  • Since I can't see his back legs I kinda picture him as a bipedal blob with a tail. It was a lot cuter in my mind than my skills could produce though

  • The best thing I did was probably set up Obsidian Live Sync after hearing about it in selfh.st weekly. Compared to the Syncthing setup I had before it is so much quicker, much easier to catch sync errors, and won't drain my damn phone battery as much! The more things I can move away from Syncthing the better so I will probably be looking at Immich for my photos soon as well.

    On the management side, I've had my Docker stacks split across Dockhand and Komodo ever since a poorly executed move away from Dockge a few months ago. I finally thought about it and had the time to decide to give up on them both. I like some of the concepts of compose in a git repo and the fancier interfaces, but I just realised it was all over the top for what I need. I missed being able to simply SSH into a damn machine and docker compose up -d in an emergency. Compared to the constant deploy errors of Dockhand and the potential of scrounging application databases for in-DB compose data or attempting to deploy stacks from forgejo when forgejo itself is a stack deployed via git... going back to basic files is a blessing. Lesson learned!

    What that culminated in is all my stacks are now in Sencho (which clearly uses a lot of AI code sadly), but it was that or Dockge and I knew Dockge lacked a few things I wanted. The nice thing about Sencho (and Dockge) is that I don't need either of them because they are based around file-on-disk simple operation. I can cut it out of my setup entirely at any moment and not shed a tear. So much peace of mind leaving Dockhand. Now I just need to find a builder image or write a script to replace Komodo's build feature because I don't want to keep using it.

  • This is the same as gamers ranting about cosmetic prices while spending $100 a month on them. It does nothing. The company sees the balance sheets and walks away laughing while your words are ignored. Money talks and words are only worth anything when it threatens their future money streams.

  • I don't know what I will do with this information but I thank you for the wisdom.

  • None of this will mean much if we continue hastening global issues by contributing to climate change. A better economy built upon making the world worse for everyone in the coming decades is just kicking the problem down the road. Or in the case of many politicians, beyond their expiry date, which may be what they are counting on.

  • What am I doing wrong with Linux/NAS permissions?

    Jump

  • That sounds promising, I'll take a look at it.

  • What am I doing wrong with Linux/NAS permissions?

    Jump

  • I see. I've heard of umask but skipped over it since it still allows permissions to become out of sync in the directories, hence my falling back on cron jobs. It would help though, but my personal user acting in this directory would still create files as my_user:my_group, even if I am part of the media_group. Does that mean I am doomed to go into CLI and chown :media_group everytime I copy a movie into my movie directory?

  • A major Windows 11 UI redesign is coming, Microsoft is dumping legacy code for WinUI

    Jump

  • I hope they actually follow through and start making the OS less a gallery of 2 decades worth of half-assed redesigns and more a cohesive, responsive design. Dare I say their last actually decent UI update may have been Windows 8 which was also half-assed but at least it worked well from what I hear. Windows being a centrally controlled OS should be better at this than Linux and yet they aren't!

  • The Right to Leave: How W3C's New LOLA Standard Aims to Solve Fediverse Account Migration | Open Social Directory

    Jump

  • While suggestions like these are good, I don't feel that we'll ever have full account portability on ActivityPub. By nature of the applications, the only way to keep your data and your account under your own control is to run your own instance. This is something AT Proto got much better (on paper) with their separate identity servers. Being able to host your own data without the bloat of running an entire (for e.g) Lemmy instance is huge.

  • BC Conservative leader tells MLAs to start using the term 'Indian'

  • That's the first I've heard that it's outdated. All the offices and vehicles around here are branded as First Nations.

  • What if we do a "voters' strike" of sorts to force electoral reform?

    Jump

  • Absconding from voting is never a good strategy. I could see it doing something if you had a large cohort that all voted for a specific candidate or similar that was actually countable in the stats.

  • Microsoft responds to LG monitors installing McAfee ads on Windows

    Jump

  • I believe they were claiming it is installed the same as a driver, not that it's a driver in the literal sense. That was my understanding of it too, so is that wrong? Surely Windows looks for drivers, downloads them, and this gets installed alongside. If it is not listed as a driver then why is Windows installing it? Is this a Windows issue of giving companies the ability to install optional crap or is it a company issue of hiding optional crap inside their "driver" packages?

  • Mexico is solving its housing crisis. Why aren’t we?

  • Unrelated, but I see 55 plus housing commonly here. How about some 55 minus housing? (only partly joking)

  • I used it on Windows and remember a save backup section in game options, but it was a fully manual setup for every game.

  • Nvidia finally reveals what controls devs actually have for DLSS 5, and don't worry folks, there are TWO main sliders to control the AI filter

    Jump

  • It's also worth noting that game devs will be able to mask different objects in a game scene, changing the structural and tone intensities for each independently. Devs might, for instance, want to give some background objects the full DLSS 5 makeover but keep a lighter touch with the characters.

    This is about the only vaguely useful part of it. Just disable it for character faces. That said, why even use this garbage in the first place I don't know.

  • I consider "not launched in the country", "not purchasable without a shipping redirect service" and "doesn't work with half the infrastructure" as enough cause to label it as "unavailable".
