I'm currently using Mission Center, which is also really good. One of these should replace GNOME's system monitor tho because it honestly kind of sucks.

It's not that you're missing a font but rather that your font is missing those symbols. They're not just regular letters. Here's what it should look like:

What's different about Fennec on F-Droid? That's what I use.

I'm Gen Z and I still know all this stuff because that's just what I'm interested in. I don't think it's a huge issue that those things were made simpler for the average person and that they don't know how it works. It's not like you can or need to know everything.

1337 is fine for most stuff, I think. Private trackers start to make sense when you want to automate downloading shows and movies but if you just wanna pirate some game, you'll probably find it on 1337 with a ton of seeders anyways.

Yeah, I voted for the Pirate Party but I'm probably gonna vote for Die Linke (eng.: The Left) next election

I managed to convince my brother and a friend of mine to vote for them. This is really disappointing. Over half the votes in Germany were for right-wing parties this time, over 16% were for the right-wing-extremist party AFD. Germany really wants history to repeat itself ig.

Especially since you oftentimes can't tell at all from just a picture. There's cis woman that look more like a man than some trans women.

If it's not available as an application, you should probably look into docker compose

What I'm using is Text Generation WebUI with an 11B GGUF model from Huggingface. I offloaded all layers to the GPU, which uses about 9GB of VRAM. With GGUF models, you can choose how many layers to offload to the GPU, so it uses less VRAM. Layers that aren't offloaded use system RAM and the CPU, which will be slower.

Some government should finally grow the balls to reform copyright, it's insane that basically the whole world uses this broken system that, among other things, makes archiving illegal

From what I can tell, changes are just uploaded immediately. I think If someone adds wrong data, another contributor can revert it.

15 games for $70 are enough to save $1000, which is definitely enough for a good gaming PC. After buying a PS5 and the cheapest PS Plus subscription, paid yearly (cause that's the cheapest option per month) for a little more than 8 years, you're also at $1000. With the most expensive PS Plus option it would only take a little more than 4 years.

They have a bigger catalog? I kinda assumed that Spotify had the biggest catalog by far because they're the most popular one.

In GNOME you just need to log in with your Nextcloud account in the system settings and it will add it in the file manager

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

It definitely should be. I thought that the API just didn't support it but apparently it does.

From what I heard, they didn't pay that themselves but they filed bankrupcy or something so the government payed it for them

And now they changed the name to HyperOS (my dad has a phone with it installed and is constantly complaining about it)

I really love GNOME but the developers keep doing shit like this and I don't get why. Their reasoning for why they won't allow custom accent colors and only predefined ones was also stupid and then they just said that if people keep asking for custom colors, they won't implement it at all.

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

The reasoning for only allowing predefined colors was that, apparently, developers need to be able to test against every color and that Android's Material You is a total mess. I disagree with both of that, Material You seems to be working quite fine (I've also made apps myself) and I don't get what developers would need to test with accent colors. I couldn't voice my opinion tho cause then the whole thing would've been canned.

Nice demonstration of why mastodon's dominance is problematic

See the conversions here:
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/4628
and
https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/federating-the-content-of-posts-note-articles-and-character-limits/4087

AFAICT, mastodon's decisions, which are arguably problematic (on which see: https://lemmy.ml/post/14973403) are literally trickling down to other platforms and infecting how they federate with each other as they dance around mastodon's quirks in different ways.

It seems like masto is ruining "the standard" with its gravity.

@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Isn't there a group of people now that's working to improve the ActivityPub spec and actually define things so applications don't implement it differently?

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

That's not what I meant. I read at some point that there's a group of people trying to build a wiki or something, so others, who want to make fediverse software, can look up best-practices and the like. They also wanted to make demo software to test the federation against, so Mastodon doesn't have to be used for that.

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

That's kind of what I meant too, if there's a standardised and correct way to implement things, that's how projects should implement it instead of trying to do it the "Mastodon" way

Rabbit R1 is Just an Android App ( www.androidauthority.com )

See, it turns out that the Rabbit R1 seems to run Android under the hood and the entire interface users interact with is powered by a single Android app. A tipster shared the Rabbit R1’s launcher APK with us, and with a bit of tinkering, we managed to install it on an Android phone, specifically a Pixel 6a....

Apps can absolutely listen for a wake word tho

It's not part of Android and not even made by Google

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

That's just personal preference tho. I don't personally like it either but that's part of the reason I use GNOME, I think that looks absolutely great. Great thing about Linux is that you don't have to use KDE Plasma or GNOME or whatever other DE, you can choose what you like the most.

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Ok and I disagree. Aside from Android, I think GNOME is the best looking OS/desktop in general. Don't act like your opinion is the universal truth.

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

No, I just stated that that's what I think. You're free to think that all Linux desktops look ugly but ir's not a fact.

On my phone the difference is literally the video being unwatchably slow with Google's AV1 decoder and perfectly fine with VLC's

Maybe you just have a faster phone than me or your phone has hardware decoding for AV1
