I had the same audio crackling issues in Helldivers on Pop!_OS too. What fixed it for me was following mmstick's (Pop!_OS dev) instructions from his reddit post about audio crackling, particularly the headroom advice (I think somewhere between 256-512 worked for me):

If you experience audio crackling, try changing the ALSA properties in /usr/share/wireplumber/main.lua.d/50-alsa-config.lua. Particularly the period-size and headroom. Remove the leading -- from properties you are modifying. Log out and log back in after making changes. Note that any changes to this file will be overwritten on the next wireplumber update.

First start with changing the headroom to 1024, then 2048. Then try adjusting the period-size. Higher values increase latency and may reduce crackling. A lower period size decreases latency but requires more CPU.

Edit: also Pop!_OS uses pipewire by default for a few years now, not pulse audio

I know this is just a meme, but I think it's an important clarification: The rule of thumb is ~6 months' worth of expenses, not salary. It really is important to hold you over in case of sudden job loss, since it takes most people 3-6 months to find a new job (but it doubles as a fund for genuine emergencies too, which can save your ass for stuff like unexpected medical or vet bills).

But unfortunately, lots of people live paycheck to paycheck, so for them, a month's worth of expenses is the same thing as a month's salary...

When adjusted the way the article has stated, moving your head slightly to see the lines is trivial.

Plus, being parked slightly off-center or dinging a car in a parking lot is nowhere near as bad as causing a potentially deadly crash by merging into another car at high-speed.

I think OP's wording wasn't super clear. A bot created the original post on !technology@lemmit.online, but a human saw the bot's post there, and decided to cross-post it here to !technology@lemmy.world.

Note the median IMDB score is around a 6.6-6.7. So 6.0 is definitely below average. Not horrible, but definitely below average.

+1 for PipePipe if you want quick updates + SponsorBlock. I switched from Tubular a few days ago, and it imported my Tubular export flawlessly.

You don't necessarily need to use Obtanium though, the version on F-Droid has a built-in updater. But unfortunately the built-in updater isn't automatic (just a pop up notification that takes you to the .apk download page), so I can see the convenience of Obtainium.

If you use this, be sure to only use it in offline mode. DS2's anti-cheat is VERY finicky and will permanently shadowban you from online play for really simple/reasonable stuff like popular controller input wrappers, SweetFx, ReShade, etc: https://old.reddit.com/r/DarkSouls2/comments/3gxv71/psa_things_that_can_get_you_permanently/

Looks like the group with the most benefit was the 2-3 8oz cups morning group, which would be 450g - 680g of coffee each morning, and they defined morning as 4am-11:59am.

"Some people need a budget to save; others need a budget to spend."

My suggestion would be pick a % of your income to allocate as "fun money." 5%, 10%, whatever; the most important part is you budget it. Stick it in its own savings account, then invest the rest. Then, whenever you have the opportunity to do fun things, spend extra on hobbies, help family, donate, etc, you know exactly how much you can spend.

I'm not even sure to be honest, was just following the solution that others had posted.

Pop's site says that the --configure -a command configures any unpacked but not yet configured packages. And someone on Pop's github theorized it was related to Microsoft adding their own apt source for VSCode. So it was probably some issue with Microsoft's new apt source being unpacked but unconfigured, and that caused something in apt/dpkg to freak out. That's my best guess at least.

There were lots of other peope having this issue, including myself, who have never installed Mullvad. I think it's related to something in the Ubuntu repos. What fixed it for me was to run:

sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

Some people were also reporting a broken install due to missing packagekit, so maybe ensure packagekit is installed with:

sudo apt install packagekit

Then reboot, and you should be able to update stuff normally now.

uBlock has an "EasyList/uBO - Cookie Notices" filter that you can enable on both desktop and mobile, which is probably enough for most people.
