daq,

How exactly are you donating to Firefox? Mozilla foundation is not Firefox and Firefox is unlikely to see any money you give to Mozilla.

daq,

They need to introduce bounty system so people can give money for specific features.

As far as I’m concerned they only produce two useful pieces of software: Firefox and Thunderbird. The rest of the money is going into a black hole.

daq,

I am talking about Diablo 4.

There’s no crash log, Proton log just abruptly stops when the game freezes.

I did try all Proton versions including custom and ge with same results.

I bought the game via steam, so I’d have install via steam even if I use Lutris, right? Not sure how Lutris works.

Steam and game use correct gpu so that’s not an issue, but I will try to hide Nvidia gpu and see if it helps. I decided to start with OS reinstall. If that doesn’t work I’ll try the other suggestions.

Thank you.

daq,

Dota still works on Linux and is a far superior game. Fight me :-)

daq,

Wine

daq,

I’m a fairly primitive Excel user so online version or Libre Calc are more than enough for me on the rare occasions I need it.

daq,

You realize that all Soviet republics were part of WWII? A lot of the success was due to the fact that SU was able to throw millions of people (including Ukrainians) into the grinder. That same tactic is failing russia miserably because unless you only get your news from russian propaganda you will quickly realize just how many people they are losing constantly.

daq,

I’m playing D4 at 4K on medium settings. No complaints. This is on a 3yo laptop with 1080ti in an external enclosure hooked up via Thunderbolt.

daq,

CF tunnels are layer 3, not 7 and they have support for web sockets. It’s basically wireguard VPN with a few extras built on top.

…cloudflare.com/…/cloudflare-tunnels-faq/

daq,

No, but I thought I clarified that when I said it’s basically wireguard VPN which operates using tcp/udp (layer 3.) layer 7 is stuff like https. CF tunnels are lower level.

Page you linked is missing the layer between CF and source server so it doesn’t indicate layer. You can lookup wireguard protocol if you want more details.

daq,

Just curious what issues you ran into? Asking as a suse daily driver for about 20 years now, but promise not to proselytize.

daq,

I’m also on Connect. Despite the fact that developer occasionally is a bit slow, I found nothing better. It was annoying to be locked out of my main server when they silently upgraded to 0.19 and Connect dev did not add support for it for several weeks.

daq,

It offered zero reasons for anyone with existing home automation setup to switch. Z-wave and even zigbee is better in almost every way. And it can’t compete with basic wifi based devices because it is much more expensive and more complicated to setup. I felt it was DOA when I first heard about it and it looks like I was right.

daq,

My problem with appimage is that they never work. Every time I tried one, best case scenario it crashed with a random error message. All attempts to fix them were damn near impossible to debug.

It honestly felt like they were not universal enough and still relied on certain libraries being available on OS. Hopefully I’m wrong because that would completely defeat their purpose. I stopped wasting time on them after Plex and VLC both failed to run reliably and switched to flatpak that “just works” 100% of the time.

To be honest most of the time I look for an rpm anyway. Flatpaks are always a last resort. I’m on OpenSuse Tumbleweed.

daq,

The power supplies feeding these are typically .5A at 5v so they can’t draw more than ~2.5w. Is that really enough to generate sufficient heat to start a fire? Maybe if they are wrapped around something incredibly flammable?

daq,

Works really well if you only have one user. But my car, unfortunately, has wireless apple car play, but only wired Android auto. Apple device always gets priority and creates issues for aa wireless a lot.

Posts don't appear to propagate to other instances

So I’m noticing that I don’t seem to get any engagement when I’m posting replies to posts generated on other instances. Just now I thought I’d go directly to a thread on lemmy.world to see if my comment was showing there but it isn’t. Other non lemmy.world users are showing up....

daq,

Is there a status page for sdf.org services somewhere that actually gets updated? Or at least release/update log?

Incredibly annoying to just lose access to services without any notifications.

Is anyone from sdf IT team even here? Do you guys need help? I’d be happy to offer my time/expertise.

daq,

I think the point is all these features are supported by RCS. Open standard that would be trivial for Apple to implement. They choose not to because they are greedy cunts. They are fully aware that this causes bullying and inability of tech illiterate to communicate with their friends/family.

Nobody older than 13 cares about color of text messages and most people recognize convenience of a single app for all messaging needs. This is an issue that Apple could trivially make disappear overnight if they weren’t cunts.

Fuck Apple.

daq,

I just put in the 420th vote for pure.

daq,

I keep thinking about checking one out, but nearest is 42 miles away and their prices are not competitive. I miss Fry’s.

daq,

Your biggest fear should be something like the CSAM attack from a few months ago. I doubt you have tens of thousands to spend on a lawyer.

That’s why I killed my instance.

daq,

Public registration has nothing to do with federation. My instance required admin approval for all new registrations. Illegal content is much more likely to come through federation than from inside.

IMHO, the few reasons to host your own instance largely disappeared with 0.19 and the risks were never worth the rewards to run a tiny instance. Things are likely to continue improving with future releases. Which is why sdf.org became my main.
