  • Quit thinking as a windows user now you are on Linux.

    You running a pirated game with proton? Or looking to run windows inside Linux?

    In any case run the game offline, disconnect the PC from internet and you should be safe.

    What? It’s an on line game? It’s a game that need internet access to run? Then what are you complaining about? There is nothing you can do to be “safe”.

    Anyway running a windows game on linux with wine or proton should be safe enough from most of the possible threats (environment is too different). Running in a VM would be a serious hit on performances even if you use qemu+KVM (forget about virtual box) with all drivers set to passtrough and you give up your video card on Linux and pass it to windows

    At that point, you are again at risk because e you are again running windows …

    Define your threat at least. That would make a response easier

    My guess you are overthinking stuff.




  • Not really, apart from some software algorithms I guess. Totally different stuff, they use a perimetrali wire with radio signal to detect borders and can work up and down slopes and have much more advanced security measures since we’ll your pet tail might be in the way. Also more security as those might be snatched by thieves walking long side your lawn … And they are built to live under rain. Hail and scorching sun.







  • Not at all …

    You are free to do as you please, and I fully respect that.

    I was also a no AI coder, but somehow changed my mind slowly as I learned how to use PROPERLY the tool, which can be quite useful.

    Learning how to use it has been fun too, so I suggest you give it a try if you haven’t done so yet.

    The first risk is abusing it. The second risk is trusting it. And there are many more risks, but AI is a knife and not a pistol: there are good uses for it, but you must be careful and use it properly all the time.



  • A user that want a minimal environment installs a modern complete and featurefull entire desktop environment and then complains that it’s too bloated, at five only on Lemmy.

    What is this, reddit nowadays? /S

    Anyway, you should uninstall plasma and switch to any of the many more basic Linux GUI environment that better suit you needs, that the magic of Linux after all, nobody forces you to use what you don’t like or don’t approve on your own machine


  • Agree. I went directly with Jellyfin because I joined late the party, but never regret it.

    So can’t comment on Plex, because I never used it. But I see the news and see the enshittified path it’s going on with Plex

    I understand that they need revenue, specially if they actually provide the bandwidth to let you access your media from outside home. I also understand why people is mad, but I guess convenience come with a price, of you don’t want to pay for it, there are alternatives I don’t see anything bad in switching to jellyfin.
