  • As an example I'm on Linux for a decade now but I also use proprietary services. I use Jellyfin and Netflix, Vim and Jetbrains IDEs, Chess.com instead of Lichess, WhatsApp instead of Matrix.

    Sometimes the value proposition does it for me, sometimes it's the network effect. I've ditched reddit because I like Lemmy more but I can see how someone wants to stay in touch with their niche communities that don't really exist on Lemmy. Probably some people use both.

  • In response to calling a prophet bald:

    "So he turned around and looked at them, and pronounced a curse on them in the name of the LORD. And two female bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the youths." -New King James bible, 2 Kings 2:24

    This is the real way to turn the other cheek

  • Pope Francis was a great pope.

    He removed the necessity to get authorization from the Vatican in sexual abuse cases.

    Allowed some women to vote in the Synod of Bishops.

    Took a stance against death penalties.

    Apologised for Catholic Church actions against indigenous Canadians.

    Generally whenever he took a stance it was the morally right one.

    The Catholic Church is still corrupt but Pope Francis was a great man.

  • I'm gonna cast doubt on this. It happened too conveniently after people figured out long distance sea travel.

    If they would have floated it's much more likely that it happened somewhere in the last million years rather than the last 500.

    The economy could really use a state run video library online where it's mandatory for all movies and shows are sold for pay-per-view for media preservation and access.

    Werewolf/mafia games, is anyone here able to win them?

    I consistently lose and always fail the vibe checks. I have given up on trying to win and now I sow chaos for fun when people insist on playing them.

    It's a fun trick to enjoy the game even if winning is off the table.

    Sleeping tricks

    I'm looking for sleeping tricks and thought some other people here might have similar issues or good tricks. Can be anything from getting the motivation to go to sleep to actually tricks to falling asleep.

    My current trickbook is basically this:

    Podcasts, but it has to be in some goldilocks zone of interesting to enough to keep attention but not too good so it gets exciting.

    I've also done meditation in bed when falling asleep that tends to work.

    Consistent routine is good. Shower, brush teeth, lights off, episode, sleep.

    I'm curious to see what other autistic people are working with here.

    Chrono Trigger (SNES 1995)

    I'm born in 1992 so this game is a bit before my time. I started playing it and got completely hooked. It's an absolutely fantastic game that would still hold up as a quality indie game today.

    Music is amazing. Characters and character development is amazing. Story is very good. Combat is genuinely fun instead of feeling like a chore that cuts you off from the game. Art style is amazing.

    I was surprised how much quality they could fit onto the SNES back it the day, it's a really good game and everyone with a potato can ploy it.

    Pro tip: Remasters have some UI unpleasantness so it's best to stick to SNES emu version. I tried the Android and they used some native android font that ruined the immersion a bit. There's also a tight running section that's particularly unsuited for the mobile version. SNES is best, as originally intended.

    Help wanted: Girlfriend said she was feeling Khorne-y

    So I of course screamed BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD and SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE like any reasonable human being. Then maimed some people with a knife, drank their blood etc.

    She won't talk to me now and I don't understand why. Do you guys think the knife was to small?

    Any help very much appreciated.

    Activities destroyed when swapping apps HyperOS

    Does anybody else experience that Android activities get destroyed and rebuilt all the time when switching between apps?

    Browser page gets reloaded and form values disappear.

    Authorising a payment in different app can make the payment fail.

    General bad experience when multitasking 3 apps and swapping between.

    (I'm on Redmi Note 12 with HyperOS)

    Who of you guys are on an "Unknown" OS?

    I've been wondering how many Linux users are being listed as unknown by statcounter out of curiosity. There has been a big global bump "Unknown".

    Obvious ones are UserAgent spoofers Vpn users but I feel like that's pretty niche. I'm wondering if SteamOS, Endeavour and BSD show up as Unknown. Furthermore, will just all non-Ubuntu based OS?

    Distro for a local "cloud gaming" no monitor desktop

    I'm looking for a specific distro to handle some tasks.

    I got a second hand rig with Nvidia GTX 1050 that I want to use as a home server. I wanted to use HoloISO but it doesn't support nvidia. If someone says "do it anyway, it's fine" I'll install it though.

    The idea is to support a Jellyfin server and Steam Link gaming but steam is not big on Nvidia so it's hard to narrow down "black screen" issues etc. I'm also planning to manage it via VNC and SSH.

    I'm familiar with Ubuntu based systems since I develop software on Ubuntu based KDE distro but never had a graphics card.

    So it boils down to:

    • Ease of setup including nvidia drivers
    • Ease of update via command line (I'm not going to download nvidia drivers from their website to update proprietary drivers)
    • Graphics performance
    • Prefer Ubuntu based

    I'm up for Gnome, Xface, Cinnamon, KDE or whatever DE.

    Edit: Changed title to better reflect requirements and not have misleading "headless" and "server" in it

    Shoutout to this guy on github

    The setup and instructions helped a lot with setting up. My library is small and local now but the future is bright. Thank you all for writing info answers and docs.

    Special thanks for all the devs of Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr, Torrent clients and nzb360.

    Extra special thanks to the devs at Jellyfin. Honestly this whole set blew my mind.
