It’s a little strange how these numbers are relatively far off from what the Steam Hardware Survey suggests. On there, Linux is 3.2% of the userbase and Bazzite is 5.5% of that, so Bazzite is about 0.176% of the total userbase. Steam has about 70 million daily active users, so Bazzite’s share of that would be about 120 000.

The I in LLM stands for “image”.

Like, US subs will have a bunch of people literally banging on the inside of the hull so enemy radar picks them up and “destroys” them too.

I’m not a radar operator but I’m pretty sure that’s not how it works. Banging on the hull doesn’t produce radar emissions.

There’s three big reasons: D, R and M.

A reminder that just because they’re considered the opposition in Russia does not mean they’re good guys let alone publish reliable news.

Doesn’t $0.36 times 150,000 downloads come out to 54 thousand dollars, which is a lot of money?

Inspired by this post I spent a couple of hours today trying to set this up on my toy server, only to immediately run into what seems to be a bug where <video> tags loading a simple WebM video from right next to index.html broke because the media response got Anubis’s HTML bot check instead of media.

I suppose my use-case was just too complicated.

People have audited the APIs and it is a known issue that if you know the correct URL to certain resources on the server (e.g. specific files) you can fetch them without authentication. Nothing more serious than that has been found.

I would trust the FOSS software’s actually auditable security any day of the week over the sketchy proprietary solution targeting an extremely niche market.

For some reason they recommend against directly forwarding Jellyfin’s ports, but reverse proxies are fine. I expect this is because the default configuration doesn’t use SSL.

This smug mentality that security is unnecessary when exposing ports to the open internet reminds me of people who think its fine to drive drunk because “I’ve done it dozens of times before and nothing happened!” It also reminds me of the mentality of tech company VPs right before they have a massive data breach. It’s quite absurd to read.

I think you’ll find without exposing ports to the open internet we would not be having this conversation right now. Which, I suppose, wouldn’t be such a bad thing.

It does not say that in the documentation. What the documentation does have, however, are extensive instructions on how to make Jellyfin accessible on WAN: https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/post-install/networking/ https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/post-install/networking/reverse-proxy/

I’m not sure if you’re joking or not, but you can remotely stream from Jellyfin without using a VPN.

Abandoning streaming services only to become a serf of another commercial subscription service seems like such a bizarre move that I really don’t understand how Plex users even exist.

Finland isn’t on that list, but the purchase cost here before any socialized healthcare rebates is ~110€ for a month’s dose of Ozempic, which is in line with the other European countries, so presumably all the prices there are before any rebates.

Yes, KDE is a desktop environment. It’s one of the “Windows-like” ones and very customizable, and arguably the most technically advanced one at the moment.

Wayland is the display server, as it is called. It’s basically the back-end component that facilitates actually displaying anything on the screen. It replaced another component called X11, which was released in 1987 and had become a completely unmaintainable mess of technological debt.

Wayland took a very long time to develop and there are still some growing pains, which is why you will occasionally still see people arguing that X11 is better – these days you should probably just ignore anyone who says that though, as the overwhelming majority of users will be much better served by Wayland than by X11.

As for what distros support it, basically every up-to-date distro (latest major version release during or after 2024) using one of the following desktop environments will default to Wayland: KDE, Gnome, COSMIC, Sway, Hyprland. Other DEs don’t yet have stable Wayland support. Notably Linux Mint, a very common recommendation, is not on this list because the Cinnamon DE it uses does not yet support Wayland.

A couple of example distros mentioned in the thread and article would be Bazzite, Fedora and CachyOS. These distros all update swiftly, which is desirable because the Linux desktop is advancing very quickly at the moment. Slower-moving distros like Debian or Ubuntu LTS tend to miss out on a lot of nice new features.

I just tested it on one of my laptops running Linux Mint Debian edition 7, (Debian 13 Trixie under the hood) with the Cinnamon desktop environment running X11 and it worked perfectly also. 4K TV set as the primary monitor scaled at 150%, the laptop’s screen as the secondary, 1080p at 100% scaling, applied the settings and it was completely fine.

X11 fractional scaling is not great. It may have looked fine if you only had a cursory glance, but it has many issues. “True” fractional scaling in X11 doesn’t work on a per-monitor basis IIRC, instead any per-monitor fractional scaling will be a relatively simple resize operation that results in lots of blurriness.

If your software cheat gets detected, which has much lower odds of happening for some games than it does for others, you spend $30 buying a new account. That is much cheaper than spending $500-$2000 on a DMA card and then an assload of money on the actual cheat software that uses that card (because DMA cheats are much more expensive).

I promise you there’s at most a single digit number of people using DMA cheats for Rust, because software cheats are more than sufficient to evade the bog standard EAC they use.

Why would you bother going through all that trouble if there is a way to software cheat undetectably? This is a rhetorical question.

Yes it does, and there are at least some non-EAC servers with a whitelist system that Linux users can play on.
