Israel appealed to the Lebanese government to confiscate the money
Has the Lebanese government responded to any of these claims? I haven’t heard much from the government itself. I’ve just been assuming they might as well be innocent bystanders praying “oh god not again”.
You just want a desktop version of the apps you already have? Have you tried VLC?
Lol then why are you even bothering with Kodi?
The main alternatives to Kodi are Jellyfin and Plex but I suspect those will have the same problem if your library isn’t organized. How well are NOVA and Infuse handling your library? Like are they able to tell queue up the next episode of a TV show? Because Kodi is basically trying to be more like a local Netflix than “just a video player”.
Jellyfin and Plex are web-based so you’ll get a a far more consistent experience across devices than Kodi. But they’ll generally expect Movies to be in one folder, TV shows in another, and will have some expectations of the file name. They won’t open the file to figure out what movie it is.
Bibi for sure is. Biden’s barely functional.
If python is too big for you and you’re dealing with heterogeneous systems then you’re probably stuck with sh as the lowest common denominator between those systems. I’m not aware of any scripting languages that are so portable you can simply install them with one file over scp.
Alternate route is to abandon a scripting interpreter completely and compile a static binary in something like Go and deploy the binary.
There was also some “compile to bash” programming languages that I’ve sneered at because I couldn’t think of a use case but this might be one.
Elixir checks most of those boxes. If you want a good functional scriptibg language, Elixir soynds like the go to. Some lisp language like guile should also be sufficient, and probably have a lighter footprint.
This requirement stands out though:
has a simple/straightforward setup (ideally, it should be a single executable that I can just copy to a remote system, use to run a script and then delete)
Thats basically what ansible does. If you plan on doing this to multiple machines you should just use ansible. Also how do you plan on ensuring the scripting interpreter is installed on the machines?
Almost certainly Erdogan bluffing again. But Israel is overreacting again so 
Yeah I only suggested obsidian because its so popular and is completely out-of-the-box.
If you want everything exactly as you want it you’ll need to spend time coding it all yourself. Otherwise you’re shopping around for different tools for specific things. Some editor plugin for notes. Another for tasks. Another for reminders etc.
My issue with task warrior was its syncing service taskd. It required that you generate a self signed ssl certificate. You couldn’t host it behind caddy. But all the issues listed I’m pretty sure it covers. Its extremely robust.
Is there a reason you’re not looking at tools explicitly built for this like orgmode, obsidian, task-warrior, etc? There’s a plethora of these tools and my experience with this is you really don’t want to over-engineer your productivity suite.
That said, if you go the SQL route, sqlite is the way to go. Other SQL databases must be run as a daemon whereas sqlite operates on a local file directly.
However any SQL database isnt going to have the CLI youre asking for. Its interface is… SQL, so you’re scripts are going to have a bunch of SQL code embedded that isnt easily reusable. A non-sql database will probably be better. I’m not familiar with them but I think there’s some that store their data as text files in a folder which is organized a certain way. But that starts looking like the tools I mentioned before.
For some reason you’re trying to install it as a system service so I suspect you need to start it with sudo and probably do the daemon reload with sudo. Not entirely sure its in the right folder but it might be fine.
You can also try systemctl list-unit as a way to debug if its getting found by systemd.
Fwiw I have spotifyd installed as a user service in ~/.config/systemd/user that way I can start and stop it with systemctl --user instead of sudo systemctl. This is important because spotifyd will disconnect and need to be restarted after inactivity.
I have a standing fatwa on snap only because it comes installed and enabled by default on Ubuntu server. Maybe it’s good for grandmas laptop but it’s kill-on-sight in a server environment. Every Ubuntu server I’ve seen has eventually been taken offline without any warning because of snapd doing some auto update.
Ubuntu server should have snapd disabled. Ubuntu shouldn’t be the default distro for VPS providers. AFAIK its only the default because its the distro most people might have prior experience with.
While I’m at it, Fedora is also on my shit list as dnf requires over a gig of memory to do a major version upgrade.
I’d expect the US to announce that they’re going to go put boots on the ground in Yemen before they do so. If they’re going to do it unannounced then it’ll be some JSOC psychos not the marines. Not a “massive” invasion.
I like #Nix, I do not like what has happened to it.
With no explanation of what happened, the conclusion is almost certainly Internal politics.
It seems like forgejo split from gitea because it looked like gitea was going the route of gitlab. Idk if NixOS is going to commercialize though. Based on recent gossip it sounds like they’re overly adverse to commercialization. IE banning people for having DoD connections. Aux’s talk about special interest groups makes it sound like they’re going embrace that like redhat.
MPD. Is the way. Queue is playlist. Save queue as playlist. Playlist in folder. Load playlist to queue. Load playlist to queue. Playlists con…conc…concatentatetded. Concatenated.
There’s programs like kdesu which you can use. Idk if you can (or should) hack a context menu for a run-as-root option on everything. But you can make aliases or specifically application menu items for the specific apps you want to use.

We must first ask What GUI program are you trying to run as root?
Just highlighting how simple of a player it must be to reach a stable state so quickly.

I don’t know, which is why I was curious.
