[LTT] Young People Try a Mac from 1996!
  • I really enjoyed this one, as a modern Mac user who bought into the classic ecosystem a few years ago and ended up writing a Raspberry Pi Modem + BeautifulSoup adapter for the modern web this was quite amusing for me. Was surprised not to see a Dock considering they said it was running System 7.5, which I'm fairly sure had a "Dock" like extension out of the box.

  • This is a godsend!! Thank you so much!

  • Question to the community: would you like these YouTube videos posted here for discussion?

  • The ruthless forking of Terraform
  • Doing what’s right is always wrong if it’s against a large corporation. I’m grateful to HashiCorp for making Terraform, but I’m absolutely done with them as a company.

  • can be waved away by disclosure and a promise not to let it color your conclusions.

    I don’t think it’s ever been stated that the framework investment hasn’t lead to direct criticism of competing products. The disclosure is there to let us know that there is pre-existing bias in the upcoming review.

    This is similar to watching Mac Address and being pissed off that they have a bias towards Macs.

  • True, but discoverability on Reddit was much much easier, I’ve found this to be one of Lemmys weakest attributes so far. I’m sure it’ll improve over time or somebody will make a search engine based on the instance map over on GitHub.

    Hmm, that’s not a bad idea. I might give that a try at some point.

  • Alternative LTT Communities
  • This’d usually be something a bot would do. I use one over on !ltt@devops.pizza to keep an eye on things but I don’t let it post/comment as I want to encourage the community to actively post and not just lurk.

    But if posting news to all LTT communities is something the respective community members and moderators are happy to see, I could add that as a feature.

    One of the key differences between traditional social media and the Fediverse is the existence of multiple communities that share the same topic. You should have a choice when it comes to your community preferences so I wanted to create a list of other LTT/LMG communities on the Fediverse to help us all grow.

    If you’re aware of a community I’ve missed, please comment them below and I’ll update the post body.

    Fedora Linux is coming to Macs with Apple Sillicon
  • Okay, “media engine”. My mistake.

  • (New) LTT Video Error Handling Standard Operating Procedure (SOP)
  • Consider crossposting this to !linustechtips@lemmy.ml for wider community engagement as that community currently has more subscribers than here. Hopefully the mod over there is reasonable this time and agrees this is fantastic progress in the right direction.

  • Has anyone tried the new transaction automation? (shortcuts)
  • Can you give some more context around what this is? Happy to try and replicate if you can provide some steps.

  • Bazzite is a new Fedora-based Linux for Steam Deck and gaming PCs
  • Fedora is a tough one for me, on one hand I like the design principles of the OS, Systemd heavy unlike Debian / Ubuntu that still uses some old school init scripts etc. On the other hand, the association with Red Hat makes me want to steer well clear of it.

    Asahi Fedora Linux is likely the thing that’ll force me down this fedora shaped rabbit hole.

  • August 2023 Controversy Megathread
  • Thanks for this, I'll merge this into the main post soon.

  • Delete Cached Images
  • I too would like to know this, I ran LCS on one of my instances and the Pictrs data store jumped to around 10Gb. It’s not a big deal if Pictrs automatically flushes older content, but if it doesn’t this’ll build up significantly over time.

  • Fedora Linux is coming to Macs with Apple Sillicon
  • I really hope this has GPU support so I can migrate Plex over to Linux. macOS administration is a nightmare compared to just running K3s.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • Genuinely hilarious.

  • August 2023 Controversy Megathread

    Events I'm aware of:

    • Hardware Unboxed was upset by some statements made at LTX about repeat testing, Gamers Nexus picked up the story and posted a 45 minute video describing many flaws in the current LTT testing process.
    • Billet Labs sent LTT a Water Block for testing, the block had been specifically engineered for use with a 3090, but LTT decided to test on a 4090. LTT publicly stated that the block was was of poor quality, upsetting Billet Labs and the community for misrepresenting the product. LTT went on the sell the block at LTX without permission.
    • Ex-LTT employee Madison has made accusations on Twitter (I'm not calling it X) about incredibly toxic working conditions at LTT.

    Outside of these short summaries, LTT has released an apology video and suspended further video production while they work on fixing gaps in process and performing a full investigation into the claims made by Madison.

    UPDATE 2023/08/21: Added by emhl@feddit.de:

    • the dismissive response to the first two issues by Linus on the ltt forums also added fuel to the fire.
    • a recording of an HR meeting resurfaced where James made a distasteful comment

    So what kind of content is allowed in this community?
  • After my post got locked yesterday, I setup my own instance: !ltt@devops.pizza - feel free to use it.
