And when they firsy came out they pissed off a LOT of people (including me) when they’d sell physical videogame cases with a piece of paper inside it with the key for downloading. I felt tricked when I bought games that were like this.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Everyone knows hot air rises. So, do we gain or lose weight when we burp or fart?
3·6 days agoFor weight loss purposes, you actually lose the weight by breathing. O2 in C02 out. You’re constantly shedding carbon. Does breath count as warm gaseous emissions?
When I built my NAS I intentionally bought the latest gen cpu, but kept it in to the 65W series with a GPU chip onboard. It’s an AMD Ryzen 5 7600 6-Core @ 3800 MHz. My coral usb does frigate and the integrated graphics chip does jellyfin just fine. I started with ssds, but half of them burned out pretty quick, so I replaced them with spinning rust. But, as-is it can run for an hour on my desktop grade UPS before it shuts down. My proxmox cluster is old laptops that mount an NFS drive from my NAS. So, yes, I took power efficiency into account.

Next step is requiring a subscription.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What is Radicale and how do I use it?English
9·1 month agoIt’s how you can copy/backup/sync calendar and contacts.
on my phone I installed davx5 which does the copying over to my radicale instance on my server. Then my server backs up my calendar and contacts.
When I get a new phone I can sync all of it over easily. Bonus points, google doesn’t have that data.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Popular self-hosting services worth runningEnglish
2·1 month agoYou can go semi-advanced mode by using regex to ignore certain line changes. Some sites require you to go super-advanced mode by using playwright running in a headless-v2 container rather than just plain text mode.
It’s nice being able to see the history of changes. Especially when there’s multiple rapidfire changes.
Maybe it’s a pretty graph/reports thing? I enjoy looking at the pihole dashboard and reviewing top blocked domains. I even look at the top allowed domains and add some to the blacklist.

25·1 month agoRecently discovered changedetection.io. It nicely filled the need I had. I have it watching a few static forum posts for updates that are communicated that way.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Can I use a Linux laptop to connect a Mac to wifi through an Ethernet cable?
8·1 month agoA lot of wifi routers have a bridge mode you can put them in too. Just grab an old or cheap one, would likely draw less power and be quieter.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•GrapheneOS can help you retake your privacy, right now. - Veronica Explains
172·2 months agoExactly, seems like this should be up to the consumer. The devs can say: pixels have best security, here’s a 2nd and 3rd option, here’s their pros and cons.
Because as much as I approve of privacy measures and security, my phone doesn’t have any lock screen. No pin, no biometrics, nothing.
I work from home, I don’t really travel, I have 4 children. Physical security is annoying. I want grapheneos for data security. I don’t have people trying to steal my phone, I do have people constantly stealing my data.
And without a non-pixel option (fuck google), I’m likely to go for to a competitor because, while their data security might not be as good as graphene, it is better than what I currently have.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•which library for a selfhosted simple matrix bot?English
8·2 months agoIf you don’t shy away from python, I just use the requests library most of the time:
homeserver_url = “XXX”
access_token = “XXX”
room_id = “!XXX”
url = f{homeserver_url}/_matrix/client/r0/rooms/{room_id}/send/m.room.message"headers = {“Authorization”: f"Bearer {access_token}",“Content-Type”: “application/json”,}
data = “msgtype”: “m.text”,“body”: “Question of the day!”,}
response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=json.dumps(data))
Alternatively I also have a bot I use in NodeRed connected to Home Assistant.
Double Alternatively, I’ve used AppRise successfully within various tools like ChangeDetection to notify me via matrix.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How long does it take for pregnancy to become noticeable?
4·2 months agoDepends on the girl and the number of babies you’ve had. If you’re on your 4th baby people will be able to tell sooner than your first.
For your first baby, generally it’s unnoticeable for everyone in the first trimester including the mom. Second trimester is probably pretty safe too, this is when you might start looking a little fat by the end, but not really pregnant. Third trimester is when the majority of the weight is gained, and the baby grows the fastest. In the last month of the third trimester the baby gains like a pound per week.

Games@lemmy.world•Why do you need a launcher? (asking older gamers actually)English
5·2 months agoDepending on how you make the game some launchers can make sense. You can set display options before launching the game. Back in ye olden times some games would launch by default in a set resolution which often made changing that in-game difficult as it would be off screen. Also makes your first time launching it a better experience than some low-res garbage. Also, without a platform like steam they can handle updates.
That being said, I don’t think most modern games need those functions. Graphics engines are pretty good at getting screen resolution from your os (not perfect). And platforms handle patches and updates.
Now they’re mostly there to gather metrics and shove ads in your face, and enforce drm.
You interested in home improvement? Buy the shitty flat, slowly fix it up the way you like, and if you ever decide to sell, it’ll likely be worth a little more.

0·3 months agoIt takes two split fiction
These two were the top two favs of my wife and I last year. Played it takes two on our steam decks, and split fiction on our PCs. One of them is older and handled it great. Both pcs run linux.
You’re probably right, but as a consumer all I saw was “LOL no disk for you, download game via steam.” And blamed steam.
