I’ve seen slightly offtopic posts deleted here, even after some interesting conversation in the comments. I think Lemmy is small, and it could help the platform if conversations and posts are preserved even if they are not 100% on topic. But I respect the work of mods, it’s their decision how they run a community, even if I don’t agree with them all time.

But just as a backup, if things take an unexpected turn, here are some similar, but much less active communities:

• !selfhosted@sh.itjust.works
• !selfhosting@slrpnk.net
• !homelab@selfhosted.forum
• !selfhosting@eviltoast.org
• !SelfHosted@europe.pub

This is also to the “low effort” posters, if you disagree with your post’s removal you can post it to other similar communities.

Also QuickShare is not an Android feature, it’s Google Play Services (GMS) feature, it doesn’t work on degoogled android phones.

Here is the issue about implementing it in microG: https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/issues/1272

The image didn’t load for me, but xcancel is still working:

I have 3, played through multiple platformer games with friends, but I haven’t experienced any noticeable latency, I use them only with bluetooth. I also use xpadneo

Have you tried updating the firmware from a windows VM? You need the xbox accessories app there, I think you can upgrade the firmware without a microsoft account. Connect the controller with a wire and pass it through to the VM, and upgrade from the app there.

I also needed to pair it first in the VM, without it BT didn’t work. I just followed everything from the ArchWiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Gamepad#Connect_Xbox_Wireless_Controller_with_Bluetooth

I haven’t followed this software and company before, what do you mean, what is the catch?

Adobe doesn’t offer any of its software for free except acrobat reader, where you get nagged about paid features constantly, but it’s easy to ignore.

Why shouldn’t I recommend this over cracked Photoshop? Its features seems like closer to PS than Gimp or Krita.

Following Trendy Toots bot made my mastodon experience much better: https://mastodon.social/@trendytoots

It just retoots popular posts, similar to hot thread but chronological.

There are 2 fedora 42 editions on the list, one with quotes, one without

I have no idea why some distros name is between quotes, maybe the list is dictated by Mini Me in Steam HQ or is it some kid of sarcasm?

Just the heads up, that cpu is ancient. Its performance is comparable to an Rpi 4, but that old cpu consumes 30W+ while a full rpi maxes around 6-7 W. Rpi 5 is around 4-5 times more powerful with third power.

So it’s good if you just tinkering with old hardware for fun, but you can buy far more powerful modern hardware for only several dollars if you look at the second hand market.

Also I remember, I dealt with Toshibas from that era, they were quite locked down, e.g. you couldn’t install upstream nvidia drivers on them only the outdated ones signed by Toshiba. So it’s not unexpected that some options like that are missing in bios settings.

They are good guys, they even have a mastodon account: https://mas.to/@alternativeto

You can easily import music metadata to musicbrainz with userscripts: https://github.com/murdos/musicbrainz-userscripts

I use the discogs and bandcamp one frequently.

Install the userscript in your browser, and if you find your album on discogs or other sites, it adds a button there, and with few clicks it transfers the data to musicbrainz. Then in picard search again, or copy the link from musicbrainz to the searchbar in picard

I don’t watch videos where someone has an open mouth on the thumbnail.

Wtf man, developers are also people. Most of them doing this for free in their free time. You are the kind of entitled user who makes foss devs burn out. Never thought I will find one in the wild.

I use krita frequently and never met your bug so it’s not as recreatable or important as you think.

Noone forces you to use krita. If it doesn’t fit your workflow or if you think developers are deliberately sabotaging your work, you can switch to another free or paid alternative. If you would switch to a paid one, you could speak to a manager.

In op’s case I’m not sure it’s a you problem. In your case I’m sure it is.

Are you sure not just the defaults changed? Or isn’t it a problem on your end? On the project page the screenshot looks like the old version: https://invent.kde.org/graphics/arianna

Have you contacted the developers? They have a matrix chat. Maybe you found a bug, and it would help others if you would report it.

Then can you explain how google news works? I never used it, maybe a lot others have also no idea.

From google reader i switched to feedly after google shut it down in 2013, when I started self hosting switched to ttrss, then to freshrss when it became apparent the developer of ttrss is an actual neonazi. It was always working for me so i never looked for a replacement.

Wait. The point of the unbelievable amount of telemetry you can’t even disable was to collect info in situations like this. Right? Why is there telemetry if they have to ask?

Edit: title of the article is a bit misleading, as I obviously commented before reading the article.

The “another” company they are in contacting is Phison, the manufacturer of thr affected controllers, so it doesn’t sound as bad as from the title
