I mean I give it a 100% chance if they are allowed to keep going like this considering the enormous energy and water consumption, essentially slave labor to classify data for training because it’s such a huge amount that it would never be financially viable to fairly pay people, and end result which is to fill the internet with garbage.

You really don’t need to be an insider to see that.

My backup service runs pg_dumpall, then borg create, then deletes the dump.

Another tip: take a look at systemd-networkd for managing your network connections! It has builtin support for creating wireguard tunnels and it’s very nice.

I played so much TF2 from probably around 2014 until the dreadful matchmaking update. Still played a bit afterwards but not nearly as much. By far the most I’ve played Spy and Engineer, always liked them because they were the most unique. Scout after that.

This makes no sense to me, this effectively seems like a loan to me which is useful if you have a single large payment that you want to kind of spread the load on your account by turning it into a recurring payment over some amount of time, but groceries are a recurring payment already so what does this do other than make you pay interest on top? By the time you’ve paid off the first one you’ve probably bought groceries three more times.

It would be interesting to make a Lemmy fork that doesn’t require login and registers all posts as anonymous@(instance). Would probably get insta defederated by every other instance though lol

The Nextcloud Windows client does VFS and there’s an experimental Mac client that does VFS.

I keep having to login to Lemmy on any iPhone browser every time I navigate to a new page. Is there a way to keep me logged in?

The title really. I tried Firefox, Safari and Chrome, they all behave the same way: I have to re-enter my credentials almost every time I refresh the page or navigate to a new link within Lemmy. Especially on iPhone this is very annoying (since accessing your saved passwords requires entering a code). Is there a way to extend...

I’ve had the same issue, happens on my MacBook too. I feel like Lemmy has some weird thing where it kills your session if your IP changes too much or something like that and doesn’t actually have to do with that it’s an iPhone, since I pretty much only notice it when traveling.

day ruined

It’s missing the Clippy button in the taskbar

Siri automatically switched languages to read my wife's Japanese to me for the first time and I'm so happy. (kbin.run)

We've been married for more than five years and in all that time, whenever she would send me a message in Japanese while I was out and about with my headphones in, Siri would just say "(wife) just sent you a message I can't read" and be done with it....

That’s awesome. I hope we’ll get multi-language voice output in more places. I especially want this for GPS navigation.

AdGuard, and Vinegar for YouTube.

2xsaiko,
@2xsaiko@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

It works for me, it’s a bit janky though because of YouTube’s custom link handler. You have to either open videos in new tabs or reload the page after clicking the video for it to load correctly.

Tbh I don’t actually know if it’s supposed to remove ads, I use it to get the better (Safari built in) video player that can do Picture in Picture and what not.

@2xsaiko@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

What do you mean?

2xsaiko,
@2xsaiko@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I don’t think YouTube does anything for that to be necessary, but I could be wrong.

I bought a QNAP TL-D800S disk shelf (it does have 8 slots and not 5) and an old used Fujitsu Esprimo on eBay. That means I can replace the PC with something more powerful in the future if I need to without having to worry about the disks. Works great so far with the 5 disks I have in it and the two stack on top of each other perfectly.

2xsaiko,
@2xsaiko@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

If you can connect it to the SBC, yeah. This one comes with a PCIe card and you connect it with SAS cables (it unfortunately only does SATA for the drives though). The disks show up as separate independent devices and you can just combine them with mdraid or whatever.

There’s also a USB C variant of it but that seemed more sketchy to me.

Take something with KDE Plasma. I have mine set up to work as close to Mac as possible (command key as the main modifier, all the Mac shortcuts for the window manager and KDE applications, top menu bar, dock, probably more). Took a bit to set up but now it doesn’t nearly throw me off as much anymore when switching between the two.

I really hope you enjoy Thief 1/2! The two are some of my top games of all time and the second one is after 25 years still the best pure stealth game.

As was already said, do make sure to install TFix or T2Fix (depending on the game) to get widescreen/high resolution renderer and just modern hardware support in general.

Help me choose a distro/stay on NixOS

Disclaimer: I know there’s a lot of questions and posts like this but generally they’re aimed at noobs. I consider myself an intermediate user, and I know generally distros don’t matter much and you can have anything another distro has on any distro but I’m looking for something a little “specific” that better suits...

Join the support room on Matrix, really helpful people in there. (And it’s official and not Discord)

Czech Republic is doing the most promising thing right now I think: konecipv4.cz/en/

I hope the EU or at least other countries will follow.

You wouldn’t have Wayland if it weren’t for WONTFIX, ya daft cunts.

Bit rich to say that considering the reason most very useful and well written Wayland protocol proposals that would get it up to par with X11 are rejected is because Gnome vetoes it since it doesn’t match their vision for the Gnome desktop

I’m going to write (at least part of) the script first anyway, and then I can just use chmod +x after the file is saved which is shorter.

Yeah, tunnelbroker.net is what I use. It works behind NAT too, and they even give you a /48! For free!

To be clear I wouldn’t mind paying for guaranteed speeds because the he.net tunnel can be a bit slow at times. My problem with this is that they don’t give you a /64 which basically makes it useless for anything but the “host a couple services” use case. Most people who would consider this, including me, probably don’t have IPv6 connectivity from their ISP at all and would like to get routable IPv6 address space for their home network.
