I feel it’s also better for the GM. If the rest of the story lies behind the closed doors but the party had some issues deciding what to do, plain failing to pick the lock can kill the tempo. Not rolling at all sometimes might feel flat. “You opened the door but it made so much noise that a nearby guard is coming to investigate. You can hear their footsteps, you have a few seconds before they find you” - now we’re cooking with gas

despite how they don’t block the triad - but at least PieFed.zip allows individual users to do so, if they wish. And after they figure out how, and that there is a need for such, which nobody it seems will officially recommend to them

On piefed.zip a new user has hexbear, grad and lemmynsfw put in their account filter. And the welcome DM that is being sent includes info that we do this and how to manage account filters. So as long as the new users read the DM, they from the start have the info how to block instances for themselves

We don’t defederate often. I think it has been the selling point for some of our users. But PieFed offers much better blocking (compared to Lemmy at the time when I migrated), so we can have an instance for both - those who want everything, and those who don’t

And btw, effectively speaking we don’t do vote quota on PieFed.zip

Migration of user with joined communities etc works. But if you want to migrate whole instance, that won’t be so easy. Mainly because other instances will still think yours is Lemmy. I think that in the long perspective what would be the easiest would be to

1. create subdomain something(usually people put piefed here).downonthestreet.eu
2. set up piefed on it (basically a separate instance)
3. mirror everything from downonthestreeteu (I don’t know how it’s done but it was done for lemm.ee)
4. migrate your user

Technically it’s a migration to another instance but you’d keep your history etc

Very cool! I’m going to use it

Looking at https://cairo-otherscape-rpg.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders/project_updates I think it’s not out yet

I guess that would still be something like this

running pods: 98

Oof, my lab is lightweight compared to yours but I’ve been thinking of putting up a grafana for mine too. Would you mind sharing how much resources it takes to run and roughly how much storage does, let’s say, a month of data take? I know that it all depends on what one puts inside but just as a reference point

I think having a public feed for all space-stuff would be a good idea. In my private one I have:

• !astronomia@tardigram.com (Spanish)
• !curiosityrover@lemmy.world
• !issi@solarsystem.video
• !space@mander.xyz
• !space_astronomy@piefed.social

and there’s also @esoastronomy@mastodon.social

And I’m pretty sure it’s not whole spacefedi

Domain registrars do id verification now? I’m also in Europe and the mail is only for sending me the reminder to pay

What’s the context of this survey?

double post

Congrats!

Compiling your own kernel is very intimidating at the beginning and one learns a lot after plunging down that rabbit hole

After some time it gets pretty straightforward. Just don’t forget to enable the modules for your drive and filesystem (it has been a while, maybe that’s not needed anymore) and the rest you can always fix with another compilation

That part where you got stuck even after switching hardware: yikes. I wouldn’t expect that

Out of curiosity (I’m not going to try to change your mind, I just want to check a hypothesis): you’ve heard about the button in the past and this is your opinion of it ; or this post is one of the first times and the only context?

track different things, tasks, and who’s doing what and when. Think of inventory, shifts, etc

I agree that Nextcloud with Collabora might be your way to go here, but this line made me think: maybe kanban board would be more what you need? I use Nextcloud’s Deck for that, but even the devs say it’s not production ready and it is true. It gets slow with more cards

Other software like this. From my notes, not vetted, not checked, just gathered in case I want to migrate out of Deck. Should be mostly open-sourcish

Of course, NC provides a lot more, you could even have your own Meet (Nextcloud Talk), so maybe it’s a good idea to have it anyway

Also, there is OpenCloud. IIRC correctly there is some history between NC and OC but I don’t remember the details

EDIT: since you initially started with searching for a service, there are offers where you maintain the NC but the most technical part is done by a company. I remember Elest and Hetzner but probably there are more

I guess you might want to ask this question in one of the self-hosting communities (there’s a bunch that are active, so I’m not linking one)

But getting back to the topic:

• jellyfin needs very little
  I’m running mine on a laptop with 4 threads at 2.6GHz and on 8GB of RAM it was fine with a bunch of other stuff running
• OwnCast
  IDK but for personal use I’d expect to also have low requirements
• Minecraft server
  That part I’m not sure about. I’d expect it to be a bit more demanding
• play some steam games
  I understand you’ll be running those on another computer and only streaming via OwnCast, so that goes back to earlier point

I guess an SD card might be better. RasPis work from those for years just fine. Just don’t kill the power, power down nicely. SD cards are fragile on that

I also thought about running from RAM but I guess the transcription might be needing the RAM too. So that route probably depends on how much RAM there is available

Mount points in fstab

I think it’s because of the frame reaching half a mm or so above the screen and the battery cover opening up when I drop it.

I don’t know where and I don’t remember when but I’ve seen some investigation that phones with detachable covers and batteries survive falls better because those moving parts disperse the energy of the fall better, instead of all the shock going into the next stress point - the screen or the glass on the back

I don’t intend to overly nit-pick, but since OP said themselves they are new to this: Wine doesn’t translate the exe. It translates system calls from Windows ones to Linux ones. So to have an example: opening a file would be some system call in both systems. But, of course, different because the OSes are different. An exe would be calling Windows one. What WINE/Proton do is get that call and translate it into Linux system call, so that .exe can still open a file, as if it was running in Windows

As for OPs question: AFAIK when using dx11 you will still in the end be using Vulkan, just through DXVK (as this comment said, translates dx calls into Vulkan calls). Theoretically setting to use Vulkan in the game itself might have less overhead (no DXVK in the middle) but it’s a mixed bag in my experience. I think that Windows Vulkan support is just not yet there, so the in-game code for Vulkan is so-so.
I second this: you have to check on which setting each game works better
