Amazon, one of the biggest seller of stuff globally. Yet I can't pay for a product in the .com shop with my credit card from my swiss bank
<infinisil>
Even though literally every other shop on the internet accepts it..
<infinisil>
...?
<samueldr>
infinisil: definitely fraudulent
<samueldr>
why would you even try to buy something on the .com side of the operations?
<samueldr>
(thinking like amazon)
<samueldr>
(or your bank)
<samueldr>
might be your bank actually
<infinisil>
samueldr: " We were unable to process your purchase with your current payment information. Your payment method must be issued by a bank local to the Amazon.com marketplace "
<samueldr>
:|
<samueldr>
now *that's* complete bollocks
<samueldr>
I just had my bank cancel my card because amazon.com did a check to see if my card still existed, and it transpired as an amazon.com check
<samueldr>
since I hadn't bought for over 6 months
<samueldr>
apparently no one gets those checks since the bank thought something was wrong
<samueldr>
though amazon gave me the run around for 4 weeks to try to know if it was legit or not
<ivan>
infinisil: is that for a digital item?
<infinisil>
Amazing..
<infinisil>
ivan: Yeah
<infinisil>
A song
<samueldr>
oh
<ivan>
that isn't really amazon's fault because of how music is licensed
<samueldr>
another different pair of bollocks
<infinisil>
Well literally every other place I bought music from doesn't have a problem with it
<colemickens>
cole-h: oh idk if I said but I also didn't downgrade sway for the gamma regression. it takes a lot to get me to downgrade.
<infinisil>
Guess I'm pirating it then lol
<cole-h>
colemickens: So, gamma regression is still fscked?
<cole-h>
Or rather, it's not just me?
<colemickens>
cole-h: on the machines that I'm using, I've technically never actually seen it work, so I can't say.
<cole-h>
Heh
<colemickens>
cole-h: nouvaeu and whatever pinebookpro is, I think 'intel' tends to be the happier path for the gamma stuff.
<infinisil>
Alright I'll give Google Play a go. Even though I despise Google, it's the next best option
<samueldr>
the pinebook pro is panfrost, most likely
<samueldr>
infinisil: does the artist sell directly?
<infinisil>
Also twice as expensive there
<infinisil>
samueldr: yea
<infinisil>
Oh
<infinisil>
Unless you mean like, directly from a page by the artist themselves?
<infinisil>
Then no
<samueldr>
from the page, or through services like bandcamp
<samueldr>
right
<infinisil>
Also no bandcamp (which would be my go-to)
<samueldr>
I've seen for a label artists that don't link to the bandcamp, but the label has them on their
<samueldr>
theirs*
<infinisil>
Doesn't seem to be the case here
<samueldr>
(I in fact was pleasantly surprised to see that label listing artists on bandcamp directly... and learned that many artists I liked were coincidentally on the same label)
<infinisil>
Google Play: "Each song can be downloaded 2 times on the web"
<infinisil>
Of course there would be something stupid like that
<infinisil>
Anyways, I'm out once I downloaded it once, never coming back
<infinisil>
I should also mention the full text, which makes it not as bad: "This limit does not apply when you use Music Manager to download your entire library to your computer."
<samueldr>
"your" entire library
<infinisil>
Yeah lol
<samueldr>
which you won't be able to use anyway soon as you'll be forced to use youtube music
<{^_^}>
samueldr's karma got increased to 260, it's a crit!
<colemickens>
I was worried at least one of those would be a rickroll.
<samueldr>
good thing there wasn't one
<colemickens>
cole-h: I'm playing through the campaigns for the first time with my partner. The music in H2 was waaay more of a nostalgia trip on its own than I'd expected
<colemickens>
cole-h: I had... unrefined music tastes in HS and the soundtrack album got a lot of play in my bedroom, LOL
<cole-h>
colemickens: wdym unrefined. That song is a banger.
<cole-h>
I was (way) too young to actually play Halo 2 😅
<colemickens>
lol, if you saw the soundtrack from the minidisc I found a while back, you'd understand. the H2 soundtrack was by far the standout among my collection.
<V>
Memorising the YouTube slug for "Never Gonna Give You Up" is useful :)
<cole-h>
I've only memorized the original one
<cole-h>
There are a few reuploads that catch me out every once in a while.
<V>
Thankfully reuploads tend to get taken down
* V
just wrote a prometheus exporter for her firefox tab count
<samueldr>
there should be a feature in youtube to get a new ID for that video
<cole-h>
I have 500+ tabs at the moment
<V>
I have 3101 tabs open at the moment
<cole-h>
I'm about to go through and prune some, though
<V>
I had >3200 tabs open yesterday
<V>
adding them all up together, I probably had something like 3500 open last week before I started closing a bunch
<V>
(and that's not including the 3k so I have lurking in a file somewhere)
<V>
Now I have 32GiB of RAM, there's no reason to skimp on tabs, is there :p
<V>
(yes, I may have some issues)
<V>
So there are systemd user services, is it possible to have them enabled for just one user?
<V>
I'm currently coming up short on ideas for that, since it seems to be a system-wide thing
<V>
and 'systemctl --user enable' doesn't work because it'll symlink to the currently available unit in the Nix store
<V>
(which is obviously not what I want)
<cole-h>
With NixOS's `systemd.user.services`, I don't think so. But you can use h-m's `systemd.user.services`, which drops into `~/.config/systemd/user`
<cole-h>
Unless I'm misunderstanding
<V>
ah
<V>
I've not used HM before
<V>
Oh, looks like it writes the files directly into there
<__monty__>
I hope the game does well. CD projekt Red are the ones behind GOG right? But it's been hyped for so long I fear it's impossible to live up to it.
<cole-h>
__monty__: It's been hyped for 8 years now lol. I'll just be glad if it actually comes out...
<cole-h>
(CD Projekt is behing GOG, CD Projekt Red is under their wing, IIRC)
<cole-h>
Slight distinction
<__monty__>
Didn't realize the difference, thanks.
<cole-h>
s/behing/behind/
<cole-h>
idk why I still make that mistake heh
<eyJhb>
drakonis: I want one handed link hints
<eyJhb>
Hell I miss that. Being lazy and browsing the WWW using one hand and not the mouse
<drakonis>
hah
<drakonis>
i mean
<drakonis>
i should use those two because they look like fantastic things to play with
<cole-h>
I keep telling myself "I should set up a zettel"
<cole-h>
And I never do
<eyJhb>
cole-h: Currently reading what it is
<cole-h>
Basically, notes
<eyJhb>
drakonis: I really want to try that browser now
<eyJhb>
But I am not sure about security....
<eyJhb>
cole-h: Yeah, but I found the article! :D
<cole-h>
There's more science behind it, I think, but that's what it means to me
<eyJhb>
"notes" :D
<__monty__>
More anecdotes than science.
<cole-h>
"science" then :P
<__monty__>
I like the idea but I can't say it's been working for me.

For the emacs-inclined out there, take a look at org-roam if you're interested in zettelkasten.

anyone find themselves annoyed by/with inconsistencies in the names of things like CLI flags, functions, env vars, nix packages/builders, etc? :)
