Yeah theres no way lemmy instances that were struggling to scale 2 weeks ago with a few thousand users active are supporting 2.5mill suddenly

We used to have that, but we moved to a more plastic feel type money like 6 years ago

Im like 99% sure i did have that line in my config, and it still didnt work for whatever reason.

Look im not saying NixOS is bad, in fact i really like the idea of it, but ive tried it about 2 times and always came upon something that didnt just work for me, and i end up going into the nixos search thing to try and find what variables i need to put in my config, and its not always 100% clear. On my desktop steam and everything worked fine but i was annoyed at some stuff and stopped using it, on my laptop it just didnt wanna launch any games, idk why exactly that happened but another distro worked fine.

Same thing happened to me today, clicking on a post and backing out fixed it and im on default english

I installed NixOS on a laptop and tried to run a steam game and it just straight up didn't launch anything, went to the wiki to figure out the amd drivers, opengl whatever put like 10 new lines in my nix config rebuilt restarted still nothing works, after about 2 hours i just swapped back to arch and the games launched straight away, so for me it wasnt as easy as you may claim it to be. I also tried it on my desktop before and it was a better experience, but still not great. The nix config file is a bit of a mess of options that you have to dig into wiki pages and searching stuff to figure out how to get some stuff to work

Hard to choose 3 as im fairly new to progmetal and been listening mostly to btbam, trying to listen to more recently though.

  • between the buried and me - the great misdirect
  • the human abstract - digital veil
  • world is quiet here - zon, is one i recently listened to and really enjoy so ill stick it here.

maybe not exactly my top 3 but the first ones that came to mind

Did lemmy.world ever defederate?, seems like it was just that post that was calling for it. Beehaw defederated from both about a week ago due to spammers

Wait till they find out its not just lemmy that the donald people are on, they actually exist in the world too. Can we defederate the earth too? haha

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/XDG_Base_Directory#Support, the situation is crap tbh and alot of devs refuse to even give you the option of switching to XDG standards for some reason. I started using flatpaks for most of my programs just to escape this.

I do know XDG standards are messy for devs to implement but at least have everything in .config or .local instead of spewing it across my home folder

someone posted these guys a week ago and i really liked them, they've got nice guitar parts and the clean vocalist sounds great to me, still not a huge fan of the harsh vocals though

[–] hschen@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

I noticed lemmy.ml is federating even worse it was like 2 days behind this community when i checked

I had KDE on Arch installed on a laptop (gave to my mom, now swapped to windows 10) and didnt know why it was happening and it was like 2 years ago. now i installed KDE on my desktop a few months ago and had the same issue, ended up finding the bug being sddm and swapped to sddm-git, i cant believe they just let this bug run around for years without pushing an update till now
