Gaming is fine, I haven’t noticed any issues but I have to admit that I’m a casual gamer at most. The monitor supports FreeSync and refresh rates up to 165Hz.

I haven’t compared VA to OLED yet, but the latter costs at least twice as much where I live. For me personally, I don’t think that’s worth it. My previous monitor was a Samsung CF791 with Quantum-Dot but honestly I find the iiyama to have nicer colors. That’s highly subjective of course and the CF791 was released roughly 10 years ago, so take this with a grain of salt.

I’ve been using VA Panels for a long time because of that IPS glow. My current main monitor is a iiyama GCB3480WQSU-B1 and I’m pretty happy with it.

I mean, calling out Musks hypocrisy is not a bad thing per se, but is it really news?

At the end of the day a lot of people choose to remain on a platform that got bought by an gigantic asshole, who can now do whatever he wants with it. That’s how it works and being upset about it just shows that many users are either naive or delusional. Twitter can’t be saved, there’s nothing left.

Combined with the fact that most Lemmy users probably know about this and already chose alternative platforms a long time ago, articles like these rarely cause more than a shrug, at least for me.

But hey, if it get’s a few more people off of twitter (especially like large institutions as you mentioned), I won’t complain. As time passes I just tend to think that everyone who still stays on Twitter maybe belongs there.

I have an offsite NAS where I run the Restic REST server as a docker container. I connect to it over Nebula but you could also use a traditional VPN, Tailscale, Headscale, Pangolin or whatever.

Works like a charm.

Good.

Interesting, I didn’t know that. Thanks!

Uhhh, I have always used Docker for Home Assistant with no issues? That being said, I’m no HA power user at all - so maybe you could elaborate about the limits you’ve encountered?

I’ve recently listened to a podcast with the german astronaut Matthias Maurer where he discusses this question - What exactly makes you an astronaut?

He stated that there are several definitions, mostly based around altitude but if you want the European Space Agency to call you an astronaut you also have to fly around the earth in space at least once. So by ESA definition, Katy Perry would not be an astronaut.

There’s cynical sarcasm and there’s “I guess Hitler was right then ¯_(ツ)_/¯”. I’d say the latter is just fucked up.

Are you even listening to yourself?! A genocide is never “correct and justified”, which is the whole point of this post. Your comment makes me sick.

I think them being 9th graders makes a bit of a difference. A big part of doing shit like this could be puberty-driven edgyness. This ain’t an excuse of course and the scary part is that they went to Auschwitz, saw what happened there right in front of their eyes and still decided to go through with their abysmal photo, no matter if it’s for “fun” or a thought-out political statement.

Makes me wonder what kind of dehumanizing right wing propaganda they consume daily and what their social circle looks like, if they think acting like this is okay.

jfc how detached from reality do you have to be to make far right salutes at Auschwitz? Scary.

I’m from Germany and all of this fancy matrix dynamic adaptive stuff doesn’t change the fact that I get blinded by bright flashy LEDs every time I drive at night.

I was recently reading a lot about these because I wanted to use three Lenovo M920x for my homelab as virtualization hosts with Proxmox.

The really cool thing about them is their low power usage, that you can easily buy them used/refurbished and that you can fit a small PCIe expansion card into them.

I didn’t use them in the end because sadly 22110 M.2 SSDs don’t fit and I wanted to use enterprise SSDs for Ceph.

However, your use case seems simpler, so I’d think a M720q or maybe even M710q (without PCIe slot) would do, for less money than the M9xx series (which support vPro).

There’s a really nice forum thread on ServeTheHome with loads of information about these units.

Dude no shit I’m voting democrat

Bold of him to assume that he will be voting again.

In all of this mess, seeing people like your good friend suffer from the consequences of their own actions, maybe even for the first time, makes me very happy. I’m sorry for the rest of you, but the leopards can eat every single Trump voter for all I care.

Uhh, interesting! Thanks for sharing.

No, it isn’t.

EDIT: I quickly want to add that Jellyfin is still great software. Just please don’t expose it to the public web, use a VPN (Wireguard, Tailscale, Nebula, …) instead.

I don’t know anything about Android AOSP, so I found this clarification important:

This does not mean that Google is making Android a closed-source platform, but rather that the open-source aspect will only be released when a new branch is released to AOSP with those changes, including when new full versions or maintenance releases are finished.

Electron. Many apps nowadays are just headless browsers and browsers are huge and complex. It’s nice from a development perspective, because you can (re)use web tools for desktop apps but it’s very resource hungry.

It’s been a while since that I set this up, so take this with a grain of salt. I have these two plugins installed:

• Chapter Segments Provider
• The older Intro Skipper

I’m honestly not sure if I even need both - maybe the Chapter Segments Provider is unnecessary, even though it’s official and newer. I don’t understand exactly how it works from the docs.

However, Intro Skipper gives you a new scheduled task named “Detect and Analyze Media Segments”. Use this to extract metadata about media segments from your library.

Now that the server knows about some media segments you need a client that can handle them. I’ve had success with the Android TV App (check the settings) and the Web interface should support them too.

I didn’t need to configure anything aside from that, as far as I can remember.
