  • I’ve used ‘KillTheNewsletter’ a lot. And then it hit me. Most email clients have features I want for my feeds (filtering, auto-sorting into folders by keywords, etc.)

    So far, only emacs (forgot extension name) and feedbro (firefox extension) have similar festures to these…

    Hence, I’m yet to try it, but might create an account only for feeds. And then use rss2email (pypi)

    Is anyone else using this tool? I’d love to hear it…


  • One could also think that whoever packaged this was hurried while filling a form, and wanted to provide credit where it was due. So, maybe they were on the best of their intents… We don’t know.

    If I were to use this, I would check other apps from same uploader. Or better, see what permissions are being asked…

    In any case, trusting blindly github contributors on teamnewpipe organization is not extremely different.

    Trust and credibility are volatile and freely given. It’s youtube, not my bank account ;p









  • Oh! I should get back to it… Togrther with the winamp skins I had downloaded from internet archive.

    Plus projectM from Steam, and Spotube… I could stop using the monthly subscription for (*1) an ugly UI that barely handles drag-and-drop and is a mess to make my playlists with.

    (*1) tbh, the recommendation engine got me hooked at first, but my interest has been fading away.










  • Just to put some, apparently unconsidered, idea on the table… I’m quite happy with my zfs raid array of 6 hdd, a “workstation” type of motherboard, and loads of ram (2x64). I didn’t use the latest hardware trends, DDR 4 actually with 8-cores Xeon CPU. And added a GPU so gaming is covered. Prices where at your range. Here I hope to hoard loads of multimedia (holidays videos, etc.)
