TrueNAS shares help.
I’m pretty new to self hosting, so apoligies in advance if what i wanna do sounds stupid. I’ve had an old lenovo desktop set up with truenas for about a month now, and I was wondering if it was possible to have an smb share and a filebrowser instance use the same directory. I tried to set it up like this when deploying...

…a late 2000s futuristic FPS game (with dubious status as an FPS) introducing never-before-seen movement mechanics that are used to their fullest potential featuring an athletic but non-sexualized female protagonist, had a radio-friendly song titled “Still Alive” playing over the end credits, i’d have two nickels. which...
How does lemmy feel about instances censoring external community posts?
First off before we get into this I want to make clear that I’m not just throwing shade at the specific instance involved, and I’d also like to avoid focusing on the specific content of thread. I think this is a larger issue that warrants an open discussion, this could have happened with any other instance on a wide variety...
Ghost of Tsushima's DLC Iki Island is the best part of the game
Hello all! I have played Ghost of Tsushima last year, and while I thought the visuals were stunning and the gameplay and atmosphere were tremendous, the game felt a bit too long and repetitive for me. The story was nice, but due to the slow pace it didn’t have the emotional impact it might have gotten if the game was a bit...

Most IOT devices no longer connect to my 2.4ghz guest network. What's going on? (SOLVED)
FINAL UPDATE W/ SOLUTION: It hadn’t dawned on me that my wifi extender could have been creating issues, until I realized that it was only pushing my guest SSID to devices at the far end of my home and outside. I literally unplugged it and all my IOT devices connected and have stayed connected! So, not a router issue, but the...
Disco Elysium - Switch or Xbox/PS5
As in the title - its on sale on all consoles at the moment for a very good price and I was wondering what console should I get it on. I like the idea of playing it on the go and I thought as it looks like it should run no difference what console im playing it. But I heard some mixed reviews regarding the performance on Switch.
Whatever happened to DNA-based storage research?
It seems like 6 or 7 years ago there was research into new forms of storage, using crystals or DNA that promised ultra high density storage. I know the read/write speed was not very fast, but I thought by now there would be more progress in the area. Apparently in 2021 there was a team that got a 16GB file stored in DNA. In the...
Offline Music Player App With Configurable Swipe Actions?
I’ve been trying to find an offline music payer with a UI that I don’t hate.

Several new communities to talk about which Lemmy instances are working or not. You can also discuss issues with federation as well as issues with Kbin or other parts of the fediverse. I’ve created communities on multiple instances to provide redundancy in case any one of these has to be discussed....
I'm disappointed with Third Wave Water
Not with their end product - the powder itself is excellent. But every little packet is plastic, and doesn’t have to be. The world has such a serious problem with plastics, and for a lot of products it’s kind of necessary, but this is not one of them....

I'm looking for a command that is similar to cpupower, but for gpu (or even both -- gpupower?systempower?)
Title. Something that is minimal, has a daemon and a very KISS config file. Bonus points if it also has a “generic” setup (works for all pcs but its not optimal? So I could run this on my sbc.)...
