ppp,

I don’t remember the last time I went to r/piracy except to check the megathread. Most of the content I came across there are low effort memes and low effort discussions but I had to check it recently to see pics of sexy pirates then I saw all the drama.

I’m absolutely disgusted by subs whose essence supposedley is anti-corpo yet aren’t planning to moving to another platform because they love Reddit so much! Of course, some mods in r/piracy actually made the effort to get people elsewhere but a lot of the users turned out to be corporate bootlickers.

I hope the users get charged a monthly subscription to access Reddit so they could come here to ask for modded Reddit apps.

Anyway, I don’t really care what happens to r/piracy. There’s a copy of the megathread here and if I need help, then I’m sure the users here are much more knowledgeable.

PC players, what is your preferred way of playing the game?

I can play with both Controller and Mouse&Keyboard but I'm kinda bias towards M&K since that's what I started with, even though I always play 3rd person action RPG on PC with a Controller and I still like using it for Genshin but for some reason it feels a little off for me, what about you?

ppp,

Mouse and keyboard. I have never owned a controller my entire life.

ppp,

The last feature I liked from Discord was screensharing. Everything else since has been useless or outright terrible.

ppp,

I run a game server (Valheim) on mine but since my friends and I haven't been playing lately, I might repurpose it for something else in the meantime.

ppp,

I'm torn as well. I find it easier to navigate Lemmy but Kbin's interface feels much more polished.

As someone who wants to self-host an instance, which would you guys recommend? I've been reading through the documentation for both and Lemmy seems easier to install. Does anyone have experience with both? I'm interested to know how well they scale in terms of performance.

edit: And to add, I'm not a fan of kbin's "microblog" and "magazine" is a strange word for "community".

ppp,

Finally, multi-layer minimap. I hope they add more QoL stuff.

ppp,

I found out about it years ago (before the pandemic) at r/privacytoolsio or r/privacy or something.

ppp,

Interesting. I just searched some topics related to a paper I'm working on and found some good resources which I haven't seen on Google yet. Really interesting.

ppp,

I switched over to Netim after Gandi announced their new prices and removed the free mailboxes. They're a bit pricey (close to current Gandi pricing) but it comes with a mailbox (1GB) and a 250MB website.

@piracy Apparently Google Bard and ChatGPT can give you valid Windows10 keys. I wonder what other keys you can extract from them?

ppp,

They're generic keys IIRC.

ppp,

Satoshi Kon. It's unfortunate his filmography is short but he's made some of the best Japanese animated films.

ppp,

Can't wait! I really loved the last two summer events. I hope this one is just as good!

ppp,

Link to those who don't want to deal with the paywall.

What's your "base" stack of choice?

How do you set up a server? Do you do any automation or do you just open up an SSH session and YOLO? Any containers? Is docker-compose enough for you or are you one of those unicorns who had no issues whatsoever with rootless Podman? Do you use any premade scripts or do you hand craft it all? What distro are you building on top...

ppp,

Debian + nginx + docker (compose).

That's usually enough for me. I have all my docker compose files in their respective containers in the home directory like ~/red-discordbot/docker-compose.yml.

The only headache I've dealt with are permissions because I have to run docker as root and it makes a lot of messy permissions in the home directories. I've been trying rootless docker earlier and it's been great so far.

edit: I also use rclone for backups.

ppp,

Just wanted to add that you also get two free AMD64 servers (1C/1GB). Been using mine for a year now but I do agree - don't use it for anything personal or critical. Make backups!

Are there alternatives to platforms like youtube and twitch.

I do like watching videos on theses platforms but if your someone who wants to create gaming or random videos then youtube feels overcrowded. is there a less overcrowded, option to look into, and im still debating if i should watch videos or make videos as a hobby. you all got any tips or suggestions aswell by chance?

ppp,

Honestly, if you're someone making gaming videos, it's hard to find an audience in other platforms.

ppp,

I don't know if it counts but I've been using pandoc for the entirety of my college life so far which includes creating presentations and writing papers. For collaboration with other students, we would usually use Google Docs. It's pretty much the standard nowadays.

What disros works on low end, slow, very outdated pc's?

So i have a bunch of pc's/laptops/computers and such that my family members refuse to depart with even though there really bad. so far they mangae to keep 4 bulky computers in total, we do have some new-ish ones but theses ones im talking about need some loving.1 computer is 32 bit and has 2gb of ram, the other 3 have 64-bit and...

ppp,

I've used Debian on an old netbook with an Intel Atom and onyl 2GB RAM. The experience wasn't so bad but web browsing was definitely a pain. Video calling and watching YouTube (Firefox) was very sluggish and annoying to deal with. It's fine for working with documents and watching low resolution videos locally but that's about it.

I've also tried antiX but a lot of the defaults were annoying. If you (or your family members) can deal with it, then it's probably the best lightweight Linux distro out there.

are there any linux distros that might work becasue im a noob who uses windows so im very lost. any tips or suggestions or something would be great.

In this case, I recommend just leaving your family members to do their own thing. From my experience, it is very hard to manage other people's Linux issues if you don't have decent knowledge on it yourself. If they don't want to upgrade, that's their problem. Not yours.

ppp,

I don't remember but I might have. I think the netbook's processor itself performed poorly though. I managed to watch the entire Mandalorian on it with VLC back then but watching something on YouTube made me want to throw the poor thing across the room.

What are you're favorite FOSS games to play and why?

I love Endless Sky, it's honestly one of my favorite games! I have a pack of cool SciFi art that I found on Nexus and I've been slowly replacing the stock photos for my personal game. I'm also a sucker for TeeWorlds, it is delightfully infuriating and hillarious to play. I know that's baby's first FOSS games but I'm new to open...

ppp,

osu!lazer

ppp,

Here's a video about it.

If you don't know what osu! is, it's a really popular rhythm game where you click circles to the beat or rhythm of a song.

"lazer" is their new open source client they've been developing for several years now.
