Hello everyone! I want to ask some recommendation of open source alternative to IDM with these feature:

• Automically capture link from browser (especially Firefox)
• Compact layout like IDM, no excessive theme
• Still maintained
• No silly "freemium" like FileCentipede
• Video download indicator on browser, I mainly download videos from YT, NicoNicoDouga, Bilibili, Facebook Videos, Instagram, etc. Similar to:
• Properly detect non Latin character file name

I already research some options, but I asking directly to community might surface interesting underrated programs.

Thank you!

Little different post than typical but I remember being really excited about their tractor and compressed earth block press a long time ago.

Is this just one of those "never build something you can buy" type efficiency things? I'd love to know if anyone has had any direct involvement or firsthand knowledge.

Hey guys, I am looking for a desktop app (Linux) that can translate text in images. I know I can do that with google or some other websites but I was wondering if you have an open source alternative.

Schleswig-Holstein, Germany's most northern state, is starting its switch from Microsoft Office to LibreOffice, and is planning to move from Windows to Linux on the 30,000 PCs it uses for local government functions.

Concerns over data security are also front and center in the Minister-President's statement, especially data that may make its way to other countries. Back in 2021, when the transition plans were first being drawn up, the hardware requirements for Windows 11 were also mentioned as a reason to move away from Microsoft.

Saunders noted that "the reasons for switching to Linux and LibreOffice are different today. Back when LiMux started, it was mostly seen as a way to save money. Now the focus is far more on data protection, privacy and security. Consider that the European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS) recently found that the European Commission's use of Microsoft 365 breaches data protection law for EU institutions and bodies."

As someone who listens to a lot of niche artists, I was upset, that not all albums were present in MusicBrainz. So I came up with a solution.

Meet Lidarr++Deemix!

This tool helps to enrich Lidarr, by providing a custom proxy, that hooks into the process without modifying Lidarr itself, and injects additional albums from deemix.

I've recently been given medication for a rash I've been experiencing. With this app I can nicely track when the rash starts, at what time I take my medication and how effective it is. Seems to be a single developer who created a solid app. Also available on Playstore.

I am looking for an alternative to Easy Effects for windows. It works really well on my Linux machine, but I want something for my work machine that runs windows.

Any suggestions? I don't need all the filters, but at least something to correct the awful bass

I made a mod launcher for classic Doom (specifically, GZDoom) because I wasn't a fan of what currently exists. CleanDoom focuses on simplicity and usability.

If anyone here is a Doom fan, give it a try and let me know what you think!

In economics class we have to present our business plans and mine is coding classes (probably a summer camp for kids) and I could talk about how the coding classes would encourage kids to not make non-libre software

Heliboard 1.2 has just released. This version fixes a bug with certain Android devices not providing haptic feedback or audio feedback.

Thanks devs!

Heliboard V1.2

[Edited] Ironically my keyboard auto corrected its own name to "helipad." Embarrassing 😵‍💫

I'd understand if they were a random user, but a mod should already have at least some understanding about a community's topic.

But worse to me are their comments in that post calling the people responding "childish trolls in this community". I do not think that this is appropriate for a moderator.

I’m looking to host a online event and I was wondering your alls opinion on this software

Lemmy did not warn that this was already posted days ago. Apologies. Here's another take https://pluralistic.net/2024/04/01/human-in-the-loop/#monkey-in-the-middle

https://github.com/gsantner/memetastic/issues/235 Currently the text is only available as upper and bottom text which might not be the meme format always So can someone please look after this issue

I have previously written a lot of code that is hosted on a public repo on GitHub, but it never had a license. It was written as part of my work while working for a non-commercial academic entity, and I would like to add a license before the link to the repo will be included in something that will be made public, potentially attracting one or two visitors.

This leaves me with a couple of questions:

1. Can I just add a license after the fact and it will be valid for all prior work?
2. Do I have to make sure the license is included in all branches of the repo, or does this not matter? There are for instance a couple of branches that are used to freeze the state of code at a certain time for reproducibility's sake (I know this could be solved in a better way, but that's how it is).
3. I have myself reused some of the code in my current work for a commercial entity (internal analysis work, only distributed within the organization). Should this influence the type of license I choose? I am considering a GPL-license, but should I go with (what I believe to be) a more permissive license like MIT because of this?
