IngeniousRocks (They/She)

Barely a week later and I had to do the thing. My partner uses LMDE and Nvidia 535 is the newest version in their repos, but we need nvidia 565+ for Kingdom Hearts 3.

Installing from the website wasn’t as hard as I remember.

1. Blacklist Nouveau.
2. As root, without an X server running, run the nvidia*.run file from the website
3. Follow the prompts.
4. Verify your initramfs rebuilt correctly before rebooting.
5. Reboot and enjoy your actually current driver.
6. Bonus step, restore your Xorg.conf backup because you’re on a multigpu laptop and you just borked the Xorg.conf with the installer so mesa doesn’t end up loading and X ends up dead on summon

I was today years old when I realized I can install packages non-privelaged if I leverage ~/.local/

Lemmy becomes an accidental skinner box, but the smaller community means you run out of new content to to scroll and end up logging off (right, y’all log off right?)

Corpo Social Media is designed to be a skinner box, to trap you in the scrolling loop dopamine dripfeed. No content too good hits your feed because if it does it doesn’t work to keep you scrolling.

Installing Nvidia drivers from official repos provided by the maintainers of your distro? Easy as pie.

Installing Nvidia drivers from nvidia’s website? Good luck my friend, I hope you know what you’re doing.

Want.

OpenSuse sometime around '07

It didn’t click, ended up moving to Ubuntu almost immediately. A few years later I moved to Fedora. Circa 2020 I dove into Archlinux and managed that for a couple years. Nowadays as I’m learning server stuff I’ve switched to Mint.

There is exactly one type of noob that should be using arch and that’s the kind that has already built an Exocar or at least understands why somebody would.

Hi, 28 here, Roblox came out when I was in middle school, therefore this could be a whole ass Roblox adult, not a Roblox kid.

Honestly, instead of playing shitty clones of games made with child labor through roblox, just play the original games they’re cloning.

Couple of weeks ago I was at a friends place for dinner and the son was playing Roblox. Everyone in the room except him knew he was playing a WoW clone. His dad even told him, “you know I’ll buy you a subscription if you wanna play the real game instead of a shitty clone”

Don’t play Roblox. Its just cheap imitations made with child labor.

I know it got a lot of hate at the time, and much of it well deserved, but for many games I think the steam controller was one of the best.

I quite enjoyed mine for Rocket League back in the day, the remappable controls were quite nice.

Currently I use a SCUF DS4 for my Linux gaming and while I love the Controller in theory, the inability to remap the paddles to a custom button chord instead of just a button that’s already on the controller is frustrating.

Steam Controller 2 is on my must buy list.

Ehhhh I disagree that package managers handle cleanup correctly, I’ve certainly had tons of dotfiles left in ~/ mucking things up when reinstalling apps, even those that have been purged by package managers.

The package manager, much like the windows installer/uninstaller, relies on the developer to be responsible in declaring how the package is meant to be managed. If users have manual steps at installation, they will have manual steps at uninstallation as well.

Embedded matrix client and Teamspeak client in a webpage? Selfhost it.

I’m sure it can’t be that hard. I’m planning on rolling out something similar, if it works I’ll like the source code here.

I have a privacy news channel on my discord server because I’m desperately trying to get my folks to switch to Matrix, it hasn’t happened yet but maybe it will now.

Just because it means a public shag on terf island doesn’t mean the rest of the English speaking g world uses it that way.

In the United States, political violence has ensured overrepresentation of minority populations below the poverty line. Requireing the financial means to have a child thereby limits minority procreation.

To address this, a universal basic income as well as a stipend for parents would be necessary. In the US, this is far away from ever happening, eere actively moving in the opposite direction. Mandatory birth control in this country is eugenics.

Android emulators exist on both windows and Linux allowing the android variant to run on desktop. With most modern machines this is a viable alternative to running natively, with some overhead of course.

Since you seem to understand it then:

How do two clients communicsting over a proprietary network negotiate an end to end encrypted chat channel without sharing keys in an easily decrypted manner?

It seems to me that some kind of handshake needs to occur where the clients need to agree on a cypher, so how does this happen securely?

I’m not worried about encryption being broken, it just seems like if you’re handing the keys over the mail, it’s pretty easy to xray the package and copy the key, is the same not true over digital communication?

This is exactly the type of optimism we need if we’re gonna slow climate change enough to make it

This is an extremely popular opinion among those who’ve not unpacked that what you’re describing is eugenics
