Out of curiosity, I’ve been wanting to get a jackery for camp trips an such, how is the 100w model? I keep eyeing the 2000w version but the price of it is absurd.

I played Alan Wake (the first one) recently for the first time and was surprised to see Verizon billboards, Energizer batteries/flashlights and Lincoln cars in the game.

I personally didn’t mind it and treated it as an Easter egg opposed to an actual ad, if it were a pop-up or something that halted me in my place I would be annoyed sure but minor things like that kinda give it a bit of realism.

Note; I did want to link the Alan Wake x Energizer/Verizon/Lincoln collab here but then I got this pop-up on the first site that came up -

Pop-ups like this make me not want to use your product or service.

Edit; Kotaku didn’t care for my ad blocker so I’ll link them instead of fandom -

Let me guess, proprietary drivers cause this and the open source or generic drivers lack “functionality”.

If it turns on, reaches its peek resolution and refresh rate that is good enough for me, I genuinely can care less for HDR or the nitty gritty features.

I see you got your answer but Forza Horizon 6 is stupid buggy on Linux, I had to install new drivers as well as add these launch options to my game and use ProtonGE10-26.

VKD3D_CONFIG=skip_application_workarounds,descriptor_heap,avoid_image_buffer_aliasing %command%

I didn’t bother with HDR as it breaks the Steam Overlay preventing custom profiles for the Steam Controller.

Yeah I learned the hard way, I ran updates on my Debian desktop and didn’t realize the kernel failed to rebuild due to a driver not supporting the latest kernel version, well to my surprise the day after when I went to turn my desktop on and it failed to boot, I couldn’t navigate Grub to get into another kernel version or recovery.

That sucked.

Corsair K95 Mechanical keyboard.

Stealing this from you, for research purposes.

what people recommend Ubuntu Mint Zorin Fedora Gnome Arch as a new user

Operating system, Operating system, Operating system, Operating system, Desktop environment?, Operating system.

People recommend what works for them, OP just got unlucky with some weirdly specific touch pad and driver troubles on a laptop, not unheard of but I suspect the manufacturer never released the drivers for Linux nor the source code so I bet Fedora / OpenSuse came up with their own solution that the other distros mentioned lacked.

People often forget dictionaries exist to quite literally define words and their meanings.

Would be nice to see a boot manager support Corsair keyboard drivers, bloody dumb Corsair keyboards require proprietary drivers to function.

At least they’re admitting their fault.

Edit; Their matrix room if anyone is interested.

I would argue and say that it is poor implementation on your developers behalf, Lemmy itself supports it, your client is failing to properly render the image.

As mentioned previously, Voyager displays the image as intended.

from an actual search company that values privacy.

California company obliged by FVEY? While I appreciate their efforts, American based companies kind of have a history of abandoning their privacy-respecting ways once subpoenaed.

Entirely depends on the instance admin and whether or not they keep it maintained and up to date.

If you don’t trust the platform then you shouldn’t be using it. No bandaid like antivirus or firewall can help with that.

I mean, if you don’t have a firewall on the device itself then your router certainly does, your device requests xyz port open your router will oblige with UPNP unless explicitly denied.

The on-device firewall is just an extra step before it hits your router’s firewall anyways, I’m sure your devices have made contact with servers behind your back that you know nothing about.

Web browsers look for either port :80 or port :443 by default, your reverse proxy sits on those ports, hence why you don’t need to input a port at the end of the domain.

Get yourself a load balancer like Traefik or SWAG, buy a domain, setup ACME certificates for SSL/TLS and start pointing your load balancer to your services.

The firewall is annoying? I would argue and say the firewall is protecting your computer from connecting to a rouge server, annoying or not it’s better than some douche abusing an exploit in your system.

perhaps if you open the Wiki link where the image was taken from, for me it’s animated on Voyager.

OpenSnitch is a nice for the desktop environment, deny by default and prompts the user when an application requests a open port, at first the prompts can get a little overwhelming given how many things want to connect to xyz server but eventually lightens up.

As a Canadian elbows are at a cool 30° right now, not everything is peaches and cream on the liberal side of the rainbow.

Couldn’t APNG be considered?
