Just tried to create an account on fedia.io, which is the biggest of the mbin instances (at just about a bit above 4K users, so not THAT much), and it just could NOT take the registration, all i get is "429 Too Many Requests", after multiple tries. I suspect that says the instance is woefully underpowered for the traffic it's handling

But that's what the marketers are selling, "this will replace a lot of workers!" and it just cannot

The problem of course is that the vast mass of consumers won't do this, it's only us weirdos

That's because Steam/Proton has mostly solved this (with some qualified notorious exceptions), which used to be a real problem even just a few years ago, but not remotely as much these days; the meme is mostly outdated by now, I've lived both cases and it used to be a pain but these days? people are spoiled by Valve and many have never lived the OP situation (which is great news!)

Honestly Steam and Proton have solved like 90% or more of this issue, i was in this spot in the past for a long, long time, but Steam has made this work almost seamlessly for a great number of games

And then i got the Steam Deck and this went into overdrive

At this point i feel like Linux is a realistic option for a gamer, qualified of course (anti-cheat tech tends to break things, plus there's a few problematic ones), but we are at the point where you can buy an AAA title and be relatively confident it will run on Linux (check first though)

I hope this breaks the games on Deck so that people notice

It's exactly that same kind of person

Any background on why he didn't say the speech?

Tangential partial offtopic aside: Unless i'm misunderstanding, you're setting this up behind your home router and allowing it on your various devices using a VPN. Am i right? Any details, or even better, guides, on how to replicate this setup? I guess the DNS records on Leng are to be able to call services inside your home LAN by name instead of IPs, which is a nice quality of life upgrade.

Most did, but there's always people like OP 😅

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain

Troy Hunt, the Have I Been Pwned person, has a very informative analysis of the breach that was not a breach, turns out nothing actually "leaked" from Linkedin, it's a mix of scrapped and generated stuff

It gets worse

Clippy Reborn!

Their recent-ish AMA doesn’t show that they care about moderation much

Here’s a laundry list from one of the Beehaw people, and apparently the devs don’t have any of this as a priority

Dude had an anonymous birdsite account with about a dozen followers, all they did was retweet stuff critical of the government, and somehow the government identified him and sentenced him to death over this. How did they find this info? Twitter outright gave it to them, therefore they became accomplices in a death.

Seems to be VERY tech related.

VERY understandable, requiring a GPU would limit it’s application and spread, i hope a good GPU-less solution is found eventually
