Someone in the other place got me onto sharing 1 randomly selected kindle book a day from my enormous collection. Here are my first three.

The Conductors by Nicole Glover is superb. Magical, mystery, historical & a romance all rolled into a fantastic package.

The Twisted Tree by Rachel Burge is a nordix YA horror & it's fantastic.

A Spirited Tail by Leighann Dobbs is book 2 in the cozy Mystic Notch series & features cats who talk to each other & an oblivious ghost-seeing MC.

Looks like there might be yet another mass-migration wave from Twitter to Mastodon on the way...

Threads isn’t even federated with the greater Fedi so IDK why it’s even being contented here. In the scope of people who actually use the fediverse Mastodon is king.

It is a more likely place for people from Twitter to migrate to.

Those Gaming phones have nonexistent updates, and others are way less secure than Googles and thus not supported by GrapheneOS.

I switched from a Nokia with unofficial LineageOS to GrapheneOS, simply because I need this level of security to feel safe.

@selfhosted I self-host a few services on my box, but I'm looking for a 'dashboard' like solution to use as a portal to click to each of those. I've seen this before, but can't for the life of me remember what it's called... suggestions? :debian: :linux:

magnus ,

I liked the look of Dashy, but it felt somewhat too heavy software for the simple dashboard I needed, and so I wrote the first version of Dashie.

It only uses Javascript and doesn’t need any server components except a webserver. Configuration is done by editing YAML files.

Themes are implemented, and multiple pages which can be used to make more complex navigation of multiple dashboards.

Check it out :)

xyguy ,

I use Heimdall. You can set it up in no time with docker compose and manage it all through the web interface after that.

Its simple but also has some neat integrations with certain apps and will give live stats for certain things. Like pihole gives you live stats on what’s being blocked for instance.

@T156 @z3n0x this is not something I had considered. I’m from the USA, we’ve got the best toilets to sit on for our pee pees and poo poos. Would love some insight into what the equivalent for the squat toilet regions.

@REdOG
I see. Well for me too, Xorg offered all the features I need and is still more well supported than Wayland in some areas, but on my system Wayland has so much better performance. On Xorg I was having mouse lags, on Wayland it's just smooth.

Well you’ve said it yourself, Microsoft are trying to remove that physical limitation to accessing a platform. But Microsoft knows what the market wants, people have been against exclusives for a long time and they want to remove that, I shouldn’t have to spend £300 to play a game when I have equipment already capable of playing a game Infront of me.

So being scared that Xbox is going to disappear is stupid, the consoles might, but Microsoft has been transforming Xbox into a platform for years, starting with the release of windows 7 when they introduced XboxLive for windows alongside halo 2. This has been a long term goal.

If Xbox disappears, so does your digital library and other purchases (some games you can buy once and get on PC as well, but last time I checked, they were few and far in between). I can see that being a concern for people that bought into the Xbox ecosystem for the last few gens.

Decent Decentralisation

https://berjon.com/decent-imaginaries/

Good counter to the focus on protocols.

> a protocol needs to achieve two things: it needs to prevent the accumulation of power imbalances between parties … and it needs to make it easy for users to cooperate in building the the rules they want for how the protocol's operation affects them … the success of decentralisation and … of a democratic digital world rides not only on liberation but also on organising.

@poVoq Agreed. It got me thinking. But feels almost entirely ideological, conflating social media (e.g. Twitter, Reddit) with “the digital world”.

Saying git is a “failed attempt at decentralisation” just because GitHub is popular misses that GitHub is less critical infrastructure than it would be if we only had CVS or Subversion.

I’m encouraged by incremental, practical decentralisation efforts outside of social media. It’s slow, kinda boring but it’s real and happening today.

@maegul @fediverse Thanks @robin for the term "Google Search Fallacy"! I've been seeing variations upon it everywhere ...

Love this article!

(I've toyed with decentralized search before & quickly came to the conclusion that the way we commonly think about it is thoroughly misguided)

I’ve typed furiously steelseries in Linux but still can’t install their software so that I can configure the macro buttons on my keyboard.

But that’s more a steelseries problem than a Linux problem.

mal3oon ,

Noob question, how’s the lag? Playing games like Sekiro for example locally on my desktop, I can’t even use a shitty controller as it comes with high latency. I imagine a solution with a game hosted in a remote server would even suffer more than just a laggy controller.

Basically you could run a gaming cafe with a beefy card and few cheap desktops, once netris matures.

It is, but after spending like 5 hours arguing with different customer service reps about it I decided that it wasn’t worth my time. The company went out of business later anyways.

Cash or original form of payment: Airlines and ticket agents must provide refunds in cash or whatever original payment method the individual used to make the purchase, such as credit card or airline miles. Airlines may not substitute vouchers, travel credits, or other forms of compensation unless the passenger affirmatively chooses to accept alternative compensation.
