Is SteamOS a future default for handhelds?

Jump

  • I honestly think it's just because most people have nvidia and steam on linux and nvidia don't work well together and linux and nvidia and just nvidia in general. It works enough but is not a smooth experience. Maybe once the open source drivers are fleshed out more it'll be better

  • Linux, currently, cannot handle everything Windows can unfortunately.

    I mean it could, companies just don't port their software because there's not enough market share to justify it. And there's not enough market share because the software isn't there. and the software isn't there....

    • Are you replacing Reddit with Lenny?

    Jump

  • yes. I can't understand why anyone wouldn't

    • Does it feel like the fediverse is exclusively used by older tech nerds?

    Jump

  • Probably because tech enthusiasts are the only ones that care about their privacy so they use open source alternative before anyone else

  • hoard them. I have a stack of like 10 hard drives and 4 laptop hard drives. If I need one I move all the files off of it onto another.

    • What do you enjoy in life?

    Jump

  • Having a few beers and watching a fire burn or riding dirt bikes or mountain bikes. Those are my two happy places

    • Is Lemmy THE reddit alternative for you? Are you thinking about moving somewhere else?

    Jump

  • I've been wanting to move to lemmy for a while it just wasn't active enough so I stayed on reddit. Fuck reddit and fuck proprietary software

    • I think the average person just simply doesn't care about their privacy.

  • how do you think we got here (gestures all around) in the first place

  • Switch to Linux and you won't have to deal with it

    It doesn't have Linux support, like most things 🥹

    • Is it feasible to use cephfs for /home?

  • OpenAFS

    Never heard of it. I'll look into it

    • France passes bill to allow police remotely activate phone camera, microphone, spy on people

    Jump

  • It bugs me that people will bitch about privacy all day but won't do anything about it. Most people just go

  • Okay after looking around a little bit it seems LDAP and NFS is the way people usually do it but that's online only. This guy recommends against it. Then This thread mentions LDAP with NFS again but I'm not sure if NFS will work. We have laptops and might not be connected to the internet. I might say f it and go way, way, way overkill cause why not. Worse thing that can happen is I learn something. I hope it does work

    • Fedora's telemetry is planned to be OPT-OUT

  • It's still a proposal if you have more to say about opt-in/opt-out specifically they made a new thread to discuss it here

  • On Endless OS, applications use a D-Bus API (via a small C library, eos-metrics) to record metrics events locally on the device. This API is implemented by a system-wide service, named eos-metrics-event-recorder or eos-event-recorder-daemon (no, I don’t know why it has two different names either), which buffers those events in memory, and periodically submits them anonymously to a server, Azafea, which ingests them into a PostgreSQL database (after a short layover in a Redis queue). If the computer is offline – often the case for Endless OS systems! – events are persisted to a size-limited ring buffer on disk, and submitted when the computer is online.

    From https://blogs.gnome.org/wjjt/2023/07/05/endless-oss-privacy-preserving-metrics-system/

    Fedora says they intend to deploy endlessOS's metric system

  • I used to only use KDE or KDE plasma with i3 but after using fedora I've fallen hard for Gnome and the design philosophy of the project.

    • FOSS alternative to Discord?

    Jump

  • Been checking out matrix clients and so far Cinny looks and feels closer to discord and fluffychat is pretty good to. Both work better then element in my experience
