I’m probably just stupid.


Yeah that’s what’s going to happen with the main blog.
Forgejo action > static HTML site > Cloudflared tunnel
This separate idea is to have a Lemmy instance to host pictures and federate the blogs comment system so people ideally won’t have to sign in or make an account to comment.


From the inside he looks like a republican.
But that’s how its been for a while. This years Dem is last decades Rep.


I think the problem you’re running into is that Valve isn’t doing nothing with that pay.
Like valve is actively making my gaming experience better by developing cheap hardware and a good system for gaming on Linux.
All the games I’ve ever bought, regardless of if they still sell them are in my library.
My save files are cloud synced for free.
I as the end user am having a good time.
I also have a sunk cost thing going on. I’ve been trying to buy and play more GOG games but I just have so much that works already on Linux without any work that it’s hard to justify the tinker time to get it working otherwise.
They provide such a good service I think we’ve all forgotten about the children casinos for CSGO2 skins, but even that they’re fixing (kinda).
Maybe its just nice to not be mad about something. Like its just video games, I don’t really care if Valve has a monopoly on that since 1) Experience is good 2) they’re not trying to have like a monopoly on water or something important. Bad take maybe, but there’s enough going on that I just don’t know if I could make myself care that valve is like 90% of videogame sales. Or whatever it is.


I’m personally allergic to doing anything to my distro other than installing games and VSCodium.
Its why I barely understand the X11 v Wayland discussion. I have no idea how to customize my Linux set up, if a troubleshooting step says “May bork computer if done wrong” I just reinstall the Distro or try another one. It takes like 5-10 minutes to install Linux on most modern computers
To me this is a feature of Linux. “It works on my distro” means I’m using that distro now!


I used to be a dual monitor guy on my gaming rig, but there were a few times I had issues with display (usually playing older games like Underlord)
So I just became a single monitor guy, but its a big monitor
This only works on others computers.
If the wizard themselves experience a minor irritating tech issue, then it stays permanently and forces the wizard to use a convoluted work around instead of asking another wizard for help (this would fix it)


I think you missed the guy this is targeted at.
Worry not though. I get it. There isn’t a lot of nuance in the AI discussion anymore and the anti-AI people are quite rude these days about anything AI at all.
You did good work homie!


This + Local Wikipedia + My own writings would be sick


Didn’t he daily a M series macbook when they came out?
I don’t remember people being obnoxious about that


Nope.
I test printer settings by printing ding dings. I will do this.
My life for Super Users!


FreeCAD isn’t terrible if you haven’t already learned F360
I had to watch a bunch of videos on FreeCAD to sorta unlearn the work flow of F360 stuff but its not bad.


I’m not convinced AI slop can compete with the back log of organic slop personally.
But yeah a fuckton is probably slop either way


Mad its clickbait
Don’t care cause Michaelsoft bad


I’m more willing to bet this is VPN servers running linux


There’s a few options now, but you can get Intel N100 ITX boards Like this one from ASUS with a soldered on N100 CPU for the cost of a normal motherboard.
If its just a NAS, and I do recommend having a separate Just a NAS, that CPU fucks hard.
I’m a simple man.
I got to thepiratebay.org
I download what I want and put it on a jellyfin server
I never want much just some albums or a couple movies.
Its good enough and I’m pretty happy I don’t do anything crazy. I shouldn’t be watching this much TV as it is!
