Same here, got locked out of my main gmail/google account and there was no real person to help me recover 10+ years of my stuff. Never again.

I remember back in the day getting my mind blown by the BB demo on a live Linux CD (Knoppix?)

I only know the library for doing this stuff is libcaca just because it’s libpoop in spanish

There are cracked wings with patches that will let you take flight!

Is there a demo? How does it run? Needs a server or can be run from an android device?

The cumulative hours we’ve lost screwing around with the manual placement spacial audio on Axon… When it went tits up we switched to Mumble tho

Randy deemed the switch to not be premium enough

Mine does this too! He’d bring the toy right to my feet the first few times, then it’ll drop it increasingly further away from me

As in “does have a somewhat modern flatpak package version that won’t cause issues with stuff off flathub”

I’ll dig it up and try it, thanks!

At least does stable support Flatpaks now? Got an old T60 I might get out of retirement, because fuck buying a computer these days

Here’s the obligatory upvote for referencing http.cat

Never got my Bose QC35 ii to work properly, seems like a limitation of Bluetooth. Ended up buying a yeti snowball and its far better than any headset mic I’ve ever used.

Oh wow I didnt know retroarch had WebDAV!

How about the “private notes” chat on Signal?

The real question is, “which one of the gazillion voice chat apps can properly filter audio without a lengthy setup that my mongoloid friends will skip?”

I am the guy moving the group to different apps and platforms, some follow more reluctantly but in the end we stick together. We’ve jumped from TS2 to Skype, Dolby Axon, Mumble, Hangouts, Discord, Mumble and back to Discord. Now I’m getting a strong whiff of enshittification, and I’m weighing my options. We’re about 10-12 but mostly 4 or 5 active at a time.

Jami, Matrix, Jitsi, Rocket and again ol reliable Mumble… It’d be nice if mumble had screen share and a better automatic audio setup, so far the best quality of vc over any other app/service.

I’ll check out Movim I saw named in the comments, any other hidden gem I should try?

This! I’d say that the best we can do is educate. Over the last 20 years people got taught to be lazy and go with the herd. They don’t want to change, all their stuff is already “in the cloud” and “I don’t have time to go tinker with that nerd stuff, I need something that works”.

“Why learn a new messaging app if everyone is using WhatsApp already”

Sorry, I jumped ship before that feature was a thing. I think it’s exclusive to “pro” win10 but I remember a relative using it. Windows 2 go or something like that was the name.

Anyway, happy new year, and hope you can figure it out!

Create a windows to go install on a USB to NVMe caddy, use something like nano11 and set the BIOS to boot off the NVMe. Whenever the kiddo wants to play fortnite, just plug the device and reboot

This is to avoid windows overwriting your EFI partition and nuking your bootloader at random times, the reason I stopped dual booting after win 8.1

With all those conky widgets I bet I could middle click on that desktop and drag the mouse to flip the desktop cube!

It’s not labour of love if that’s the game’s business model. IMO No Man’s Sky keeps being the top dog here.

We’ve spent last few months playing Enshrouded. The dedicated server is a resource hog tho, even on an empty server it’d use a ton of CPU time. Still lots of fun with a few friends exploring and building stuff
