Go ahead and wait for the U.S. to implement a viable system. I’d bet it’ll be longer than our lifetimes before that even happens. And that’s ignoring what is probably the desire of keeping the status duo of a broken two party system like this.

I can’t tell you how much faith I’ve lost in the average person in America, especially compared to how… ok, I guess, the last election went and how tight, or possibly over this one is.

I can’t fathom how fucking stupid anyone would have to be to elect this orange piece of shit that has been upping the dangerous rhetoric constantly. America is broken and it isn’t worth fixing, especially not for the morons that somehow get him elected again. I just hope that I can get to a point in my career that I can move elsewhere, maybe Ireland or New Zealand or something, fuck.

Por que no los dos? They’d definitely use this capability to do both.

No. I’m not clueless or surprised. Just disappointed that we’re stooping to using AI bots to sow discord like Russia is doing.

Jesus, even before I read the article it read like the U.S wants to emulate disinformation campaigns others are using. The irony of three letter agencies condemning AI campaigns while the Pentagon is going “We want that”, is insane but its to be expected I guess.

Totally, I get it if its a means to an end to get something like Jellyfin up.

Maybe its a me thing. I just like to understand the mechanics of the tools I use.

I’ve never used Portainer but I feel a GUI setup like it just abstracts Docker and prevents learning concepts that are conducive to understanding Docker. That’s why I’ve never used a GUI to manage my Docker environment.

I use Alpine Linux. It’s exceptionally stable, great for pretty much any device and is best for small VPS with limited space/ram. Nice package manager too, but it is limited in packages.

It works great for me since I only use docker containers, but some things outside docker may require something like Debian instead.

Thanks for your work! I moved when I could finally import Wallabag bookmarks, and I’m loving everything so far.

I use Arkane Linux, which is based on Arch but is immutable. Every update is a new install. You can easily configure custom images to deploy for your specific wants or needs. It’s nice for keeping up to date with Arch while keeping how my machine is configured declared in an image. You can always roll back if something was wrong with the image you deployed too.

If you’re running the most recent kernel, I’d recommend moving to linux-lts. I have slightly similar specs, KDE Wayland, 6900 xt and 5800, and I had issues with games straight up crashing out my PC on the latest kernel.

If they get their hands on an LTSC ISO they can hold out on Windows 10 a little longer.

Intel gave more detail to Tom’s Hardware and they updated the article up top. This still sounds a little disingenuous to me, like they’re still trying to minimize the issue with words and no action.

Gamer’s Nexus has a recent video with some possible explanations.

I just started toying with Arkane Linux. It’s fairly easy enough to make your own image and they provide some simple templates you can use if you don’t want Gnome. To me, the greatest thing about Arch is the AUR and unfortunately it doesn’t support AUR packages out of the box. This might not be a problem since you could mostly get along with flatpaks or distrobox. It might be a chore for someone new to Arch to have to compile something straight from the AUR that your device needs to function, like what I’ve had to do.

This is just a small list, but plugins like beetcamp, deezer, and lastgenre among others have been helpful to tag music. If you use deemix or buy music from bandcamp those plugins are extremely helpful. Lastgenre needs some configuring and monitoring to make sure irrelevant tags aren’t assigned to songs though.

If you’re into scripting, calliope is another tool that can interact with Spotify, lastfm, and musicbrainz (though musicbrainz stuff in my experience was unreliable). I’m using calliope to scrap together a solution to sync my local favorites in my music library and sync that to Spotify. It can also create playlists for Spotify from your local music library, and get Lastfm recommendations based on an artist or song.

I look forward to using LinkWarden eventually! My current bookmark setup involves both LinkDing and WallaBag which is a little quirky. Hopefully soon Wallabag exports could be imported and I’d be good to migrate.

Privacy, Windows 11, and the fact that my system is more stable running Linux. I could count on a BSOD happening once or twice a week due to a driver issue with Windows 10. I still get strange crashes on Linux, but much less often.

For me, I know it doesn’t offer much privacy if its locally hosted, but the latency compared to using public instances is much better. Which may sound stupid, but at least I also don’t have to depend on another person for their instance.

I have been self-hosting a local Invidious instance for several months. I watch videos from it every day and I’ve had no IP ban so far.

I’ll boldly say that unless you have a multitude of games relying on anticheat, 90% of your game library works out of the box or just needs a little tinkering with Proton.
