If you want real power, you gotta go with corded.

Yeah, you don't get to just say, "Oopsie daisy," when you murder someone in cold blood. Fuck right off.

Sure, but "works with nVidia" isn't the same as "works with everything," since there's a lot of other hardware to consider, though I'd imagine the latter case would be mostly easy for an end user to work around.

That's all I'm really pointing out with that part, and if I'm wrong, then it's only good news for the rest of us.

But the benefit of SteamOS is going to be marginal at best since lots of distros are already highly capable for gaming. Waiting isn't going to bring with it some magical improvements that makes it the default choice over CachyOS, Bazzite, PikaOS, etc.

I suspect you'll be disappointed or frustrated by SteamOS, since Valve isn't really all-in on maintaining a universal distro like other projects (and that's okay); more likely, it will always be Valve-hardware-first that just happens to work on some other hardware configurations.

IMO, you're better off jumping into whatever distro interests you rather than expecting SteamOS to fit your use case. My personal choice was CachyOS for daily use and gaming, and it's been great, but PikaOS would be one I'd consider for another build. I also run Bazzite on an older laptop for some light gaming and HTPC stuff, and that's been rock solid.

It just had an update a week or two ago.

Yep, I installed Aurora on an aging parent's laptop, because I was worried they'd be the target of some well-crafted malware campaign (hence why I went atomic). Plus the parent doesn't have good privacy practice, and I know Microsoft was datamining everything they were doing.

Y'all are probably tired of hearing it, but Linux has come a long way, especially for gaming; spin up a VM and try a few distros out.

The days of global US hegemony are truly over, but that's what happens when you have idiots in charge. The US was long overdue to be taken down a few pegs, though, and while I don't think having any kind of massive global superpower is good for humanity, I'm interested to see what China does with that position.

Strengthening its ties with Cuba is an interesting move, and it just goes to show how the Trump admin doesn't understand how geopolitical chess works and that you can't just bully your way into global power with the barrel of a gun.

Mattermost is a decent business-ware option. You can even self-host it.

My company actually switched from Mattermost to Teams, and I don't really see any functional difference in daily use, except that there's now more intrusive "features."

Cool, so the creator of the meme is mad that liberals are choosing people who are actually doing something rather than those who are saying, "Just be patient, we need more bodies!"

The fascists will either be long gone or will have solidified their power by the time there's "more people." There's no more time left to wait for some romantic revolution.

I think it's more akin to indoctrination. "You, too, can be independently wealthy if you work hard enough. Just look at these very ~~ab~~normal billionaires!"

 

The greatest trip-hop grunge band of 1999 is back again with an awesome single! This will be on their full album True Substance, dropping late summer 2026.

Video shot exclusively on Hi-8 camcorders. Mad Routine is the combined phenomenal talents of Veela and MyCityGlory.

"So how will you get caught? Sleepwalkin'?"

Some of you may know Veela, but did you know that she's in a band now with the very talented My City Glory? It's true!

This is their newest EP, dropped fresh at 12am today. If you like hip hop, R&B, rap, grunge, melodic vocals, or alt-rock, you owe it to yourself to check this band out!

I recently wiped Windows in favor of CachyOS, and it's been lovely! However, I have one outstanding issue that I can't seem to figure out.

To start, I have a Gigabyte B550I Aorus Pro AX motherboard. I followed the guide on the Arch Wiki for my particular chipset.

I still can't seem to control my cooling fans.

  • I have lm_sensors installed
  • I installed CoolerControl
  • I used modprobe it87 force_id=0x8628
  • I tried adding the .conf files to /etc/modprobe.d/ and /etc/modules-load.d/
  • When the steps above didn't work, I installed the it87-dkms-git package

No matter what I've tried, the only time the fan sensors get detected is when I also specify acpi_enforce_resources=lax in GRUB. From what I barely understand, that's not an option you want to leave on permanently, but perhaps y'all know better or have other ideas.

If it helps:

  • Motherboard: Gigabyte B550I Aorus Pro AX
  • Latest CachyOS kernel
  • Boot: GRUB

Edit: I have a semi-solution.

sudo modprobe it87 force_id=0x8688 ignore_resource_conflict=1

...allows the module to load without completely changing the acpi policy. I still don't know how to make it cleanly permanent or automated, but this is significant progress.

Also note that it should have been 0x8688 in my case, as revealed by sensors-detect.

Edit 2: Added

/etc/modules-load.d/it87.conf
it87

And

/etc/modprobe.d/it87.conf
options it87 force_id=0x8688 ignore_resource_conflict=1

And everything loads automatically! Thanks everyone!

 

Rubio is on a tear right now. Fuck this fascist piece of shit.

Thanks for wasting our taxpayer money on this political theatre, you prick. There's real crises happening right now, and you're over here going, "Buh duh statues make me horny!" JFC.

If you have heard of Veela, this song is from a new band she co-founded with My City Glory. They've been at it for a little while, and this is their latest single (not even out on streaming as of this writing). You can listen to it for free on their site, or give it purchase if you really like it!

They're incredibly talented and versatile, so if this isn't your cup of tea, check out some of their other songs.

Tuta is having a birthday sale, putting their highest Legend tier at the same price as their second-highest Revolutionary tier, and I'm wondering two things:

  • Is this a good deal for 36€ per year?
  • Is this a deal that comes around every year, or is this a rare sale?

I use addy.io to manage aliases, so the extra addresses are whatever. The custom domains might be nice, since I could potentially(?) use that with Addy. I've been pretty judicious with my free 1GB of space, but having 500GB would be more than comfortable (besides being overkill).

I'm not really interested in getting into self-hosting right now, but I might in the future, so I'm also curious how y'all who self-host email feel about a deal like this. Comparable to the cost of self-hosting? Similar features?

Thanks!
