they do better onboarding last i tried it, but adding servers is not as simple as just pasting a code. you suddenly have to worry about servers and which rooms are in which server and such. you do have to make sense of things when you first log in.
i found it unfamiliar, but i guess such is life when you are swapping apps. the clients i tried could use some tweaking and feel pretty sparse. some looked and felt like IRC.
it should have more pictures (not entirely unserious)
i literally just use gnome disks. don’t quote me on it but i think it uses hdparm under the hood for the benchmark.
it’s cool that you can even do that. i have a spare m2 slot and i found it for basically free too.
i have zero need for that but i might just do this, out of the sheer cheapness of it. did you benchmark it?
i miss the times when paying for music was considered cringe
you will find the protocols and websites themselves irrelevant when you notice it’s all about money.
honestly, bluesky rode the wave of federation but it’s as much of a corpo owned propaganda platform as twitter.
community owned platforms are where it’s at.
it’s super snappy and fast isn’t it?
mpv on linux, vlc whenever i’m on windows.
no particular reason, just habit.
down with the cartel
i hope they are available in my region. it’d be nice to have when planned obsolescence takes mine.
the cybertruck was made by a very rich pedo though. those are above the rules.
i’m curious what everyone’s bank is. mine stopped working this year.
oh for sure. upside is maybe it’s an easier and better documented process now a few years later from my last attempt.
might be worth it for the annoying anticheat games.
that’s where a system like flatpak comes in. you shouldn’t have easy rw access to you entire home directory.
i know flatpak has holes but if that complicates malware made for windows, that’d be it for now.
not saying the risk doesn’t exist though. maybe firejail or something would be more complete security.
we are fucked aren’t we?
i know, but it may be different enough to break stuff.
call
also not private tbqh
sounds unpractical af
while the risk you mention is very real and we should not be too complacent with it, i haven’t seen any attack targeting linux users from pirated games in the wild.
hell, scene releases from trusted sources are usually slightly safer than the original game because of removed DRM phone-home bullshit.
plus wine and flatpak are enough to fuck with malware targeting only windows if you don’t keep all permissions enabled, which you shouldn’t.
you can with GPU passthrough. not a simple process though, and not all hardware supports it.
plus you need a dedicated gpu for the VM.
with that kind of speed it could probably run a lean linux system pretty well if you move /home to another drive. or a small server.
sounds like neat hardware to play with.
