[recommend me] informational/comedic/celebrity podcasts

I’m trying to get into some podcasts that are similar to Rogan’s podcasts in that I want a quasi-informational/comedic/celebrity talk show that has a healthy sense of humor.

I like technology, current events, investigative journalism, well thought out argument, etc.

I’m trying to find podcasts where the hosts or guests are generally funny, and won’t hesitate to swear, say disparaging things, and be authentic. I’m not looking for a podcast where people are badmouthing for clout or just to be a pain in the ass.

I’m just really not into listening to adults that talk like they’re afraid that [insert person] is going to scold them for using bad language because “their kids listen to their show”. Also, not a corporate shill would be nice.

I’ve been liking Jon Stewart’s podcast, but it doesn’t have enough variety. I listened to “HowStuffWorks” for a good while and just straight up stopped listening because of the above reasoning. MKBHD is a “good” podcast, but it doesn’t get nearly “sweaty” enough for me when it comes to technology; they just talk about headlines/stories that come from the Verge and/or are far too surface-level.

Why go through the trouble to use Arch?

May be a mean sounding question, but I’m genuinely wondering why people would choose Arch/Endevour/whatever (NOT on steam hardware) over another all-in-one distro related to Fedora or Ubuntu. Is it shown that there are significant performance benefits to installing daemons and utilities à la carte? Is there something else I’m missing? Is it because arch users are enthusiasts that enjoy trying to optimize their system?

[Answered] Is it possible to reinstall Linux without losing Dropbox?

[Edit] To answer my question, yes, Dropbox does indeed store its application information in your user's /home folder by default. As long as you don't wipe your /home folder, you should be good to go once you reinstall the Dropbox app after reformatting/reinstalling your distro (Tested with a few Fedora-based distros, YMMV if you use Debian/Arch). I didn't have to re-login; the Dropbox app just worked.

Is it possible to reinstall Linux (or distro hop) without losing my Dropbox install? Could I move the Dropbox install to my home folder so it survives the OS install?

Display INTO my PC/MacOS laptop rendered within an application window that can be full-screened

My use case: I have an M3 MacBook, but a much more flexible and powerful gaming PC that I'd like to hook up to my MacBook to act as a display receiver with zero/low latency. I make use of the MacOS virtual desktops and would ideally want to be able to fullscreen an app that just sits there and will display the input when I turn on my PC.

Same thing under Linux: I'd like to connect a console to the gaming PC which then displays on MacOS. I don't play any competitive console games, so I'm not necessarily worried about a small amount of latency (<50ms).

Currently, I have both my Linux gaming PC and MacBook connected to the same monitor, but have to switch between the inputs on the monitor itself. I want to be able to be within MacOS/Linux and just flip on a display input and connect my peripherals to the other PC and use it seamlessly, for example, I'd connect my controller and boot into Steam Big-Screen and game. If I need to web search something, I can just use my trackpad to change virtual desktops, do something, then swap back.

Is there something like a lightweight OBS that will ONLY display the input once it's all set up? I want the app window to be literally the Menu Bar with Close/Maximize and nothing else so I can just fullscreen the app and never see anything but the input itself.

MacOS -> Linux: PastePal replacement

Back again with another question thread looking for alternatives for my two most important apps that'll make me switch to Linux+Android:

Is there anything like PastePal on Linux with an Android app? The biggest thing about PastePal is that it lets me create a catalogue of text/images snippets that I can call up at any time on MacOS with CMD + Shift + V

The best part about it is that on iOS, I can use their custom keyboard and paste anything from my snippets library from the keyboard in places that don't usually allow you to paste text.

The app will sync everything I've copied on my Mac and make it available on my phone/iPad via either the app snippet library or the keyboard.

This is probably functionality that would be right up KDE Connect's alley to implement if it doesn't already exist.

Cyst popping videos?

I'm one of those degenerates that enjoy cyst popping videos, and my sources have all dried up at this point: I was lurking on r/popping_curated and popthatzit before that. I bet the majority of them are on TikTok now, but I don't want to make an account there just for this lol.

Place to ask experts/experienced about cGPT?

I’m wondering how I can use cGPT in a particular usecase and if so how can I go about feeding training data to it?

Whati am trying to accomplish: I want to be able to supply cGPT with a music file (.ogg or .mp3) and get an accuracy of .001 BPM as to what the BPM of a song is. Huge bonus points if it can also print out at which second (down to .001 sec) where a BPM would change in a song.
