Just installed it at the start of the month on an older PC for a console-like experience in my living room. Only 2 issues really have me disappointed (and I’m not sure there’s much Bazzite can do about them)

  1. No HDMI 2.1 support from my AMD card (like seriously, wtf? Had I known that I probably would have dropped a 9060 XT in instead of a 9070XT)

  2. No real wake in controller support for my FlyDigi or Xbox Series controllers. I’ve messed around in udev and found no solutions.

If they can figure those things out, I’d be much more impressed with the experience…. For now it just feels like another FOSS compromise to the product you actually want (PS5 Pro)

It’s kind of meaningless when it’s sandwiched between 2 absolute abominations.

That’s great news! …but I’m never moving back. Been in San Diego for a decade now and love it here

Lived in LA (or surrounding area) for a decade. One of the reasons I wanted to get out was because of how shit it is to get to/from literally anywhere in the city.

This would definitely help things, but no single train line is going to fix the problem. LA is way too huge and sprawling, and requires a large network of rail to become a viable alternative to cars. And there’s way too many NIMBYs with that Hollywood money in key areas of town to make that happen.

N64 game prices were $60-75 back when the console came out in 1996… so no, they’ve been static for almost 3 decades.

Got that today. Changed to old.Reddit.com and no issues. Almost like new Reddit sucks

The article mentioned solar tech being first patented in the US, and even as recently as the 70s the government injected cash to push it forward.

So maybe not “Clean energy leader” per se, but certainly tech leader in the clean energy space.

We (USA) gave up on being clean energy leaders decades ago and now China has emerged in our place.

Now, between meddling in our universities, research granting system, and an insane HHS Secretary, we’re headed on the same path in a larger number of other science and technical fields, especially Medicine.

Kind of a false equivalency there. The casual link between meat consumption and those diseases is much less clear than cigarettes and cancer. In fact, overconsumption of sugars is much more directly linked to type 2 diabetes than meat consumption, for example.

Well, this is certainly nightmare fuel

Yeah my Father in Law basically has this… but significantly nicer (4bed, 4bath, full kitchen, running spring water, off-grid solar+batteries), up a mountain, surrounded by pine trees, with StarLink internet.

It’s amazing when we can go visit for a week or 2

 

Tuesday Night Special:

Today’s Memorial Day special was USDA Prime Ribeye from Costco, homemade potato salad, and sautéed cauliflower.

Steak was cooked on a Weber grill at 225 till internal temp of 105, then seared in blazing coals for one minute per side. Came out a perfect medium rare!

So lets say my home instance is Instance A, but I'm browsing Community 1 in Instance B. Now in that community I see a comment that I want to reply to with a link to a comment I saw in Instance C, community 2, just because I think it's the most relevant to the discussion.

If I use the URL from the 2 chains "link" icon, that will send users to https://instance.a/comment/####### on my home instance. So that will send anyone from another instance who follows my link, to my instance and log them out of their account....

If I use the URL from the rainbow network "link" icon, it will send the user to https://instance.c/comment/#######, thus logging them out of their account on their instance (unless instance c happens to be their home).

But what about users coming across the conversation from Instance B? Or Instance D or F, or H? Is there a way to format the URL for that link such that anyone can follow it without moving to another instance, and/or logging out of their home instance?

This feels to me like it would be an important core feature of a platform like this.... otherwise when sharing ideas, usability becomes... challenging.
