Good! In the end of the day we’re all human and we all need to eat when we get hungry. That’s just how our bodies work. You went out of your way to attend the meeting during what would normally be your lunch time, so I think it’s pretty much expected to have some lunch during the meeting. And sometimes we all need to devour a meal like it’s our last.
Yeah, I agree. I’ve wanted to get into home servers for a while now. The final push was me running a Valheim server for me and my friends on my regular PC, while I also recently got some old parts from a friend that had build a new PC.
I just needed to gather a few more parts that were missing (case, SSD and CPU cooler) and now it’s running like a dream. It’s some old-ass hardware: An i5 4460 with 8GB of DDR3 and a 250GB SSD. That’s a 10 year old CPU. Doesn’t seem like a lot and I haven’t put a lot of services on it for now, but it still runs surprisingly well. I’m currently running a Valheim server with often 2-4, sometimes 5 or 6 players playing at the same time, Adguard and Syncthing. And yet, only 2.4GB of Ram is in use, with often around/less than 10% CPU usage, maybe a little more when a lot of people start playing VH. The CPU temps are around 30-33 degrees Celsius today, and that’s only because summer is arriving. It was consistently around 25 degrees Celsius in the past week. Today I tried to add a Wireguard server to it, although I ran into some problems and I wanted to put some more thought into what OS to run anyway (It’s just Ubuntu Server for now as I just wanted to get the Valheim server to run for now).
I’m starting to get into an infodump, but long story short: You can indeed get really, really far with some very cheap hardware. I’ve only spend around 50-60 euros on it so far, by having some luck, patience and keeping an eye out for deals or viable hardware that people want to get rid of. You can always upgrade to something more powerful or more energy efficient, but if you just want to get into the hobby, you really don’t need a lot.
the owners of Tildes don’t seem to want them around. I’ve read in multiple places that they believe mobile apps go against everything they stand for.
It might not be intentional, but you’re spreading misinformation that could be prevented with a quick search.
The (sole) developerbof Tildes specificlly stated that Tildes will have an API and that they don’t want to discourage apps. Their philosophy is just that the official way of visiting Tildes should be the same lightweight website as the desktop. A solution that works on every device. To me, this makes a lot of sense. It fits the philosophy of Tildes, results in less code to maintain and ensures the experience is the same on every device.

The site is the main mobile interface, not an app
Tildes is a website. Your phone already has an app for using it—it’s your browser.
Tildes will have a full-featured API, so I definitely don’t want to discourage mobile apps overall, but the primary interface for using the site on mobile should remain as the website. That means that mobile users will get access to updates at exactly the same time as desktop ones, and full f
My thoughts exactly. Deadalic is an awesome studio with some of the best point-n-click games, an IMO underrated niche genre and some great other unique games. However, they are not the kind of studio for a games like Gollum. Every studio (and even every person working at that studio) has it’s own strengths and weaknesses. By utilizing that strengths and weaknesses correctly, you can make great games. It’s a shame they got a bad rep because they didn’t do that with this game.

Sounds good, I will check it out! Thanks for sharing!
I’ve been using yt-dpl + MPV + qutebrowser or ytfzf for a long time, but lately I’ve been using Freetube a lot on my desktop (which can also use MPV as an external player). Subscriptions are saved locally and can be exported in several formats. I occasionally export them, sync them over syncthing to my phone and import it on my yt apps on my phone. On my phone I mainly use Libretube, with NewPipe as a backup.
what a silly owl!
There is so much news like this coming from France lately. What is going on over there?
I played it for a while and was pleasantly surprised! I’m pretty sure I’m going to buy it at some point
I discovered the excistence of Bustin’Out on the GBA only 2 years ago. When I discovered it was an ancestor on Urbz, I had to play it! I played it through an emulator on my trusty old PSP, long after I had sold my GBA SP. I loved it! THe story and athmosphere were not developed to the same depth as Urbz, but it was certainly a very fun and welcome experience. More of the same in a positive way!
If I had to recommend a friend only 1 of both games, I would always recommend the Urbz. But Bustin’Out is great is you can´t get enough!
The Urbz: Sims in the City for the GBA (and also the DS).
This is such a hidden gem on the GBA and my favorite GBA game I had. Had great music as well!

Yeah, I agree. I love the idea of u/spez trying to explain to the potential investors why so many users of the investment are working together to actively disturb and destroy the platform as much as they can, while being way more effective than users of pretty much any other other popular social media platform.
That’s totally true and somehow it didn’t think of it. I think that is the closest equivalent of the Windows naming scheme on storage devices.
But on the contrary: I believe on Windows the drive letters ( C:, D;, etc) ARE used for recognition (by the user) while the drive is already mounted. But you can also mount them without assigning a drive letter, making it somewhat different than how it’s handled in Linux. On Linux, the (average) user usually doesn’t see stuff like “/dev/sda” unless they specifically look for it. At most, they will see the name that are assigned to the drive and it’s mounting point.
Hmm, makes sense but I’m not sure if that is possible right now. You could simply not subscribe to them use the feed of subscribed communities. Or do block them, but remove the block once most posts have been transferred.
You can block communities (“subreddits”) if you want to. On lemmy.world you click on your username in the upper-right corner > Settings > Blocks > Block community.
And if you’re also on Kbin: On Kbin there is a block button next to the subscribe button.
Linux has a very different file-structure, which is the way your files are organized on a system. It’s a bit weird at first, but once you get used to it makes a lot of sense. A second drive can often be found at /mnt/DRIVENAME or /media/DRIVENAME. But they show up in the file manager in a list anyhow.
That’s what I thought as well! I was quite surprised with what it still can do, so I’m really happy with it! Especially since I love giving tech a longer/second life when it’s still good. I always try to get the most out of it and this project is a great success :)
