It’s nice of you to add alt text for the image in the description but isn’t there an ActivityPub standard for that? Mastodon has, would be nice if Lemmy had it too.

What's your favorite Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (or Tears of the Kingdom) clone?

I really enjoyed it the first one or two weeks but after I basically finished all the content it was just a grind for primogens and I stopped playing 😕

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I might install it again too, I haven’t played since the second week or so after it released. I currently have my hands full with Satisfactory tho.

Using the iGPU might save power but the resolution doesn’t need to be turned down for that

I use my phone without a case too, phones don’t break that easily. I even dropped it on stone tiles once when I missed my pocket and it only got a few scratches on the side from that.

Amazon, Tesla and Meta among world’s top companies undermining democracy – report (www.theguardian.com)

Some of the world’s largest companies have been accused of undermining democracy across the world by financially backing far-right political movements, funding and exacerbating the climate crisis, and violating trade union rights and human rights in a report published on Monday by the International Trade Union Confederation...

Whaaaaat…? In a time of economic struggles, companies would rather support fascists than risk letting socialism take over? This certainly never happened before, especially not in Germany.

Weird is an understatement. Isn’t it fair to say at this point that he’s probably a child molester? I mean, there were tons of photos with him and epstein, he wanted to release all the secret government documents except for the epstein files, there’s tons of photos with and p diddy and he’s made really weird comments about his daughter. Seems like he’s an official guest of the diddy party.

Only reason I haven’t done that is because of VR. Not sure if VR works through flatpak.

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Works perfectly fine, actually. I have a Valve Index. The only headsets with Linux support are the one I have, the HTC Vive and standalone headsets that work with ALVR (e.g. the Quest ones).

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I’d be down to set that up. I thought VR just flat out doesn’t work with flatpak. Do you know where I can find out how to set it up?

Fisch , (edited )
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

It should just work. You install SteamVR through Steam, start it and it should detect the headset.

Here are a few ideas on what could have gone wrong:

  • Steam is installed as a flatpak
    • Doesn’t work out of the box but I think it’s also in this thread where I asked how to make that work
  • You use GNOME
    • Currently, VR works on KDE in X11 and Wayland but in GNOME only in X11. GNOME 47 (The next update, some people might already have it depending on the distro) adds support for VR in Wayland tho

These are the 2 things I could think of off the the top of my head. If you know what exactly didn’t work I might be able to help you.

Edit: Forgot to add, you also need to install CoreCTRL and use it to set the GPU to high, otherwise performance is gonna be shit.

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

There’s a weird issue with VR on Linux where it doesn’t use the right GPU profile for some reason. A pretty easy workaround for that is to use CoreCTRL to manually set the GPU profile to high.

Germany doesn’t even follow the EU’s minimum wage

But if that were the case, there would be no point in putting them up

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

They’re not being ignored tho, they’re just not allowed to work

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

The thing is, they can’t work in Germany because they don’t get the permit. They’re living here for months or years without being allowed to work while the German citizens complain about how they don’t want to work. It really sucks. The reason I said they’re not being ignored is that I’m pretty sure it’s like that on purpose. Left wing parties are heavily losing votes while right wing parties can use this to support their narrative of lazy immigrants that only come to Germany to abuse our social system.

I’m currently in the market for a new CPU for my PC, so I did my research and I’m not going to buy a Zen 5 CPU either. The reason is simple: The Zen 4 X3D CPUs are faster. Because of that, everyone who wants a new CPU now is getting the Zen 4 X3Ds and everyone who can wait, is waiting for the Zen 5 X3Ds. There’s no point in getting the Zen 5 CPUs that are currently out.

Edit: Actually, after reading the top reply, I’m not sure anymore if the Zen 5s aren’t the better choice after all

Fisch , (edited )
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I just wrote a reply to this post as well, where I wrote that I’m going to upgrade my CPU soon but I’m probably going to get a Zen 4 X3D because they’re faster than a Zen 5 CPU but based on what you wrote, should I change my decision? They’re a good bit cheaper and without that Windows bug (I use Linux anyway) and if I overclock it to the TDP of the Zen 4 X3Ds, might they be faster after all? I saw something about that Windows bug and that they run at a lower TDP out of the box but I didn’t find anything about how they run now and if you can overclock them since there’s more headroom.

Edit: Also to just give a little context, I’m currently running a Ryzen 5 3600 with 16 gigs of DDR4 RAM but since I need to get a new mainboard and RAM anyway, I’m upgrading to 32 gigs of DDR5 RAM

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

The thing is, the Zen 5 CPUs are actually cheaper in Germany than the Zen 4 X3D CPUs but if the performance of Zen 4 X3D is still better, I’m getting that, thanks

Furries are normal human beings tho

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

How are your feelings towards them neutral if you don’t recognize them as normal human beings? Are they lesser human beings because they like to put on silly costumes?

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Ok, maybe I understood something wrong here but specifically saying someone is not a normal human instead of just them having a weird hobby sounded to me like they were trying to say that. But I also hate how much furries are getting hated on for no reason, so I get kinda mad when I see stuff like that.

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Sorry, I got kinda mad because I hate when a group of people gets bullied just because others see them as weird and I thought this was an instance of this happening. You’re right tho.

You do know I’m not a furry tho, right?

DNS should be working, I manually set the DNS server. I don’t really wanna install docker tho, I feel like that could cause other issues. If it only works in docker, that doesn’t really help me anyway, does it?

What gamepad?

So for the past couple of years (… coming on a decade?) I’ve liked the 8bitdo controllers a lot. Build consistency is a bit of a shitshow but you can tell almost instantly if you have one of the bad ones (and it is usually a matter of just loosening one screw unless the PCB itself is cracked). And the Ultimate Pro Whatever...

I use an xbox one controller too and it just worked out of the box on Arch and Fedora

But where would a unified Web client run in the first place? It would have to be installed on a Web server and, from there, access the Web servers of the various different server apps which would still be entirely different and independent installations.

There are already web clients for the fediverse, like Photon for Lemmy

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I know, I was just replying to the part I was quoting. Point is, hosting that web client wouldn’t be an issue.

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

But wasn’t the point of the post that it should, in theory, be possible to use a single account for all the different services by having a client that supports them all, since these different services federate with each other? I don’t know if that’s currently possible without making changes on the backend but if you need different accounts for each service, even if it’s handled on the back-end, that kinda goes against the whole point of the post, no?

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

But also, considering that at one point in Tumblr’s history, you could edit other people’s posts, maybe it is an improvement.

What 😭

Laptop Recommendation Please (Solved)

(Solved) I would like a small laptop to use to log medical data (Weight, Blood Pressure, etc) as I gather it. I need it to be small like 10’. it can be low power because I will probably use it only CLI, no GUI, but I need it to be inexpensive. ARM-based is ok, as long as I can SSH into my desktop machine.

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I think there’s also similar devices to a Raspberry Pi that are cheaper

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

If you buy a used one, you can probably get it a good but cheaper as well

Maybe they don’t have it in Germany anymore but they do in the US. Or they added it since last time I searched for it on Netflix. I don’t have Netflix, so it’s been a while.

You can already charge wirelessly. As for the speakers, Samsung has an OLED TV that vibrates the glass of the screen to produce sound, maybe something similar would be possible on a phone too. Don’t know if something similar would be possible for the mic.

Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t want a phone like that but it would be cool to see if it’s possible.

I also have a fingerprint reader in the screen but I feel like the one on the back of my Redmi 5 Plus was more reliable. It’s not a dealbreaker tho.

That would be nice but I’m gonna try if I can get it working by myself first. Haven’t tried it in quite a while, so maybe it works now for some reason.
