I can see that. When will you start?

tangential: I‘m using a oneplus 6 with postmarketOS but depending on your friend‘s it skills, it might not be ready for him yet.
So far its very usable but I suggest someone must want to swim against the current and do things differently. One could say a „pioneer“ type would be ideal for this.
„Simple“
I agree that being active is important and good for you but depending on the circumstances its everything but simple.
I aspire to move a lot but the day being this active becomes easy will he the day. :)
My first instinct was „meh“ but this reads like a great guide for non tech users to grasp the fedi.
The „maya“ convo strongly reminded me of green hell.
Otherwise it looks cool. The synced wolves need some work I guess. I wishlisted it. Good luck!
Btw. What engine?
Exactly my point. I tried installing it and it was great fun but under no circumstances is that “beginner ready”.
Hi there, whoever suggested linux for your switch played a mean joke on you. Granted, arch works well if you know what you‘re doing, apparently. But no way it is a good starting distro.
I‘m not sure how eldenring works on linux but most games run without problems.
One little caveat is this: you need to understand that windows is a billion dollar product while linux is mostly community driven. It costs nothing, except many people donating their time. So I‘d suggest adopting a „its insane that hobbyists are able to build something like this“ view. Otherwise you‘ll get frustrated and will end up im privacy invasive windows territory again.
If you want a more gaming ready distro, try pop os or bazzite. Good luck
Thanks for commenting on this. It‘s cool to have more peeps share their experiences.
On the lemmy part I‘m partly with you. Lemmy itself is not the issue. It is what it does with postgres. I have multiple postgres instances, one for each service. The lemmy postgres is insane while the mastodon postgres is easy on the cpu.
Glad to hear it! :) have a good one!
Thanks. :) good luck!
I use „tasks“ for that. When i prepare to go grocery shopping I go to my fridge, open the completed „shopping“ tasks list and uncomplete what is empty. I then complete them again in the mall. Of course the list is hosted on my server.
You can also have a barcode scanner to automate the „done“ action. You could also put in a timer to automatically make things undone if they need regular buying.
In any case, using ai voice recognition for this is a massive waste of computing power for things that can be done by simple if else statements. Of course it is also a massive privacy invasion if you use big tech stuff for it.
The big difference is in the details.
Italians dont cook your pasta in that wheel. They throw it in there and shove it around. Its no comparison to that center console by any stretch. The countries that munch on raw fat are usually freezing cold and very rough in terms of manual labor conditions. People burn through double the amount of calories or more if they have heavy manual labor and cold climate.
Maybe not the spaniards though. ;)
Hi there! Thanks for taking the time to answer my comment. You folks are doing incredible work and I wanted to say thanks! :)
Sadly, I‘m not a database expert, otherwise I would help. So donations are the only form I can help with at this point.
From other comments I read, the database seems to be the issue, not lemmy. Is uses postgres and that uses the resources. Lemmy itself is no problem.
Lemmy is heavier on the cpu than for example mastodon or matrix are but a lot less on the harddrive. Its insane. I use matrix the most, then lemmy, then mastodon. Still, mastodon sucks hdd like crazy, matrix as well. Only lemmy is easy on the hdd.
Of course I‘m running private instances. You can never know why public instances go bonkers. Maybe someone is abusing it for other things.
Anyway, lemmy does have some moderation tools but I agree. They need work. You have to know a lot about linux, databases and have to figure out a lot of stuff if you have problems with lemmy. Thats not okay.
But as always with foss. If you run a public instance, you should accept donations and if they dont cover the costs so you can pay someone to make a fork for you that has what you need, you might be doing something wrong.
Not annoying at all.
I‘m running a public instance on two threads and I think 2 gb of ram. A private instance shared with other services on 6 threads and 8 gb of ram. Make of that what you want. :)
I would probably rent a vps which you could extend if needed but start small. With 2 threads and 4 gb of ram at least.
Anecdotal evidence: I run two instances, a private and a public one. Neither uses a lot of resources.
But I get the database thing. Its spiking every couple minutes and a lot every hour. It’s not a big deal if you have 2 threads at least but I can see how it doesnt work for everyone in every scenario.
I‘m glad alternatives exist and I‘m much more positive on AP alternatives than protocol exiles.
First of all, people sometimes use analogies that dont make sense to you. No need to be a dick about it. You could just make a better example.
Staying with cars, I see my mistake. Valve is not producing the cars in this example, valve is doing the car sales for the (small) manufacturer. They dont provide any part of the car, only the exposure and surrounding community. Its not nothing but has zero to do with the product.
What they are asking is „you can sell cars from our showroom, just dont sell them for cheaper than we do“. Which does make sense.
Imagine living in a country where prisons are for profit.
