.
• Calendar styles, so you can set CSS for entries depending on the entry's calendar source (see photo for example).

I think the appropriate term is Bullet Heaven, not auto-battler, they're two entirely different genres of games

The whole external plugin thing is a bad form IMO. I get that moving the pi (or clone) interior to case would necessarily require a thicker case, but if the whole point is that it's powered by the pi, that's exactly what should be done. Flip it upside down for heat dissipation and slide it under the corner; protects the ports and connectors, and the pi itself, rather than leaving it in a position where a cat could destroy it all in a casual step. That's worth an extra ¼" in the back.

this sounds interesting. But how to you acquire the games to then flash to an SD card?

Nice.

And when you place a game of 50GB on an SD card or BluRay, what sort of performance are we looking at in terms of startup and loading times?

I like the idea, I just think it will be incredibly niche.

@ljrk @dalias but I do also agree that it should have been mandated to browser companies, so users get one dedicated spot for it, not left up to companies to do however they wish and attempt to skirt the rulings
