Hello #Lazyweb. Does anybody have a suggestion for a surprisingly-good-for-the-price set of headphones? Good enough for podcasting (rather than music production) is the target.

Edit: Wires are preferred over bluetooth, and as a general rule compatibility with >10 year old devices a distinct advantage.

I'm back to being a full-time stay-at-home dad, which on the one hand is quite literally a dream come true, but on the other hand, is physically taxing to the point that recovering from an illness feels like it takes forever. Been fighting one thing after another for three weeks now and it's getting old

If anyone has any tips on boosting immunity while still managing day-to-day tasks well, I'm all ears. I normally eat/hydrate well, sleep could definitely be better, hardly any booze #lazyweb

Is there a FUSE driver to mount a website’s exposed tree?

Dear #lazyweb, do we have a good open source viewer for geospatial PDFs to replace the soon defunct Avenza? Avenza was always kind of clumsy but at least they didn't try to extract money from regional parks and volunteer run trail networks! Obviously we could just recommend @CoMaps or @osmand but we want to distribute official maps with legends, safety info, etc. (@david as-tu des pistes de solution?) #Openstreetmap https://www.lapresse.ca/voyage/plein-air/2026-08-25/cartographie-numerique/la-plateforme-avenza-s-en-va.php

Hey #AskFedi #lazyweb, throw me some #keyboard recommendations. I want something low profile and TKL - I'm not averse to unusual layouts but the presence of Home and End keys is non-negotiable.

Wouldn't mind something white or light grey, I don't care if it lights up but if it has to have lights on for key labels to be visible I don't want it.

Wireless would be cool but dongle, not Bluetooth. Am in Australia on a budget so an artisan European mechanical is not a realistic option.

What ya got?

Dear #music #LazyWeb,

With albums being almost a dead art form, curated playlists reduced to randomized collections to stream, slop vibes etc. …

It seems (outside of live performances) like DJ sets are the last bastion of hand-selected long-form of music in a coherent, quality flow.

What are some good resources to listen to DJ sets? Please don't say YT.

(feel free to boost)

What's the recommended way to run a local VM on Linux for screwing around with stuff these days?  Still VirtualBox or something else?  (I just want to try out some system software before putting it on my actual server.)

Dear #Lazyweb

I would like an Infosec professional to explain to me why Cloudflare has to have their thumbs all up in my business, please

Dear #lazyweb

Frustratingly a recent #debian update broke #kodi's ability to play #1080p videos. I don't get much more from kodi's log than "error <general>: eglSwapBuffers failed (EGL_BAD_ALLOC)". I've tried messing with various setting to no avail and nothing obvious appears in #dmesg output. The 720p videos still play fine and I know some of the failing videos worked last week before the update.

Any hints welcome ;-)

@sfoskett @daedalus nah, it's easier getting the answers from the #LazyWeb

I would like to try and learn how to take pictures. I was thinking about buying some used digital camera (look, film is great. But maybe not when you're still learning)

So I tried looking up some used/old camera recommendations but all cameras are from like max 2 years ago and still quite pricey.

Does anyone know about any websites where I could research cheap old cameras? Instead of 2 year old ones, I am happy to buy one from 15 years ago.

I have been looking for real life musicals of the Rocky Horror Show for a while. Trying #lazyweb - you lot know of any places in the northern Europe? #fælleshjerme #TheRockyHorrorShow

#TIL that #cpak exists.

They seem to want to be a sort of #flatpak but better.
However, I haven't been able to find a resource that would actually compare what each format is able to do and how they compare.

I'm sure there are people on Fedi that are knowledgeable about that, so if you have time to spare or a good link at hand to enlighten me, I'd appreciate it 😉

Otherwise, boosts are also appreciated to make this land in the feed of someone who knows!

Running sway now and after removing all window decorations and borders, I like the way the screen looks with my usually split of terminal (running tmux) on one side and a browser on the other for reference. One thing I haven’t been able to figure out is a way to get the colors desaturated like I had in GNOME with an accessibility filter (zoom, but without a magnification multiplier).

I don’t think it can be done with gamma/brightness adjustment without screwing up black and greys or I could use gammastep.

#lazyWeb ¿alguien sabe cuáles son las divisiones geográficas que usa AEMET en sus mapas?

#lazyweb: Ages ago there was a code editor that let you open and edit individual functions rather than entire files. I think you could also build a sort of call graph out of the functions you had open as well. Does anyone remember what that editor was, and/or if there's any contemporary alternatives?

(Yes I know about Zed multibuffers, unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a way to just say "open function x, y, and z in a multibuffer together", it seems to just be for search/find references/etc at the moment.)

@AuthorJMac I wonder how hard it would be to create a sort of relay-handle that you could have with your own domain name but is actually connected to an account on another server. I know that's possible with email (though, to be fair, I haven't gotten it to work yet there.)

I'm sure there's someone on the Fediverse who knows. #askfedi #askfediverse #askmastodon #lazyweb

Was nutze ich denn am Besten für einen Service, um eine ca. 150MB große Datei an jemanden zu schicken, von dem ich nur die E-Mail-Adresse habe?

EDIT: Als Lösung habe ich den Vorschlag von @Hopfi genommen. Danke allen für Eure Antworten.

Does anyone know of an android app to manage a local (as in in the device) library of movies and shows that tracks watched status and progress, groups episodes in their own shows and seasons? Extra points for automatically getting metadata and thumbnails.
