Whatever idea you have to phones, you‘re wrong. They can easily make 5 plus years if you treat them right. The more problematic part is daily use and battery degradation/repair.
But google sucks anyway so I‘ll stay with postmarketOS on my oneplus6 and wait for my camera to come to life some day (hopefully).
Very interesting! Thanks for the heads up. I didnt know that. 7 years ago, they already used wine for that. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44014390/how-to-generate-a-windows-executable-using-pyinstaller-on-linux#45065125
If all else fails you could also use a vm. Thats probably less dangerous than dual booting because of windows not playing nice with grub.
Yes. I just researched and found out minecraft uses its own engine based on lwjgl. It’s a little bit like whatsapp and matrix. While whatsapp uses(d?) xmpp, matrix is the protocol, not the client.
I used modrinth launcher since the whole platform is open source afaik. Big fan.
That said, I stopped playing minecraft since microsoft has perverted everything I liked about it to make it a childrens game with microtransactions. They recently announced ramping up the breakneck speed of updates to make it more like a live service game which may devastate the mod community.
I since made a voxelibre server which works surprisingly well. I also maintain a minecraft inspired texture pack since I dislike visual change.
In any case. Good luck.
I think peertube needs shortd and mobile apps desperately to fill this void.
The interesting thing is how people find ways around my politics filter all the time by using abbreviations. Is there no way to keep politics to the politics channels folks?
I completely agree that everyone should use free software. Not for free of course but by donating or straight up paying for it.
That aside, I think your stance is the „vindictive vegan“ approach. While I‘m a newly found fan of veganism, I strongly dislike the „you’re either with us or against us“ approach.
I personally run a matrix server (which is foss, even if it sounds like its second class foss to you) and have it bridged to discord, whatsapp and signal. Why? Because that helps me convert people.
Their reasons for joining matrix:
- You can use one app (fluffychat in my case) instead of four apps
- People on the other platforms miss out if the bridge goes down which shows them its matrix first. With mautrix bridges, the bridge very rarely goes down btw
- their chats will be accessible for them forever if they wish, with backups they can take whenever they like
- no chance the EU breaks their encryption
- no chance for discord, meta or anyone else to sell their data (of course not in the bridged room)
I think there are better albeit more manipulative ways to get people to convert instead of punching them on the nose. Certain matrix only rooms do help, provided they have no equivalent on the other side.
Anyway, have a good one.
Strongly agree! I switched as well, so did my wife and its glorious. We‘re both avid gamers and no issues so far. We have strong opinions about intrusive anti cheat software so that helped.
I did make a windows vm for my wife since she needs to work with adobe sometimes and it seems to work perfectly so far.
Feel free to update on your journey.
Cant watch rn. Can someone hint what the gist is?
I have recently switched a second tv to kodi and I‘m very happy. I had an appletv but it is just so limited and reminds me that I dont really own that device. Now I can play retro games, watch all my movies, listen to music and see my favorite pictures without having to use apples ecosystem or paing them for being able to use my device.
All people should strike as long as the wages are still not bound to inflation. How the hell should anyone except CEOs feel treated fairly? Housing is unaffordable, companies grow to nation state size and bolster record profits while most wages were outrun by inflation for the last 50 years.
Walled garden or die
Thats how i read azure
Pure principle is the answer. People who buy a game should be able to play the game as long as they wish, sell it, give it their grandkids for all I care.
The problem with your argument is „doesnt affect me, wont bother“.
Think of anything you like or even love. Now think of it being taken away, because someone else doesnt care about it. You think thats fair?
Well, reading up on the modlog, the things that were removed were riddled with rhetoric. Try to leave the judgement out of your words and you‘ll probably have a better time.
Even the post you made to complain about it is problematic. Not everyone here is a native english speaker. Even those might not have the will to read through your four line long sentence.
Also, me joining the apple fanbois club and telling them why apple is not great just does not make sense. Same goes for veganism or any other thing people like. Critical discussions are for the broader fields, not the „fan convention“.
Its actually the same with real money. Since we gave up the gold standard, money has become a digital currency as well. Both are used to manipulate us.
I didnt even know about this one. Pretty awesome. Is it a drop in replacement for jellyfin and plex or different?
Sounds like we might meet at the congress in december. :)
Hi folks! First of all, huge appreciation for this insane lemmy client. I‘ve been using it for two years roughly and I‘m over the moon about it.
I want this app to be even more wonderful so I wanted to share my idea for a more integrated search:
Currently, when you‘re on a small instance like mine, you dont see every community on every server you are connected to due to the way AP works.
For that reason, I would love to see all communities and be able to subscribe to them by using lemmyverse.net as a search option.
Steps to reproduce
- make new instance
- add user
- connect with voyager
- type anything in the search bar
- find nothing
Btw I know we already have the „discover“ option but it works different from what I‘m suggesting and is less intuitive and more cluttered than my approach imo.
Suggested behavior
- You hit search and get „lemmyverse.net“ as a search option
- click it
- see all communities with the content you searched for
- hit subscribe
- get content
I hope this makes sense to you as I think this will boost the discoverability of lemmy by a huge margin! This would also probably be a unique feature, setting voyager even more apart from other clients (and of course be a great role model for them to follow).
Thanks for reading and have a good one.

Today I encountered something new and dystopian:
You can airplay from your iphone to an appletv but now youtube drops and locks the quality at 360p, making the content unwatchable on larger screens.
Once you disable airplay, the quality jumps back to 1080p. If you choose 1080p before and enable airiplay after, it still changes.
This hasnt been an issue for years. this new anti consumer move prompted me to order another raspberry pi to put kodi on.

Hi folks,
since the only kodi specific communities are on the two biggest instances, I went ahead and created a new one on my small instance. !addons4kodi@lemmy.giftedmc.com
It has been around for many months and has strong uptime so please consider it here to stay. I will work on the visuals soon.
Feel free to check it out and post in it.
Have a nice day.

> This comes after a sea of games have been lost due to the creators turning off the servers. While community remake projects like RELB for Lawbreakers, Loadout Reloaded and a server emulator for The Crew exist, they're miles behind where we'd be if publishers just released a way to host our own servers before killing their creations. They need more signatures from European citizens and then the proposal goes to a board who decide what to do with it.

The phone is an oneplus6 with postmarketOS. VoxeLibre runs on minetest 5.9.0 dev, compiled from source. I played for about 30 minutes and it cost about 20% battery. It runs butter smooth and has no input lag at all. Must be one of the best mobile gaming experiences I ever had. A little optimization would be great down the line but i was surprised how good this is!
Hi folks! I'm currently trying to learn a good workflow to fork a (say) github project and work on it on my forgejo. I have made forks and PRs in the past but I fail to see how to do it in this case, at least efficiently.
I could of course fork on github and mirror the repo on my forge. That would include me putting my work on github instead of only making a PR on github. I would prefer forking directly to my forge and sending only the PR on github. On the other hand, if I delete my fork afterward, it was pretty irrelevant to begin with.
How would you approach this?
I'm experiencing some odd behavior. Lemmy communities on my server seem to have stalled (no new posts and or comments) since 2 days.
I went ahead and upgraded lemmy to 0.19.5 and postgres to the current version but to no avail so far.
.ml got banned by fail2ban but I set it on the ignore list now. any ideas where to start looking for the problems? I checked for the other big communities and they're okay it seems.
I can of course start adding logs in here but I would love to know which service or log I should start with.
Thanks for reading. Have a good one.
Edit: outgoing federation works. this post made it to ml in seconds.
