Is PeerTube like Mastodon where I need to find an instance to call home but then I can subscribe to channels from any instance I want?

You want a touching animated story about a young woman holding on to hope at the end of the world?

Watch Godspeed.

It's a pilot for a show that is Kickstarter funded, run by folks whose shows got cancelled or in some cases were recently laid off.

It hits harder, emotionally speaking, than I thought it would considering I expected a comedy. But I want episode 2 so bad. Hoping the next few episodes can get funded!

Oh man, I am so easily convinced between the pro-Threads and anti-Threads arguments lol. I agree with the latest opinion I heard at this point.

@kev it's an unenviable position, so you have my sympathy. Lol

The more I think about it, the more I think Mastodon needs an ethical, community-run algorithm for its next stage of growth. If we want to see a new surge of monthly active users, I think the folks who are left on the outside are wanting some kind of recommendation for content.

My preference is a chronological feed from a mental health perspective, but if the people want an algorithm, it would still be a win to give folks ethical options in their control.

Do you have a plan or system for regularly donating to FOSS projects? What does it look like?

I find the etymology of surnames to be fascinating, maybe because my first and last name are pretty boring. I was in a meeting this morning with an individual with the last name of "Bonesteel". There's just GOT to be a story there.

@mike that's how you know who the protagonist is

Let's see how successful I am installing Bazzite today! My goal is to get Prism Launcher up and running and play a level of Doom from Steam.

Updating a computer I haven't used in 5 months. What can go wrong?

Joseph_of_Earth,
@Joseph_of_Earth@fosstodon.org avatar

Was going to encrypt this drive but:

  1. I don't know if Bazzite doesn't like it when you rebase and have an encrypted driver
  2. Don't feel like looking it up
  3. This will be a gaming PC pretty much exclusively, so data on me is limited
  4. Laptop will like never leave my house

I'm starting by installing Silverblue and then rebasing instead of trying UBlue's installer. Since I'm going to the Bazzite-Asus image specifically I didn't see any direct installation instructions for it, so rebasing seemed safer.

Joseph_of_Earth,
@Joseph_of_Earth@fosstodon.org avatar

Alright, I entered the rebasing command and it seems to be thinking for a bit. No feedback yet in the terminal to let me know what the deal is. Is it downloading the other image right now?

Joseph_of_Earth,
@Joseph_of_Earth@fosstodon.org avatar

Almost there! I'm in the unsigned Bazzite image I rebased to. Next step, rebase to the signed Bazzite-Asus image.

Joseph_of_Earth,
@Joseph_of_Earth@fosstodon.org avatar

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I'm going through the setup wizard now. I wonder what will happen when I rebase.

Joseph_of_Earth,
@Joseph_of_Earth@fosstodon.org avatar

Ok, I tried rebasing to the Asus image for F39 and I think something messed with the signature. Going to try the latest version to see...

Joseph_of_Earth,
@Joseph_of_Earth@fosstodon.org avatar

Alright, trying F38?

Joseph_of_Earth,
@Joseph_of_Earth@fosstodon.org avatar

We're cooking! I have the image up and working. Will have to figure out how to get it to work with Secure Boot since I had to disable that, but at least it's in a workable state.

Trying Steam next.

Joseph_of_Earth,
@Joseph_of_Earth@fosstodon.org avatar

And we're playing Doom on Steam lets goooooo!! So far Bazzite has been super awesome to use and I'm excited to keep playing with it!

Any recommendations on a kanban style app that's native to Linux? I want to organize my tasks with an Eisenhower decision matrix and a Kanban board would be great for that. Most of what I'm finding are task lists which I don't want because they don't take advantage of horizontal screen real estate.

    @grueproof I love that documentary! It was awesome to learn about a time in computers that I was too young for, but also to see how similar online communities still are to that time.

    Joseph_of_Earth,
    @Joseph_of_Earth@fosstodon.org avatar

    wow it is spooky how well that upgrade went. im already done. there's nothing else for me to do

    Thank you to @kde for having a graphical way of upgrading! It was a pleasant surprise when I saw I didn't have to continue this process in the terminal!
