PC Gaming@lemmy.world•Valve Developer Improves The Linux Gaming Experience For Limited vRAM Hardware
1·2 days agoI’ve had just the default KDE wallpaper for make months now. I think I’ll have to switch to some of the Artemis shots tho. Might be cliche, but sorry kinda inevitable.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is there a device that allows one to manage "scenes" with multiple monitors and multiple devices?
1·13 days agoThere are KVM switches that allow something closer to that at least, but usually only for 2 hosts (pcs). It stands for “keyboard, video, mouse” and they originated in the server space, but recently became common in the home/office as well.
They main purpose is to switch use of the monitors and any attached input devices between PCs. But there are models that allow mixed/shared use as well. If you’re looking for one that supports 3 monitors and 3 hosts, with some splitting options, that might be harder to find or cost as rather pretty premium (hundreds).

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is there still anyway to bypass Youtube "Sign in to confirm your age" bullshit in 2026?
12·17 days agoYes, and all the download sites and tools don’t use anything else either. They all just wrap yt-dlp.
If it stopped working for you, you might have to read the docs on the specific error you’re getting to see how to get around it. YouTube does try to make it harder, but it’s technologically difficult to fully block. There are workarounds for basically every case as far as I’m aware.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Lutris dev says he's cool with AI generated bugs because his code is already full of bugsEnglish
1·21 days agoLutris is like heroic or steam: it’s essentially the downloader and launcher for games that are then run by proton.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•out of the loop, what's the problem with signal?
132·22 days agoYou can’t have it both ways. It’s hard enough to get people to switch to signal, or least also use it next to other messengers. Now imagine they’d have to connect to multiple servers to talk to multiple people. Possibly everyone connection details. Even if that’s done in the background, you have to somehow get the connection registered once, discovered if you will.
Anything and everything you send through their server is end-to-end encrypted. Some people hate on the phone number being required to create an account, but it’s also the reason it works at all: anyone in your contacts who also has signal you can talk to. Phone numbers are an international standard. If course this also has downsides…
Finally what you’re asking for exists. NextCloud has “talk”. Which is essentially a messenger app, it’s built in. Go use it. I have a NextCloud instance and I don’t use it either. What’s the point of having an app I can only use to talk with people so close to me that they’re in my NextCloud with an account already?

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Password manager woes. How have you solved syncing on Android?English
10·27 days agoIf you’re using a keepass database, Keepass2Android can natively sync with many cloud options including self hosted and generic ones, even without specific “companion” apps. That’s what I use. In my case, it’s backed by my NextCloud, but it used to be Google drive before.
Just also sync the file on your PC, merging changes from different clients is part of the keepass database format and “just works”.
Also VaultWarden works great if your can self host it, but I prefer keepass for a variety of features and integrations.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•CachyOS Is Now the Most Popular Desktop Distro on ProtonDBEnglish
4·27 days agoYeah, they do need to clean up the installer a bit. It’s also not quite turnkey for a Windows dual-boot.
Mind letting us know why or how? When I installed it almost a year ago on my desktop, I did install it as a dual boot option with no issues. Of course this doesn’t mean there aren’t issues I just didn’t run into. I’m also not new to Linux and didn’t pick a fully default install, if that makes a difference. So I could’ve probably fixed it if it did break, but it never gave me any issues.
The only thing that I dislike, and that could probably cause issues, is that for my installation the mount point for the efi/boot partition isn’t specified in fstab using a uuid, but using the device name (which isn’t fixed and can change with hardware changes). That is a very weird (and unnecessary) decision IMHO.

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•Firefox's beta feature "Smart Window" shared browsing and search history to AI models without prompting
20·29 days agoFrom my understanding if you’ve toggled the global “AI kill switch” in the options, this will cover it as well?
That being said, the writing’s been on the wall for a while. Probably LibreWolf for me.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Considering self hosting my own git repositories. What are some options?English
192·1 month agoForgejo was soft forked from Gitea after they went commercial and changed the license (I think). If there aren’t any so far, expect pay walled features eventually.
Forgejo turned into a hard fork after communication issues between the teams. I haven’t looked too deeply into it (as I don’t really care about the fact that it’s a hard fork now). This means while it used to be a drop-in replacement allowing you to go back and forth between the two, it’s now an active conversion, I think.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Is it a good idea to change my system timezone to UTC+0 for additional privacy?
6·1 month agoI’m reasonably sure there’s an option in librewolf that will hide your timezone and just report it as +0, independent from what you actually use is the os.
It has a lot of fingerprint hardening either enabled by default or available as an option.

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•Recommendations for Anti-AI IDEs for coding
1·1 month agoIt’s been a few years (not many, just a few) but last I used eclipse it was clunky, slow and cumbersome for everything you wanted to do. Even relatively simple tasks ended up being tedious. Finding any option or feature usually required Google.
It also loved crashing, a lot.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Do you stick to the same linux distro across your devices?English
3·1 month agoAll normal PCs run CachyOS, includes gaming PCs, laptops and media PCs. All servers run some form of Debian (includes Proxmox) or a dedicated distro for their use (TRUE WAS, technically also Debian based).

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Does anyone have any experience with Sync-in for online files?English
2·1 month agoMaybe look onto OwnCloud. That’s the project NextCloud was forked from many years ago. It’s very much still around and had a very different philosophy, a much more minimalistic approach with focus on stability. That’s actually the reason the people behind NextCloud had to fork it, cause all their additional features (bloat) wasn’t accepted upstream.

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Chat am I cooked?English
17·1 month agoCompressing it with handbrake will probably not look worse. MPEG2 used in DVD is notoriously inefficient by today’s standards. Depending on the codec selected, it’ll be a fraction of the size with no visible differences.
Unless you mean to keep the DVD structure and playability in DVD players (including menus and everything), but I don’t think handbrake can do that.

Doable, not practical. Another major concern is the induced dizziness and general discomfort from such a small circumference. If you stand up straight, your head moves significantly slower than your feet. There are more effects that humans don’t do well with.
In addition keep in mind that this implies significant mechanical complexity the moment you don’t rotate the whole craft, but only a section or ring. If you do rotate all of it, simple tasks like taking a photo become… cumbersome.
Also like others have said, it’s not a permanent residence for anyone, and the main goal of the ISS is the study of low- or micro-gravity.
