  • He's in the Epstein files

    Edit: Just because someone is mentioned in the Epstein files doesn't mean they are a pedophile. The premise of OPs post is based on the fact that Hawking is somehow associated with Epstein, which has spawned rumors (from dubious sources) about some kind of impropriety.

  • I don't like politicians that support billionaires or holy wars either, but isn't this ideology partially responsible for the situation we're in now?

    I understand that voting for someone who is not just the lesser of two evils but also directly opposed to our fundamental values might perpetuate a broken system... but couldn't there be a way to change the political zeitgeist without killing our own citizens in the streets and threatening to glass a country of millions?

    I want the systems of oppression to fall as much as the next guy, but allowing the Trump administration to concentrate power as fast as possible doesn't seem like a fair trade to get there.

  • Edit: I forgot to even mention, this explaination is for running windows apps on linux with steam (which is a native linux app available in essentially all repositories).

    You can run most games (regardless of how you acquired them) directly in steam via proton.

    If the app you want to run is a windows executable (.exe or .msi or whatever), you can add it as a "Non-Steam game" (even if it isn't a game).

    If you have trouble getting it started, try changing the compatibility layer in library -> game -> properties -> compatibility -> enable steam play compatibility tool -> choose some version of proton (like proton experimental)

    Fair warning: Valve is currently chill about adding games to steam without proof of purchase, but they could change their minds someday.

    Also, pro tip, if you really wanna get in the weeds with proton, I recommend proton-tricks. There are very few windows apps you can't get running with proton and proton-tricks.

  • Despite the challenge getting it set up, I have high hopes for movim! I like the direction they're going now.

    I did end up successfully deploying it in a compose stack (despite this issue), and I'll probably submit a fix if they don't get to it before I do.

    If anyone is interested, I can share the details about how I got it going.

    I just recently migrated all of my stuff to dockerized services, so swapping out pieces should be pretty easy

  • I've had matrix and element set up on my personal domain for a while, but I've only used them for evaluation so far. The system and network resources used are HUGE...

    I've been setting up movim and a seperate xmpp server for a little while, and I have some initial opinions:

    • xmpp (prosody) appears to be much better optimised than matrix (synapse)
    • matrix and element are much easier to set up
    • movim is a huge PITA to deploy yourself (especially in a container... you're basically on your own at the moment)
    • xmpp requires tcp ports and ssl certs that should be easy to set up... unless you're on a cgnat network. Matrix can be set up through a cloudflare tunnel with https no problem, but xmpp requires some networking elbow grease.
    • the mandatory certificates probably make the xmpp network safer?
    • Even with the mautrix discord bridge copying the exact layout of discord channels into element, movim seems more familiar to me. I haven't really had enough time to evaluate movim, but it seems like it's trying to appeal to discord users, and element is clearly not. Element feels like a well funded enterprise tool that is doing its own thing.
    • commet (with 2 m's) chat is a very faithful discord clone for matrix, but it's very barebones.

    Either way, I am gonna deploy both and let my friends/discord channel users decide what works best.

    I'm rooting for xmpp at the moment, but I will be happy with anything that is self hosted, encrypted and federated.

    Hopefully I don't end up having to maintain both protocols with a bridge!

  • In America, the only part that most people would want to print is the serialized part of the firearm. In a Glock it's the frame (which is polymer in OEM Glocks), and in an AR, it's the lower receiver.

    You can buy a Glock slide assembly, barrel, frame rails, trigger, etc anonymously and without any paperwork.

    The same is true of ARs, you can get all of the parts except the lower receiver anonymously and without paperwork.

    Also, unless you live in a state where the local laws explicitly prohibit it (like WA), it's perfectly legal to make your own firearms. You can even serialize and register them with the ATF if you want (but you are not legally obligated to do so). You don't need an FFL/SOT to do it.

    I wouldn't do it if you don't know your local laws though... If you break the law or violate ATF policy, they'll shoot your dog and send you to prison forever.

  • Because, properly set up, you can also send mail from that address (or at least that's how it appears to recipients).

    How would you go about doing this? Getting the @linux.com domain to forward incoming email from a specific address somehow?

  • I figured I aught to return to this to let you know... I ran a bunch of tests and trialed some new browsers for my use case, and ungoogled chromium is working great for me.

    Nearly identical performance to Brave (after tweaking some settings and flags), and Mv2 uBlock working perfectly.

    Thanks for pushing me to give other browsers a try again!

  • I don't think trivalent existed yet when I did my tests, and I didn't realize Mv2 still worked on ungoogled chromium. I feel like I might have suspected that support would get pulled eventually, but it has been more than a year. I use ungoogled chromium for some web based HID driver stuff.

    Might as well give them a try!

  • I use vanadium (and graphine) on my phone but I use Brave on my desktop.

    Until last year I had been using Firefox since around 2007, but I started having awful performance issues.

    I ran a ton of tests on a large variety of browsers (including some niche early development browsers) and Brave (with every BS feature disabled) outperformed all of the others by a wide margin.

    If there was a foss browser with functioning adblock, no BS features or political ideologies, and reasonable performance, I would switch right away... But all 3 is a tall order.

    Also, I wanna note, before I switched I tried every Firefox config and all of the performance focused forks. I tried messing with memory usage and hardware acceleration, and even running it in sandboxes/flatpak... Either way it would consume tons of resources at idle, and would sometimes crash my machine when I kept it running while starting up my hypervisor or blender or my IDE or a resource hungry game.

    Brave just works, and has functional adblock.

  • Old School Runescape

    It's different from other MMOs but has remained unchanged graphically since 2007.

    There are free-to-play worlds, which serve as the intro/demo for the game, however that experience can last a long time. Completing all free quests is a fun goal.

    Once you're knees deep, you can effectively play for free by buying your game time from other players with gold, but it's challenging to get to that point. I wouldn't expect to get there easily without buying a couple months of membership.

    Edit: I forgot to explain why it's fun lol

    First of all, it's a point-and-click style game, which was made for an audience of mostly children, so there is a ton of content that should be easy to digest...

    That being said, OSRS gets regular updates and the modern content can be extraordinarily challenging.

    I was a mythic raider in wow (with front page parses), I've done savage in ffxiv, and I was even Exarch in Tera Online, and OSRS provides content that takes me weeks to beat (and I have been playing actively on and off since 2004).

    The game is a vast sandbox full of well designed content. It has a well balanced combat system with a low skill floor and a high skill ceiling and almost unlimited potential for skill expression.
