overview for kugmo

Fucking Gearbox tied gameplay elements to the game's framerate when it ran fine uncapped before this update, and at higher frame rates you have a higher chance to have desyncs in multiplayer. I wish this company would go out of business already.

I'd hope 100% of customers don't want micro transactions.

Is it possible to rip movie straight from cinema? by kugmo in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

[-] kugmo@sh.itjust.works 72 points 1 month ago

The movie at a cinema isn't a regular mp4 file, it's a massive 100-300gb proprietary file that needs a valid license key to even be played back during a specific time period. Good luck decrypting the file or getting the company that issues the keys to the cinemas to give you a key because you're not getting it to play early. Iirc somehow the Korean rip of the Sonic the Hedgehog movie was leaked early and something similar happened with the My Little Pony movie, but those fan bases are incredibly autistic and will find a way.

Looks like the 'uglification' of female characters is real.

Steam DLC unlocker SmokeAPI is now being blocked by Valve and could result in a VAC ban or locked account. (sh.itjust.works)

Looks like CreamAPI is not affected. Looks like a Paradox games fan's worst nightmare.

Link to change in latest Steam client update.

Valve's custom kernel patches for SteamOS' kernel; how many are up-streamed into the mainline kernel already? (sh.itjust.works)

submitted 6 months ago by kugmo@sh.itjust.works to c/steamdeck@sopuli.xyz

11 comments fedilink

Title says all, is it possible to use a mainline kernel on a non-SteamOS install or do you have to use Valve's kernel they ship with SteamOS 3.x? Is it possible to find all the the patches they use and compile a kernel yourself?

Self hosted syncthing relay with keepass, how secure is it? (sh.itjust.works)

submitted 6 months ago by kugmo@sh.itjust.works to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

9 comments fedilink

I already have my keepassxc and syncthing setup on my phone and computers and it's great, I'd like to go a step further and have my password database sync when I'm not on my home network. From my understanding I can use relays set up by other users and they are encrypted, but if I do not trust syncing personal (encrypted) data to someone else's server how easy is it to set up a relay that only I use? I won't be using Bitwarden because in theory if I can pull this off I can also use syncthing to sync other files as well. Is setting up a personal relay a lot of work or a potential security risk for my home network?

Is there a downside to Flatpak? by kugmo in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[-] kugmo@sh.itjust.works 28 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

overly verbose way to launch them in terminal
can sometimess not even respect your gtk/qt theming
sandboxing/permission system can lead to you trying to figure out which directory you need to give access to when you want to save file if it wasn't preconfigured
uses its own libraries and not system libraries, want to play the hit new AAA game with steam flatpak? get fucked it requires a mesa commit that was merged 8 hours a go and you're stuck on 23.0.4 and can't use the git release.

Flatpak probably has it's specific uses like trying to use one piece of proprietary software that you don't trust and don't want to give it too much access to your system, or most GUI software clients having an easy way to install Discord on your Steam Deck (no terminal usage, Linux is easy yay), but native packages 99% of the time work better.

First MCC update of the year starting off with Halo 2 classics hit registration being worked on, maybe it'll be like 'exactly like it was when it released'. Halo 3 mods need to be rebuilt for this update as well.

Now we just need Apple M* hardware that can be bought like a regular laptop or PC parts, but that's never happening sadly.

Ross Scott talking about The Crew's future server shutdown making the game unplayable for people who bought it or received it for free. He wants to see if a lawsuit is possible because of how fast technology is outpacing the law and needs help with who to contact.

If successful, Intel's next generation Battlemage graphics cards will benefit all gamers by kugmo in c/games@sh.itjust.works

[-] kugmo@sh.itjust.works 56 points 9 months ago

How do you not know that Intel has they same type of open source graphics driver like AMD? Their kernel module, OpenGL and Vulkan libraries are all free software, only requiring small firmware blobs. That's why Intel 'just werks' on Linux without having to download a 500mb kernel module or have a separate .iso available to download specific to the hardware.
