Some of the UI mods are really good. Gives what can be a bit of a clunky experience some QOL features and look.

For the optical media side of things, the name was coined by Phillips while they were consorting with Sony to develop the standard and named it the “Compact Disc” to compliment their already existing “Compact Cassette” product. They developed an official logo for the format which spelled it “disc.” That’s been with us ever since.
Didn’t LaserDisc predate Compact Discs?
Yeah, Lemmy doesn’t block you from accessing it via a VPN, for one.
Seems like a solvable problem though. We have a list of federated servers inately built into activitypub, right? Just need to tag results from those servers as being linked to a “lemmy” keyword search.
I’m sure I’m oversimplifying it, but all the pieces are there, just need search engines to be smart about how they index. Since there are a couple of federation based models that would be good to index, not just lemmy, it would probably behoove them to figure it out.
As I understand it, Lemmy, being FOSS, is pretty immune to this since there are no big tech shareholders to appease. Lemmy is susceptible to EEE (embrace, extend, extinguish) via something like Threads, however.
I’d recommend Fedora KDE. Keep it simple. Good community, support, stable.
There are plenty of private companies that are shitty too. It definitely helps being private (and maybe is a requirement?), but you also have to have the right owners for private companies to be good.
Every sign, every rule, every law has a story as to why it is necessary.
I well over legal age to drink before he was even born and I’m a millennial. Man, when did we get old???
Also, he’s awesome. Really excited to see him in the final. What a birthday present that would be, eh?
I regularly use mine as a couch co-op party system, though usually we are playing Steam games, not emulated games. I have played emulated WiiU, Wii, PS2, GameCube games, however, and have found that multi-controller support can be a pain with the emulators needed to play.
Hardware wise, it’s rock solid for Bluetooth controllers up to four, but no more. If you need more than four controllers, you will want to wire them in with a USB hub. We’ve played plenty of six-person Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles brawler using four Xbox controllers, one person with a wired steam controller, and one person holding the steam deck as the last controller.
If you go for older retro games, N64 or earlier, it gets a lot easier as retroarch is easy to play around with in game mode, where if you need to get into dolphin or something you have to go into desktop mode to make tweaks and it’s just a pain, imo. This is why we typically play older stuff or steam stuff. Steam stuff is easy because it just works.
It’s also super portable and I can bring the whole setup in a backpack and just requires a USB C laptop charger, my usb c dock and a HDMI cord.
Linux supports network accounts of all kinds.
They even have a guide for that! https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/linux/install
Especially those who own horses (because they have money)
Looks a lot like Immersed’s Visor glasses. Not sure which one is more likely to actually be released and actually meet expectations.
This is why I didn’t switch until this year. Valve really did a great thing by driving this adoption and I feel like with Proton in the state it’s in, there’s really not much you’re giving up by going to Linux these days.
The list of actual pain points is ever shrinking now. I can’t imagine switching back in 95. You had to put up with so much inequity for a lot of that time.
Yep. It’s gotta be hard to distinguish, because there are legitimately helpful and confidently correct people on reddit posts too. There’s value there, but they have to figure it out how to distinguish between good and shit takes.
This has been true for code you pull from posts on stackoverflow since forever. There are some good ideas, but they a. Aren’t exactly what you are trying to solve and b. Some of the ideas are incomplete or just bad and it is up to you to sort the wheat from the chaff.
Some of the recently reported ones have been traced back to Reddit shitposts. The hard thing they have to deal with is that the more authoritative you wrote your reddit comments, shitpost or not, the more upvotes you would get (at least that’s what I felt was happening to my writing over time as I used reddit). That dynamic would mean reddit is full of people who sound very very confident in the joke position they post about (and it then is compounded by the many upvotes)
This is linuxmemes after all…
I thought this was Mario in the thumbnail, lol.
Oh interesting…the plot thickens!
