Sounds like a solid plan! I would be surprised if the public opinion here would be any different. There are no billionaires on Lemmy.
I hope it allows to claim the weekly free games in the store to add to the ever growing list of never played games in my library.... š
This is also how I have it set up, with "firefox multi-account containers" and "simple tab groups" working together, you can have multiple containerized accounts within one firefox instance. Works great!
Also, the difference between the tone of the speechea between Harris and Trump are like day and night. Where Trump continues to throw dirt and spew so much negativity, Harris sounds like someone who steps beyond the dirt throwing and really comes with a vision and ideas how to govern the country.
Well, my 2cts from someone on the other end of the Atlantic š
At this point I am seriously wondering why people would like to use Chrome over Firefox for instance.
I have been using Linux on the desktop over the last 3 decades on and off, and my homelab is fully on Linux. But for the desktop I rely on some audio workstation software that is just too expensive and good to not use.... Maybe, when Windows 10 support is ended I might have to do the switch....
Microsoft pauses Windows 11 full-screen alerts on Windows 10 after feedback
Finally no more nagging to upgrade to Windows 11..... for now...
However, I literally got the full screen nagging just a week ago.
AMD published a list with the mitigation on Sinkclose on all their processor ranges, and the ComboPI version that will have a patch:
Use of hardware enablement package kernel might help here? It is called linux-generic-hwe or something like that. It will install a much newer kernel with more support for newer hardware.
You can easily selfhost Seafile and make a ādropboxā like system with as many users you like, and as large a storage you can handle / afford. Although there is an enterprise version, the community edition provides with many features to make it really a great service. It is mighty fast, and has native clients for many different platforms, in addition to using the Seafile website to acces, upload and download files.
I never hosted Nextcloud, but from what I read, it is a beast with way too many features to fit my use case. Seafile is doing one thing very well.
Yes true. I agree Sainz is the better driver of the two Ferrari drivers. He is on peak performance! Whichever team will get him, will get a smart, motivated and skilled driver for sure!
youād think they start to wonder why they put Leclerc as the first driver, and letting the better race driver goā¦ On the other hand, they were on different strategies, so it is not all to blame on the driver.
We have to speed up technology so that it outpaces us humans getting older!
That's the right question to ask! It may have to do with the Halo effect as well. Even though the influencer not necessarily is a celebrity, they have build a certain level of trust with their followers I guess... In any case, I dont get it either, but I may fall out of the audience for any influencer I guess...
Ah, that is a good point. I am using 6.5.0 kernel atm, as part of the HWE (hardware enablement) package, which supports QuckSync / hardware encoding of my 12th gen intel processor. I did a quick search, but did not find HWE for Debian is that correct?
Yes, I am running unattended-upgrades, and basically my current server is running 24/7 just fine! It is indeed like set and forget already. More reason to move to Debian!
It seems to be the most logical move to go from Ubuntu to Debian indeed. As I understand it maintains the core Linux system as I have it now (systemd / apt / stable kernel) while truly community driven. I have to look into transitioning into the latest stable Debian release.
Linux distro for selfhosting server
So I have been running a fair amount of selfhosted services over the last decade or so. I have always been running this on a Ubuntu LTS distribution running on a intel NUC machine. Most, if not all of my services run in a docker container, and using a docker compose file that brings everything up. The server is headless. I connect over ssh into a tmux config so I am always ready to go.
Ubuntu has been my stable server choice over the years. I've made the upgrade from 16, 18, 20 and 22 LTS release and everything has kept working. I even upgraded the hardware (old NUC to a new NUC) and just imaged the disk from the old one onto the new machine, and the server kept chugging along quite nicely, after I configured the hardware (specifically the Intel QuickSync for hardware transcoding in the Plex container).
Since Ubuntu has been transitioning from a really open community driven effort into a commercial enterprise, I feel it may be time to look at other distributions. On the other hand, it will require a fair amount of work to make the switch. But if it needs to be done, than so be it. I guess I am looking for opinions on what Linux distribution would fit my particular use case, and am wondering what most of us here are running.
TLDR; What stable, long term supported Linux distributions do you recommend for a headless server running a stack of docker containers?
Iām hyped for this seson to start! Very curious to see where all teams will be after the first couple of races. Many new car designs, Hamilton sitting out his last year at Mercedes, great stuff!
interesting! So I should be able to throw my docker-compose yamls directly at Podman and be good to go?
just curious; why would you like to use podman over docker? I have a lot of docker containers running, wondering if I should switch to podman.
Solasta as a platform for solo DnD?
So this may be a silly question. Long time ago I played D&D with friends. We had a good DM, and had a great time as a party of friends roleplaying an interesting adventure. Fast forward to now, where life, family, work and all not easily allows to currently play with a great roleplaying group.
So, looking to fill in a bit of the fun, I was looking at doing some solo RPG with FoundryVTT and the Mythic Game Engine. However, focusing more on D&D 5E mechanics in combat I discovered the game Solasta: Crown of the Magister. It looks like it provides a great environment to do some 'quick' D&D combat sessions with some light roleplaying. Also, it allows people to create their own adventures and share them. So, on paper it should tick many of the boxes of solo D&D.
Has anyone played with Solasta? What did you like from a D&D perspective? And what not?
BTW, I'm also playing BG3 (100hrs currently into the game).
<p>Patch #1 is now live for Baldur's Gate 3, addressing over 1000 bugs, glitches, and blockers.</p> <ul> </ul>
The first large major patch has just been released, with more than a 1000 fixes! .

Forgotten Realms (Sword Coast) Interactive Map
Forgotten Realms (Sword Coast) Interactive Map : Wonder how far is Neverwinter from Waterdeep? We have zoom, distance calculator, display of area/regions, marks selection, and more !
For those wanting to get some geographical context of the Baldur's Gate and the Forgotten Realms, this links to an interactive map with many of the well known places, including Baldur's Gate itself.
This is not directly related to the game, but it is within the same universe and realm as BG3 takes place.
Karmic Dice - yes or no?
Somewhere during the Early Access Larian introduced the loaded / Karmic dice, to even out extreme effects of dice rolls. In EA this was enabled at default, and I assume the same will be true for the final release. It feels like it is a less pure D&D feature, since D&D gameplay is based on die rolls.
What do you think? Play with or without the Karmic Dice option enabled? And why?
How do you get a thumbnail to the site when posting a link to a site?
As the title states. When I post an url, I do not get a thumbnail, but a white box with the external link arrow. How can I get a small snapshot as a thumbnail for the post?
Should this be generated automatically? Or is this something that needs to be done manually? If so how?

My current pedal board
This is my current pedal board:
guitar Gibson Les Paul -> Korg Pitch Black -> MXR Compressor -> Big Muff (wicker) -> Lovepedal Eternity Kanji -> Little Green Wonder -> POG2 -> Pulsar -> MXR Carbon Copy -> Voodoo Vibe (vintage) -> Small Stone -> Line6 DL4 -> Ditto -> amp Hughes & Kettner statesman dual el84
Feels like a mixed bag, but I can get the tones I want. What do you think? Any suggestions?
