Fully agree. I tried to make the SC work and wrote off a lot of it as "I'm just not used to it", but it really is asking a lot. In its defence, it was a first run product. The fact that it's still ass usable and as weird is impressive enough to me. But it's better as a piece of gaming history than a good product. It was just a good try.

I also agree with the Steam deck controls being actually good. I want the SC2 that's just a steam deck without the screen or computer.

So I guess the opposite of the steam brick.

I'd gladly pay $100 to have a steam deck like control scheme for my desktop. Rechargeable batteries and a Linux first design would be awesome. I don't mind just using cables all the time, but I would like better wireless options for Linux gamepads (though to be fair, I haven't tried connecting a wireless controller to a Linux box in 5 years).

Bro how much did Desantis pay to get this angle on the header?

Uh, it's crinkle cut and someone will die on my hill.

That's a shower thought of all time.

"Leftists" being put over an image of the FUCKING POLICE

Is always funny.

OP has brain worms and is a lib

For simply productivity like Copilot or Text Gen like ChatGPT.

It absolutely is doable on a local GPU.

Source: I do it.

Sure I can't do auto running simulations to find new drugs and protein sequencing or whatever. But it helps me code. It helps me digest software manuals. That's honestly all I want

Also, massive compute projects for the @home project are good?

Local LLMs runs fine on a 5 year old GPU, a 3060 12 gig. I am getting performance on par with cloud ran models. I'm upgrading to a 5060ti just because I wanted to play with image Gen.

Whack. I just set up a Forgejo too.

 

Anyone have any recommendations for Blog software?

I was considering for a while just using a mastodon instance as my blog because I just kinda wanna sign in and upload my papers that I've written. I was pretty close with Hugo. I'd rather not have to build the site everytime I upload and I want to self host and not use Github actions. I think I still could do it since I like using Cloudflared tunnels.

What is all out there?

Which is funny since that does solve a lot of the problems.

If it's completely open source at least.

Like OS data sets and model that can be ran locally means it's not trained on stolen data and it's not spying on people for more data.

And if it runs locally on a GPU, it's no worse for the environment than gaming. Really the big problem with the data center compute is the infrastructure of getting that data around.

Weird. There used to be screen shot receipts I saw years ago.

Maybe she scrubbed it and turned a leaf? I hope so at least because B'Elanna was my favorite character.

Well then what are you doing here?

If the goal isn't to change minds or balance the voices and opinions on Lemmy.

And you admittedly aren't a conservative wanting a community since you do seem to have a community you'd rather participate in that is actively contradictory.

You don't agree with the articles. You don't believe you're adding to the articles viewer ship. In fact the only thing that this sub seems to do is attract angry people from the all feed who assume you think these opinion pieces are good hence why you're sharing and then call you a fascist when the article has fascist aligned ideas. The only thing that seems to do is confirm your belief that third party voters are called fascists and Nazis. You've even taken the handle of the two men who are participating in the rounding up of US citizens and residents to a forced labor concentration camp.

You're just an RSS feed no one's asked for?

I'm a third party voter myself. I don't vote libertarian because I don't think they want to solve the problems I'm worried about, but I do agree a more diverse election options would be better. That seems to be your biggest concern and I don't see how being a mouth piece of an establishment party helps. Sure you're not a good one, but you're still a mouthpiece.

I really would like to know what it is you're doing then. What is the goal of this community? Why?

[–] nagaram@startrek.website 1 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I'm also a both sides suck kinda fellow, but I don't bolster ideas I don't agree with. Personally I believe that if the view point can be consistently drowned out in proper discourse or removed with little complaints from members of the community, then it has simply lost in the marketplace of ideas.

This is different in my eyes to propaganda or authoritarian censorship in that Lemmy is a place where anyone can share any opinion freely. Or engage with whatever ideas they want. And the Lemmy community has seemly decided that they do not want or like conservative ideas.

Where as authoritarian censorship is being stripped of your citizenship, visa, etc because you condemn an active genocide or said mean things about the president and his army of secret police that kidnap people without due process.

Maybe I don't really understand your goal here, but how could you identify as an anarchist of any type when you're simply sharing the same propaganda that an overtly authoritarian regime is feeding people?

You're not really bolstering the little guys considering they have all 3 branches of federal government. Maybe Nazi accusations are extreme (I disagree, but for the sake of discussion) but they're still openly authoritarian and pro crony capitalism. Does this not weigh on your conscious? That you're choosing to be a mouth piece of this regime?

 

I run my production Jellyfin server and a few other services on a Optiplex sff computer with a thicc hard drive and a low profile GPU.

I want to build two more of these with thicc Hard drives so that my parents and my in-laws can have a local Jellyfin instance that I manage remotely and they just need a box plugged in somewhere at their homes.

Is it possible to make Proxmox build a VPN tunnel on boot so I can just have it in my cluster dash. Like using tailscale or openvpn.

Or am I going to have to go with my original plan and put that on the same box as the Jellyfin server and then just VNC in?

Any tips or ideas?

 

I've been wearing Xero shoes as my preferred every day shoe and my hiking shoe of choice for a while. I got a few pairs on a steep sale and now my last pair is starting to die.

I don't mind getting more, but I'd like to see what else is out there. I used to wear Altra and I've gotten Hobbart shoes, but those were weird shaped and rubbed on my pinky toes.

Any suggestions for foot shaped shoes? I'd prefer some cushion like Altras and bonus if there's a business casual looking variety

 
 

Hello comrades! Friendly reminder that American leftists continue to be threatened by gun loving conservatives. You should know how to defend yourself and you should probably own a gun. Find an active SRA, John Brown Gun Club, or (if things are dire) pink pistols or other "apolitical" gun club.

I've been in the SRA for 4 years, it's not great, but I met comrades local to me. I've learned a lot from them and fash who post good firearms advice and I love to share that when I can.

Open for questions and I'll post more getting started stuff if this doesn't get banned.
