But I don’t think tankies would mind being called “Moist”.
Oh, sorry, I thought you meant “Maoist”.

Linux: Yes, Linux Mint Xfce 22.1
Codecs: Yes,
mint-meta-codecs.Everything seems fine in Zen, Falkon, FreeTube, SMPlayer, VLC etc.
But the one time I tried watching video in Firefox recently, it was jerky.
- Comment on Roku wants you to see a lot more AI-generated ads 3 weeks ago:
Video playback smooth in Zen but jerky in Firefox. Haven't tried in Librewolf or Firedragon.
- Comment on Roku wants you to see a lot more AI-generated ads 3 weeks ago:
My TV (dumb but attached to a Roku Express) died last month and since then I've been watching on computer + Zen Browser + uBlock Origin, with zero ads.
And noticing that I don't see a single TV for sale in nearby shops that is not a (usually Roku) smart TV, i.e. data surveillance capitalist tool.

I put lemmyverse.link at the start of URLs that lead to a different instance. That redirects them to my home instance where I xan vote, comment etc.

- Comment on Was there a Cold War conflict where the Soviets funded the right-wingers and the Americans funded the communists? 1 month ago:
The closest I can think of: I think there was a crazy time when the People's Republic of China and, to a lesser extent, the US were together(!) backing "Democratic Kampuchea" (i.e. the Khmer frickin' Rouge) against the invading (USSR-allied) Socialist Republic of Vietnam and its proxy, the People's Republic of Kampuchea.
So, the US, softly, backing a bunch of far-left lunatics against a less-far-left bunch backed indirectly by the Soviets.
From Wikipedia
The Cambodian–Vietnamese War was an armed conflict between the Khmer Rouge-led Democratic Kampuchea and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. It began in December 1978, with a Vietnamese invasion of Cambodia which toppled the Khmer Rouge and ended in 1989 with the withdrawal of Vietnamese forces from Cambodia. This Cold War conflict was part of the Third Indochina War and Sino-Soviet split with the Soviet Union supporting Vietnam and China supporting the Khmer Rouge.

- Comment on UK: Chinese asylum seeker allowed to stay in Britain because he “cannot be expected to lie” about his support for Taiwanese independence 3 months ago:
As usual with Taiwan, it's... complicated.
Residents of mainland China, which is now under the jurisdiction of the People's Republic of China (PRC), were identified as nationals given the pre-1949 history of the Republic of China. In May 2023, Executive Yuan released a policy memorandum to clarify that: "The people of mainland China do not have ROC nationality, and hence are not ROC nationals." (中國大陸人民不具中華民國國籍、非屬中華民國國民)[12] Legal scholars, on the other hand, argue that the matter is not resolved as executive branch explanations are not legally binding to courts. Hence, unless amended by the Legislative Yuan, both the Nationality Act and the Cross-Strait Act still include citizens of Mainland China (i.e., the PRC) as ROC nationals.

I do like the idea of a P2P system. I used to be on ZeroNet but there were just too few people and too little content to stick with it. I hope something like this takes off.
