Giving one person all of the power over what others can see and read hasn’t, historically, worked out.
Bluesky is exactly the same, structurally, as Twitter. A person, or tiny group of people get to decide what everyone else gets to see.
It’s a bad structure for social media, as we’ve seen from Twitter. Making Twitter 2 - Blue edition, doesn’t improve things.
There are tens of us!
I was only saved from eating the onion because I was updating a spreadsheet and had to enter the date about 15 minutes before I saw the headline.
If you read the article, it isn’t about AI.
It’s used to cool lithography machines which produce all CPUs, GPUs, RAM, etc. The entire world of electronics is built on the output of these lithography machines.
The headline may as well say “Iran War Chokes Off Helium Supply Critical for Skibidi Toilet memes” Helium isn’t used in AI datacenters, it has nothing to do with AI outside of the fact that every processor is made using lithography.
Critical for AI
It’s critical for lithography, the process that makes all of the magical chips that make the modern world function.
Because clickbaiting the ‘AI bad’ people is worth more advertising money than actually examining the effects of a helium shortage.
People get hurt on Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas too.
please explain how something impossible is considered funny.
I would enter the following to the record as Exhibits A-E
e: also, theonion.com
They would if AMD actually announced something like this.
This is entirely a Techspot joke, there is no AMD press release: https://www.amd.com/en/newsroom/press-release-search.html
people are upset because april fools is full of bullshit lies
Unlike every other day where the Internet is the bastion of truth and reality.
Look at Tailscale (or self-host headscale)
It’s a bit of learning (like all of these other things) but it’s a very powerful tool.
I do agree with the general point that Jellyfin shouldn’t require a VPN.
But yeah, if I was alone and only had a pile of anime I’d already seen before, which I only watched from my Linux devices, Samba and VLC would do me fine 😛
Use NFS for your sanity. Linux samba/CIFS is annoying to deal with.
Also, mpv
Yes, not everyone. My grandmother would struggle setting up a VPN, for example.
However, a community member of the selfhosted community is perfectly capable of reading a manual and learning the software.
That’s how you become tech literate in the first place, and you’re already on that path if you’re commenting/reading here.
You only have to give them access to a specific port on a specific machine, not your entire LAN.
My VPN has a ‘media’ usergroup who can only access the, read-only, NFS exports of my media library.
If you’re just installing Wireguard and enabling IP forwarding, yeah it would not be secure. But using a mesh VPN, like Tailscale/Headscale, gives you A LOT more tools to control access.
The last good Windows was Windows 98
Oh I’m not paying for them, but still one of my main daily drivers is Genshin, and I haven’t found such an enjoyable open world exploration in any other game I’ve tried.
Genshin Impact works on Linux: https://lutris.net/games/genshin-impact/
(I’m PC-only so haven’t tried Breath of the Wild.)
I’m Linux only and I’ve played Breath of the Wilds (works on Windows too).
Go to your favorite torrent site (1337x to) and search for Breath of the Wild. It’ll be packaged with the emulator so you don’t need to do anything. It’s a better experience, higher framerate, antialiasing, 4k upscaling and reverse tonemapping (Windows calls this autoHDR) (and basically anything that you can do with ReShade)
Also I was talking about Adobe alternatives like Inkscape for Illustrator or Scribus for InDesign. From what I’ve read they are really not there yet. (Tried Inkscape a few times, but the UI is so unintuitive for my brain used to Adobe’s UI/workflow 😭)
A few months ago someone made a patch which makes the Adobe CC 2021 and 2025 installer work in Wine.
Come on in, the Linux water is fine :)
Yeah, low water pressure would be my guess.
Water can cut through steel plate at high enough pressure. It can certainly remove poop from a butt with enough pressure.
I’d imagine something like a guest bathroom that is rarely used so the bacteria have time to multiply and diffuse up the water pipe. Or develop a biofilm on the pipe walls that isn’t removed by running water (to see this effect leave a dish of water out for a few days so it feels slimy then try to rinse it with water)
I don’t think this is likely at all, but I could understand how it could come about in some niche situations.
This comment made me feel old.
That is how everyone used to do it.
It’s way more convenient now, I agree.
This is not a systemd flaw. This is a snap bug.
