People have really weird usernames sometimes

True, but there are other benefits too. Bots can't crawl through your likes for example. Maybe you want a feature on lemmy or mastodon or whatever with anonymous polling? (ik masto has polls but for sake of argument) Maybe you're implementing anonymous polling into an app for a trade union that needs total anonymity even from admins? It's not totally unusual!

IMO it makes sense to do this at a platform level just because there's a unified implementation of obfuscation across all the fediverse for any platforms that want to use, rather than a bunch of unique solutions that would be duplicated effort.

quicksync should let the i3 handle jellyfin just fine if you're not going beyond 1080p for a couple of concurrent users. Especially if you configure the Nice values to prefer jellyfin over immich.

I'm not aware of the platform for the n300 because it might be worth the initial setup, and have some room to upgrade the CPU later if it causes trouble.

If OP is going for multiple systems, I'd definitely agree on making one of them a pure NAS and let a more upgradable system run the chunky stuff.

we need a debian name that initialises down to sudo rm -rf / --no-preserve-root

You should be fine with just Godot for now. Don't over-engineer things until you need to, or you'll just scare away potential contributors.

If you need to test portability, try spinning up a VM or a second system and getting the project running on that new system. You can work out the issues from there.

A final thought: one method for open sourcing commercial games you may want to consider is separating the assets and engine into multiple repositories, with a restrictive (paid) license for the former. The engine can then be openly developed by owners of the game.

Of course, I'm gonna support anyone who open-sources the FULL game but it's worth considering if you're thinking of this as a hobby project or a commercial venture.

the picture on the right isn't demonstrating an engine. They simply use renewable energy to power the fans that suck in the air.

Doesn't change the fact that industrial carbon capture is a scam, and most of that captured CO2 is later released back into the environment to help extract oil from old wells.

Hey now, what if they want to run the UAT app on their machine once every 8 to 12 months?

Your first mistake was not spotting the DuckDuckGo logo in the corner ;)

best argument for making pluto a planet yet

If france is anything like the UK, I'm sure there are many ways for the capitalist class to exert influence over their choice of candidate.

I mean, if you count the (registered) non-voters, which I think is more than fair considering the fact that Harris and Trump only represent a fraction of the (electorally viable) politics expressed in the US, Trump only scrapes about 46%.

The American political system has been designed to disenfranchise as many people as possible. Some ways are overt, like disenfranchising and deregistering black, ethnic, and imprisoned citizens (the latter don't even count towards that 54%!). How about the ways democrats and republicans explicitly outlawed "third" parties such as PSL, Greens, Libertarians on some state ballots?

Less overt ways are how most of the American electoral process is carried out during the working week, with zero affordance to workers to vote unless by post (inherently less secure) or by the altruism of their bosses. Disabled and elderly people are simply ignored if they wish to vote in person.

Then the final way Americans are disenfranchised is the simple act of alienation of the political class from the working class. No matter who won in November, most of these crises would be playing out in some form.

Elon may accelerate some of the rot, but oligarchs have had direct control of the American political system for its whole existence. American bombs would still be raining across the middle east, the Ukrainian war would be unjustly spilling blood in the name of empire, abortion would still be illegal across most of the US, and the govt would do nothing to challenge spirally costs of living for workers.

"can i run the government?"

yes, just place your head through this hole and we'll pull the big lever that makes you god-king

most paedophiles are cis men. Cis women paedophiles absolutely dwarf paedophiles trans people even when accounting for population.

It turns out, people who violate others don't need to go through years of doctor's visits and dehumanizing bureaucracy to breach someone's boundaries.

It's just the same fascist projection repeated ad nauseum because it works. You immediately have to go on the defensive and tiptoe around the taboo subject of paedophilia instead of actually challenging their assumptions. Anything less gets you accused of accepting child abuse, which is just the first step repeated again. By the time you've even addressed the claims, anyone worth reaching out to has logged off and the fascists have inched closer to the levers of the state.

It never was about paedophilia, or rape, or abuse, or sports. It's about exploiting emotions and appealing to a constructed idea of "common sense" that can tie you up in its endless tendrils so they can ignore you and dehumanise you more efficiently.

I get this is obviously intended behaviour on part of actpub but I'd love for there to be a pseudo-anonymous voting system too. Maybe an option to hash user credentials when added to likes to ensure that they're unique whilst obfuscating the original user.

If the Nvidia card of equal performance is measurably faster you can stick with AMD but realistically there isn't much pain with Nvidia. Most distros integrate the drivers fine enough.

I'd get at least 2 drives for dual booting since a linux/windows update can mess with the bootloader. You should be fine otherwise since most Linux stuff works out of the box - If you need any reassurance just search the specific part (motherboard, cpu, etc.) with "linux" in the search terms and hopefully you'll get some info.

In my experience, though, I've never had hardware issues on desktop with Linux. It's usually laptops or bleeding edge stuff that takes a couple months to get ironed out.

you can, but it'll be the distilled versions that are significantly less impressive.

Newer versions also introduce memory mapping so they're technically only bound by your storage capacity (but they're way slower in practice).

my laziness does though! ill keep that service in mind though :)

I spent far too much on my domain (£3.86 for the year) to change course now!

i use nginx proxy manager but im barely getting by. Theres zero useful documentation for setting up custom paths so everyone uses subdomains. I ended up buying my own domain just so i didnt feel guilty spamming freedns lmao.

Ive got a basic workflow for nginx proxy manager now so this isnt super useful but good god that's exactly what i wish nginx was.
