Damn i still say that like that sometimes, and i totally forgot where it came from

As someone without an electric car, i always assumed it was for something to do while charging.

Yes, it is all Unix (feddit.nl)

Linux is unix-like, and not from the same family really. ChromeOS is based on linux, so similarly unix-like. Mac is Darwin, which is actually unix. Also all BSDs are unix

@dadarobot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Yeah, reading these comments, it looks like they are not legally able to call it unix, despite having direct lineage. Linux however is a complete re-write, making it more obviously not proper unix by most definitions.

Im using freebsd on my nas because it has better zfs support than linux does. Or at least was the case as of a couple years ago.

Originally i just threw a few extra drives into my old Arch machine, but i noticed my package upgrades were being held back because zfs on linux (or whatever they called it) was dependant on older kernels or something. I cant remember the exact details.

Didnt watch this specific video, but the solution seems simple to me. Just release the server software. Bonus points to open source it.

dadarobot ,
@dadarobot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Don’t misunderstand me, I absolutely think there should be regulation over this. I’m saying ultimately if a company wants to discontinue a service they should be forced by law to release the server software. That way the player base can still use the product they paid money for.

dadarobot ,
@dadarobot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Yes, but hiring some devs to modify the code to be run on a home server could be seen as an investment towards saving the cost of running the servers themselves.

If a company is going broke and cant afford to port the code to a home market, they could simply open source it, and let the fans do the work.

And as i mentioned to the other guy, i think this should be the law.

Does anyone know if i need to be concerned about updating my yuzu flatpak? Apparently nintendo is taking control of all assets, and im not sure if they’ll brick the flatpak or not.

What i usually do is set up a wifi hotspot from my phone, and connect the pi that way

dadarobot ,
@dadarobot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

No, your laptop also connects to the hotspot. If you have available wifi at your location, you can then setup the pi to use that wifi and disconnect the phone hotspot, and just use the local wifi on all devices.

Ive just found this to be the simplest setup. I briefly had serial over bluetooth set up, and it was an easier way to change the pi’s wifi, but it broke pretty quickly for me not sure why.

Probably the most elegant solution is ethernet over usb, but thats a bit of a pain to set up.

For me a hotspot has been the least headache

Waydroid runs decently on the pinephone. On a phone with better specs, it might be downright usable for proprietary apps.

Potentially a proton-style layer could really ease transition, like on the steamdeck

20% minimum unless the service is horrible. It’s not your fault the servers are paid BELOW minimum wage because the employer expects you to tip. But it nonetheless is the expectation and is the right thing to do. If you can’t afford to tip correctly you can’t afford to eat out.

To be clear, i think we should get rid of tipping economy, but while it is the norm, you absolutely have to tip.

Something ive noticed from using wireguard from my phone is my traffic across the board slows down significantly while connected because everything is routed back home.

With tailscale can the user be connected, and only have a specific ip/domain routed through it? I also dont have access to the dvr’s internal system to run tailscale from it.

Anyway thanks for the lead, im reading up now

dadarobot OP ,
@dadarobot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Oh that makes sense because when i originally set it up, i did want all traffic routed through it. I guess i didnt realize it didnt have to be

@dadarobot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Edit: just looked at your link. I think for the time being im going to use tailscale. Its a restaraunt, and they dont have a self-hosted server. Im trying to get around opening ports, so using an existing service. Your link did make me aware of cloudflare tunnels whick looks like it allows 50 users on a free plan vs tailscale’s 3. Although the 3 might work for them, I’ll have to check. Ill probably drop in an ngrok tunnel too so i can maintenence the pi remotely. (They are in a different state) i was mostly looking for advice on how to connect a port on one machine to another over a lan, and socat looks perfect

Actually, i found socat which seems to work just fine so far, and appears to be a standard linux command.

socat TCP4-LISTEN:8096 TCP4:192.168.86.2:8096

I think bbs is considered pre-internet. Or maybe alternate and separate to the internet since you would dial directly to them. To my understanding internet didnt really have public access until the late 80’s/early 90s.

Im 38 so i wasnt really there, just my understanding

Did American History X foreshadow the resurgence of white nationalism in the US? (www.bbc.com)

A brilliant film emerged from these skirmishes – but its core insight still takes work to unpack. For generations, a persistent myth that black families were irreparably broken by sloth and hedonism had been perpetuated by US culture. Congress’s landmark 1965 Moynihan Report, for example, blamed persistent racial inequality...

Jellyfin on Roku TV?

I’m interested in using Jellyfin. I learned that you can install the Jellyfin “channel” on any Roku device to stream to it. I have a TCL Roku TV and when I search for Jellyfin nothing appears. Also when I follow the link from Jellyfin’s website to Roku’s website it redirects to the main channel page and when I search...

Jellyfin also has a web interface. SERVERIP:8096

Obviously, put your ip in there.

Honestly, id just reinstall windows, check the router for port forwarding, change the admin password on the router, and call it a day.

Then, keep an eye on it and see if the situation improves

Finally had enough of Windows. I'm packing up. I'm nervous!

Edit2: Writing this from Pop_Os! I had experience with Mint for my Self hosting rig and wanted to see other pastures. Decided to rearrange my three drives, two of them are still Windows, another I emptied and dedicated to Pop OS. That way I still have easy fallback to Windows if I need to do something fast and then I’ll know...

Pick something basic like PopOs or Mint or whatever to start with. If youre trying to avoid distrohopping, install a virtual machine and test out distros with.

Avoiding any kind of distrohopping is kinda silly in the long term. You will want to find the distro that suits your needs best. By using a virtual machine, you can basically hop on the side, and keep a working system around til you find your goldilocks distro.

Ive been using linux for over 20 years. Ive daily driven several different distros for years at a time. If you stick with linux, you will most likely do the same.

They could easily have used lard or tallow…

dadarobot ,
@dadarobot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Your point about the frying not being “deep” is valid, but your insistence that it has to be vegetable oil is just incorrect.

Since the 1960s, most french fries in the US have been produced from frozen Russet potatoes which have been blanched or at least air-dried industrially.[12][11][13][14] The usual fat for making french fries is vegetable oil. In the past, beef suet was recommended as superior,[7] with vegetable shortening as an alternative. McDonald’s used a mixture of 93% beef tallow and 7% cottonseed oil until 1990, when they changed to vegetable oil with beef flavouring.[15][16] Horse fat was standard in northern France and Belgium until recently,[17] and is recommended by some chefs.[18]

I gotta say, i find the youtube videos in youtube music a feature not a bug. Not so much for the videos themselves, but i listen to a lot of obscure music, some of which is not licensed to be on traditional streaming, yet often has videos available on youtube. My playlists can be a combination of properly licensed music, and jank uploads

Why Americans aren't Americans in Spanish 🇺🇸 (www.youtube.com)

Americans are often surprised to learn than they aren't "Americans" in Spanish, but something else entirely. Spanish speakers are equally surprised to learn that insisting that Mexicans, Chileans, and Venezuelans are "Americans" in English is wrong. This video is an attempt to remedy this gulf in communication between countries...

I have one running manjaro gnome. Works great for me, but sometimes i have trouble with the onscreen keyboard showing up over the browser (both firefox and chrome). Other than that, it works just fine.

dadarobot ,
@dadarobot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

I believe it’s just the built-in wayland keyboard. It works just fine, but looks a little ugly for my tastes. If an app doesnt automatically bring up the keyboard, just swipe up from the bottom of the screen and itll come up

Other than that, its a pretty standard touchscreen keyboard. Youre not gonna be doing any “homerow typing” but its easy enough to use, especially in portrait mode. Landscape is a bit long for my thumbs.

But wouldn’t a certain amount have the same ig right at the median, meaning less than half would actually be above (and also below)?

I use manjaro, if you like the up-to-dateness of arch, with the polish and ease of setup of popos, it may be a great candidate for you.
