2nd hand Samsung from 3 years ago is still better and cheaper.

Cheaper? Yes. Better? Hell no, unless you can root it and install a custom ROM.

The only notable thing about Bazzite is that it’s built on top of Fedora Atomic, making it immutable like SteamOS.

Without that, it’s just a regular old distro with some opinions about which software should be preinstalled.

Wouldn’t the Steam Flatpak still work?

Throwing a tantrum isn’t how to get what you want. This is a common behavior in the OSS world from wannabe BDFLs. Linus Torvalds or Guido van Rossum earned that title through merit, not through the simple luck of your side project going viral.

Bazzite is just Fedora Atomic with some extra preinstalled software. If it dies, it’ll hurt the community of Linux gamers who picked it for whatever reason, but it won’t make Fedora maintain 32 bit packages forever.

Tbh it’s not as bad as I was expecting. Those clips could definitely have resulted in an accident, but the system seems to actually work most of the time. I wonder if it couldn’t be augmented with lidar at this point to make it more reliable? A live stress test is ridiculously irresponsible and will definitely kill people, but at least it’s only Texans at risk (for now).

I was skeptical of the idea of robotaxis, but this kind of sold me on it. If they’re cheaper than human drivers, I might even be able to get rid of my car some day. It doesn’t change the fact that I’ll never get into one because the CEO is a nazi though.

Anyone know why the Signal app isn’t available on F-Droid? Isn’t it supposed to be open source?

This is why grammar is important, and “grammar nazis” are the only good kind of nazis.

Lol you must be new around here. The .ml people are certified tankies.

U think ylu misread. The “over 30” is on the negative branch of “over 60”

I hope this doesn’t mean that the PeerTube devs are tankies too

GrayJay most of time asks for login because Google indicates it is a bot

Whenever it does that, I just open the Google login page and start clicking links (like the privacy policy, FAQ, reset password, etc) to “prove” that I’m human. That usually works at least for one video, if not more.

Yeah personally I much prefer Freetube’s UI over Grayjay (on desktop at least). For example, the subscription feed has an annoyingly huge list of subscribed channels that takes up like 25% of the screen real-estate, and you can’t hide it. It’s also pointless because there’s another list of your subscriptions on the left side of the screen. It also can’t be launched automatically when opening a YT link with the LibRedirect firefox extension, whereas Freetube can.

But besides design issues like that, Grayjay is much more reliable than Freetube when it comes to bypassing Youtube’s bot protections.

Wow, I thought that was just a weird bug with my system config. It actually started working a couple of weeks ago, but for the longest time I could only launch it by double-clicking it through dolphin lol

I’ll admit I only have a shallow familiarity with VLC, but I’d be surprised if it was capable of doing these things:

• Subscribe to Youtube channels (plus a bunch of other platforms)
• Get ‘related’ videos
• Browse and search individual channels

Lol I’m not reading all that.

Proton’s CEO is a fan of the MAGA hate cult, so they can fuck off. I’ll use another VPN and not lose sleep over it.

We are swiftly reaching a time where boycotting companies run by people you disagree with will negatively impact your ability to function. Consider abandoning this type of purchasing in the future.

LOL

LMAO, even.

Since y’all probably know more about VPNs than me, is Mullvad any good? I bought them to use for torrents, though haven’t tried seeding anything yet. I assume they’re good with that?

Also, anyone know if they’re run by MAGA creeps?

ez pz:

#!/usr/sbin/nft -f
table inet filter {
    chain input {
        type filter hook input priority raw; policy accept;
        iif "lo" accept
        ct state established,related accept
        iif "enp1s0" udp dport 51820 accept
        iif "enp1s0" drop
    }

    chain forward {
        type filter hook forward priority raw; policy accept;
        iif "lo" accept
        ct state established,related accept
        iif "enp1s0" udp dport 51820 accept
        iif "enp1s0" drop
    }

    chain output {
        type filter hook output priority raw; policy accept;
    }
}

My new strategy is to block EVERY port except WireGuard. This doesn’t work for things you want to host publicly ofc, like a website, but for most self host stuff I don’t see anything better than that.

I really don’t like this idea. The series has always been “pseudo mature”, by which I mean it portrays itself as being for older audiences, but doesn’t have any real meat on them bones. It’s all fluff and aesthetics around good gameplay.

They should just stick to the games imo
