This sucks, I know. I just responded to a friend's message from two months ago, and I've felt bad about not responding since then. But life happens, and for me at least it had nothing to do about that friends behaviour.

It's meaningful to me, and meaningless to the internet.

I've done this with debian in the past, you just install different DE in parallel. Works well enough, don't remember it causing any issues. It just makes a mess of your home folder, so I don't do it outside of testing purposes.

Ha! It's funny because it's true!

Thanks, I hate it!

Wow, thank you! Don't know how I could have missed YouTube Revanced, that's exactly what I wanted!

I haven't seen this in any of the lists, but would it be possible to create a YouTube premium app without all the anti-consumer design. Like a fork of the official app where I'd be able to login, but not have all the bloat and just have search, subscriptions and playlists.

I think it's due to single sign on (SSO) or other means of authentication (OAUTH), which is convenient when used.

But I agree, annoying if you use username and password.

I sure hope so . I have a new XPS 13 9315 on the way!

I've been running a 2019 XPS 13 on Debian without any major issues, just sleep that has high battery drain. But I think that's a common issue.

I don’t have a good link to share, but from the research I did the difference is huge.

LiFePO4 batteries have a higher capacity, longer lifetime, safer and higher power to weight density. Many come with built in communication, like my bluetooth connection.

They are also expensive, but for my use case it’s much cheaper over time. I use about half a charge per day, which this battery should be able to sustain for 5-10 years. A lead acid battery would probably last months.

Forgot to add that a big part of the setup is in the battery controller, which I built on my own. :) That was a very fun project, and now the battery is fully automatic and charging is based on hourly price and the power provided by my solar panels.

It’s not very cleanly built, and parts of it are hidden. But this shows the main parts.

The black UPS on the left is the old one, not in use anymore.

The silver inverter on the left feed a rail in my server rack.

On the right is the battery and charger, and in the middle the fuse box and transfomer.
