bitwolf, to memes in Japan is on its own wavelength.

It is arguably the best way to name large sets of indexed files on a filesystem.

bitwolf, to piracy in I feel like the Steam Deck is the best proof of Gabe Newell's quote that "piracy is a service issue."

I was playing MegaMan Battle Neckwork and Tony Hawks pro Skater using emu deck for almost a year.

When both dropped on Steam I bought both. Unfortunately MegaMan Battle Network requires Internet to run so I reverted back to the emulators.

Tony Hawk is a wonderful port however.

bitwolf, to linux in As a normal, boring user that does nothing special other than browse the internet and the occasional "casual coding" -- what am I supposed to do with 32GiB of ram?

With the rate at which Electron applications catch on? Nothing, you’ll end up using it all in a few years time.

bitwolf, to privacy in The Boost android client for Lemmy is displaying these dark pattern ads pretending to be system notifications. What security/privacy conscious Lemmy clients do you recommend?

Sync Pro (paid) Jerboa (free)

bitwolf, (edited ) to linux in A response to the "Boycott Wayland" article

Nvidia works on Wayland now. And in 6.6 the noveou will support reclocking on 2xxx+

Games also work fine under Wayland. Either with gamescope or kwin.

Mutter works well but they haven’t yet merged vrr support so you have to get that separately.

bitwolf, to linuxmemes in I don't...

It is not getting new features anymore. Just because the distro is packaging it doesn’t mean it’s not dead.

I heard Sway is very similar to i3. But I’m partial to hyprland myself

bitwolf, to linux in Is there any future for the GTK-based Desktop Environments?

❤️ GTK and Gnome.

I swear the same people that complain about Gmome3+ also complain about Wayland.

Both projects put a lot of thought into their controversial decisions, they’re attempting to learn from their mistakes.

There comes a point where you need to adapt to change. And both these projects have proven their changes are beneficial.

bitwolf, to piracy in "Piracy is a service issue.." (Image is a real story btw, link in post)

If you parents have a standard TV stick or Apple TV their devices support a variety of codecs.

This means that you can “direct stream” content from Plex / Jellyfin with minimal CPU impact.

At 1080p it should at least support ~4 direct streams when it doesn’t have to “transcode”.

That said, even if it is weak by today’s standards it’s a good platform to learn the setup on. Then you can move to something else more powerful (but still cheap) once you understand it all.

At least that’s how I did it, 3b+ -> Pentium J5040

bitwolf, to memes in Surprised Pikachu

Long term they will move to Firefox also.

Because people like us will continue to suggest they use Firefox as their “tech person”.

It’s just a little slower for the people that don’t care.

bitwolf, to linux in I Made Screen Brightness Control on Gnome Much Better

I can see you’ve gotten some code review so I will just eagerly watch as this gets worked out and eventually merged.

I never had an issue with the backlight curve or lack thereof however a friend recently demoed a similar impl they put together for hyprland and it is a very nice change.

Looking forward to seeing it in the next Gnome release 🤞

bitwolf, to asklemmy in How would you go about a low maintenance personal website today?

Definitely Jekyll or Hugo on GitHub pages.

I use Ghost CMS because I wanted an easier mobile editing experience, it is also very low maintenance in its container form.

bitwolf, to linuxmemes in Never again

It’s not my favorite option. But at least use Discourse.

bitwolf, to linux in GNOME Sees Progress On Variable Refresh Rate Setting, Adding Battery Charge Control

I don’t think in any way that would lose an advantage over gnome.

Having a Steam Deck, the only integration I see is the “Return to Steam” shortcut and a change to the logo.

When you run the Steam Deck gaming mode it bypasses KDE entirely and uses its own game scope compositor.

bitwolf, to linux in Why are there so many (rust) GTK apps and so little Qt ones?

Iced and Floem are the ones I’m seeing used on larger rust only applications.

bitwolf, to mildlyinteresting in Quarter was rejected at the laundrymat. Someone slipped me a token for a lazer tag franchise that went bankrupt in 1997
