I'm surprised they were getting any government funding in the first place

I just deleted windows and installed Bazzite Linux. Everything just works

Delta is cool, wish more people used it

I think I'm able to say now that I'm a seasoned Linux user, possibly even an advanced user. But, I'm still considering replacing windows 11 on my gaming PC with bazzite. Just because it's easy mode, doesn't make it inferior in any way. I'm not suggesting that's what your inferring, just felt like chiming in

Same. Been running it for nearly a year now

I'm straight, and I'd appreciate this

She keeps ghosting me. I've replied to her everytime but then crickets 🙄

Well, no, I'm just pointing out that it's a marketing tactic. Still a great deal if you were planning on purchasing that plan anyway.

Exactly, get you locked in then you pay full price at renewal

I'm interested to know if it'll ever replace windows for gamers. I still have a windows partition solely for gaming. If windows games run natively on react then that would be sweet

I mean, they've got your credit card details so....

 

I'm living life in the virtual terminal, no graphical session, although the framebuffer does render graphics.

First home server advice (self.selfhosted)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by pfr to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
 

Hey everyone, I'm planning on setting up my first home server this year. Going to use an old Dell Optiplex with a couple 4tb SSD's.

I only need two services running. Jellyfin and immich. I've tested this out in a debian netinstall VM and it works.

Just looking for helpful hints or advice etc. I'm a long time Linux and BSD user and I'm tempted to try it out using Alpine Linux or even NetBSD (my daily driver os) but I thought I'd be sensible and go with Debian for.... Stability?

Anyway, immich is run in a container whereas jellyfin has a binary install. Apparently you can run jellyfin in a container also, not sure I really need to tho?

Thank you for any hints or advice.

A short history of BSD (www.abortretry.fail)

So I'm kind of using 9front for the first time and I really like it. It's really quite a simple operating system. There has certainly been a learning curve coming from Linux and BSD, but I'm getting there. Just need to set up Mail, Faces and an IRC client next.

So far I've just edited the theme, set up a couple functions, customised my riostart, edited the winwatch source code to reduce the padding etc. Everything I've done is pretty much in the acme window.

I've connected to the 9p VPS through rcpu which I find much better than using draw term. Although I suppose I'll need to use draw term to complete challenge two, set up faces for neinbook.

I'm hoping to learn how to edit the main right click menu so I can add launch commands for acme and netsurf. I also would like to edit the new window command to enable -scroll in all new windows. Any tips are welcome and appreciated.

I'm just curious if it would be possible to port rbw to 9front?

 

Title.

Basically, I've had an account on lemmy.ml for a while and now I've moved to lemmy.sdf.org and I can't seem to see my previous posts from my lemmy.ml account.

Hello SDF! (lemmy.sdf.org)

G'day ladies, gentlemen, and all gender non-conforming or non-binary individuals of the Fediverse.

Consider this an #introduction of sorts. I am an ex-Redditor but I'm not new to Lemmy, SDF or the Fediverse. I watched on Mastodon as hordes of people migrated from the imploding bird site and it was wonderful to see. Now watching Reddit push their users towards Lemmy, I'm excited for the future of the internet. A much needed web revolution is upon us.

If you haven't yet, check out mastodon.sdf.org, matrix.sdf.org and pixelfed.sdf.org for more SDF federated goodness. Tell Reddit, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and all other social media giants to get stuffed. Cheers
