You're defeatist attitude, and being so readily willing to give up your rights and protections, is disturbing to see.

Metaphorically speaking, you don't have to suck corporate penis automatically. It's okay to push back, even if you fail, at least you can look at yourself in the mirror the next morning.

Believe more in yourself, and of those other citizens around you. Don't give in to the despair.

Safe Harbor laws say otherwise. And Law trump ToS.

And I do believe that licenses will be enforced at some point, right now we're still in the Wild Wild West portion of things. Doesn't mean I don't want to lay down my markers now.

Also, I specifically want to make sure my comments are available for training for open source projects, which is what the license does.

I want to steal that footer

Here you go...

Your footer rules, don’t let them haters win!

Thanks, I appreciate the support. And don't worry I won't. This isn't my first rodeo with those who don't like it. I just wish there was more moderation on Lemmy to combat it, so I can spend more time just interacting with others on posts content itself.

My point was just to say that while I'm sure there's good and decent human beings who may disagree but be able to debate issues online with each other, there's a whole other bunch that would rather just see things burn, if it doesn't line up exactly to their personal belief system, and that makes it problematic for someone to expose their inner issues to everyone else, even when they desperately need their help.

And that's before throwing in conflict AI bots, and astroturfers trying to generate activity, that just pollutes the waters even more.

can Internet strangers do anything to help?

Thank you for asking, sincerely, but if Internet strangers tear into me for just having my comments have licensing footer text, there's no way I'm going to start stating any of my real issues that I'm dealing with, for them to judge.

Either involuntary AI generated pornography is wrong or it isn’t.

Agree. Laws have to be applied evenly, or else they are not Laws.

It's less biblical than "Removed from existence by the originator".

they’re absolutely not separate things given how age and cognitive decline are correlated.

Of course, degradation comes with age, but when I say they are still separate, what I'm saying is the degree of degradation is not exactly the same for every human being, but people judge ALL older people as having the same level of severe degradation, and that is Ageism.

Bernie is a proof of what I'm saying, that not everyone degrades at the same amount/rate over the same amount of time, and it is possible to have elderly people that are very sharp-minded and very capable of doing the job, plus having the wisdom of surviving those years and the knowledge they built up from doing so to be beneficial to the rest of society.

The prejudice of Ageism really shouldn't be justified. Anyone over a certain age shouldn't just automatically be thrown away, there are younger people who could have mental illness that are not capable of doing a job, so age does not directly relate to capability, physical and emotional status of the brain does.

I don’t think AMDVLK is even installed by default with Fedora.

From that link I sent you it seems like it has to, because it's the low-level driver, and then RADV is a user space one that calls into it.

That's basically what I'm asking you about, if I'm understanding you correctly, you're saying it's an either or, but that other comment that I linked you states that they're both needed, one is system level, and the other is user space level.

I mean, its just a ctrl+c and a ctrl+v. 🙂

The default driver used by Fedora is RADV.

Alright. I remembered them switched around, but there was a migration a year or two ago from one to another, default wise.

Help me with >THIS< then?

This suggests that both (most/all??) are bundled, and you could even run one program in one driver and another program with the other driver.

This was mentioned in that post/thread as well ...

Also if you use AMD card RADV is the best for gaming and it's the default for most distros so it's an out of the box experience

Its also mentioned that environmental variables can be set at runtime to switch on the fly (at program startup) which is used. I just don't know if Proton does any of that for you under the covers at startup or if you have to manually add the parameters to the properties for the Steam game to force it to use another one.

Bummer. And I had such high/good thoughts about the Netherlands.

_{This comment is licensed under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0}

You’re missing my point. AMD’s official Linux drivers are ALSO garbage. Try it. Go install AMDVLK and check how well games work. You’re almost certainly using RADV, which was not developed by AMD.

I'm using whichever one Proton/Steam uses. I'm assuming its AMDVLK because its the 'official' one. I think I remember RADV being switched away from in Proton a year or two ago, but don't hold me to that. I checked my enviromental variable "AMD_VULKAN_ICD" but didn't see it set to anything.

Whichever one I'm using, I get 120fps on my 3D games (playing No Man's Sky and/or Baldur's Gate 3 on the second monitor while typing) running them through Steam/Proton without a hiccup. Never a problem.

lol! That nails it right there!

It looks like the Eternity client doesn't support subscript?

Don't know what to say, my account is on Lemmy.World, and that's their instructions on how to format one's comments. /shrug

In the past (tenish months ago) I heard this same issue, and I tried removing the subscripting, which made the footer text the same size of the rest of the text, and then I was getting people complaining about my footer text being too large for a footer. My hope was that ten months later, all clients would support subscript fonts/text.

Honestly, at this point I'd suggest you talk to the devs of your client, to support subscript font/text.

Trying to figure out what kind of ‘buddy’ vibe they are trying to go for here, Frodo and Samwise, or Ren and Stimpy.

Gonnorhea and syphilis.

True that. Best to nuke it from orbit, just to be sure.

Because.

_{This comment is licensed under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0}

Nah, I think it’s neat as well. Lemmy would be more boring if no user had idiosyncrasies.

Kind of a sad state of affairs for us all, that wanting to license your own content would be considered an idiosyncrasy, but I get what you were trying to say. 🙂

Hell, I’ve even tagged you with “CC BY-NC-SA 4.0” in my Lemmy client -

Well I'm not the first to use it, I learned to use it here from someone else, but open source licensing notoriety is something I can live with. 😜

which means I will confront you if you ever stop doing it.

Honestly it would be me just leaving Lemmy (again) if the harassment gets to be too much (Edit: Example: https://lemmy.world/comment/15320340).

But I'd rather be here than Reddit, even with the lesser moderation that happens here.

I do appreciate your support, thank you. 👍
