My father is a sports pilot. As a child I flew very often with him. I puked almost all the time but I still loved hit. Every plane at his club is marked by my vomit.
Only one time I already felt sick when we arrived at the airfield. He still took me up in a sailplane. In order to stay up in a sailplane you have to constantly fly in circles above fields with warm air. Round and round and round. We were up for 4 hours. I didn’t puke once. By the time we were back down again I wasn’t sick anymore.
The only book I loved reading for school was Das Versprechen by Dürrenmatt. At the time I didn’t go to school very often, so that might have helped. Schools have a tendency to kill all excitement one might have for a topic.
The book also has a pretty good movie with Jack Nicholson.
You’re already doing it. Even though your account is on lemmy.world you are posting to a community on lemmy.ml and I am answering from my own server on swg-empire.de.
Your server has its own communities but it also receives all the posts, comments and votes from external communities that are on other servers if someone from your server has subscribed to these external communities.
Mastodon is similar but there you follow people instead of communities. You still can follow Lemmy communities as if they were users to get all their posts and comments but it is clunky. You can post from Mastodon to a Lemmy community by mentioning it in a post with an @ in front. The first line of the post will be used as the title.
Play Portal 1 first. It’s not very long but still great.
Minecraft is always great. Or the free Luanti.
No idea how powerful that card is but everything up to Quake 3 should work. Maybe more. Unreal Tournament 99 and 2004 are free now and can be found on https://oldunreal.com/.
You don’t need Steam but it makes buying and installing games very easy. But you can also buy games on https://gog.com/ and install them with Heroic. It’s more or less as easy as with Steam.
Or you can just look through your distributions software repository. It should have plenty of free games.
In the end it really depends on what you’re looking for. “Games” is a vast field.
I imagine her being annoyed as a baby but being taken from the computer by her parents. Thus a lifelong resentment of computers and Linux had formed until she finally was able to overcome it and fix the bug.
Thank you, the part about the database is important.
Of course that depends on the apps in question and if you are even able to install additional apps in a managed environment.
But not all apps are so limited. The cookbook app for instance saves all recipes as markdown files you can easily share with others, download or backup.
Managed Nextcloud is definitely easier than hosting it your own. I bet they also have the hardware to guarantee good performance. With any luck Hetzner also offers AI features like face recognition and automated tagging.
But don’t go in there expecting a fully fledged Google Photos alternative. Even when Memories is much better than Nextcloud’s own Photos, it lacks many essential features like easy filtering of your collection. You basically have to sort your photos yourself.
Unless Hetzner offer something on top of Nextcloud file sync is done via Webdav, not sftp or rsync. But basically every OS has Webdav clients.
Calendar and Contacts are also synced via DAV. CalDAV and CardDAV. Works well for me on Android with DAVx⁵.
I just googled something. Don’t remember what I ended up on. Probably some blog post combined with rspamd’s website. It depends on your mailserver anyways.
It’s hard to find anything VLC doesn’t support. Just try it. It’s great on any device.
rspamd is used nowadays. Add sieve filtering to automatically move mails with a 7.0 or higher to a spam-folder. Manually move mails there that haven’t been detected and move mails out of the spam folder that have been falsely detected (personally don’t have any false positives with rspamd).
Then set up bayes learning with rspamd, either when mails are moved between folders or every few hours.
Jellyfin on the PC.
Or using Windows file sharing and running VLC on the TV and tablet.
It’s even in the FAQs of piracy forums. It’s awesome how far Linux gaming has come!
I use Nextcloud. Of course that only makes sense when you use the other Nextcloud stuff as well.
That’s what the scaled sort is supposed to solve. It pushes up posts that are popular relative to other posts in their communities. So even if they regularly get 0 upvotes they should still show up.
I use the scaled sort on subscribed together with hiding read posts and marking posts as read when I scroll by. That way I usually see the posts made in smaller communities fairly regularly.
This depends on the server you sign up on. lemmy.world is just one of many. No idea which one doesn’t require an email address. Since you’re already on lemmy.world I’d stay there for a while to get a feel for the other servers out there.
Maybe we’ll get GTA 6 before GTA 6.
