Yes, this is a tragic and complex way to have averted a mass shooting but that appears to be what happened. After being shot non-critically it appears the shooter lost their nerve, threw their rifle in a bag and tried to run/rejoin the crowd.

I've been bracing myself for the disgusting politics to hit. Like I can feel right wing pundits hand wringing to show the armed protesters 'have no idea how to handle guns.'

Adding fuel to the fire, we had a shooting last night at a multicultural festival where three were killed, one being 8 months old.

Yeah. The linked Mastodon thread by GrapheneOS mentions them potentially making a phone themselves. I'd love if they partnered with fairphone to build it. Though it sounds like we'd need to accept a higher price than a standard fairphone.

Anark video on Lemmy? Fuck yeah.

I was actually told "you should get a car. Be a man." by an angry driver. I was just stunned to hear something so stupid and cringy said.

I bet the frame rate is fine. Response time is the potential issue. I bet it'd reel like frequently pausing an audiobook with old bluetooth earbuds, which is to say vaguely usable.

I use Aurora store and Fdroid on it. Funny considering direct play store is a selling point of theirs. I mostly use it as an ereader but it's also my work phone since intune doesn't play nice with grapheneos. Being able to fit my ereader in a pocket has been amazing. I rarely leave home without it

Nah. I love my palma 2 and can do plenty with it if you accept no cell phone capabilities it's great. I don't see the appeal of a device with worse refresh rate, a keyboard that needlessly eats screen space, and UI that doesn't trust you as a user.

Edit: I suspect people are reacting without knowing wtf a palma 2 is, lol.

FYI fecal transplants are a thing and they address unhealthy microbiomes in the body. Someone else's shit could literally save your life from a c diff infection.

I can show this meme to my non-trekkie friends and they won't begin to understand how fucking hilarious it is.

+1 for vespucci being intimidating. Mainly cause I feel like I need to read a variety of wiki posts before modifying a new feature type. But once you start to get the hang of it, it really pays off.

 

I've been loving my hard scifi recently. But I feel like it's begun to demonstrate how much easier it is to imagine all the ways things could go wrong. If fiction is how we lay an outline for the future, I wonder if anyone can recommend some more uplifting stories to me? Rather than a cautionary tale I would appreciate a story with a setting where the author dares to risk being wrong about what's right for us. Naturally this may simply be the setting for a somewhat unrelated story, but I'm curious what sorts of literature comes to mind that falls into this category.

 

I have an aging gaming desktop with a GTX 970 that I've previously used to let friends/family stream games. My area has a lot of fiber so it's surprisingly usable, even got VR working. Problem is, I'd prefer to use it as a NAS most the time as it has plenty of drive bays and I need somewhere better to run jellyfin than my desktop.

I'm somewhat aware of the options as I've used various hypervisors etc before, but I also want something as simple as possible. Because of that, I'm looking at TrueNAS. I'm aware my point of difficulty is gonna be the GPU. Is there any easy way to use it for a gaming VM at times and jellyfin encode others? If there's not some nifty feature in Proxmox or TrueNAS to solve my problem, how dumb would running a linux VM with both the games and Jellyfin be?

Forgive me if this is a more generic question than I realize. I'd be plenty happy to be pointed to some existing resources.
