  • Germany Introduces New Travel Restrictions for Men Aged 17-45 Amid Military Reforms

  • I built a self-hosted period tracker because I couldn't find one worth using

    Jump

  • There definitely an actively developped open source privacy focused period tracker available, go check it out: https://gitlab.com/bloodyhealth/drip But all data stays local on your device , which is of course good from privacy pov but if you are looking for something accessible from different devices then this might not be suitable.

  • I used to support testing the adblock solutions from Pixeltris some years ago when Twitch actively starting fighting adblockers. It turned out the only reliable way is to use a proxy or VPN of a country that doesnt serve ads via amazons ad system. Mostly small countries where it's not worth place advertisments. I am using eithe czech, polish or Luxembourg IPs and usually dont get any ads this way anymore as there are no corporstions using their af service.

  • Run untapped.gg tracker for MTGA in Linux

    Jump

  • Edit: it is indeed now also fixed on Fedora 43 with Proton 10.0-4 and overlay also works

    ah that's interesting, so on SteamOS the overlay is fully working without glitches? I believe it also uses KDE Pladma in Wayland mode similar to my Fedora. Maybe Valve tweaked something there.

  • “Too many GPUs make you lazy”: Mistral challenges Google with local models Voxtral Mini Transcribe V2 and Voxtral Realtime

    Jump

  • That depends on your requirements or rather what you compare it with. Their models seem to focus on cheap agentic AI usage or even local installations. This will become relevant as soon as the AI bubble bursts and all big players have to massively adjust their prices. E.g. their latest "devstral 2 small" model obviously has to be compared to similar small model that offer a similar FOSS permissive license. But even comparing their bigger service based offering to similar "cheap" offerings from Anthropic it seems they can compete: https://byteiota.com/mistral-devstral-2-7x-cheaper-than-claude-72-swe-bench/

  • Just a reminder to everyone to be civil (according to community rules) but also use the block function when needed. This is both possible for posters and commentors you don't like to see. From the mastodon.world code of conduct: "Do not report every post that upsets you. Please report posts that violate our rules but for others that you may find distasteful, or just don’t like, use the tools available to you. You can block the user or mute the conversation."

  • Nova Launcher gets a new owner and... ads

  • I didn't know about Rethink, looks like a cool project

  • Bye Bye Big Tech: How I Migrated to an almost All-EU Stack (and saved 500€ per year)

    Jump

  • Man I just love the browser and its features. But it does help that they are EU based and have some pretty well known browser veterans as founders. Also they are quite supportive in their forums and I feel they try to be as transparent as possible in their blog posts. E.g. they made clear to support Manifest V2 as long as it is somehow possible while also keep on improving their builtin ad blocker (but we all know nothing can keep up with uBlock)

  • Run untapped.gg tracker for MTGA in Linux

    Jump

  • Nice to hear it worked out for you.

    Yeah I use both the Steam and Protontricks version from the Fedora repos, so no Flatpak. I wonder if the Steam flatpak works better together with Protontricks flatpak but good to see you were able to give it the additional access rights.

    Actually I also had to rename the file name at one point. I added the hint now in the guide.

    Also Protontricks GUI started to throw a couple of errors due to "unknown file arch" of the wine binaries but it still does start after clicking the errors away.

  • Some of the good one are in German. They do have subtitles I think tho or even separate audio tracks. However this year it felt like there were quite a lot in English.

  • I think this is the normal instance behavior of Lemmy instances. It would be too much load for small instances to sync everything in the fediverse. Instead a member of your instance needs to first manually find a community before it starts tracking and makes it automatically available to the other instance members from there on.

  • Is Linux Smartphones any good?

    Jump

  • Few weeks ago I saw a really cool presentation about the history and current state of Linux phone. It is unfortunately in German, slides in English though: https://youtu.be/JeFoRE72Gu0

  • oh cool

    Jump

  • you certainly have very strong opinions about something you can't exactly remember. It's ok to be wrong though we won't hold it against you :-)
