Looks like Valve is preparing to release SteamOS to the public (or at least to third-party hardware manufacturers) in c/steamdeck@sopuli.xyz

A thing can fail for multiple reasons at the same time

that's fine and all but the problem with the debian based SteamOS were the horribly outdated GPU drivers. The runtime was fine but the OS lacked support for bleeding edge hardware (which is somewhat important for a gaming OS)

don't know where I read it but a commenter left this glorious piece in one of the discussions about this entire thing: "The russians will be marching into Berlin while NATO is considering whether invoking article 5 would be seen as too much of an escalation"

I can't with our politicians anymore. Apeasement has not worked in the past and it should by now be clear to everyone involved that it currently is not working either

tbf back then they picked possibly the worst base for a gaming distro, a problem that has been remedied with the new SteamOS

Not really, obviously I'll take their library into account when talking with them about Novels but I don't judge them for reading things I consider bad. Iread enough trash myself and find it enjoyable so I can't pretend like the same can't be true for others

You're right, I must've still been half a sleep or something because I swear when I read that earlier I read the Read Speeds flipped(so Raid 10 read speed as belonging to Raid-Z2 and vice versa)... my bad

Windows VS Linux (part 3) in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world

Technically yes but (without reading the article) going by what drivers were removed previously any affected device has been incompatible with modern linux kernels for a while so this probably doesn't affect anyone's experience using linux

well good riddance, that 'joke' got massively overplayed and has not been funny for a long time

Not quite, a Raid 10 offers you faster writes but slower reads, it's not universally faster

[META] Survey Results (self.metadiscussions)

submitted 3 months ago by neshura to c/metadiscussions

0 comments fedilink

I've let the survey run for long enough now I suppose (at least I'm not getting any new responses) so I'm making this post with the "results". If anyone is interested in the raw data I'll post it but for now I'll just focus on the conclusion I've drawn from it.

For the most part responses only varied slightly but most of the questions were only there to help make a decision about the core question: What do you want to happen with this instance now?. The responses to which varied a lot compared to the other questions.

There were some votes against opening up the instance to other series discussions but I myself and the majority of votes are in favor so that's what will happen. However I really dislike seeing empty discussion threads so there will be some rules in place so this doesn't end up like a spam machine. As is with all things in life these are subject to change.

#1: There must be at least 3 users interested in regular discussions for a series to create a community for it here. There should be some regular volume of discussion for the series and 3 core users should facilitate that.

Note: If there already are discussion or fan art posts for a series on the Fediverse feel free to provide some of them to show that the newly created community would not just rot in a corner.

#2: If the series does not have weekly chapters there should be some form of plan for how to structure this so there is regular activity.

There is little sense in using a community only for volume discussions and nothing else those could just as well take place in !lightnovels@ani.social. As such there should at least be some discussion in between volumes (discussions about characters, fan art, whatever really)

Note: If the series does not release on J-Novel Club please be aware that @Mestionora@bookwormstory.social will be unable to automatically create posts for it. In those cases threads need to be manually created every week.

If anyone is interested in a series and thinks they can meet these 2 rules please message me either here or via Matrix (@neshura:neshweb.chat) so we can discuss the details.

Additionally I'll post a list of links to any volume or chapter/part discussion threads to the weekly thread over at !lightnovels@ani.social. It's something I should have done with the PrePub discussions for Ascendance of a Bookworm as well but I didn't think of it until now.

[META] Future of the Instance (self.aobprepub)

Before I get into this I apologize for giving you all a heart attack. Actually no, I know what I am doing with that title, suffer!

Unfortunately the main story of Ascendance of a Bookworm released its last Pre-Pub chapter last week and with it a stop to the very regular weekly discussion threads. Obviously we will have Side Stories to look forward to, however those won't provide nearly the same regularity as the main story did.

Up until now the Pre-Pub threads have been the main driver behind activity on the instance and the closure of the story then opens the question of what will happen to this place going forward. First of all this instance will likely not be disappearing. I have my only active lemmy account on here and since I have 0 real hosting costs I have no problem keeping this going indefinitely, I also think it might be an opportunity to change things up a bit. However first and foremost this is a place for you all, not for me alone, so your opinion about what should or should not happen to this instance weigh a bit more than my own. As such I (with input from ludrol, btw thanks for always being there for me to push decisions onto) have compiled a survey about that topic. Do feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments as well though.

With that out of the way I'd like to express a sincere thanks for all the fun discussions we've had here so far, I genuinely enjoyed every moment of them and look forward to more of them.

[Meta] Admins (not mods) here are already swinging around the content-removal-hammer (self.anime)

Check the modlog for proof, a discussion post about moving this instance to an instance that shan't be named now got removed for "linking to instance featuring pedo content".

Ironically that exact possibility was reason for the discussion in the first place so seeing it happen this quickly is a bit funny.

Not sure how best to go about linking to said instance since it seems to get your content removed. DM's would be the only solution I guess but not sure if those are checked as well.

PSA: Instance Update to 0.19 on Wednesday (self.metadiscussions)

submitted 1 year ago by neshura to c/metadiscussions

3 comments fedilink

The initial hiccups with Federation seem to be resolved with 0.19.1-rc.1. Since I also managed to test the new Version of the Mestionora Bot (it should now actually post Part 2 and Part 3 Manga discussions in parallel instead of only Part 3, hooray) I will update the instance after PrePub discussions die down a bit.

Expected Timeframe is Wednesday 16:00 UTC - Wednesday 18:00 UTC.

During the Update changes to the expected downtime can be checked on status.bookwormstory.social.

If anyone has any questions please feel free to ask away.
