Gah, Nextcloud is missing all the features and is frankly unusable (mobile apps are slow, can’t make or view albums, and can’t “open with” links on Android at least). My family uses it and my biggest project right now is importing all our stuff to Immich when I finally get the NixOS server ready to replace Ubuntu.

Tuwunel had intentions to build a Synapse migration tool, but I haven’t heard anything about it since. Was waiting for it so I could bring over profiles and most importantly chat history for myself and my family.

I had a ROG Zephyrus G14 “AMD Advantage” laptop with a AMD GPU in it that suffered from these “ring” crashes (according to dmesg). They came and went every few months sometimes with several weeks between crashes. When it would happen, audio kept playing but the display was frozen (can’t even go to tty) and I had to force poweroff. The crash could also happen on Windows (I installed it just to test repro) but Windows handled restarting the GPU so it wouldn’t freeze unlike Linux. The conclusion, at least in the community of people with that laptop, is that it was a hardware defect and the laptop needed to be RMA’d. ASUS wouldn’t do anything for mine though despite explaining the issue to them and showing it happening on Windows.

Either way, I now own a Framework 16 with a 7000 series GPU and am very happy :)

What magic incantation are you using? My OBS either crashes with the ffmpeg setting or uses software enc, and is always blurry. Firefox does all video and audio enc+dec on CPU. Am on all-AMD NixOS and so far gave up on any hw accel for media.

Happened to me too, I was so confused. I hope it is a bug… EDIT: Found the report: https://gitlab.com/relan/fennecbuild/-/issues?show=eyJpaWQiOiIxMjAiLCJmdWxsX3BhdGgiOiJyZWxhbi9mZW5uZWNidWlsZCIsImlkIjoxNjk5MTU5NTd9

Peeeeck… neeeeeck!!!

Awesome! Maybe I can finally switch to using it, though OBS settings are quite confusing.

omg I totally accidentally enabled this

I’d bother removing it but it’s kinda funny to get an email reprimanding me when I ctrl+c out of a sudo command I mistyped, and maybe it will serve as a warning if it gets compromised :p

Very cool! Added the RSS.

Hmm no, I haven’t had this issue. Tempo works fine for me, it’s been mostly bug-free except for a few oversights:

• search doesn’t work offline
• can’t play AAC files
• can’t skip songs via my Pebble watch

I’m (still) on a Pixel 3a, running LineageOS, in case that matters.

I did use Feishin for a while, it’s an excellent music player but unfortunately not a native program. I might switch back to it from Tauon though, as actually playing the whole song before going to the next is a pretty nice upgrade hehe

It looks really good indeed, and I don’t mind at all to pay for apps (I pay for FairEmail)… however it is very strange for me to add a nonfree app to the list I use every day… everything else is open source.

I currently host Navidrome, which has an okay web player. On Android I use “Tempo” (though it is unmaintained) to connect to it, and on Linux I use Tauon (though it has very poor playback). I could not find a native Linux client that is not buggy unfortunately, so I’m also on the lookout for better solutions! I’m not familiar with the device you are talking about but every client I tried supports MPRIS, which are the regular media controls that can be used via the playerctl command, so you should be able to hook things up that way.

Ah, yes… if only. I’ve upgraded internally SLR 1.0 -> SLR 3.0 but we can’t deploy it until a bug is fixed in the Steam client that causes, when we enable SLR 3, all Steam Decks to run the Linux build. Yes, Steam Decks run the Proton version, solely because the save file has different letter casing (yes I know it’s so annoying haha). We’ve spent quite some time on this and there’s no way to fix this without some folks losing their saves, and that is absolutely not an option. Soooo for now desktop Linux is stuck on runtime 1.0, and Steam Deck users are stuck on Proton. “fun” :/

At my studio we maintain a native Linux version with a custom game engine, and it indeed takes a lot of time. I don’t consider Proton a viable option as we lost the ability to integrate with Linux-specific stuff such as Wayland APIs or better input, but I can definitely see the appeal of switching to Proton… if your team uses Windows. If you have some developers on Linux, you naturally get a Linux build (if using cross platform APIs ofc) and it’s actually faster to cross-compile a Windows build every once in a while (skip the slow ntfs I/O) and ship that. But it requires getting more of the team on Linux :)

I don’t have any advice to give but I want to thank you for considering this angle while building the website.

Really cool to see more WINE Wayland support, I ought to try it out and see games running natively on my system!

This is very cool! I’ll definitely use it if it gets a Nix package.

Never heard of FuriLabs, looks really cool. How open is the OS/hardware? Could be my next phone… though I’d love to see an immutable approach so I can’t be left with a broken system after an update.

The article is good, however I’d really appreciate having fedi-style content warnings on AI-generated images. I don’t interact with mainstream social mediums so I generally do not see it, however in the thumbnail and contents of the article there are some quite disturbing images and videos that I’d have chosen not to see (description is enough) given the choice…
