I had the same, but modded it to the Nokia Engage d-pad, because it was indeed terrible.
The reason they went with this design was that the GP32 had a similar stick and it was great. No idea what went wrong with the one in the GP2X though.

Yeah, beginners are probably better served with Yunohost.
They posted on the admin chat that their hosting provider had a hardware failure and is working on providing a replacement server.
Well usually the opposite happens. People make many releases and outsource the testing to unsuspecting users.
This is IMHO fine if you clearly mark these releases as release candidates or such, so that people can make their own risk judgement. But usually that isn’t the case and one minor version looks like any other unless you have a closer look at the actual changes in the code.
I think the better option is to have many releases that are clearly marked as beta-test releases or release candidates for those that don’t mind testing stuff.
“Bigger” is a bit missleading here. Really bigger updates obviously require a major version bump to signify to users that there is potential stability or breakage issues expected.
But “bigger” in the other sense i.e. meaning slower, means that there was more time for people to run pre-release versions if they are adventurous and thus there is better testing.
Of course this assumes that there are actual beta testers and that it is easy to do so by creating such beta releases.
Afaik that depends on the GPU. On AMD cards it works pretty nicely.
Monado is an interesting project and I have dabbled about with it a bit, but it is nowhere near the ease of use as SteamVR yet.
It’s really no different from Windows. When it works it works out of the box. At least with a Vive or Index.
The problem is purely that Valve pushes out updates and doesn’t seem to check if they actually work on common setups.
I wish I could say the same, but something broke SteamVR again on KDE (wayland) recently.
It’s really a love hate relationship with VR on Linux. When it runs, it runs fine, but it randomly breaks all the time as Valve seems to do very little testing of their Linux version 😢
Yeah, running it like that here. Works fine for the most part, except that the hybrid inverter that I bought advertised “UPS” mode, but it doesn’t actually switch fast enough to avoid also adding a proper UPS (but running an UPS chained is another issue…).
It sounds a bit strange as it does actually run off the battery all the time (unless below the minimum charge limit, when it seamlessly switches to grid power automatically), but due to legal requirements it needs to switch to another supply mode when the grid power fails and this switch is not entirely seamless on my inverter.
Active enough 🤷♂️
Rebuilding my main router to work with 10gbe fiber that recently became available here. Although it is a tad expensive, so I am not actually sure yet if I will upgrade my contract.
It could be done with GNU Taler. There are even some NLnet funded grants for open-source projects to integrate it.
The fediverse app would need to implement a relatively basic frontend and someone would need to host a so called merchant backend that multiple people could share to collect funds.
The main show stopper is the final bank integration, but it looks like there will be some options in the EU starting mid of 2025. Basically you will be able to make a SEPA bank transfer to charge your GNU Taler wallet (you can use an open-source mobile app or a browser plugin for that) and then you can use these funds to make micro-payments and donations.
I’m mildly interested to test it once their from scratch reimplementation of the XMPP backend works. Maybe I can then finally stop screaming at people that still use Pidgin as an xmpp client despite it being at least 15 years out of date.
If I get it correctly then that deleted post is only visible to you in case you want to undelete it.
But it’s early days. And of course Bookwyrm.
There are some credible rumors that Durov had financial issues during the pandemic and went back to Russia to strike some sort of deal with the regime there, which would also explain why since then there have been no further attempts to block Telegram in Russia.
No, that divide isn’t political. Its about utilitarianism.
The side you are opposed to cares more about getting many people “good enough” privacy, than getting the best possible privacy for a few while alienating most other people.
