Punkrock History (a Pixelfed account) in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

I'm new to the fediverse and can't access the link.

I'm on pixelfed.ca and logged in, but the link demands that I log into an account on pixtagram.social. (I also did a global search for "punk rock history" but it doesn't show up.)

Is there a way I can see it without creating a pixtagram.social account?

驅魔警察 Magic Cop (1990) Cantonese audio / English subtitles (lemmy.ca)
 

If you loved horror-comedy Mr Vampire, then you'll want to see Lam Ching-Ying return as the "vampire"-fighting Taoist priest, only this time he's also a modern-day Hong Kong cop, fighting a drug gang that employs ghosts and the hopping dead!

Album Club #5 - D.O.A. - Hardcore 81 (1981) - [Sunday Album Club] in c/[email protected]

Thanks for this!

  • "Man, the energy! The speed! YES, YES, YEEEESSSS!"
  • "Wait... is that Communication Breakdown?... I love it!"
  • "SMASH THE STATE! GENERAL STRIKE! RACE RIOT: DON'T BUY IT! BURN IT DOWN!" All still needed in 2025 :(

Only discovered D.O.A. a few years ago (thanks to the posts of Vancouverite Philip Random on Metafilter), first time listening to the whole album.

Kind of fun then finally watching some old Vancouver-shot Stephen J. Cannell shows on free streaming, and seeing Wiseguy's Ken Wahl standing in a phone box making a call with a big old D.O.A. poster right by his head.

Maybe time for a drinking game: drink every time you see a D.O.A. or nomeansno poster, flyer or sticker in a Stephen J. Cannell show. (Resulting in Dutch courage to finally smash the state?)

We already saw the cognitive dissonance of people gurgling the last words "COVID's a liberal hoax" as they drowned to death on their own bodily fluids filling their lungs. Literally no amount of reality can sway people who just won't accept it.

Colour-differentiated workspaces (pixelfed.ca)
 

Using Linux Mint 22.1 Xfce. cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ca/post/40243032

New to Lemmy.

And new to workspaces. I'd get confused at first which workspace I was on.

Different backgrounds helped a bit, but I'm almost always in maximized windows.

I wanted to have different colours for windows, panel etc but couldn't.

So I adjusted panel opacity to 95% on Enter, 75% on Leave. That allows the background colour to bleed through.

A user on the Linux Mint forums suggested adjusting workspace margins to let the background show even when windows are maximized.

So now I have an 8-pixel strip of desktop showing just above the panel. Combined with the lowered panel opacity, I never have to wondr anymore what workspace I'm on.

  • Workspace [1/2/3] with windows minimized.
  • Workspace [1/2/3] with window maximized, panel at "Leave" opacity of 95%.
  • Workspace [1/2/3] with window maximized, panel at "Enter" opacity of 75%.

(I read somewhere that it's better to host images for Lemmy on Pixelfed. So I made my first post there with all the screenshots, and linked to it. Hope that works.)

PS: Anyone have any other ideas to help distinguish workspaces at a glance?

European alternatives to GitHub & VS Studio Marketplace (lemmy.ca)
 

On the database website, I didn't see any alternatives to GitHub, or even a category for that I could submit to.

"Software development, collaboration & hosting"?

Here are some:

Alternative to... lots of stuff: GitHub, Google, Gmail, Google Docs, Discord, Skype, Reddit, Twitter etc

  • Disroot (Netherlands, non-profit)

Alternative to Microsoft VS Studio Marketplace (extensions for VS Studio IDE)

Open source alternative to Microsoft VS Studio IDE, with Microsoft telemetry removed
