Interesting. Using the browser for both Lemmy and Mbin and neither picked it up. But subbed!

Is there such a community? O.o
My instance picked nothing and I was doing a meta joke, since there’s !blurrypicturesofcats@lemmy.world

DeGoogle Yourself@lemmy.ml•Is there a collective community Donation Day for FOSS devs so we can remember to donate?
2·19 days agoFor you to remember, perhaps not needed. As Reannlegge mentioned, if a banking or payment service you use allow setting recurring payments, that’s a good option. Also if the developer or developers are on platforms that allow recurring payments, like Patreon, it’s also interesting.
For reminding others, when talking about such projects, include a reminder to support every now and then, though avoid spamming or speaking only very sporadically.

DeGoogle Yourself@lemmy.ml•YouTube Shorts auto-restart: terrible for those with ADHD
11·1 month agoI feel like there’s an additional intent there. Short bursts of dopamine in quick succession are a pretty addicting drug, and thus making people more distracted and sedated, and if they don’t have ADHD, they may get the same focus troubles people with ADHD have.
If you must consume those, I strongly advise to at least redirect to places autoplay or replay isn’t triggered. In Youtube’s case, there are browser plugins for redirecting, yt-dlp, mobile and PC players, etc.
And expanding a bit, since it’s not a problem exclusive to Google…
For TikTok and Odysee, I don’t consume their short-format videos so can’t comment on those. And for Loops, part of the fediverse, watching externally, e.g. on Mastodon, should give the video in a plain form, without the addicting features.
A bit of an exercise on futurology, but from what I skimmed on the promotional materials, this remake seems to be inspired in the recent open world Zelda games. If that’s the case indeed, I’d presume that the controls would work as well.
If I may suggest, already start finding alternatives where those you follow are. Helps with both timeouts, and at making less painful to stop using Youtube altogether if/when the need comes.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Is Linux on a laptop with an Intel Processor + an NVidia GPU still the absolute fucking nightmare it was 10 years ago?
2·1 month agoBeen using for some 2~3 years now a Nitro 5 laptop almost always set to the Nvidia GPU. Issues are very rare, and some times compatibility is actually better than with the other GPU, the Intel one. Also worth noting I use Linux Mint though, and been some years since I last tested systems based Arch (btw).

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Where can I install games without steam
1·2 months agoAlso, as others said, @Untamed_Star@lemmy.blahaj.zone, if the game is on a DRM-free-oriented platform, like GOG, Itchio, etc., you could look for those.
Additionally, looking for sources of a given game can help find where it’s less of a hassle to get it, specially through databases or adjacent, like PCGamingWiki, ITAD, NeoDB (fediverse-compatible!), GameFAQS, etc. Also apparently it isn’t uncommon for databases to cross-reference each other, so one can lead to another.

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Where can I install games without steam
1·2 months agoIf the game is only on Steam, install Linux on a VM, install Wine in it, run SteamCMD through Wine, download the build you want, and move to your host OS.
SteamCMD is a minimalist/terminal-based version of Steam. The Windows version can be downloaded separately. However, it downloads needed libraries and I’m not sure how good Steam is at escaping Wine’s environment, so a VM adds an extra security layer. Also the command changes depending of whether it’s 32-bit or 64-bit, if it’s for Linux, MacOS or Windows, or even if it’s a previous, still public update, and it’s been some years since I used those and I don’t have the commands noted down, so can’t help with that at least right now.

Linux Phones@lemmy.ca•Camera working (ish) on the Fairphone 6 running Linux. Wide and telephoto
1·2 months agoIf you use a microblogging-compatible fediverse instance (Mastodon, Misskey, Mbin, possibly PieFed?), you can also generate a RSS tracking bot with @birb@rss-parrot.net to follow locally.
Here are the instances I have noted if you want to generate one for the guy, and worth noting Nitter instances have a tendency to time-out, probably to avoid scrapping, so you may need to cycle through them:
- https://twiiit.com/
- https://lightbrd.com/
- https://nitter.poast.org/
- https://nitter.tiekoetter.com/
- https://nitter.kareem.one/

- https://nitter.space/
- https://nitter.catsarch.com/

The Nitter #RSS pattern is
https://nitter_instance_domain/user_handle/rss, e.g for the guy linked at the OP,https://nitter.privacyredirect.com/nmcmildotcom/rss.
Context: this is a community mention. Makes it easier to find the community across instances.

DeGoogle Yourself@lemmy.ml•is Nebula a valid alternative to Youtube?
2·2 months agoPaying for whatever you find worthwhile, but in the scope of the original question, for services that pose as alternatives of Youtube.
Also interesting, wasn’t aware of Odysee being open source. Living and learning!








Imo if the person moves the responsability to a third party, he should still be responsible for what happens. The wait sounds reasonable to me, as then people can see how responsible the dev or “dev” shows to be towards the project he is managing.
And by that, it allows separating those just using LLMs as additional tools, from “adventurers” (local expression for people that do things without a plan), scammers and asset flip users going for an even quicker buck.
