I did try SMPlayer (I think MPV uses the same backend mplayer, right?) since it didn't have the same volume syncing issue. Unfortunately it wasn't able to open remote files! Just stuck with VLC for now. Does MPV do something better than VLC?
Thanks for the tip about the T430 laptops, I'll check this out ^^

This is a neat little website blog sort of thing!
I definitely agree with you on your article of switching to Linux. I use Debian regularly, I switched from Windows a while ago, and I've never truly contemplated installing Windows for long term every day usage. Updates and installing new software are painless processes with apt, my setup only uses 400 mb of RAM on idle, my theming looks zany, etc. Linux is great!

Thanks! The site's simple design comes from my laziness ;). Yes, Debian to me seems to sit in an excellent middle-ground between something totally manual (Slackware or Arch I suppose) and something almost entirely automated (Windows/*buntu/etc). It sure was fun building the system from the ground up like Slackware but with easier tools.

I've only ever used Windows. As long as the programs open and work, then I'm a happy camper.

What do you think, should I switch back to Neocities full-time? I have to admit that a dedicated domain (and a dedicated server) for a website that only amounts to my own writing, I could easily scale it all down and have a much easier time managing my website. Learning Apache sure was fun, though.

I have limited experience. I haven't done any other website except the one here on neocities. But I do like the control of working with HTML and CSS.
I've written a new entry. Writing little "blog" posts like this is much easier than the way I had it before. I could go on for pages... but I wonder if anyone will read them! Hah.

MPV has the advantage of offering a lot of features in a really small package, it has over 400 options and can load videos from URL.
