It depends on the game. If the game doesn’t tie input handling to framerate, then yes, because your inputs will feel better.

Nah, I’m just diabetic.

Oh wait, I go to the doctor for that…

Reminds me of when I had a rogue ~ directory sitting in my own home directory (probably from a badly written script). Three seconds into rm -rf ~ and me wondering why it was taking so long to complete, I CTRL+C, reboot, and pray.

Alas, it was a reinstall for me that day (good excuse to distro hop, anyway). Really glad I don’t mount my personal NAS folder in my home directory anymore, holy shit.

The official self-hosted guide is actually quite simple and straightforward. I had it set up and going in a half hour or so, and that’s even with removing Caddy and using my existing nginx reverse proxy. It’s intimidating at first-glance, yeah.

That being said, the official self-host guide is also 5 months out of date. The alternative you linked requires jumping through a bunch of hoops because it’s just a small community of enthusiasts hacking together the current version of Stoat for self-hosting.

So I acknowledge that self-hosting current version of Stoat with voice is rather complicated and frustrating right now, but hopefully it becomes as simple as the official self-hosting guide eventually.

Yeah, their BYOD plan works great if they sell the phone you’re using. My Pixel 7 I got from the Google Store worked just fine with AT&T for two years before I upgraded. I just didn’t even consider whether they sold the device or not to be important to the functionality of the phone.

Not with AT&T. Bought a Pixel 9 Pro Fold on a huge sale from Google themselves, but because AT&T doesn’t sell it, they couldn’t provision it correctly on their network. Went through all the troubleshooting, they sent me a new SIM even. Finally I did my own research online, found a reddit post where someone talked to an employee on some internal AT&T team that said they probably won’t ever support it properly since they don’t sell it.

So that was frustrating.

I’ve always wondered what the use case for Gentoo-but-binary is. I’m sure there is one, I just can’t think of one.

Not a “conflict” per se, but I know Nvidia drivers had an issue for years where it would waste a lot of CPU cycles if no Nvidia card was detected. I think that finally was fixed last year, though.

Yep. My 64 gigs of RAM died in my old setup a few weeks ago, and instead of paying out the ass for replacement DDR4 RAM, I decided to pay out the ass for DDR5 RAM and upgrade while I was at it. Only did 32 gigs, because I really wasn’t using most of my 64 gigs (I thought). A few days ago, I ended up having to set up a swap file because a Rust project I was working on kept crashing VSCode while it was running the analyzer. What are we doing here.

Use an Arch distrobox and install from the AUR.

Bazzite has a Desktop image explicitly to cover your last issue. The SKU picker has a “Do you want Steam Gaming Mode?” question and explains that it’s intended for less secure single user/HTPC setups. If you say no, you’ll get the standard Desktop image with a standard user login like any other distro.

I have a similar docker/podman alias, except I pull first. This greatly reduces downtime between down and up, which is nice for critical services.

Strange, they do for me on Plasma Wayland.

IIRC, Samsung recently announced they’re moving to A/B partitioning as well.

I mean. I can’t because I defederated from Threads. But neat, I guess.

You absolutely can if you have every reason to believe it’s not firing a live round, like say, on a film set, where all weapons are supposed to be cleared with armorers/prop masters.

Text is copied to your instance’s database, but any images are hosted on the other instances and simply linked to. Worst case scenario, you get told to delete something that’s illegal in the country in which you host the instance, you comply, and everything’s peachy.

Edit: That being said, I’m currently hosting an instance for myself and a few friends, and it’s been smooth-sailing. Just make sure to require email verification or admin approval for new sign-ups (or disable them entirely) if you don’t want to be overrun with bots.
