That’s not an equivalency. From written paper to typewriters and then to computers, writing has remained a product of the author. A typewriter repair shop would transition from mechanical to electronic typewriters and potentially then to computer repair. This is because it supports an evolving technology.

An author cannot transition to becoming a machine, because they cannot author what they don’t write, but a publisher can continue to publish anything that would make them money. So when human experience is boiled down to nothing more than the probabalistic order of the words written by authors who gave no consent to have their work absorbed and mutilated by an LLM, the only winner is a publishing house seeking cheaper labour than the human.

That one sounds squarely on Nvidia. Any driver that uses undocumented workarounds to gain kernel level access or utilizes an access loophool for system hooks is a bad driver. I’d assume Debian, or likely more accurately the Linux kernel itself was updated following some matter of CVE that Nvidia was quietly abusing.

Frustrating, but a good example of why those kinds of proprietary drivers are such a nightmare. You really just don’t know what techniques they’re using.

Ah, I see where I got confused. Yeah, CGNAT isn’t very common around here. I don’t think I’ve ever run into an ISP that uses it. I can see how that complicates things.

You really don’t though. I use wireguard myself under the same scenario without issue. You just need to use some form of dynamic DNS to mitigate the potentially changing IP. Even if you’re using Tailscale you’ll still need to have something running a service all the time anyways, so may as well skip the proxy.

Oh yeah, at the time there was no support for my current registrar. It was a fun enough project to put my own script together anyways.

This is probably not what you’re looking for, but I found registering a cheap domain name and using a dynamic DNS script that checks every hour or so against your public IP to be a good way to mitigate issues. It also depends on your ISP. Mine typically only renews upon a reboot of the modem or a new PPPoE authentication.

Others have also suggested Tailscale, and I think that’s also a worthwhile option. It’s a pretty easy thing to set and forget, working like any oher VPN client. This is the least complex option to navigate, and if Plex was the only service you were forwarding then it’s likely the best option.

I agree. For regular user facing tasks, the terminal should be a last resort. I say this as someone who will happily defer to the terminal if I need more advanced control. But when basic configuration is subject to just CLI, it’s not as accessible as it could or should be

Important note is the demo was never available for download through steam, only via the website of the listed developer. Valve/Steam have only removed the store page listing.

TechCrunch’s writer here just appears to be lazy as hell. Here’s a better article: https://www.thegamer.com/steam-gets-second-game-in-as-many-months-that-adds-malware-to-your-pc/

Honestly the Reddit thread is the best of the bunch though if you want more details

Honestly the idea of a Gamepass Centric handheld is one I’m surprised they didn’t go for already. If they push it with just the Xbox styled front end, it’ll probably be more appealing than the xbox itself

I use Wayland exclusively, but unfortunately I don’t think I have an answer for you since I’m not entirely familiar with this idea. Is your concern just for the configuration of a universal set of hotkeys configured within the compositor rather than a desktop environment?

I wasn’t aware that x11 facilitated this. I’d have figured keyboard mappings are abstracted from the compositor and left to the DE to handle, aside from core binds that allow dropping back to tty

The GPU notwithstanding, there’s actually a pile of scientific usecases that this kind of power and portability would be very useful for. The dual network ports also provide a nice means of connecting to lab equipment that primarily communicates over ethernet, while still maintaining an easy way to have a reliable connection to a network.

It’s almost definitely not targeted at this use-case, but I could certainly see it being looked at for it.

Can confirm. Currently running everything on there through Proton unless there’s some outstanding issue

Recommendation: use Heroic instead for Hoyo titles. It’ll launch with Proton/Gamescope and it’s far more reliable.

I am a Linux user. Bizarre assumption to make given my excitement over a Wayland specific Discord feature. But I don’t have any actual qualms with how Discord implements its own services. Matrix just doesn’t fit the bill for me. If you enjoy it, and it suits your needs then all the power to you. It just isn’t what works for me.

Not if I want calling, video chat, screen sharing and role based chat rooms all in the same place. I’ve explored this, but it just isn’t feature complete enough at the moment. I’d definitely describe myself as a Discord power user and Matrix just doesn’t manage it.

Oh my fuck, finally. Good lord Discord, only took you eons to get that working with Wayland after you broke it.

I get that there’s other things like Discord out there, but nothing works like Discord.

Frankly, I don’t have a problem with anyone who uses linux, I do too. I just get tired of the same stupid circlejerks that paint it as some kind of perfect alternative to existing mainstays. I like it, you like it, Lemmy is a deeply nerdy subsect of diehard FOSS ideologies and the power of the personal computer. But dear god is it kind of insufferable at times when it’s preaching to converts, and I imagine even less pleasant for those who just don’t have a desire to care.
