Do you mean being dependent on people having “done it in nix before” so you can copy it? Definitely true to some extent. The language takes a bit of getting used to. Haven’t watched the video so idk context, but if using docker on nix there’s a great tool called compose2nix that converts compose files for docker or podman into declarative nix files. That took a lot of the challenge away for me personally.
I would say with all of these recommendations, you can probably look to find an AM4 motherboard and user ddr4 instead of ddr5 ram secondhand. If you play heavily modded Minecraft, ddr4 ram will be much more affordable to opt for 64 GB if you want to allocate 20-30gb and keep a lot free still. AM4 motherboards cover a large range of CPUs up to ryzen 5xxx I think. there’s a lot of room for upgrades if you can only find one of the older CPUs. I jumped from a 2700x to a 3900x recently and it’s been great
Edit: only just read your future proof comment. Older parts may not be the way to go then, since you’re restricting upgrades to things which already exist Edit again: I thought about it some more and I think this tier of parts is actually future proof, in that it should do the things you said you’re interested in doing into the foreseeable future
Why not? People are generally always online these days and there is a lot of music out there, plenty to fill a phone many times over. Granted you might only have a few hours worth of tracks at any time but there is obviously at least one person (OP) who doesn’t.
Not to mention the way they manage their library sounds incredibly desktop oriented. This removes the need to plugin the phone.
And then like Plex/jellyfin, or audiobookshelf, sounds like this let’s you have a shared library across devices or people, even better!
Can I please query the win10/11 because it’s a shared console? What about it being a) shared or b) a console makes win 10/11 a requirement?
A consistent console-ish experience with pc-like access to games is more a case for Bazzite or steamos than a case for windows.
Audiobookshelf supports EPUB files and other ebook formats. You can put them alongside audiobooks (offering a UI option to either read or listen) or use purely ebooks although obviously a little overkill if you aren’t using the audio features at all
I’ve gotten a CalDAV server, audiobookshelf, and selfhosted obsidian live sync running on my laptop while I wait for movers to bring my shit to my house. Then gotta migrate it all across to my mini PC afterwards. Doing a modular NixOS setup to replace/complement what I used to have running on proxmox.
Once everything is on a dedicated machine I’m going to make a nice little homepage for it, inspired by a previous thread here.
In the case of the meme, the item which is more expensive is the same item marketed differently. As in, exactly the same item. The insane financing scheme is referencing a popular pizza chains “pay it in 4” for a pizza order, which is both similarly comical and malicious. Both things prey on time-poor, tech-illiterate, or uneducated users to increase profit margins without needing to improve or adjust the service or goods being provided.
I mean, it still helps right? It limits your losses to X weeks instead of X months or, I hate to say it, X years.
I did a comparative study on 10 things I hate about you and taming of the shrew for a term in school. In fact, a lot of our Shakespeare was dressed up as comparative studies which did make it interesting.
That’s not really true. Banks getting higher interest on loans also pay out more interest on deposits, otherwise they’re unable to attract and retain customers. FI profitability is based on net interest margin (revenue from lending - losses from deposits), and they need deposits to have the money to lend out so they can’t arbitrarily lower their deposit account rates to increase NIM.
Banks get richer no matter what happens, because people need loans. If anything, higher rates make it more challenging for banks to make money as people are less able to make repayments and less likely to take out loans for luxury purchases or holidays.
Reach a broader audience on dogshit platforms. At least this is proper censoring and not a piss take off a line through the “bad word”
I guess similar to saying at least 10%, to convey that it isn’t 9.5% or 9% but more than that.
When you pay for enterprise equipment, you are typically paying a premium for longer, more robust support. Consumer products are less expensive because they don’t get this support.
The semantics is that downloading is copying something from one computer system to another. Nothing about intent or permanence or whether it’s a temp/cache file or not. If you did not download the file, you cannot have seen it.
Whether you meant to do something or not does not change the action. The colloquial use of the word downloading to mean something different from streaming or browsing does not change the fundamental action.
In the case of WhatsApp, which is specifically in question here, it doesn’t “cache” images in a temporary folder. It saves the images to your devices media folders in their own library. So even by your definition, they’re being downloaded. Now, this is a setting which is on by default so maybe an individual doesn’t realise. It doesn’t mean they’re not downloading the content.
I don’t know if @Hackerman_uwu is enough? I’m writing this comment to test it
Maybe !Hackerman_uwu@lemmy.world
Edit: nope neither of those work
I think however you’re accessing Lemmy is rendering it wrong. I see the usual function.
You didn’t even need to click into the article to see that’s not true, it’s in the body of the post.
Can’t you ask for an ambulance when you call the emergency line? That’s how it is in Australia.
This is a great specific response based on the principle in my comment. Thank you for taking the time for OP and others. I feel like the Vega iGPU on the ryzen 5xxx is meant to be pretty good too right?
