Hurry! Release the server code on the high seas before the Sony lawyers find you!!!

Not on purpose in the way you are suggesting… he tried it all on his own in earnest, but made a dumb mistake not reading the prompt carefully enough or trying to understand it. But, he only got into that situation because of an error on Pop OS! maintainers’ part. It was an unknown issue at the time until he uncovered it. OCAU thread that discussed the issue at the time

I tried it out and challenged myself not to touch the terminal to fix anything for as long as I could, to see if it is a truly ready-out-of-the-box experience.

It is actually very intuitive for gaming, what makes it feel more suited than most distros for me is that flatpak apps that you don’t have installed show up in the start menu, ready to add if you need them. Other OSs are leaner and cleaner but you’d have to know the package name.

I managed to get everything started, games and stuff including minor tweaks, and the first time I needed to use the terminal was to work out how to get some fan control working. I didn’t succeed in setting it up. So I took away from that experience that low level hardware OS tasks are harder to access in Bazzite.

I wonder if their Fex software will be extensible to other devices and open sourced.

Alright, the VR set I’ve been waiting for!

What I love about Valve is you can tell they are clearly taking stuff they learned from their earlier products (Deck, Index, Controller, Machine) to combine it and make it better.

Luckily I have several email accounts, and my most important one has not been added yet.

I think much of the gatekeeping is over concern that if you mess up, you could unknowingly be allowing a sophisticated hacker to access all the data on your network, without any obvious signs. And maybe some people don’t want to field noob questions like “I clicked something and now the GUI gives a 😕 and doesn’t work anymore, what do I do?”.

There is a skill floor, I would say similarly that you wouldn’t be ready to install Linux yourself if you don’t get suspicious when a .iso download gives you a .exe file instead.

I think Yunohost is a decent solution for beginners that avoids as much of the nitty-gritty as possible. Louis Rossman has made a massive guide that’s about as close as an IKEA step-by-step as you can get with this stuff. We should be encouraging people to learn, but there is a sense of reticence to have people get too in over their heads due to cybersecurity reasons.

Edit: linked the guide

Neil planted a drumstick in the ground as a teenager, it sprouted into a drum pedal, and before he knew it, cymbals were in full bloom around him.

May he enjoy eternal bliss with his infinite-piece drum kit.

As the saying goes: Delete facebook, hit the gym, lawyer up.

“Let’s try another 6 week paid vacation. All because of the Democrats, smh” - Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson, supposedly.

Everyone on Lemmy politics could have written this headline the day the work started happening, Trump has a 50+ year tenure stiffing contractors.

Edit: Snopes Fact check calls this an unconfirmed rumour

I think this is a little different because I believe in unreleased form this is more of a monkey on the Trump fandom’s back. Had they just been released at the start, there would have been massive coverage for a week, but MAGA would believe that Trump’s different by being open and transparent about it, and Democrats are just whining and people would forget about it much like the Papers. Whereas this way, it’s clear the Republican swamp has something it REALLY doesn’t want to reveal, to the point they’d be willing to starve the country and hold the entire government hostage over releasing them.

If the average American voter’s days were filled with lavish dinner parties, golfing trips and vacations where famous people gave them golden trinkets, then I could imagine they would think their country is on a good path.

Well, if it lead to a Democratic Socialist leading the financial capital of the USA that’s something.

Newsom/Greene 2028, lmao (please let this be a joke!)

“I wish Andrew Cuomo only the best in private life.” - Mayor-elect Mamdani

Here’s the thing. Mamdani’s a good man, the mayor has some levers like rent control, but he doesn’t have the power to fix everything about the city completely alone. He will need every New Yorker who was moved by his campaign to help him accomplish his promises.

AP calls the race for Mamdani as well.

Beacon of hope in a dark time for America. Now it’s time for all New Yorkers to prepare to make the city that lifts everyone up in a way that every North American city would want to emulate.

To do that (assuming rules mean anything to Republicans) they will have to swear Grijalva in as Congresswoman, and the Epstein files would be set for release so who knows if they will.
