  • I have so many different answers I could give because I pretty much exclusively watch cartoons/animated shows whenever I watch traditional TV content instead of videos online.

    Though I’m going to say that right now it’s definitely Summer Camp Island, created by Julia Potts for Cartoon Network. Can’t remember whether Max removed it ( most likely, so enjoy finding it on the high seas if it was ), but it’s a 6 season show about an 11 year old anthro elephant kid, Oscar, who goes to this summer camp on an island with his best friend, an anthro hedgehog named Hedgehog for what ever reason. She’s literally the only character named like that and it’s never explained in the show why. Also, the island is magical and 3 witch camp counselors run it.

    The early seasons like season 1 and 2 ( possibly others but I can’t remember off the top of my head ) can be watched in just about any order, but there are a couple episodes here and there that will fill you in a little more on a slowly advancing plot in one way or another. Other than that, at some point they start getting more into a storyline that ends up having an amazing end ( even if season 6 feels a little rushed and has some loose ends that aren’t neatly wrapped up ).

    It was originally just 20 episodes that CN decided in 2018 to do a full 48 hour marathon on Boomerang ( which I assume was just to kill it because it’s something new that could have been spent towards their existing stale lineup ). I’m pretty sure most fans were genuinely shocked and surprised when more episodes were announced. I know I was. Either way, I’d personally recommend it.




  • If we’re talking PC applications, I have been starting to use Strawberry Music Player a lot more than before for the audio files on my desktop and laptop.

    For android, it’s a tie between the 2 most used apps outside of Voyager: Auxio and PipePipe.

    Auxio messed up some things a long while ago, causing some of my songs on my SD card that would previously work perfectly in app to be unable to display how much time is left in a song, select specific moments, or even how long the audio file is in a very rare case. But overall just works fine enough for my local music playback needs.

    PipePipe is nice enough. If yt Revanced refuses to let me play a video while in “incognito” mode, then I can just boot it up in this NewPipe fork. Also nice for the very niche time I wanna watch a video from NicoNico/NicoDouga ( Japanese video hosting platform ) because the person has the upload on there and no other official way of viewing it.


  • I could think of a few historic figures I would love to see be smothered in their cradle, but I think of it’s a one way trip, I’m going to get PDFs with just about everything I would ever need to know about programming in older versions of various languages, burn them to CDs, then return to the early 90s.

    My hope would be, assuming I could take the CDs with me, that I could spend time becoming someone known specifically for making good quality software that helps people. Then when people on windows get attached to that software, pull the rig by saying that, maybe around the late 2000s, all my software will now be only available on Linux. I’d hope to create such high quality software, with the help of any other lunatics I could find, that nobody else can compete. A sort of VLC is the best, or at the very least probably the most used, video player around the world sort of software. Get entrenched and then force a shakeup.

    Bonus points on me bringing proof I’m from the future, if I could, to ensure I could get people to believe me. Something like my soft modded 3DS. Also, bonus points if I bring CDs with PDFs for future versions of things like Python and other languages and such so we could stay ahead of the curb.

    Some real techno elitist type stuff if I had to say so myself.








  • As someone who has only been using Linux for a few years ( >5 ), yeah I do.

    Definitely know what cron/cronning is, but I’ll definitely have to look up what yum-cronning is.

    Edit:

    I’m an idiot and correct in my thinking that yum was referring to the yum package management thing, which I don’t use on my system. Sounds cool, though. Might look into automating my setup, but it’s become such a routine for me to run the script I’m not sure if I could easily switch.


  • As a basic Linux user, I have a shell script to do all my updating, upgrading, removing of unneeded packages, etcetera. Under no circumstances is it all that advanced, just a string of simple enough apt and flatpak commands.

    I also recently figured out that god knows how long ago that I set an alias to run it that’s only 3 keyboard clicks instead of 5, saving basically less than a second. So not that useful, but still good to know… until I inevitably forget about it again.






  • I may not like the .ml political stance, but there are definitely people on there that may have non-political things worth listening to, which is why I haven’t bothered blocking them. They may have some good opinions on open source software and such. I just avoid their news community because I know I will disagree with them and their stance.
