I don’t think this is the case. Out of the group of 5 that I went to see it with, I was the only one who had read the manga. What I think will happen is that we will see more final seasons turn into theatrical movie releases, as happened with demon slayer. Most of the western audiences probably wouldn’t watch if they didn’t have the anime adaptation first.
I’ve priced it out for myself, and I couldn’t get a build that’s as good at that price, not on new hardware at least. Not sure how they worked out their numbers
You are also missing the huge advances they’ve made in their contributions to FOSS, like proton, FEX, arch, etc. Steam has done an insane amount of legwork to get Linux gaming off the ground. They are the one company that made migrating off of Windows and onto Linux a valid option for me, and a bunch of other folks. Linux was ~0.89% of their userbase in 2020, and since their contributions to these FOSS projects, it has gone up to 3.05%. That’s crazy, considering it had been at or below that 0.89% since 2016.
It’s common in big tech companies to have a small internal team that has the full-time job of contributing to the FOSS software they use. That is how this should have been handled. Google wants a new feature/bug squished? You’ve got your team that can make the change, that’s literally the whole point of FOSS.
As someone with a little insider baseball knowledge, it was just a few hours down of DynamoDB and DNS. However, that caused EC2 to go down for ~1 day, which causes pretty much 1/3 of the internet to go down. Once EC2 sorts themselves out, then teams/companies (almost all amazon services use EC2 in the back end) that use EC2 have to get their ducks back in a row, and that can take any span of time, depending on how well their code was written to handle failures + how many people they are willing to pay oncall/overtime.
E-reader support is still pretty clunky on Kavita, but doable. I normally host my books on Kavita, and then download them to my eReader, and that does a fine job, but it won’t sync progress across devices
All the worst posts, the ones with actual hate speech, have been removed by moderators. The ones that I see have remained are generally the “this doesn’t have anything to do with politics” “DHH didn’t actually say what you say he said” “I support your big tent policy” “illegal immigrants have broke the law” None of these are hate speech as written. I don’t like them supporting Omarchy, and I don’t agree with what the posts in support of Framework’s stance, but I would say Framework has moderated where necessary in that post
As someone with family members who aren’t very techy and have moved to linux, this is huge. I think you, as someone who is familiar with tech, are missing the perspective that normal people can’t be bothered to run a VM, or even launch an app using WINE.
If you already pirate content, welcome to the rabbit hole that will simultaneously make your life way easier and way harder.
Gotta love a good cheese plane
I love the idea of smart glasses, and would happily buy them. However, it’d 1. Need to have 3rd party app support and 2. Be able to work without connecting to any tech company’s servers. I’ve gotten used to my android phone that doesn’t have google play services, and I’ll never go back to having a device that phones home without my permission. In a perfect world I’d like to have some FOSS firmware and OS to run on them, but I’d be willing to go without as long as I could disable traffic to all major tech company servers.
Unfortunately these requirements will likely mean I won’t be getting smart glasses any time soon
Interesting. I played Riven as a kid, and recently played the remake on PC (no VR) and I really enjoyed it. Felt more or less like a faithful recreation, and I didn’t notice anything specifically catering to VR. What parts were disappointing?
Was on the fence for a long time, and I made the move just recently (after the pricing changes. Didn’t effect me since I was grandfathered in, but I saw it as a harbinger for worse things to come) With the creation of Wizarr, it solved my biggest problems with Jellyfin. I can just send an invite link, and it creates accounts for people on Jellyfin, Audiobookshelf, and Kavita, and lets me set up introductory guides for everything. Despite the menu UI/UX being significantly worse than Plex, playback is smoother, load times are shorter, and it can actually handle streaming to really slow internet speeds, something that Plex had a lot of trouble with.
The only app I noticed missing was the Tizen app, but they are working on getting it approved. I only had one family member using a Tizen TV, so I just gave them an old chromecast to run off of instead.
I am also a passerby with no knowledge about this whatsoever, but I would imagine that they own a nice kitchen scale, which would allow for much simpler and more accurate measurements than a liquid measuring cup or similar
That’s fair, but as someone who likes to contribute to FOSS projects with features that I want, I’d like every tool I use to be FOSS, so I can make them work exactly the way I want them to, while also providing something to those that don’t want to/can’t pay for a tool like this, or just don’t want to have the inevitablity of having spent hundreds of hours getting used to a tool, only for the owning company to make it unusable for you.
In FOSS projects, if a project starts to go a route you don’t like, you can ignore all future updates and still get the exact experience you wanted.
Yup. Linux + Nvidia is the problem here. I convinced my friend to move to Linux, explaining that all his favorite Steam games work on my Linux machine with no issues, just download and click play, tested it myself. Turns out, I don’t have an nvidia gpu, he does, and a lot of the games straight up don’t work, and the ones that do need at least one config change, if not more.
I have yet to have any issues on Steam myself when gaming with my Radeon card.
I2P is basically this
Fair, I’ll try to get my kill-a-watt plugged in to check next time the server powers down and report back. Power is fairly cheap where I live, and I’ve got solar, so that’s never been a huge concern for me. I’d have to check, but I’ve always assumed it’s pulling ~10 watts per drive at normal times, and as far as I know my power bill is pretty much reflecting this. (Due to how my data pool works all drives need to be spinning when in use, and my drives get basically zero down time).
And that’s good, when I first got into self hosting I was greedy for storage and didn’t have the money to pay for redundancy, and I got bit a few times. Now my media server is running on 2 8-drive pools, each with two drives of parity. Ends up being around 200TB of useable space. I don’t have backups on my media pools, as right now I’m using 24TB drives and the cost to back that up just doesn’t make sense. I do however have my personal cloud on mirrored drives with a backup at my brother’s house, also on mirrored drives, so it’d be pretty unlikely for me to lose the important stuff.
I subscribe to the philosophy that each server should handle one thing. I’ve got a NAS that stores all data for all other servers other than boot drives. I’m using only spinning rust for data, so the network speed is never the bottleneck for my system. My NAS is a 24 bay chassis with the LSI card in IT mode. I got an LSI card that is powered from the PCIe port itself, and power usage for the card itself seems negligible, but spinning 24 drives takes a decent bit of power. I’ve got 20 drives in it now and it’s pretty loud, but substantially quieter than the dell r720 it replaced. It’s in my basement so it doesn’t bother me, but if sound is an issue, and you don’t need a ton of space, definitely go with SSDs. I’ve also got a media server that handles all media streaming (movies/TV/audiobooks/music/ebooks/comics/manga/roms). It reads/writes it’s data to the NAS. I’ve got another server running my personal cloud (nextcloud, password manager, testing new SH services). Again, the nextcloud data is on the NAS. Both servers store backups to the NAS, as well as a second local drive. I’ve also got a handful of raspberry pis running the smart house stuff, and one running the Ubiquiti Controller. All are running the PoE hat with the m.2 port on them for stable boot drives, and store their backups on the NAS. I’ve kind of stopped running proxmox + virtualization when I switched off of the r720, as I find that running Debian on bare metal with btrfs backups is simpler for me, and I run almost all of my services in Docker. I’ve had a motherboard go out on my media server, and was able to swap the motherboard and get everything back up and running in a little under 2 hours. Longest part was the motherboard swap itself.
It’s part one of the ending of the show, there will be 2 more movies that will wrap up the show.
