Linux Display Scaling Almost Makes High DPI Monitors Usable
Display scaling and fractional scaling under X and Linux in general is a convoluted mess with too many different things to configure that all conflict with each other so today I thought why don't I go over a lot of the approaches and talk about how they work and if they actually make high DPI and high resolution monitors actually usable, short answer they sort of do, the long answer is this is a 25 minute video so it's not that simple to deal with.

Partitioning your drive is something that basically everyone on Linux does but what purpose does it actually serve and is there any reason why it might be better to avoid creating partitions in your drive in the first place, well it turns out that in some situations it is better to ignore it. But if you need access to swap space on file systems like btrfs or you want to dual it might be something that you require.

DistroTube decided to finally try out YouTube Shorts but it seems like he doesn't know how that format actually works and made something that isn't considered one at all.

Both the Mac App Store and iOS store have an interesting history with the GPL and the FSF for obvious reasons the FSF doesn't like Apple but can you use GPL licenses like GPLv2 and GPLv3 on the iOS stores. The answer isn't that simple.

I've seen my fair share of terminal file managers and some of them are admittedly quite strange but today we're looking at a project that kind of bridges the gap between terminal file manager and pure cli commands called clifm

Documentation is incredibly important but somehow we've got to a point where some people think that having good documentation is a bad thing or that it somehow makes the software for advanced users, I completely disagree and think if it's for advanced users the documentation is even more important.

If you see someone without a semi-transparent terminal how could you not want to copy that. Today I look at the compton compositor which among other things allows you to add transparency to your applications.

In early October the new version of MacOS, known as Catalina was dropped and it seems like it hasn't been without it's hiccups. The main being that Apple has now officially dropped support for 32-bit applications which may not seem like a major issue but a lot of 3rd party applications are either 32-bit or use 32-bit installers. The problem is with a new function known as notarization which is Apple's method of verifying if you're application is not malicious by forcing you to have it reviewed by Apple, however even after it has been accepted it still may not function.

The Apple M1 linux project has been getting better and better and better but one chip threatened to derail the project, the Apple M2 but it turns out that getting Asahi Linux running was simpler than I expected.
