Huh, I never noticed either! Cool little detail though.

Does Yunohost use containers like CasaOS? I’ve been using CasaOS for miscellaneous home stuff, but I can’t explain or justify it, I just don’t like containers.

Anyone know what kind location accuracy Bluetooth 5 currently has?

gashead76 ,
@gashead76@lemmy.world avatar

Thanks for digging those up! I figured it was somewhere around that range. I’ve had it be fairly accurate within a couple feet, but I’ve also had Bluetooth proximity show much further.

Perhaps lower the contrast a bit? Use some gray and charcoal color? Presently it looks like what I see when I have migraine aura… and I don’t intend that to be mean or anything!

I agree with you, people end up going the perceived “easy route” because of the amount of explaining and low level protocol exposure that they receive from someone who is trying to sell them on joining an ActivityPub network. And that’s just the people who are trying to encourage them to join, then there’s the people that straight up think “normal social media” people don’t belong on the fediverse because of one biased reason or another…

I was just wondering if that still existed a few days ago. Glad to know it does. I like knowing the impossible is attainable.

I’m actually really looking forward to this movie. I’m all for trying new things within the Star Trek universe!

I feel similar. Way back when they announced a series based around Section 31 I had a whole different notion about what that would be. The fact that they made it at all and the cast and crew all seem so genuinely excited has me hopeful.

For this particular game the PC version will support PCVR via Steam (and probably other ways as well).

gashead76 ,
@gashead76@lemmy.world avatar

It definitely does obscure the fact that the PC version includes VR itself. I’ll buy it for Quest and PC myself simply to support the studio and hopefully help make sure they produce games for a few more decades!

When they first announced the remake they didn’t mention anything about native Quest support, but they did talk about PCVR initially (which was the day I finally invested in VR hardware). I’m honestly surprised they got it running on the Quest, though it does look like they had to reduce detail by quite a lot to get to perform decently on the Quest.

Exactly what I was expecting! Definitely read it wrong.

Thanks for doing these, I always enjoy reading them!

I would love it if local conventions started popping up everywhere again. I haven’t been to one since 1991.

That is just awesome! I’d love to see some of the lighting effects.

“USB 4 2.0”… someone should really do something about the incredibly goofy naming scheme.

gashead76 ,
@gashead76@lemmy.world avatar

I know, it is a never ending source of minor comedy that “Universal” is right there in the name.

gashead76 ,
@gashead76@lemmy.world avatar

It is absolutely infuriating. It blows my mind that you can have a USB 3.2 Gen2 cable that does everything you need it to, except for the fact that it doesn’t support Power Delivery and a lot of the time you won’t even know, so if you’re sending high wattage through it there’s a real possibility you’re gonna burn some to kind up.

gashead76 ,
@gashead76@lemmy.world avatar

Oh damn, I didn’t even catch that!

It is more complicated than that. There are multiple different server components that make up Bluesky and its federation. The PDS (Person Data Server) is what they’re mostly talking about in that press release. You can however run all three major server components yourself and setup a completely separate network that would then federate with Bluesky proper. It’s quite different to Mastodon and other ActivityPub services (where you setup a Mastodon, Lemmy, WriteFreely, etc… instance and then federate).

Still, at present it does feel a little pointless.

Whenever the AT protocol of BlueSky is set for others to deploy, won't it have similar problems as ActivityPub instances?

I feel like I may be missing something when it comes to BlueSky, or maybe both I and those trying it out are but in different ways. My understanding is that BlueSky is currently like the Mastodon Social instance is for Mastodon but of the AT Protocol under development, with the long term aim being that once their protocol is...

gashead76 ,
@gashead76@lemmy.world avatar

From what I’ve read of this, it’s basically already done. The developer is just waiting for AT Protocol federation. I’m not sure how to feel about how it works though, it’s got some quirks because of the differences in the protocols.

Oh wow, that’s really cool! I’ll definitely take it for a spin. I’ve been thinking that something like this would be great.

gashead76 ,
@gashead76@lemmy.world avatar

I like your example there a lot, I’m going to use that in the future when I’m trying to express that notion. In the past I’ve never been able to articulate that exact concept. So thanks!

I do really hope we get several more seasons of Prodigy. When I first started watching it I thought for sure it would the Trek I wouldn’t like, but I was very wrong.

@gashead76@lemmy.world avatar

Already own the game and already love the game, but I just wanted to say good on you fine folks for bringing the post here!

gashead76 ,
@gashead76@lemmy.world avatar

That’s exactly what I keep thinking about, to hell with what the controlling forces say, the two options in front of those residents aren’t really options. I can’t wrap my head around what that must be like.

I have the same issue with solarized. I find a totally black background with light gray text to be the best for me. It’s funny, I’ve had migraines my whole life and yet I ended up working with screens and screens are an integral part of my hobbies.

I miss the days of lickable Mac OS X as well. Been meaning to set up a virtual machine to run Tiger or something.

None of the books are really considered canon, but personally if I like a book well enough I call it canon until proven otherwise. Especially in cases like this one!

I’ve never read it and I can’t wait to experience it with the man himself narrating!

@gashead76@lemmy.world avatar

Since it came out early, does that mean there will be no new episode this coming Thursday, or will the season end earlier than it was going to?
