>*just you wait! any decade now!
I wonder why they held off for so long. FLAC has been around way longer than Opus and Mozilla added support for that years ago.

Why would a lossless codec replace a lossy codec? Each has their own uses

Bump for interest, good links.
I recently installed Service Pack 1 on a fairly fresh 7 install. What should I do to get fully updated without downloading any telemetry crap or Windows 10 crap, but also so that I can do it quickly? Manually reading the update information takes forever.

Do you recommend a few that I can compile myself and optimize for my specific computer?
just picked these up. Pretty happy so far. Looking for a replacement cable with a straight jack and maybe a sleeved cable or something else neat, but haven't had any luck. Anyone know of some?
>>56533255
At this point I'd recommend using foobar2000 in WINE or whatever Linux users use to run Windows programs. With WINE you can then add the VST plugins with foobar2000.

The only reason to run Windows is for video games.
If it can't even do that it's worthless.

Install Gentoo.
Whats the best torrent site for VSTs and samples?
Where I can find a good android games emulator for windows/linux that isn't completely trash?
Can I be tracked for a few no-called id calls I already made in the past?
No need to know the details, I didn't speak, calls lasted no more than 5 seconds each, but if the other part (the one who recevied my no-id call) has little to no knowledge of tech and stuff can he find out that it was me calling?
AFAIK to do so you need to allow me to call you with my no-id but you have to install a proxy app that forwards my number to a hotline-type number that can decrypt unknown numbers, but if he just received them on his iPhone he has no clue nor way to find it out right?

Welcome to /fglt/ - Friendly GNU/Linux Thread.
Users of all levels are welcome to ask questions about GNU/Linux and share their experiences.
*** Please be civil, notice the "Friendly" in every Friendly GNU/Linux Thread. ***
Before asking for help, please check our list of resources[*].
If you would like to try out GNU/Linux you can do one of the following:
0) Install a GNU/Linux distribution of your choice in a Virtual Machine using VirtualBox or other software made for this puporse for safety purposes.
1) Use the Live ISO (if your distribution of choice has one) to boot directly into the GNU/Linux distribution without installing anything, that way, you can get to experience the GNU/Linux operating system without installing it.
2) Dual boot the GNU/Linux distribution of your choice along with Windows or macOS, this is recommended if you want to know more about the GNU/Linux operating system.
3) Go balls deep and replace everything with GNU/Linux.

Should I really trust this information? I can't believe that GNU/Linux don't have a solution for this problem!

Won't know for sure until you try it.

it will most likely just werk, in glorious amd64 and not some shoddy old 32bit bullshit.
Hi /g/entleman, I was wondering what is a browser different from Vivaldi, Chrome, Firefox, Opera... Im sick of the same shitty designs and interfaces..
Are you aware you can customize firefox to your liking?
I mean REALLY customize it.
