Sure can

I haven’t followed the development communication much, but yes, screen sharing works now. It wasn’t working on wayland like 8mo ago, but I tried again a month ago and it’s now working.

I haven’t tried mumble yet.

You pay for the hosting resources yes, but you can host it anywhere. I’ve been playing around with it using a docker instance in my homelab.

Were you trying Teamspeak 6? The UI is different, but the functionality is on par I believe. Not open source, but at least you can self-host.

Does this mean lemmy users can’t have the same name as communities? I’d just never noticed.

The issue is that full screen games wouldn’t hold onto the mouse? Are these games running through proton (windows games being launched through steam)? If so, I know there’s an option in protontricks to tweak this behavior per game. “Automatically capture the mouse in full screen windows” in winecfg.

Alternatively, you can try tweaking your steam launch params to use gamescope. Ex.

gamescope -W 1920 -H 1080 -r 60 -- %command%

Where the params denote the resolution and refresh rate of the window. You may need to install gamescope from your package manager.

I have an edge router and switch, and two unifi APs. All accounts running locally. Works fine for my uses, though I think if I had it to do over again I’d investigate pfsense or opnsense. Not sure about hardware tho.

since it uses ZFS I don’t know it would be good for home use

TrueNAS is all I’ve used for my home for the better part of a decade. It’s been fine, what is your concern?

Because HBO has a good track record for fantasy shows?

I’m fully convinced this post and everything on that bandcamp page is AI generated, and this is a transparent, low effort attempt to make a few bucks on Bandcamp Friday.

Those who make peaceful revolution impossible…

Here’s a good, quick summary. Skip to 13:16.

Predicted…openly by Trump.

They already had them before trump. CBP removed them first thing when trump entered office last year.

If you watch to the end, he explains that the fake ending was so that he could also post a version that doesn’t get “partisan” for the people who want to share the first part about solar to people who may not recieve the second part well. But I don’t think there’s any risk of people not recieving it well here, and I think it’s important that as many people as possible see a typically non-partisan channel break the silence to denounce what is going on. I think if a huge swathe of internet “influencers” were suddenly this vocal, it would wake viewers up, it could change the course of history. It’s when everyone silently continues their regularly scheduled content that democracy silently dissolves.

It was/still is in a bubble. People with a lot of it closed their positions because it was so high. As long as trump continues his same tricks to try and pump the stock market, there’s no reason it won’t go right back up.

Nice! Glad you enjoyed them. If I knew you were going to take a listen, I would have offered entrypoints. But I appreciate that you listened to entire albums rather than whatever the top tracks are on spotify.

When I think Explosions, I think The Earth is Not a Cold Dead Place or All of a Sudden I Miss Everyone. But TC, TC, TC is one of my favs. The Wilderness is probably their most bold departure from the typical organic sound. Very industrial feeling.

Aeroplane is probably the one you should listen to if nothing else. As I understand it, part of their noteworthy sound comes from their use of a distortion pedal with an acoustic guitar. I recommend listening to Song Against Sex real quick too.

Probably the mwY album I’d recommend as an entry would be Brother, Sister. Their first album was considered post-hardcore, and I can see it, but I honestly am not sure how to classify their second. After that I think they’d be more considered folk, and then maybe back towards indie and post-hardcore. But even without the notable vocals, their instrumental segments are so uniquely “them”. I have a friend who always knew I listened to them, but was never his thing until Ten Stories came out, and then told me, “I get it now.”

The best demonstration of their evolution is probably to listen to Bullet to Binary (first track from their first album), and then Bullet to Binary Pt2 (from their 4th album). They’re clearly different genres, yet musically you can hear their unique sound is behind both.

Take care! (tc tc)

Yeah, I am interested in understanding your world view, and am trying to ask direct questions about it so I can understand it better (such as how you arrived at your definition of escapism), but if that’s not something that interests you, and you’d rather stoop to ad hominem jabs (like telling me I’m drunk, or to touch grass/look at trees), then we can call it here. Your call.

Escapism: Using any method to interpret reality instead of directly facing said reality.

Interesting. I’ve never heard anyone attempt to define escapism like that. Where are you getting this definition?

Or from the other side, what word would you use to mean,

habitual diversion of the mind to purely imaginative activity or entertainment as an escape from reality or routine

Hopefully you agree that “purely imaginative…escape from reality” is distinct from “any method to interpret reality”.

If you’re looking at a picture of a tree and using your imagination to marry it to the real thing, that is escapism.

What if I told you that looking at a real tree is an act of using your imagination to marry it to reality? Consider that humans looked at the moon and stars every day for centuries before we understood what they were in reality. Some people still do to this today.

Regardless of whether you’re considering something in front of you or a concept in abstract, if you’re attempting to grapple with the nature of reality, you are most certainly not engaging in escapism.

I’m honestly surprised they haven’t said, “calling it CSAM is woke.”

Yes, almost certainly. A gaming device is a gaming device, what matters is how many users you have.

If we’re concerned about distinguishing between platform, then steam is statistically insignificant on the vast majority of platforms people game on.
