Yeah, it makes federation, especially if you run your own server and don’t have a large user base, largely broken.
You’ll end up getting a shockingly small amount of replies to people you follow’s posts, which (for me) is the whole reason I’m here.
It almost forces you onto a larger server if you want a reasonable experience (or you have to start ingesting huge amounts of data via relays), but I mean, at that point why not just use bluesky instead?
For sure. It’s nice that low-ish power CPUs with iGPUs went from ‘roughly a box of melted crayons’ to ‘competitive with current-gen graphics’ in what, like 2-3 years?
And, of course, there’s no reason Nvidia couldn’t make a 15w variant later either since it looks like both AMD and Intel have CPUs competitive in that space now, rather than it just being a one-off design like the Steam Deck’s APU is.
Mastodon is, like, fine, but it has one gaping flaw that makes it utterly unusable for me.
Basically, the issue is you cannot be assured that any particular instance contains the entire conversation thread/replies, because they’re not necessarily sent to every server participating in the conversation.
Bluesky fixes that by the ‘firehose’ feeds federating out to the PDSes and providing complete reply chains, which just flat out makes it a better experience since you can actually see what everyone is saying, not just what people on servers you might be following already are saying.
It’s a giant stupid flaw in Mastodon (since other AP based platforms such as, for example, Lemmy don’t have it) and really should be addressed since it makes the platform darn near useless since why am I following people to only get half of what might be a useful thread?
Because Trump voters are poorly educated, and frankly, stupid.
You heard something about eating cats and dogs, they heard someone telling them that Those people they don’t like are doing horrible things, and he will make things even with Those people.
Literally a dog whistle, but you have to be a blithering moron to understand it, because anyone who isn’t just hears a senile old dumbass saying stupid shit.
Well, the article is talking 65 and 80w, so uh, that’s probably sadly not where these will end up.
There’s a big gap between the 15w tdp on the steam deck and either of those numbers, especially in battery life (unless measuring battery life in minutes) and the fact that 80w in a steam deck would be less gaming console and more portable burn generator.
For laptops, though, yeah, that’s looks pretty remarkable given that roughly equivalent laptops now use quite a lot more than 65w for that alleged performance.
You meant $695 right? Apple has an image to protect, you know.
(For the people mad at me: Mac pro wheels.)
Yeah quicksync won’t help you there.
I thought nVidia’s limit was enforced by their drivers, but that’s probably changed since it’s been a while since I looked at nvenc as a solution (quicksync, then an ARC card over here).
Is it bad I recognized it as daoc from the NPC font?
If you have an Intel CPU with quicksync, it will likely perform better than the 1060 in terms of visual quality, if its coffee lake or newer (8th gen).
If not, well, it’ll be fine up to whatever the stream limit is (4?).
sidequests that involve you slowly following an NPC
I haate those quests. ‘Quick! We must urgently go do something to save everyone!’ and then waddles off like an over-stuffed penguin.
Can we PLEASE at least make these stupid NPCs walk at player run speed, it’s been obnoxious for like 30 years now.
Wow, a commercial open source product that COULD have pulled a rugpull, looked for all the world like they were planning a rugpull, just uh, did the right thing?
Good job, Bitwarden.
Not in a way you’re probably going to like.
You could set up a bare metal hypervisor on the system and set up a VM for your NAS, Windows, and Linux and swap between them as needed, but uh, that’s not really an exceedingly pleasant desktop use case, for a number of reasons, one of which is that you really won’t have the normal ‘sit down, and use the computer’ desktop experience.
Alternate option: run the NAS and either the Linux or Windows install in a VM, and keep it booted into, say, the desktop Linux environment with everything else being a virtualized setup.
Since android apps are required, I’d maybe go about this another way: find the app you like the most, then stand up whatever backend it uses for sync.
I was already in the FreshRSS ecosystem, but man, I don’t really like any of the android apps on offer, but swapping at this point would be annoying (bookmarks, saved stories, etc.)
Also if you’ve never seen it, lazydocker might be something up your alley.
It’s a TUI, but it provides easy access to docker containers, logs, updating/restarting/stopping/etc them and so on.
You could also use nginx if you wanted; it’ll do arbitrary tcp data with the stream plugin.
I mean, recovery from parity data is how all of this works, this just doesn’t require you to have a controller, use a specific filesystem, have matching sized drives or anything else. Recovery is mostly like any other raid option I’ve ever used.
The only drawback is that the parity data is mostly equivalent in size to the actual data you’re making parity data of, and you need to keep a couple copies of indexes since if you lose the index or the parity data, no recovery for you.
In my case, I didn’t care: I’m using the oldest drives I’ve got as the parity drives, and the newer, larger drives for the data.
If i were doing the build now and not 5 years ago, I might pick a different solution but there’s something to be said for an option that’s dead simple (looking at you, zfs) and likely to be reliable because it’s not doing anything fancy (looking at you, btrfs).
From a usage (not technical) standpoint, the most equivalent commercial/prefabbed solution would probably be something like unraid.
A tool I’ve actually found way more useful than actual raid is snapraid.
It just makes a giant parity file which can be used to validate, repair, and/or restore your data in the array without needing to rely on any hardware or filesystem magic. The validation bit being a big deal, because I can scrub all the data in the array and it’ll happily tell me if something funky has happened.
It’s been super useful on my NAS, where it’s the only thing standing between my pile of random drives and data loss.
There’s a very long list of caveats as to why this may not be the right choice for any particular use case, but for someone wanting to keep their picture and linux iso collection somewhat protected (use a 321 backup strategy, for the love of god), it’s a fairly viable option.
Yeah, I noticed that.
It’s on my to-do list for next week since I should have time to sort that out/file a bug if it’s something that’s not a configuration error.
thought more than 2%
What confuses me is a survey earlier this year was 2.32%, so why the actual regression?
I’d have expected it to go up with more time to sell steam decks and whatnot, not regress by 15%.
I’m not sure I buy that: Trump is a cult, and his cultists are going to have an absolute riotous fit if someone tries to depose him.
Short of him dying or doing something you just can’t ignore - like, say, he eats shit out of his diaper on national tv - he’s not going anywhere.
Vance isn’t smart enough to 6D chess his way into the presidency without his nominal constituency rioting over it, so I’m doubtful that’s his play.
He’s probably just going to pull the last-guy-in-the-room thing, since that’s the only person Trump listens to or remembers anyway which means you keep the cultists happy AND you get the figurehead to do what you want anyways without the mess.
