TeamViewer responds to security 'irregularity' in IT network
  • Oh wow! Thats gnarly. On that note, have you looked at rustdesk? Tried it this week and it runs great. Its also open source.

  • Is pixel 4a too old for a new phone?
  • tangential: I‘m using a oneplus 6 with postmarketOS but depending on your friend‘s it skills, it might not be ready for him yet.

    So far its very usable but I suggest someone must want to swim against the current and do things differently. One could say a „pioneer“ type would be ideal for this.

  • Ping pong players exhibit superior brain structure and function, study finds
  • „Simple“

    I agree that being active is important and good for you but depending on the circumstances its everything but simple.

    I aspire to move a lot but the day being this active becomes easy will he the day. :)

  • I told other kids about me contributing to Lemmy, and now some of them call it "that app you made"
  • Technically correct. :)

    Kind of how foss in general works as well. If you contribute anything, you‘re technically making the app.

  • Mobile version on linux phone

    The phone is an oneplus6 with postmarketOS. VoxeLibre runs on minetest 5.9.0 dev, compiled from source. I played for about 30 minutes and it cost about 20% battery. It runs butter smooth and has no input lag at all. Must be one of the best mobile gaming experiences I ever had. A little optimization would be great down the line but i was surprised how good this is!

  • How to fork a github repo to forgejo?
  • Fair enough! Thank you for the heads up. I will try and continue in that direction.

    The runners are very exciting but I still need to understand how use them.

  • How to fork a github repo to forgejo?

    Hi folks! I'm currently trying to learn a good workflow to fork a (say) github project and work on it on my forgejo. I have made forks and PRs in the past but I fail to see how to do it in this case, at least efficiently.

    I could of course fork on github and mirror the repo on my forge. That would include me putting my work on github instead of only making a PR on github. I would prefer forking directly to my forge and sending only the PR on github. On the other hand, if I delete my fork afterward, it was pretty irrelevant to begin with.

    How would you approach this?

  • Threads Self Migration Feature...
  • Yeah, awesome if threads make it easy to go from free to corporate without a hussle /s

  • Meta is connecting Threads more deeply with the fediverse
  • The reasons are plenty, they are laid out here:

    I‘m not a fan of reinventing the wheel so feel free to ask questions if you like.

  • What industry secret are you aware of that most people aren't?
  • The „you have to like people“ part took me nearly 20 years to figure out. I hate people in general with possible remedy for people who are nice. I‘m exceptional at managing people, I just dont vibe with them. This leads to absurd situations where everyone is happy, professionally but folks just hate my guts.

    So, I now work alone and am happy with it. :)

  • Sorry I can't do it.
  • Exactly my point. I tried installing it and it was great fun but under no circumstances is that "beginner ready".

    Sorry I can't do it.
  • Hi there, whoever suggested linux for your switch played a mean joke on you. Granted, arch works well if you know what you‘re doing, apparently. But no way it is a good starting distro.

    I‘m not sure how eldenring works on linux but most games run without problems.

    One little caveat is this: you need to understand that windows is a billion dollar product while linux is mostly community driven. It costs nothing, except many people donating their time. So I‘d suggest adopting a „its insane that hobbyists are able to build something like this“ view. Otherwise you‘ll get frustrated and will end up im privacy invasive windows territory again.

    If you want a more gaming ready distro, try pop os or bazzite. Good luck

  • How people manage to play and chat online with random people?
  • It doesnt sound dumb. Maybe its just not for you.

    I play minetest online and some folks I chat with, some I dont. Its a private server so peeps dont bother others.

    Big chat servers like on discord bore me because its mostly just trashtalk. Either lemmy or matrix, both are fine.

    Hit me up if you wanna discuss it. Have a good one.

    Federation seems to have broken down

    I'm experiencing some odd behavior. Lemmy communities on my server seem to have stalled (no new posts and or comments) since 2 days.

    I went ahead and upgraded lemmy to 0.19.5 and postgres to the current version but to no avail so far.

    .ml got banned by fail2ban but I set it on the ignore list now. any ideas where to start looking for the problems? I checked for the other big communities and they're okay it seems.

    I can of course start adding logs in here but I would love to know which service or log I should start with.

    Thanks for reading. Have a good one.

    Edit: outgoing federation works. this post made it to ml in seconds.

    Looking for new Site Admins
  • I feel like „site admin“ is a bit misleading. Then again, lemmy doesnt have a proper distinction between local and site wide moderators afaik.

    I‘d be interested to help with real admin stuff like docker containers, dns and firewalls. Let me know if that interests you.

  • Have you ever owned a rare or unusual car?
  • I really enjoyed reading your comment. You and share a ton of similarities in views and other things. Feel free to hit me up on matrix (link in profile). Have a good one.

    Hi there! (Appreciation and asking for help)

    I just found this community through the old one on world. good idea to move away to avoid further centralization.

    Minetest/Voxelibre appreciation I'm running a whitelisted minetest server for a couple friends. it is publicly listed and peeps can ask to join if they're so inclined. I really enjoy this game although or because I own minecraft and feel like hobby devs like me should spend their time on foss projects, not microsoft.

    Weird behavior Currently, I'm experiencing some interesting behavior: I'm in a jungle and due to thunderstorms, the trees caught fire. the simulation distance I suppose, the fire does not get put out by rain and slowly burns down all the things around me. Although it is raining every day.

    I tested this by going near the fire while it was raining and it gets put out.

    I think fire should either have finite lifespan if not placed on netherrack or at least lightning should only hit in the same distance as the simulation distance is at.

    Currently trying to judge if anyone else has this problem and considering if I should look for an issue/create one.

    Have a good one! :)

    What logo should we use?

    This community does have quite a couple of subscribers but so far we have no favicon/logo. What do you think we should use?

    Jeff? Bill? Elon? Some cursed „cousin“?

    The most popular idea will be considered. Still needs to be legally doable and somewhat represent the community of course.

    Happy hunting!

    Medieval Dynasty Game Files

    Hi! I'm knee deep into a Medieval Dynasty Playthrough with a couple of friends and as usual I feel the urge to use spreadsheets with this type of games.

    There are a couple of very cool resources out there but some are outdated and I dont want to search forever until I find one that is well maintained.

    Does anyone know if the prices of the items are stored somewhere in a readable format? If so, feel free to let me know where. I went through the files on my linux steam install but aside from some texts I havent found anything useful so far.

    Thanks for reading. Have a good one.
