Forgot to mention that mpv
is how I actually watch the videos. Newsboat downloads a list from each channel kinda like an RSS feed. I can then select any video & download it by pressing a keybinding. It’s been a while since I last had to actually set this up, but off memory, here’s some quick info…
The file ~/.newsboat/urls
contains URLs similar to the one below. Just replace CHANNEL_ID
with the actual channel ID. You can find the channel ID in the URL of the channel’s page…
https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=CHANNEL_ID
With the URLs in place you can edit your newsboat config file to set up a key binding for downloading videos using yt-dlp
. It should be as simple as adding something like the following to the config…
macro d set browser “yt-dlp %u”; open-in-browser ; set browser “xdg-open %u”
This binds the d
key to use yt-dlp
to download videos.
I love YouTube, but the site often annoys me in many ways. On my computer I use newsboat
along with yt-dlp
to download all the videos I want to watch offline. This way, I can watch content without dealing with any of the site’s frustrations…
I never said anything about “tiptoeing around”, but what you said here is correct…
Any distro will “just work” if used correctly…
One other possibility is that it’s an impossible request so the genie’s refunded the wish. I actually read your initial comment wrong though…
There is multiple ways to interpret the joke. One possible way is that the genie likes the wish so much that he gives him the wish for free…
I personally don’t buy many games anymore. Most of the games that I play are either half-life mods, TF2C , older valve games like DMC & DODS, or the original Quake & Doom games…
I honestly don’t care about dethroning windows or anything related to it. All that matters to me is that my Linux system works the way I need it to…
I absolutely love how minimalist this looks…
Computer is connected to the router via ethernet. The connection to the router is I believe fiber optics…
Doesn’t have to be every week. Could be every other week or at least once a month. I haven’t used Windows since 2002, but personally, I update once a week, and it never takes all that long, maybe 2-3 minutes tops. But I understand that it’s not for everyone…
Fair enough…
Arch can definitely be a “set & forget” type of distro. Just install it, use it correctly, and that’s really it. No need to upgrade to new releases; just keep the system up to date…
OpenSUSE was actually released long before Arch even existed. I’m an Arch user, btw, but I consider both operating systems to be excellent choices. Everyone has their own preferences. Let people enjoy what they like and embrace their individuality. We don’t all have to be alike…
Not every system, no…
I really want to love Elementary OS, however, its foundation on Ubuntu has me hesitating, as I’m not the biggest fan of Ubuntu lately. If it were built on something like Debian or Fedora, I’d definitely be more inclined to give it a serious try…
