Me too, but fair warning to double check on the links if it is something niche. Perplexity can not always be trusted to interpret limited information properly. It does a pretty good job on enough for me to use it though.
Hello. I’ve been silenced, removed and blocked enough on lemmy dot ml for being a filthy leftist but not a falling in line defending totalitarian states full blown authoritarian communist. Sooo I’m blocking everything from lemmy dot ml so I don’t have to be bothered with any more of that nonsense. If you are on lemmy dot ml and commenting on me I will not see it. Ta ta.

It’s the new “#first” to call everything AI. People that have nothing to contribute but need some attention.
Pretty much anything that is real Linux including running applications with a GUI. The limitation is that everything is behind an abstraction layer so no direct access to hardware. The great thing is that you can try out different distros and go nuts trying things out and if you break one instance you can just reset it. Have fun.


I’ve decided long ago to not use libraries or other packages with any remotely sexually suggestive anime/furry mascots or graphics in the repo or docs or even developers avatars. I prefer we work with a less perfect fit and do what we must for our needs.
Fuck me if I’m in a business meeting and a higher up or client decides to look something in the spec up and lands on that GitHub page. No way I’m interested in explaining or justifying any of it because why would I.


It’s a stupid strategy for a stupid Linux distro from a newly bought company that has barely yet legs to stand on, not to mention products or income. Their market is to cash in on middle aged surplus nostalgia money of 8/16-bit computers. Now they are putting themselves on the line to become support for any number of clueless users with random computer hardware for their own Linux distro and a fuckton of freeware games they shovel along with it any other software people want to run and they will get absolutely nothing for it.
I was thinking before that will become yet another chapter of the Commodore trademark ownership saga from bad business decisions to the next and that chapter seems to be shortening itself fast.


The fallout for people knowingly risking their data beta testing a filesystem that is still in experimental and some users running into issues and possibly corruption?
There are no stories because it is not a story when a test environment for finding bugs fails and the bugs get fixed. Nobody with data they can not lose are putting it on bcachefs because why would they.
Thanks for running a test environment though. Please take backups of anything important, just in case.


That the developer himself finds it absolutely necessary to push new code outside the window for upcoming versions of the kernel is a pretty good indication.


It was nowhere close to be mature enough to be in the kernel. The developer is nowhere close to be mature enough to be involved in the kernel. It’s better for everybody if it is developed separately and maybe integrated again at a later stage when the file system and tooling are considered stable and changes are smaller and less sensitive. CacheFS being in the kernel might mislead people to rely on a filesystem that is still experimental and under heavy development. Personally I am looking forward to see it mature because I’d love to run it on my file storage home server when it is stable enough.


I get a new banner every time I reload so it might be unrelated to the project.
But it’s been a thing with a lot of open source software the last years to have weird anime and hentai bullshit¹ in them and asking the developers to to think twice renders a wall of horny geeks calling names.
Edit: ¹as in sexually suggestive and unacceptable in a professional setting, and that most people outside the bubble find inappropriate or disturbing or even offensive


Chinese OEM resellers will print anything on the product and the packaging. It’s just another sale for them. Same guy probably sells it with ten different brandings and flags and quotes and slogans for different markets.


Most C64 games are less than 64KB, the largest ones are maybe one megabyte. So counting generously that would be 200MB in total. I think a minimal Linux that runs on most hardware with Vice and game selector front-end would be a gig maximum. So what did they put in there? Uncompressed 4K long play video?
Edit; Oh, 200+ “Linux compatible games”. So they pre-installed whatever Linux distro had in games. But it still sounds excessively large to me. I don’t know if I see the point in downloading everything for an installation when I’m probably not interested in most of it anyway. Then again, weird decisions is legacy Commodore so points for authenticity.


Sorry, it wasn’t directed towards you. I was thinking out loud.


I got one the last time I moved houses. Now I’m very glad I have one whenever I am about to send or return a package, reinforce a box or do some quick and dirty fixes that would make landlords weep.


And we’re all adult enough to handle reading the words.
It’s such a strange idea to use bad words but okay it by censoring letters out. Either use the word or don’t.


I think cancer treatment will be more costly than a new pair of earbuds or whatever your next cheap accessory that is leaking unknown chemicals.
Different countries have different languages, alphabets and keyboard layouts. Scandinavian countries keyboards are quite commonly produced together because they share most but not all of the letters, symbols and positions. This looks pretty standard to me.
Edit: As a user from respective country you learn fast to read automatically the position for shared keys before you learn touch typing or looking for an uncommonly used symbol. The real annoyance is when laptop makers switch up key positions because they think they know better.


Thanks! Do you know if it possible to run Qobuz headless or in a docker container or some of the sort? I did some searching but couldn’t find anything.


I’ve been on Tidal for some time but noticed that Qobuz has released a connect service that seems to work like Sp*tify Connect so that you can remote control one instance from another. Like, playing music on computer connected to amp can be controlled through the phone.
I’d appreciate if somebody using Qobuz could confirm?


Install both, let her try them out and decide for herself.
