Technology@lemmy.world•Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney supports the $900 million lawsuit against Valve, arguing Steam is "the only major store still holding onto payment ties and 30% junk fee"English
13·27 天前I think the problem you’re running into is that Valve isn’t doing nothing with that pay.
Like valve is actively making my gaming experience better by developing cheap hardware and a good system for gaming on Linux.
All the games I’ve ever bought, regardless of if they still sell them are in my library.
My save files are cloud synced for free.
I as the end user am having a good time.
I also have a sunk cost thing going on. I’ve been trying to buy and play more GOG games but I just have so much that works already on Linux without any work that it’s hard to justify the tinker time to get it working otherwise.
They provide such a good service I think we’ve all forgotten about the children casinos for CSGO2 skins, but even that they’re fixing (kinda).
Maybe its just nice to not be mad about something. Like its just video games, I don’t really care if Valve has a monopoly on that since 1) Experience is good 2) they’re not trying to have like a monopoly on water or something important. Bad take maybe, but there’s enough going on that I just don’t know if I could make myself care that valve is like 90% of videogame sales. Or whatever it is.
FreeCAD isn’t terrible if you haven’t already learned F360
I had to watch a bunch of videos on FreeCAD to sorta unlearn the work flow of F360 stuff but its not bad.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•External HDD docking station + laptop/SFF/thin client vs ATX tower w/ internal mounts for NAS?English
0·3 个月前There’s a few options now, but you can get Intel N100 ITX boards Like this one from ASUS with a soldered on N100 CPU for the cost of a normal motherboard.
If its just a NAS, and I do recommend having a separate Just a NAS, that CPU fucks hard.

1237·3 个月前TL:DW;
Mr. Nexus still thinks its news that, under capitalism, production of luxury goods will always be sold to the highest bidder and not “the masses”
I didn’t watch it either. But its about Micron no longer selling consumer ram in favor of the AI industry customer.
I actually just want them to make proton drive work on Linux. That’s all I need.

3·3 个月前Well seeing as its invite only still. Probably not yet.
I doubt anything that tightly under the creators control is going to be “soiled” yet

Linux@lemmy.ml•What are the best reasons people have given you for not wanting to try Linux?
4·3 个月前Oh man, Teams +Outlook + Office 365 + onedrive +Copilot?
So good for office shit. So bad for hood practices.
“Hey copilot I’m pretty sure I got an email asking if I had an SOP on X. Can you find that email and the SOP?”
“Copilot, using the recording of the teams meeting ‘Training from Vendor X’ and my notes on ‘Tool Y’ can you compile that into a FAQ sheet for us?”
Sure it misses stuff and is only so good because none of the data is private, but man that’s 90% of my work load for SOP making. Worth the $400 a year corporate pays for it.

Kinda shocked I’ve never seen a “worlds richest gay man!” Headline. That feels like low hanging fru-
I was not going to buy a gabencube but now I might.
The only real knock against him is the child gambling with lootboxes thing, but that’s seemingly going away very slowly.

4·4 个月前What are you talking about? When was the last time you tried this?
And if you just want a NAS? It is really hard to go wrong with a 4 bay NAS from one of the reputable vendors (which may just be ugreen at this point?) as those tend to still come out cheaper than building it yourself and 4 disks means you can either play with fire with RAID5 or not be stupid and do RAID1.
Actually ASUS started to sell N100 motherboards with the CPU soldered on for $120
That plus a jonsbo N2 or N3, a few extra pieces, and its a few hundred dollars cheaper than the Ugreen options. Sure it will probably run Truenas instead of Ugreens custom truenas or whatever its built on, but that extra $300 is another 24TB hard drive or a HexOS lifetime subscription.
There’s also always the classic buy an old mid sized tower for $100 and slap two massive hard drives in it

Technology@lemmy.world•Automattic CEO calls Tumblr his 'biggest failure' so farEnglish
3·4 个月前To be fair, IF tumblr had added the tipping feature while porn was huge on the site, it might have became Onlyfans.
OF wasn’t always a porn site. It was trying to be a Patron that allowed adult content, but it became just a porn site.
I argue something similar would have happened to tumblr

Yeah that’s what’s going to happen with the main blog.
Forgejo action > static HTML site > Cloudflared tunnel
This separate idea is to have a Lemmy instance to host pictures and federate the blogs comment system so people ideally won’t have to sign in or make an account to comment.
