Seal (Android)

It's an audio/video downloader that uses yt-dlp internally.

It's not only useful for YouTube, it can download media from most sources.

It also has a little "quick download" share target that comes handy when browsing YouTube (Music) and Po...other sites with tons of media 👀

I didn't get it at first, and my first thought was "Is this loss?".

One of my first smartphones, I don't remember the brand, but it was a Chinese knockoff, even had a TV tuner, with a built-in antenna that retracted into the case. I had to stay in the hospital for a few days and it was great. This was back around 2010.

Puppy Linux on an old Celeron @ 333MHz, with 160MB of RAM and 4GB of disk space.

I was amazed at the speed compared to Windows XP and even 98SE. It weighed about 100MB but had quite a few applications like mtpaint, Inkscape, Abiword, some spreadsheet program (I don't remember which was it, don't think it was GNUmeric), mplayer, some lightweight browser (I think it was Midori), even XChat.

The only (and BIG) problem is that you basically ran everything as root.

Some time later I bought a more powerful PC (Intel something dual core @ 3GHz, 4GB RAM and 500GB disk), and used the pre installed Windows 7 for some time before installing Ubuntu (I think 12.04) and I've been using it since.

Good to know, thanks.

Still, I won't touch Windows if I can help it.

I have a laptop still with Windows 10. I got it from my late sister about 4 years ago, booted it up, went and installed Ubuntu (18.04 at the time), and never touched Windows again.

I later read somewhere that W10 was forcibly upgrading itself to W11, so I'm afraid to even boot into it. Should probably take some time to copy everything important over and finally nuke it.

For reference, I've been using Linux since around 2012.

Lua is the same. Only false and nil are "falsey".

I remember I fixed a bug in a mod for Minetest that assumed 0 was false and caused an infinite loop.

I haven't seen this posted here, but it brings back memories.

In Spanish it even depends on which dialect you're speaking.

In some places it's "la lavadora" (she/her), and in other places it's "el lavarropas" (he/him).

I usually listen to the radio, or let ViMusic (YouTube music algorithm) recommend me songs. Then I use yt-dlp (Seal app on F-Droid) to download them.
