Technology@lemmy.world•Google pulls the plug on uBlock Origin, leaving over 30 million Chrome users susceptible to intrusive adsEnglish
2·1 year agoThis is also how I have it set up, with “firefox multi-account containers” and “simple tab groups” working together, you can have multiple containerized accounts within one firefox instance. Works great!

49·1 year agoAt this point I am seriously wondering why people would like to use Chrome over Firefox for instance.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•AMD won't patch all chips affected by severe data theft vulnerability — Ryzen 3000, 2000, and 1000 will not get patched for 'Sinkclose'English
3·1 year agoAMD published a list with the mitigation on Sinkclose on all their processor ranges, and the ComboPI version that will have a patch:
Use of hardware enablement package kernel might help here? It is called linux-generic-hwe or something like that. It will install a much newer kernel with more support for newer hardware.

Technology@lemmy.world•I’m sorry, but I cannot fulfill this request as it goes against OpenAI use policyEnglish
10·2 years agobot fight! lol…
We know humanity is lost if bots are starting to fight over domination…
hmm, not sure why baca would need so many requirements. I installed baca using pip as per (https://github.com/wustho/baca), on a hedless ubuntu based server. Maybe on Arch it would need to install / update python packages?
You could also try epy (https://github.com/wustho/epy) which is also a terminal based epub reader.
baca is a terminal based epub reader. Quite nice.

Linux@lemmy.world•Separate drive for games while dual booting? (OSes - Games - Data)English
2·2 years agoYes, NTFS indeed. That is the setup I am using right now as well, because the games drive already was NTFS. For steam this works nicely.
However, for other use cases I was creating symlinks to directories on another NtFS drive in my system, and this borked some files. So that is how I found the BTRFS option. Have not tried it myself though…

Linux@lemmy.world•Separate drive for games while dual booting? (OSes - Games - Data)English
2·2 years agoyou could try using BTRFS, there is a driver for windows. NTFS support can be flakey from Linux and is in general not recommended. If you are using steam for your games library, there is a support article from valve that helps setup dual boot accessable game library. I have set that up in my dual boot system (windows 10 / Endeavour OS). It works, and also the steam sync feature works nice so game progress is shared across both OSses.

you can automate a lot of the basc profile stuff in your dotfiles with some automation such as https://github.com/anishathalye/dotbot to bootstrap a new install. it makes your new distro right at home, and if you combine this with github to store your dotfiles, you’ll also have a backup of your environment.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Debian Bug report logs: #1057843 - linux: ext4 data corruption in 6.1.64-1
1·2 years agoDoes this affect ubuntu and raspberry os releases as well? Since these are based on debian?

Linux@lemmy.ml•Ubuntu is my daily driver but I'm thinking of setting this up on my never used Raspberry PI -- anyone using it? How tough do you think it will be as a first project?
3·2 years agoLooks like a pretty straightforward install! And a fun project to have a personal message space with friends. It includes the ability to launch gameoso you could maybe set it up as a personal lobby for gaming buddies.

Linux@lemmy.ml•What are the major components of any Linux distribution?
20·2 years agoI think you would also need an initial run process such as systemd or the sysV runlevels.

Hacker News@derp.foo•Increasing QUIC and UDP Throughput over TailscaleEnglish
2·2 years agoGrest that the improvements will be upstreamed to the Wireguard source, so anyone can benefit from the improvements.
This also looks similar to Tailscale (https://tailscale.com/). I have not used this but saw it popping up in youtube recently.

Starfield@lemmy.zip•I'm astonished at how well this game runs for a Bethesda gameEnglish
1·2 years agoYeah, I guess that may be the case. Actually, it feels as if the CPU is holding things back, since the FPS difference between low/med/high is just a couple of frames (all between 28-40)

Starfield@lemmy.zip•I'm astonished at how well this game runs for a Bethesda gameEnglish
2·2 years agoI updated to the latest version, with Starfield optimizations. Using DDU and clean install (as I usually do with a new driver). But I guess I have to face the fact that an update to my hardware is unavoidable in the near future…

22·2 years agoPlaying on 1440p res, PC config: 1080 TI with 11 GB VRAM + Intel i7 8700 + 32 GB + everything on SSD Not the newest of hardware, but still powerful enough to play basically anything I throw at it.





That is one thing I still need to do, upgrade my Ubuntu server from 22.04 to 24.04. laat time I tried this I noticed many python packages were missing or failing. Reverted to the backup. Maybe now is the time to do the switch and iron out the crinks that may be left after.
