It was tracked. Bazzite went up by 2.37% (from nothing). Other went down by 2.40%. They just finally recognized Bazzite as an “actual” Linux distro instead of the “IDK” category.

Replacement? They normally do both face scan and check some sort of ID.

Why not just fix the algorithm so you don’t get spammed with those posts? Limit posts from one community to 1 or 2 per page so it’s at least spread out.

It’s kind of a growing pain issue honestly. As lemmy grows and more people post in more communities it shouldn’t be as much of a problem. I don’t know if self regulation like that will really affect the serial posters though.

In 3 years I haven’t had a single attempted connection that wasn’t me. Once you get to the ephemeral ports nobody is scanning that high.

I’m not saying run no security or something. Just nobody wants to scan all 65k ports. They’re looking for easy targets.

Change the port it runs on to be stupid high and they won’t bother.

Zfs through trunas will let you do raid 1, then jbod more raid 1s as you add more drives. That’s how I’ve gradually gone from 2 12TB, to 14TBs, the. Finally up to 20TBs without any hassle. I’m sure other software raids will do the same.

Depends on what you define as “still works fine”

I have a GTX 580 and it still renders frames without crashing. But my GTX 1080 wasn’t cutting it for what I was doing so I finally had to upgrade.

Why have two computers doing basically the same job when you could just have one?

Have the NAS be the media server and save power and get better performance.

USB 2.0 will do 480Mbps. Most audio streaming services are no more than 320Kbps. USB 2.0 is plenty fast. But USB audio is probably only there for iPods and iPhones, android devices don’t typically work with them. There should also be an aux port. If your phone doesn’t have one you can buy an adapter for less than $10 typically.

The tiredness is probably more due to the truck being more comfortable. A well adjusted seat with good lumbar support (and good posture) will do wonders. I’ve driven 4+ hours without stopping numerous times. As long as my ass is comfy I’m good.

If you do that then you’re probably violating your ISPs TOS and they’d can you anyways, and if they really don’t like you sue for it.

Plex really needs to do a Tailscale style connection to your server. But instead they chose to keep their outdated method of funneling all of their traffic through their servers, and need to charge lots of money in order to pay for it.

Would you rather a difficult and hard to use program?

Easy to use means people will want to adopt it, and that’s what VC companies want. Nobody wants to pay millions of dollars to make a program that nobody wants to use.

Computers became fast enough about 20 years ago for everything short of gaming for the average user.

The internet will also bring even a modern machine to it’s knees. I recently upgraded my computer at home because the poor 8th gen 6 core i5 was crying in pain. Thanks modern web devs.

My question is: Where does this magic cable go?

Into the ISP’s modem on the side of your house. From there to a box along the street, and from there miles away to either another hop, or the datacenter in your local area.

Serial communication is typically much easier to manage than parallel. In parallel all existing tasks need to be completed before the next task can start.

Can their routers see the packets sent by my router, similar to ethernet?

The data is routed, and if you don’t need to send the data to you the router is not going to send it to you. The same thing applies to a switch on your local ethernet. But you only really see your traffic and any broadcasts. You don’t normally see Device A talking to Device B.

I’ve been messing with that tool on and off from the day it was available to developers. I’m well aware of it. It’s ass.

It’s been a few months since I’ve used it so maybe it’s gotten better? But this is Apple and gaming, so I don’t have high hopes.

It’s not at all comparable to proton other than it does the bare minimum to make a game work. All of the tools and tweaks that go into proton are what make it so good. Maybe for CS2 someones put in the work to make it ok. But whether it’s through crossover, wiskey, or whatever else it’s been awful for me. Maybe version 2 is better. But even then I doubt it will be as seamless or good as proton is.

Linux has proton, Mac OS doesn’t.

If they give half a shit about it then supporting the gam through proton is a lot less effort than making an actually good native linux version.

enjoy the experience by making friends and trying new activities.

Big emphasis on this. Nepotism and cronyism are the best ways to get a good job. If you don’t talk to people, and keep in touch with them after college then finding a job is going to be that much harder. GPA doesn’t mean shit if someone in the right position really thinks you’re a good person for the job.

I don’t think I want steamOS

Good because SteamOS doesn’t want you. It’s AMD only at the moment.

Linux Mint is generally fine. But with bleeding edge hardware sometimes it’s better to be on a newer distro that gets driver updates more often. But that largely depends on if you have any issues with the current drivers. I don’t have any 50 series hardware to test to see what sort of issues there are. That said Nvidia has been making some good progress with their drivers after hiring Ben Skeggs.

You just need to go for non small form factor machines. Anything with half height pcie cards is going to have like 1 3.5” bay max.

That said they rarely have much 3.5” space anyways so building is typically better. You can usually find a CPU mobo ram combo for cheap online. Then just pick a case and power supply and you’re good to go.
