Ah yes, I see it’s time for the people in shorts to kick the ball again, as hundreds of people who have seemingly lost all politeness and semblance of being human beings shout, scream, and « sing » in the streets and take up every single cm of the walkways with their cars.

I can’t wait to move so I’m no longer close to the f**king stadium. I hate football and football supporters so much, it turns into irrational anger.

@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social avatar

Did I know my current flat was « close » (10 minutes walk) to the stadium when I bought it? Yeah.

Did I think people would be so obnoxious and the city would have 0 parking spots around the stadium? No. Seriously, what makes this acceptable when it’s football, but when it’s people protesting, we sent the police to hit them with sticks? Insane.

@AngryAnt So true it hurts.

@charadon Yep, that seems to be the main reasoning these days

@matt Haha that’s a good idea!

@thelinuxEXP Sorry if this question was answered before, but why are your videos usually 50 FPS instead of 60 FPS? I would say 60 FPS matches better with the devices that web videos are usually watched on. Is there a reason you chose 50 FPS?

thelinuxEXP,
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social avatar

@fell I live in France, where light bulbs flicker at 50hz. If I record (and when I did) at 60fps, I get some nasty light flickering in the background, which some people didn’t notice, but others really did :)

I realized that I never explained the various differences between all the different kernel variants, and since my Patrons and YouTube members voted for me to cover that topic, here we are!

I’ll go over what the real time, low latency, TKG, Zen, Liquorix, XanMod, Libre, LTS, or hardened kernels are, and which one you should pick!

@ponda I’m pretty sure it’s just the generic Linux kernel, with fsync patches added to improve performance on Windows games that run with versions of Wine or Proton that have fsync enabled

thelinuxEXP,
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social avatar

@bargoderea That would require live patching the kernel, Ubuntu offers such a service, a regular sponsor of the channel, TuxCare, also does, although I’m pretty sure they don’t support Arch based systems!

#WhereIsMySurprisedFace

Facebook/Meta starts talking about the "Extend" phase of Embrace, Extend, Extinguish as predicted:

"“You could imagine an extension to the protocol eventually — of saying like, ‘I want to support micropayments,’ or … like, ‘hey, feel free to show me ads, if that supports you.’ Kind of like a way for you to self-label or self-opt-in. That would be great,”

@fabio @Techaltar @dansup @jwildeboer Yeah, honestly, if there was an easy way to support me on PeerTube, I would much likely promote that first instead of YouTube. I would at least try to push PeerTube first for a while to see if that worked out.

Same for the podcast on Castopos, I would invest more time and effort on it if it could easily be user supported without having to mention Patreon in each episode.

thelinuxEXP,
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social avatar

@Chocobozzz @fabio @Techaltar @dansup @jwildeboer It’s just a link to another payment system, with no integrations inside of Peertube though (unless I’m mistaken?)

Something like financially subscribing to a channel to get members-only content, or just setting up a « each time I watch a video from this person, I want to pay 1 cent automatically » sort of preference, these types of things :)

thelinuxEXP,
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social avatar

@gabek @Chocobozzz @fabio @dansup @Techaltar @jwildeboer I don’t care if it’s centralized, or in the protocol. But right now, Peertube can’t be used as my « main » video platform:

If people want to contribute through PayPal and Patreon and anything else, that’s great, but in this case, integrations are needed so people can link these accounts to get something in exchange for their contribution.

Well, my game didn’t go well, as I tried out a dumb Dread Mob list with a Stompa! Sisters of Battle wrecked the poor thing with multi meltas, and did the same to my Gorkanaut in the same turn.

Losing half my army in one turn left me struggling, we finished the game on 53 to 75. I drew horrendous secondaries that I could never score, and my poor Ork boyz got slaughtered by the Triumph of Saint Katherine. Still, insanely fun game, and the Stompa exploding caused a lot of damage!

thelinuxEXP,
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social avatar

@stallmer I play almost every week, but I don’t talk about it much, since that’s probably not what most people expect from this account :)

Still, while 40K isn’t awesome right now, at least in terms of mission design, I’m having a blast. Since I stopped caring so much about winning and just strted playing to have fun, it made the game a lot more enjoyable 😁

thelinuxEXP,
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social avatar

@markusmunch @stallmer Sure, I could post some pictures at some point !

thelinuxEXP,
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social avatar

@markusmunch @stallmer Here is my Ulfthak, that Inpainted a few weeks back, for example! Nothing super fancy, but decent enough, I guess!

Video of a Warhammer 40K Ork warboss names Ulfthak, painted and rotating to show all angles

thelinuxEXP,
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social avatar

@markusmunch @stallmer That’s so cool! I really want to get a Knight as well at some point!

Painting is my escape as well, you just turn your brain off, it’s fantastic!

thelinuxEXP,
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social avatar

@markusmunch @stallmer Not the same kind of miniatures, but equally as gratifying!

thelinuxEXP,
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social avatar

@kopio @stallmer Yeah, I used to be very annoyed when I lost to one of my friends who always brings ultra competitive lists, and also plays really well, but nowadays I don’t care as much.

I won’t do secondary objectives that I don’t like or wouldn’t fit the narrative I want to build, and if it means I lose, I’m ok with it!

TIme for this week's and News video!

Since I'm currently being destroyed in my game of Warhammer 40K , you'll have to watch it to know what's inside!

@deedend No it still has every video :)

@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social avatar

@gnome You’re welcome! It’s never good to point fingers. I have my biases, but I try to limit them to the opinion portions of the video 😅

thelinuxEXP,
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social avatar

@deedend Not sure either!

@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social avatar

I tried to imagine what an enshittified distro would look like, and made a video about it, because it’s fun:

@waimus Haha no it doesn’t exist, fortunately 😂
