Ho sfanculato Mozilla e Firefox 4 anni fa. Prima muoiono entrambi, meglio è.

I ditched Mozilla and Firefox four years ago. The sooner they both die, the better.

He probbaly didn’t realise the committment involved.
Sitting in someones front garden, on the edge of a pond with a red pointy hat, with a fishing rod, for days on end, can be very tiring.
Then you got the cats pissing on you and the birds landing on your head.
Its no fun, I can tell you.
Its tough being a gnome
I got used typing “sudo service --status-all”
then got used to typing “sudo systemctl list-unit-files --type=service”
now a new one to learn “sudo nitroctl list”
looks simpler
That can only be a good thing for my gnarly arthritis fingers.
Hey SteveTech
I dont use internal or external SSD’s.
It maybe because I am an old greybeard, but I prefer to suffer the slight loss in speed of a HDD, so I can dd/erase/wipe them and reuse them again and again.
Though I have been using “disktest” to erase SSD’s and HDD’s recently and it has been working great. Much faster than zeroing with dd /dev/zero, shred or wipe.

However, I digress, I had not heard of f2fs before.
Ive been having an intersting read online.
It appears that it is a default for android phones.
I do have a few SSD’s laying around from when I replace them with HDD’s. So I will test f2fs on one of those.
Thank you
Hey pitiable_sandwich540
Thank you
I dont know why I have been so focussed and stuck on exFAT for all these years.
It must have been something I read somewhere that led me to it.
from all the decent feedback i have gotten on here, ext4 seems the best way to go.
I should have known this being a linux user for over 20 years.
Thank you Eugenia
Compressisng the files sounds a great idea.
I have in fact compressed a 12Gb file that I split into 10Gb chunks that still decompresses without problems.
This is particularly annoying when I have to upgrade my distro and all my files have to be moved to an external drive.
Unfortunately some of my files are up to 10Gb. thats why I stayed with exFAT.
I will certainly try Ext4 on my external drives. I will test it this week
Hey arsus5478
There are instructions to install with wget on the git page as you mention and you seem to have folowed that guide, but the easiest way is to use APT.
For debian I would add the PPA repo:
There are clear instruction on the git page to install from apt.
About half way down the page you will see APT.
https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/wiki/Installation
APT
You can download and install yt-dlp for recent Ubuntu and other related Debian-based distributions by adding this PPA
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tomtomtom/yt-dlp
sudo apt update
sudo apt install yt-dlp
Your system’s package manager will now automatically download the correct dependencies and keep the package updated with the rest of your system whenever you update:
Done
this is a good introduction to adding an external PPA repo to apt and getting to know debian

I did use the larger and medium models with Open whisper and Fast whisper.
I did not consider the lower termperature settings
Thank you
I have used Open-whisper and Fast-whisper to do subtitles.
Open whisper is easy to set up and install locally. I tried various models.
Recently I tried to do the French series En Therapie (In Therapy) which has 35 short episodes.
https://www.arte.tv/fr/videos/RC-020578/en-therapie/
Each episode is only 20 minutes long, so I thought that open whisper would be great to translate from French to English.
However. It failed dismally. Constant, regurgitation of repeated sentences. Throughout entire episodes open whisper used “him” instead of “her” and many other instances of misspelling. It would fail if there was music playing in the background.
I extracted the audio from the videos into small .wav format and .mp3 format but both failed.
I spent over a week trying to create suitable subtitles to no avail.
I am sure it will creep back up once the MX 25 has been released with Debian 13 on 9th August.

Optional distro downloads for Systemd or sysVinit.
use Mx-Linux on my old T450 laptop.
works great for my needs.
There are some nice rust replacement tools.
