nix allows for flakes which are 100% reproducible (ie. you copy paste a flake it would do the intended stuff only) , this make me realize that now we can have flakes for games like do you want inscryption , sure add this flake and this would install all dependencies and lutris etc. and you just have to link us to the gog-games.to / fitgirl-repack / dodi-repack variant (preferrably , gog-games.to since you can verify it with gog) (i have picked only the goat of gaming piracy from megathread) , imo this can give huge boost to gaming in linux and wine is literally really close to giving native performance and you wont even see the difference
the same logic can be applied to ms excel , powerpoint etc. but i dont see the point after using libreoffice (literally the best thing ever)
Hello fellow lemmy users ,
i was wondering whats the best file sharing protocol/app/website , tbh send.vis.ee seems to be currently the best to me but still i wanted your opinion here are things i found -
- Localsend
- ffsend
- croc
- webtorrent
- magic-wormhole
- using curl on 0x0.st or pixeldrain
- (anonfiles has left so thats sad)
- rsync / ssh
- onionshare
- ipfs
#from what i am hearing , magic-wormhole makes the most sense since they seem to be the most open standard of sharing files but still seems incomplete or the lack of information on such topic makes me feels wierd.
croc seems to have a lot of cve and magic wormhole passed that test from suse's audit. webtorrent seems to fit in a wierd niche and its implementations like file.pizza arent really that well built ( considering you cant send multi files over there)
i would prefer cli but gui's as well so that i can send it to somebody else , i would like foss protocol since we can build on that other apps as well , and earlier i used to use shareit which was so bad that literally the govt pulled it because of chinese concerns\ currently using localsend but warp (magic-wormhole)/warpinator is also looking good
yea no shit seeing 2 saber's was kinda dope also the robot (i forgot his name) who could wield 4 lighsabers
lol george lucas , i really liked maul but for some reason i liked qui gon more!!!!!
spoiler
the whole story could've changed if qui gon didnt die
anakin would've lived a happy life with padme anakin wouldn't have to life his last of life thinking he killed his wife and padme didnt had to die thinking that anakin's dead thus fulfilling anakin's dream
uhh i linked you the website source , no offense but its written there also i hate crypto so maybe thats why i am picking up on those guys specifically i guess
I dont understand why threat actors / hackers use telegram which obtains your phone number and not simplex or even signal for that matter
ull, Arkenfox, Brave SimpleX, Briar, Anonymous Messenger Onionshare Torbrowser Orbot or i2p alternatives that work Monero a privacy friendly Keyboard like Floris
yea but floris is lacking features .
speek sucks in my opinion , i tried it ,
tbh jami is the best app currently in the p2p messenging space
berty sounds good as well , its built on top of ipfs and weshgaurd
tox is good as well
(i have messaged briar and berty team regarding some questions and i havent gotten its answer , i will update you when i get the answer)
https://www.securemessagingapps.com/ if you see closely for session , it says that attachments are centralized in their servers in canada
session tries to promote their oxen cryptocurrency and lokinet which imo crypto currency are used by baiters to bait people into ruining their money
you dont understand what signal /molly is , do you ? they are centralized server and OP specificially asked not centralized server / server for that matter
matrix is good but it still need server , plus matrix.org takes quite a bit of metadata
jami's good but it uses turn server to verify your name
briar's bluetooth functionality can be violated plus no good ui/ux
cut my own hair - takes 15-20 min once a month, which is less time than I'd spend getting to and from the barber; it's essentially free ($20-30 for clippers, which I've used for dozens of hair cuts), Where i live they do it under less than a $ ( i am a male)
If you really want to live frugal i suggest piracy is the way to go but maybe your morals don't allow it.
they are technically allowed to .. so they do it . and i mean average iq of this world is 80-90 so i think they just download the 1st thing off playstore which is sponsored which is paid by showing them "ads"
we need more technical knowledge among young people instead of having them become a coomer or waste their life playing games (something that huanted me is this: https://futurism.com/the-byte/gen-z-kids-file-systems)
It's Alright but for me microcontrollers like the one you told me are out of way since i need to run most and foremost docker for things like jellyfin /adgaurd home etc.
I really Dont know I am Ok with running chinese boards and also https://pine64.com/product-category/rockpro64/?v=0446c16e2e66
the boards you are showing me are 80-90$ which to me is maybe a lot since raspberry pi prices have started to slow down as well
Plus some dockers may not work and jellyfin is saying its not recommended to run it on rasp pi so i dont know actually
Thanks for the suggestion (I am looking forward to other comments as well) Well , I like x86 in general but not for self-hosting maybe? i have heard that they are bulky and take a lot of energy
Hello , dear lemmy users , I am starting to really like self-host because they are really fast and mostly i use open source stuff (like lemmy /photon etc) which were sometimes slow but after self hosting it now on the pc i am on using , i really like it
Now , I would like to host some stuff like jellyfin , navindrome , photon , adgaurd home and just leave it running on a device in maybe near future (i can convince my brother to pay for it , after he gets his job maybe)
TLDR : I wanted to ask What's your favourite alternative to raspberry pi for simple self hosting or maybe possible near home automation
Edit: thank you all for helping me , I am starting to believe that i should look into using dell wyse or the likes which are meant to be used for hosting or a old laptop (since i dont own a laptop anyway , i just own a pc ) and since i run linux anyways , i am thinking of owning a laptop dual booting it with alpine (that has docker) and a simple minimalist os like hyprland on it just in case i need to travel with it (which to me seems very unlikely , I dont travel much so..) I am confused about it
Edit 2 : I am very new to self hosting so currently i would run stuff on my pc only (using portainer) , However when needed to buy , i am thinking of buying the cheapest thin client maybe a nuc or dell wyse
I am already trying searxng , shiori(bookmark manager) , portainer,freshrss , photon , froodle-s pdf tool which i have all closed except portainer currently I am also thinking of shifting to podman as well but cant find a good gui for it like portainer , (portainer really just blew my mind with its templates)
So Recently I came across stirling-pdf through this community only and i was wondering if something like this but for images exist
https://www.iloveimg.com/
(i wanted to upload image but there is smth wrong which i would look later into )
On Computer I am quite proud of How it looks friends! #HappyLinux
Hello dear lemmy users , I am a fellow linux enthusiast who found about a particular website which made this image I hope you like it , lemmy fellows :) I would post this on other platforms like reddit /hackernews with the body being you should use lemmy
I personally think 7th one is really cool
Here are all the photos i took about linux *(pls note these are 20 images , if you want people i can maybe delete this post since it may look spam and there are more images that you may like as well that you may like)
(you may have to scroll really much to see the comment section , i am sry for that)
(some of these also take pacman since pacman is part of arch linux utility which is linux and the distro i use , i tried to incorporate Linux tusk into it but i couldn't i would look into that later 😀 )
(i hope you enjoy)*

sorry as a teenager its really tough managing your language on an anonymous platform with very less moderations but i like the idea of a swear jar , but i would like to tell you something , i dont recieve any pocket money If i want some thing i can take money of the shelf but then i have to justify why and what i did with it its just good etiquetes and also i wouldnt want to spend my parents hard working money on a game that i could pirate to play just for the nostalgia ( i have played it once pirated) and if i would want to pay the developers i would really want to go through the donation route i have tried to reinstall my whole system , so lets see maybe if that makes it work :)
I think I uploaded a thank you note to the person who told me the steps , but the sound couldn't work , and I am sry if you feel like i am accusing people of bullshitng me It was just the fact that people were like :"Yeh , its ok , just run the game and boom it works with everything" which kinda pissed me I am once again sorry if I acted like a dumb child.
I do get that point , but I don't want to lie I am preety broke who lives in a third world country I am simply unable to afford such luxury of buying games
Yes , I used to do it Earlier but now i get that point after seeing the megathread my last game download from it was cult of the lamb which i then removed entirely infact i removed the entire windows and did a clean reboot and switched to linux because of being paranoid of viruses
Dear fellow pirates , for me downloading movies is the easy part but downloading games like portal 2 and inscryption which have native support but i still have to look for repacks from fitgirl and dodi because i think they are safe
0.) can someone provide me with what the bug is that i cant get sound in inscryption game from fitgirl repack in linux
1.)I know about cs.rin.ru and the goldberg emulator and clean files but i dont know much about them can someone pls tell?
2.) are the clean steam files 100% virus-free or can someone infect it as well
3.)How good are sites like torrminator which provide native linux support for games
4.)Can someone tell me how to please make the game of inscryption in fitgirl repacks have sound on lutris with wine?
i also like discuss.online and i would talk to their owner so that they can remove email requirement but till then you guys are the best!!
hello fellow sailers , hope you're having a nice day , a few months back i switched to arch linux because my computer has good ram but not that good gpu , but now i would like to play some og games like portal 2 , portal 1 , inscryption etc from fitgirl repacks and i have scoured through many guides but nothing just works , too complicated. can't there be a simple guide with preferably images or something like that (like a website /blog maybe?) I would really appreciate that since many of my friends may like to join linux ship but they are pirates like me as well who wouldn't be able to play games on linux. #Fitgirl-repacks,#Linux
