now its another thing to determine whether a server you are looking at has set up support for Element call, or is still on the older calling method not supported by the new apps…

the better solution is to ban porn from the platform. that’s it. there are some people who won’t like it, but they will find another porn platform.

convert them to vorbis. much better quality at mp3 sizes

do you happen to know if shucking is an option and whether it is viable in larger capacity drives? 12, 16 TB or so. for upgrade, not starter server of course

what’s more, that dozen one-attribute classes could have really just been a single class for the button type… and while I’m at it… 10 KB, after minification and compression?? why the fuck does a follow button need so much code?? oh! its because its made with sloppy coding just like in this example!

why did you disable that for it? genuinely interested

guess what, you don’t need to install 2 foss apps into separate android accounts for that

it just seems like they have no clue how to use their phone. or they created dozens of android user accounts, one for each app they use, which does not make any sense but really thwarts using the clipboard

the parent can only do that on devices they own. they can’t do that on classmates devices

Nah, I think we just need a dialog box - could be like osx - “are you sure you want to allow the plugin that you said you wanted to use? It was built by: you, not signed by Mozilla.” Maybe put a “You have unsigned plugins running” tool tip - that gets displayed at startup or every 8 hours.

that won’t help to warn the largest part of the target audience, those who were trained by big tech to dismiss those dialogs by reflex without reading a word in it

You can’t just do “ollama run” and expect good performance, as the local LLM scene is finicky and highly experimental. You have to compile forks and PRs, learn about sampling and chat formatting, perplexity and KL divergence, about quantization and MoEs and benchmarking. Everything is moving too fast, and is too performance sensitive, to make it that easy, unfortunately.

how do you have the time to figure all these out and keep being up to date? do you do this at work?

I used it regularly before I got a keyboard that turned out to have a useless Fn in its place

then 60 days shouldn’t be a problem

and why is the hurry? $8 every 2 months is like the smallest of costs if true

The games not confused it’s the fact your trying to use steam with out it being there and the dll that calls for it can’t find it.

that’s what I meant by the game being confused. that the game depends on steam, but does not find it anywhere, so cannot work, unless a steam emulator is used as a standin.

most indie games really have no DRM, but just a hard dependency on the steamapi.

if the game uses steam DRM, steam emulators cant do anything with that. you additionally need a separate tool that strips the steam DRM

see here: https://gitlab.com/Mr_Goldberg/goldberg_emulator/blob/master/README.md

(Assuming the games have no DRM and use Steam for online).

but indeed, it seems not all games need it:

If you are a game developper and made the mistake of depending too much on the steam api and want to release of version of your game without it and don’t want to rewrite your game, this is for you.

not really? you need goldberg emu or another steam emulator, otherwise games will get confused that they can’t communicate with a steam client for achievements and whatnot

but yeah it’s just about dropping 2 files besides the game exe and done

I’m still a user, I experience it frequently with element x, but old element was no different in regards to that.

I think that’s a big project for a first one, and unless things changed its configuration is not documented too well.

both because of the complexity, and because of security risks, it would be better to start with something local, like a home assistant, or a forgejo/gitea, a jellyfin, things like that. don’t expose them to the internet directly, that’s risky, sometimes they have security bugs. rather if you want remote access, set up a wireguard VPN server. It’s simpler than it sounds
