Would it be OK if I will be that guy when ranting about NVIDIA Linux drives? Asking for a friend 😉

danielbln, in Platformer is leaving Substack for Ghost, an Open-Sourced publishing platform

Better host it yourself, because the managed version of Ghost has the lovely dark pattern that you cannot cancel your plan without them immediately deleting everything, no matter if your plan is still paid for for another few months or not. Really left a bad taste on my mouth.

RobotToaster, in Statement regarding the ongoing SourceHut outage

Cogent are useless.

feoh, in Don't be that guy.

Couldn’t agree more.

For what it’s worth I think Brett Cannon wrote one of the best posts ever on the social contract of open source and how Not To Be That Guy :)

snarky.ca/the-social-contract-of-open-source/

Should be required reading IMO for anyone ever on Github :P

Pika,

just spent a few mins reading it, definitly agree with you, required for any issue reporter

Fixed.

seth, in Don't be that guy.

Are you the developer for SMUI? Small world to see a username I recognized from another site. Nice-looking components! 👍

hperrin,

I am. Thanks! :) I built my email service, port87.com with it.

seth,

Oh that’s an interesting concept, I’ve been using username+label@gmail in a similar way for years, and missed it when I switched to proton

BlanK0, in [NEWS] Kakao is now going after everyone involved in Tachiyomi

Ah yes, what if several people fork the project? How are they going to send everyone to court? 😂

apersaud,

Well GitHub says 2.7k forks so they probably will go after recent/top contributors first or just file mass lawsuits

cbarrick, (edited ) in ListenBrainz - Track and share the music you listen to

Neat.

So this is like Last.fm, but run by the MusicBrainz folks?

PropaGandalf,

Exactly!

PsychoMan,

There’s also libre.fm as.anotother alternative.

Yes, it’s pretty awesome. And they’ve slowly been adding more and more features

otter, (edited ) in ListenBrainz - Track and share the music you listen to

Yes I know, a few months ago a post with the exact same title was shared […]

I think reposting after 7+ months is more than ok regardless :)

This is also any and all Firefox support queries in a nutshell.

“OMG THIS BROWSER IS SO SHIT IT ALWAYS BREAKS OR GETS SLOW”… “No I have not changed anything in ˋabout:configˋ, and what I did is definitely not the source of the problem!”… “Yes with a reset config it works fine, I don’t know why, your browser is shit!”

And it’s always the same people who do “hardening” and “privacy enhancement”, having fuck all actual clue what they’re doing but thinking they’re oh so smart. 😑

StrawberryPigtails, in ListenBrainz - Track and share the music you listen to

Nice! Thanks!

fievel, in Unexpected-Keyboard: A lightweight Android keyboard.

I use helium314/openboard on day to day basis, but the few times I use termux or have to ssh a linux box from my phone, unexpected keyboard is really awesome.

As someone who has used Last.fm for 19 years but lately looking for better music discovery options, I’ll give this a go.

PropaGandalf,

You can import all your data natively!

chrisbit,
@chrisbit@leminal.space avatar

That’s a big reason why I’m giving it a go! Currently importing page 1200 of 1800.

synae,

Definitely going to check this out when I get home.

Aside from last.fm, can it connect+import history from other services, like Spotify?

PropaGandalf,

Yes spotify is supported as well. Unfortunately Tidal isn’t. But if you are on linux and you are using Tidal you could download the tidal-hifi client which bas a listenbrainz integration or you could download the listenbrainz app which can sync data from multiple clients including all music streaming services, newpipe, odysee, …

isVeryLoud, in FINALLY! Worlds First Mid-Range Libreboot GAMING PC! GTA V - Max Settings - 1440p (Dell T1650 Mobo)

Does GTA V count as open-source now that the code leaked?

Killercat103,
@Killercat103@infosec.pub avatar

Best you’re gonna get is shared-source. Open-source requires you can redistribute said program with modifications. Therefore, you need a license explicitly granting those rights.

scrubbles, in Can this be replicated with opensource software?[p2p file transfer over thunderbolt, and extremely low latency Video and game streaming (no encoding)]
@scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech avatar

There was a waterblock was under NDA too… until he auctioned it off for profit and told them to pound sand.

Always downvote LTT now. Went from one of my favorite tech reviewers to the bottom.

haui_lemmy,

Same here. Got me deeper into tech before I started with linux. I was still a windows addict when he did the linux daily driver challenge.

I‘m really sad he‘s just one of them after all…

rufus, (edited ) in Can this be replicated with opensource software?[p2p file transfer over thunderbolt, and extremely low latency Video and game streaming (no encoding)]

I found this article from 2018: …kellner.me/…/thunderbolt-networking-on-linux/

And this from 2022: chrisbergeron.com/…/ultra-fast-thunderbolt-nas-wi…

Seems you just plug in the cable on Linux and you’re done. Low latency video can be transferred over network for example with gstreamer/pipewire and files with any file transfer protocol.

Artemis_Mystique, (edited )

RDP with low latency over thunderbolt? from the video it looks its new software intel has developed for windows, so its most likely proprietary. I was mostly thinking along the lines of using the technology to simulate S.L.I where half the frames are drawn by one pc and the other half by another

Also in the Article the data transfer speeds are in Mbps whereas in the video it is touted in Gbps

rufus, (edited )

With GStreamer you can build a pipeline you like, you don’t need to use RDP, you can send uncompressed frames plain over network like in the video. I’m not an expert on graphics processing. SLI or NVLink are (I think) proprietary parallel processing interconnects. But NVidia didn’t invent parallel processing. I’m sure there are other solutions available. Though, I somehow doubt those will help you because they’re generally tailored to other (HPC/datacenter/simulation) purposes and not for gaming. And I think they use something like Infiniband for that and not thunderbolt.

With the speed, mind the first article is 5 years old. And I’m not sure how the hardware in the second one compares to what Linus uses or if it’s even the same generation of Thunderbolt. It’s probably gotten way faster since. I can’t try because only 1 device I own supports thunderbolt at all.

I think transferring files over thunderbolt networking or low latency video is nothing new. It can be easily replicated. And setting up 2 gstreamer pipelines is just two (lengthy) commands. Replicating NVlink is another thing, though. We probably need an expert on graphics drivers to tell if that already exists or how difficult that would be to implement. Most people will probably just fit 2 graphics cards into one computer or buy one faster GPU because that is both cheaper and way faster than connecting them in 2 separate computers with added latency.

(MPI would be an example of an open standard to do parallel computing with arbitrary interconnects.)
