“avoid building a PC right now” is advice I’ve been following since 2017

And honestly yeah. I guess at this point if you can afford it, just pull the plug whenever, it’s always some bullshit going on the PC Market anyway.

What I see inside the headset after setting the game to 25% Render scale FSR Ultra Performance Lossless Scaling 5x framegen:

Do you have a TV in the same room as your PC? Or maybe have you connected it to your Living Room?

I’ve setup a Android TV image, installed Jellyfin and SmartTube.
Paired with a cheap bluetooth remote, it makes a pretty sweet media consumption setup for the couch.

Now obviously, you don’t need Waydroid for this at all, you could use native applications but

• The native Jellyfin app for Linux is just a wrapper around the web UI, so you need a mouse to use it, making it annoying to interact with from the couch
• You can use Kodi with Jellyfin plugins, but the default Kodi skin sucks so you’ll find yourself taking a loooot of time configuring a third-party skin before you’re happy with the UI
• You can get browser extensions that trick YouTube into loading their TV interface, but the stock YouTube TV UI sucks compared to SmartTube

So yeah in the end I’ve found this setup to be my favorite “10-foot UI” for media consumption yet.
You turn your desktop into an Android TV box except it’s the fastest you ever used and it has 0 bloat.
Only thing it won’t do is full quality streaming from Netflix or other streaming services because DRM, but I don’t really care about that.

To add on to this, I’m pretty sure Ly changed their service, I remember seeing a message about it during my last system upgrade and having to enable the new one, though annoyingly it seems they didn’t mention it on their release notes, only during the update message.

Anyway, from the wiki

Two steps are reqired to start Ly at boot. First make sure to enable ly@ttyX.service, then disable getty@ttyX.service where X stands for a number from 1 to 6.

The backlash is over the CEO’s comments of “evolving into an AI browser” instead of the current implementation

Go look at that Lisp kojumbo then tell me Rust is ugly.

(defmethod wake ((object magic-packet) address port)
  (let* ((payload (encode-payload object))
         (size (length payload))
         (socket (usocket:socket-connect nil nil :protocol :datagram :element-type '(unsigned-byte 8))))
    (setf (usocket:socket-option socket :broadcast) t)
    (usocket:socket-send socket payload size :host address :port port)
    (usocket:socket-close socket)))

Actually unreadable.

The 8BitDo Ultimate Wireless 2 also only received full Steam Input capabilities after a couple firmware updates to the Controller and 2.4g dongle.

Of course, this is just what Firefox needs fixing long standing issues, catching up to web standards, process isolation on mobile AI!

I suppose RTX Remix is what they’ll focus on going forward?

managed using Ansible (even Windows)

Is that any good?
I saw it once on a search result, went 😱🫣 and didn’t look again…

use what the bossman wants at work.

Yeah.
Thank the gods for Modern Windows Terminal, VSCode and PowerShell.
Now if only someone at Microsoft makes the Virtual Desktop Switching not be slow as balls and makes the Tabs in Explorer suck less, it starts to resemble a sane environment.

With each passing day Vaxry seems closer and closer to re-implementing the entire userland, I don’t know how he avoids burning out…

DuckDNS was resolving slow as hell for me so I ended up picking up a cheap domain from Porkbun, they got API access and it seems most of the ddns tools support them too

I was thinking the same 😅
So far Qbit only doesn’t have it, but a feature request is open

They don’t even need to be vocal, sometimes they’re just sitting there and I go “¿¿¿QUÉ PASA???”

I don’t even speak Spanish man

I don’t need images since Jellyfin handles all metadata, but yeah FLAC and some others should definitely not be there

TL;DR: Don’t open .lnk files.

Here’s a list of blocked file names I’m using on my Qbittorrent. Contains executables and other junk I don’t want getting downloaded, maybe y’all get some use out of it too:

Nowadays I see my friends whittle down 90 photos into 5 for a Instagram post and ask if they’re doing too much

The AUR package for Cisco Packet Tracer is borked on Arch, so I tried out Distrobox for the first time, spun up a Ubuntu container and set it up there.
Worked great, I’m quite impressed!

Feels like the best meta for console purchasing is to only buy every other gen. I imagine the Sw2 is a blast for someone who didn’t have the 1 and now gets to play all those games at an improved quality/framerate
