Unfortunately I don't think this runs on Linux anymore.

August Recommendations Thread: What are you playing? in c/patientgamers@sh.itjust.works
[–] briongloid@aussie.zone 20 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Lately I've just been playing FTL & Stardew Valley on an old Linux machine.

I intend on playing New Vegas soon, with the intention of finishing it before Fallout Season 2.

I generally use the Raspberry Pi Imager, It works just as well with USB's as TF cards.

GoToSocial is a new ActivityPub social network server for the Fediverse in c/technology@beehaw.org

Any platform that believes it should be their choice whether the user can opt-in to any part of the fediverse, is a big no from me.

Tell us what game you are currently, or recently played, greater than 6+ months old.

If the game happens to be on sale, a link would be a plus.

Appears to be Hetzner for now, wouldn't be surprised if all VPS get affected eventually.

Let everyone know below a game (6+ months old), that you have played recently, are currently playing or intend to play soon. If it's currently on sale, a link to the sale & price would be great.

Google is working on essentially putting DRM on the web in c/technology@beehaw.org
[–] briongloid@aussie.zone 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I just had to change my domain name because Google wouldn't stop blocking my personal server webpage for being a "phishing" website, there was no way it could be interpreted in that way at all and it didn't matter, my personal server apps were basically blocked on 80% of browsers.

Netflix kills Basic plan, making its cheapest ad-free tier $15.49 in c/technology@beehaw.org
[–] briongloid@aussie.zone 39 points 1 year ago

The next step is for the ad-tier to go to $7.99, $8.99, $9.99

The strategy was always to make the ad-free options more valuable by comparison.

In no more than 36 months, the ad-tier will cost the $9.99 it was intended to replace, making Netflix having successfully added ads to the base tier, for no discount.

Thanks for the link, I had been trying for a while and one of my domains doesn't even work now after I changed too many DNS records.

How do you get it to work in root domains? I've only ever been able to get subdomains to work.

My first website in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] briongloid@aussie.zone 0 points 1 year ago (4 children)

It's great with subdomains, I don't think it works on root Domains but it's still extremely easy to set up.

I would recommend forcing HTTPS as well as creating a Page Rule enforcing strict SSL.

The Release Date and Key Features of Windows 12 Unveiled in c/technology@beehaw.org
[–] briongloid@aussie.zone 3 points 1 year ago

I mean, Windows 10+ should only be used on an SSD for the OS install, even if it's not explicitly required.

So long as it doesn't outright block us from doing what we choose to on our PC's, there should be a recommended settings minimum that differs from the minimum.

How are new Lemmy instances first integrated into the network? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] briongloid@aussie.zone 1 points 1 year ago

Knowing that instances only pull posts/comments that occur after the first subscription, it will become less and less viable to choose a small instance if Lemmy doesn't add the option of adjustable pull settings.
