Turns out, people get quite angry when the person they voted for doesn't win.

Then, you end up with people wanting to change how democracy works.

[–] xtremeownage@lemmyonline.com 10 points 2 years ago (2 children)

that attitude will change as soon as there’s a game in your wheelhouse you want.

Oddly enough, I have managed to avoid DRM-infested games quite well so far.

I have far to many other games on my list I still need to play without DRM, to worry about new ones infested with it.

Honestly, I am all good with getting rid of the drives.

I hardly ever touch CDs these days. I keep a spare USB reader, for making a backup copy of a music CD or movie DVD/Blueray, which I use, maybe twice a year.

I have boxes of DVDs and Blu-ray in the garage, and I don't ever use them. Matter of fact, if I wanted to use them, I'd have to go find a blueray player to actually play them with.

I do all of my gaming on PC, and I don't think I have physically purchased a game in over a decade. Steam/GoG are both quite nice.

A uh, few years late to the party......

Proton* Proton is the way. Granted, proton uses wine... but, makes getting games running nearly effortless is the majority of cases.

Also, has a nice website, protondb.com, which tells you how well / if a game works on linux.

Sure, I'm sure it would squeeze into an iframe just fine.

I stopped using it years back, and went to freshrss, when I wanted the simple feature of ignoring certain articles based on the title. But, when I did use it, it did work decently enough.

System Certificates

Aka, you cannot untrust google's certs. And google can do whatever the fuck they want, and you cannot change or alter that behaviour.

So, if google wants to publish a root CA, that allows them to act on behalf of any other domain, they can do that. etc.

There is a current PR, nearly completed for instance level blocking.

Until then, there is an easier method. Its called, looking at your subscribed feeds, instead of blindly looking at all.

 

Pretty bad storm just knocked out power. Gonna be on backup power for a while.

Should have enough capacity to go for 6 hours. But, will have to see

 

Good read, gives me a lot of hope for this project.

I look forward to an exciting future with all of you.

(Also- hopefully this wasn't posted already)

This was written by the Lemmy devs.

 

I have a lot of subscriptions, of which don't appear to be up to date.

Some communities, I see hardly no comments, and the vote counters never go up.

My assumption is the instance hosting the community is completely overloaded.

My instance, has gigabit symmetrical internet, 128G of assigned ram, and an entire E5-2697a v4 processor allocated to it (16 cores, 32 threads)

The worker count is turned up, but, in terms of my instance, it is basically sitting "near" idle, with a load average of < 0.30

There- anyway to speed up federation other then the instances hosting the communities upgrading their servers?

 

Just a random idea- but,

Would anyone be interested in having a .net based blazor front end for lemmy?

Sadly, there isn't yet a c# nuget package, but, that wouldn't be hard to fix.

https://join-lemmy.org/api/

The API itself, is pretty well documented.

And, building custom front-ends is encouraged as well.

https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/contributors/04-api.html#creating-a-custom-frontend

 

Instance will be down for around 30 minutes today.

Installing new fiber NICs into the server, and adding a few Coral TPUs for good measure.

 

What is this?

This, is a hopeful replacement for reddit.

Why are we replacing reddit?

Because reddit has proven it does not care about its users. It does not care about the concerns of its moderators. A massive protest resulting in over 75% of reddit shutting down for a day, was just "noise" according to u/spez.

Just noise. It will pass in a day.

I don't know about you- I don't like being referred to as "Just noise".

So, I think it's time for a revolution.

If you have not done so already, it is time to join lemmy. You can either join lemmyonline.com, or, you can look for another server to join here: https://join-lemmy.org/

This entire platform is decentralized and federated. As such, you can comment or view posts on any of the servers.

 

Ordered a couple M.2 accelerators two weeks ago, and already received them.
