CriticalMiss,

I remember researching the topic a while back. SimpleMDM seems to do it, but it requires paying Apple $300 a year. Luckily, Mosyle allows up to 30 devices for free.

CriticalMiss,

I am happy and enjoy every moment of life.

Me vs my ISP

So I was looking into getting port forwarding set up and I realized just how closed-off the internet has gotten since the early days. It’s concerning. It used to be you would buy your own router and connect it to the internet, and that router would control port-forwarding and what-have-you....

CriticalMiss,

This is a friendly reminder that NAT is not a firewall and should not be treated as such.

Thank you.

CriticalMiss,

And when they’re right, it’s usually addressed. I say usually because GNOME exists.

CriticalMiss,

I daily drive Hyprland too, there are some shortcomings with how the mouse behaves with XWayland but I don’t think it’s a Hyprland issue and Gamescope remedies that problem so overall, it’s a great experience.

CriticalMiss,

There were news about Ubuntu doing it too some time ago, maybe they realized it’s not feasible yet. I don’t follow their development as I don’t use those distros

CriticalMiss,

It was resolved by people not using it if they didn’t want to. Linux Kernel is still GPLv2

CriticalMiss,

Every change will bring it’s fair share of complainers, not much we can do about that. LILO to GRUB, SysV to systemd and now X11 to Wayland. No one is forcing your hand (unless you use a pre-packaged distro like Ubuntu/Fedora, in which case you go with whatever the distro provides), keep using X11 if you want stability, if you wanna dip your toes in bleeding-edge software and increase it’s userbase to show hardware manufacturers that their drivers need to be updated (I’m looking at you, NVIDIA) then feel free to mess around.

Eventually the day will come when Wayland apps will simply not launch on X11 and you’ll migrate too.

CriticalMiss,

If it’s just logic and stuff then not really. Most of the video’s game size comes from assets. Textures/npc etc.

CriticalMiss,

I don’t think so, GTA has a lot of pathing and logic, I think it makes sense

CriticalMiss, (edited )

I love vim, but it wasn’t always like this. When I was a Linux newbie one of the things that irritated me most is that tutorials aimed at beginners told readers to use vim, without explaining how to maneuver it. People, if you write tutorials aimed at beginners please use nano, even if it’s not your preferred text editor.

What phone do you sugest for your grandparents?

I got a task to buy a smart phone for my grandparents, they are not techsavy but they know how to use basic functions. Iam looking for an andoid because it has language pack i need. I dont need it to have lots of functions, onley a good camera and a big screen. Bonus points if it can be flashed with some kind of simplefied...

CriticalMiss,

I rarely watch anything in my native languages, the content we produce is bad, so I never needed anything beyond what public trackers offer and very rarely subtitles.

CriticalMiss, (edited )

I’m the occasional pirate, I don’t download more media than I watch and therefore never saw the appeal of private trackers. They have their perks, no doubt, but most of what I need can be found on the internet.

CriticalMiss,

I wouldn’t judge people like that. You don’t know what happened back then, there is a chance they grew up as a person or they were tight for money and took whatever job paid the most with their available skill set.

Hollywood to UK Govt: Investigating Pirates "Increasingly Difficult" * TorrentFreak (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Summary: A recent UK government inquiry into the challenges faced by the film and high-end television industry has recently received submissions from major Hollywood studios advocating for KYC (know your customer) rules for hosting providers, similar to banking regulations to identify money laundering. If adopted, this would...

CriticalMiss,

I think they push this pitch all over the EU, the UK one is the only one that hit news thus far I guess. Most people host in NL/France.

CriticalMiss,

I bought hosting from Russia in the past, I was never asked to kyc

CriticalMiss,

This won’t work… I’ll just host in Russia then, they don’t really care about US copyright violations

CriticalMiss,

No, all traffic is encrypted via SSL so your isp doesn’t know what you’re doing

CriticalMiss,

I understand that this goes against the nature of what signal believes in. But in my opinion the only way forward for signal is to license their code under the AGPL and offer the big tech companies that rely on their encryption to purchase a custom license. The other messaging apps will use signal’s protocol anyway, may as well make them pay the running costs.

CriticalMiss,

I like to use rutracker.org. The tracker is public but the search is behind a registration form. Based on my experience it has some content I was unable to find on English trackers. Additionally, InsaneZemRes (a no compression repacker, good if internet speed/bandwidth aren’t of a concern) uploads new releases to there instantly, so very comfortable if I’m looking for a game that came out recently.

In case I can’t find what I’m looking for on rutracker, torrentgalaxy.to is a good alternative. They have a lot of the RARBG torrents and I think that’s where most ex-RARBG users migrated.

CriticalMiss,

What I don’t understand is how an IP address used as an identity? If you have CG-NAT there’s a good chance you share your IP with 5-6 other people (even more possibly). Alternatively you can say I keep my WiFi open for guests so anyone can walk by my house and torrent on my IP (idk NL law but maybe the court will consider this negligence)
