Tibert,

C’est quoi cet article de bouse. Elle est où leur source ? C’est la rédaction leur source ?

Je ne peux rien trouver comme source à cet article.

Donc sans source ou preuve que cet article est factuel, cet article est faux et une invention du journal qui est sûrement m*ique dans ce cas.

Si c’est du sarcasme ou je ne sais quoi, c’est totalement raté et nul. Ça paraît trop gros pour être vrai, ce qui pe s’en rapprocher, mais ce n’est pas du tout une bonne chose de propager de telles fausses infos.

Vu les autres articles de la rédaction, le journal est de la bouse.

Tibert,

J’ai quelques idées…

Comme il est indiqué sur les infos du site, d’après eux ils se sont séparés du figaro, et bien sûr comme l’URL du site est legorafi = lefigaro.

Ce serait donc un site exagéré parodique du figaro ?

Mais je ne sais même pas pourquoi le site existe encore… Je suppose il y a toujours des gens pour perdre leur temps à lire des articles inutiles…

(si l’objectif est de faire quelque chose de marrant, ca ne me fait pas rire des gens qui se font tirer dessus ou qq qui se lamente et fracasse la tête contre un mur…)

Tibert,

I finished Laika : Aged through blood. An indie metroidvania / 2d bike shooter / bullet time.

And i can say that it is, damn amazing!

It’s the story of a mother in a post-apocalyptic environment having to care for her daughter and village while doing the war outside.

Everything, art, music, is a masterpiece. The music is just extremely good.

Outside of special zones, there are 20 you have to find, and it cycles between them. All 20 are voice, with words or humming.

The story is good, and is extremely anti-war.

The gameplay feels amazing. It can be hard at first, but I quickly learned how to control the bike and and to do backflips and frontflips at the right time to reload guns and the pary.

The main character laika is one-shot, but the game isn’t very punishing. The respawn points aren’t too far away from each other, and they are optional. When you die, you loose a pouch with the currency, and can get it back.

There are some little issues with the game tho. It doesn’t tell that combo rewards more currency from enemies (it’s a timed combo, sho shooting will either increase or refresh the combo, and shooting flying bodies increases the combo up to 2 more times). The ending seems to also be a bit rushed. The ending boss isn’t that difficult, and there were some cuts it seems.

But overall these little issues aren’t that bad, and the game is still amazing.

Tibert,

Video? Is it my app or did you share the wrong link?

Tibert,

Nah, the game is utter trash not the bugs. Let’s look at 3 games very hyped :

  • Redfall : game had game breaking bugs and performance issues at launch. Gameplay was bad. No one played it.
  • Gollum : game had game breaking bugs and performance issues at launch. Gameplay was destroyed due to bugs. The studio closed their gaming branch.
  • Starfield : very hiped, bought by a lot of people, the game looks like 2010-15 game with some little 2023 enhancements…

Redfall and Gollum were failures. High budget failures. They most likely layed off people.

Starfield : Microsoft layed off people at the start of the year polygon.com/…/microsoft-layoffs-xbox-bethesda-hal… for who knows why. The game got delayed, and then it gets out very mixed due to bad exploration gameplay and no love put into population design (population characters look like 2010 or even worse).

All of these 3 games have been very hyped, with a high price, but none of their failure have anything to do with gamers “fault” and “opinion”. It’s all on the studios fault on not delivering something good.

Tibert,

One of your questions don’t seem to be that based?

“shits on Linux gamers”, are you talking about the store not beeing available on linux? Meh already got heroic which is better.

Their easy anticheat is available through proton tho, it’s on the game dev to chose to enable it or not (and I understand why they don’t do it for fortnite : the Linux market is pretty small, but also because the game is so huge that hackers will not hesitate a bit to switch to Linux in order to hack with custom kernels).

Tibert,

The issue is that even the same brand can have multiple USB fingerprint scanners, which may not all work.

From a 4y old reddit thread some person found a fingerprint scanner which worked, but some other person who had a similar one didn’t get it ot work.

reddit.com/…/i_finally_found_a_cheap_usb_fingerpr…

What distro would you recommend for a 32-bit old Acer One laptop? (kbin.social)

It's an old model (Acer One D257) Processor is Intel Atom. Memory is 1GB DDR3 with 320 GB of HDD. I currently Have MX 21 running on it, but I need to reinstall because I forgot the root password. Since I'm reinstalling the OS, I thought I'd ask here for recommendations for an OS that makes the most of this oldie.

Tibert,

I have no experience for this matter, nor a lot of Linux either, but there seem to be some interesting choices here (there isn’t best and worst, it’s just a list, and the most adapted to what you need).

itsfoss.com/32-bit-linux-distributions/

Obviously the minimum system requirements should not be your max amount of ram. You need to account for apps or tools you’ll run.

Tibert,

I don’t understand some things in the water consumption.

Why do they need to humidify the air for the datacenter?

Why is there water consumption for cooling? Aren’t they recirculating water used for watercooling? Or are they using f*ing tap water then throwing it out?

Water for electricity production, kinda, yes. Could be indirectly attributed to their water consumption as they are using the electricity produced by the sources using water.

Tibert, (edited )

Hey, for my recommendations keep in mind I did not use Linux as a main os for some time now. It is based on me following Linux channels and news, but also my past experience and installing it on my laptop and my brother’s laptop.

Linux distros are different in the packages they choose to include for their environment, use and desktop. Some distros offer different desktop environments (which are different desktop softwares, with different handling of included apps, settings and theming).

Depending on how well you know how to search online and not follow outdated advice, some different distros can be interesting :

Beginner friendly for Linux :

  • Linux Mint (cinnamon desktop)
  • Pop OS (gnome desktop)
  • Ubuntu (gnome desktop) (maybe, but I’d rather choose Pop OS due to snap packages of Ubuntu beeing forced and having lower quality compared to apt and flatpak)

All desktops can be themed. Tho cinnamon I don’t know how well it supports modifying the task bar.

Gnome can have extensions to do things, show a bottom task bar, start button, start menu…

For these 3 distros, the system package manager used (installer, app searcher) is apt-get (shortened to apt). It is a well k’ow package manager with plenty of tutorials online. All also include flatpak, which is a special package manager where apps Comme bundled with their own dependencies (software to make the main software work), and so reduce incompatibilities.

Ubuntu as a package manager called snap installed by default, it has the same objective as flatpak, but it is closed source, and already had issues with malware spreading through it.

Obviously all 3 package managers can have issues, as community is there to check the apps, but it may not always be safe. The safest package source is still the system one apt as packages are checked by the people maintaining the main distro repo. But many flastpaks and snaps are safe. (tho they can have some theming issues).

All of these 3 include a GUI store where you can search and install apps.

Another great distro which can work for beginner or advanced

  • Fedora desktop (gnome) (It is also available with the kde desktop). Tho this one has a smaller community, and so there is less useful help online, and there may be more out of date advice you would have to navigate through.

Fedora has a pretty good documentation, but even that one seems to be a bit out of date on some things.

If you have an nvidia driver, this one doesn’t have nvidia proprietary drivers installed by default nor help at the beginning on automatically installing them. You have to enable at install (or after in the store settings) the nvidia closed repo and install the nvidia driver from the store.

Kde as a desktop is pretty great, tho it can be overwhelming with all it’s settings and options available to the user.

Gnome tho still requires an app to be able to control hidden settings like mouse acceleration and some other settings.

I wouldn’t recommend other distros for beginner or someone who just wants to easy setup and work.

Debian is pretty stable even in its “testing” branch (Debian stable = old bur rock solid, not recommended for gaming. Testing = newish, still not breaking. Unstable = unstable) needs to have a manual install or help through someone’s script.

Manajaro is a mess. On some devices it will work, on other it will just desintegrate after some months.

Or the communities are so small that packages may easily pass testing and break.

Tibert,

Well fedora isn’t really a beginner friendly distro. The community is much smaller, and there is a lot more outdated or bad advice circulating when searching an issue.

When I installed fedora on my laptop some months ago, I wanted to switch the ffmpeg install and get codecs installed. Even fedora’s documentation was outdated.

Only by searching and digging in some websites I found a command I had to do to make it world, in order to switch the ffmpeg version away from the open fedora version…

Tibert, (edited )
  • Mint = the desktop is closer to windows look.
  • Pop os = the desktop is closer to mac look. With extensions and settings with those, it can be even closer.

However keep in mind that Pop OS is developing their own desktop to get away from gnome (the name of the desktop environment(DE) (the bunch of apps and tools making the desktop and settings work)).

That new DE will most likely not be compatible with gnome extensions. And I don’t know how it will look.

For functionality, both work pretty well.

  • Pop os has 2 ISO : one which includes the nvidia driver, and another without the Nvidia driver, should be easy to download the right one.
  • Mint I don’t remember exactly how it works, but it should be easy enough to download and install the proprietary nvidia driver, either through a driver tool, or through the store.
  • Pop os has a gnome extension which allow you to switch from integrated gpu / hybrid / nvidia “only” directly from the notification menu.
  • to switch in mint, you need to open the nvidia control panel.

Both need a reboot or log out to switch gpu mode.

(keep in mind, the Nvidia gpu consumes a lot more than the cpu integrated one. In hybrid, nvidia gpus canot be put to 0w sleep yet, so it will still consume some power).

Both need a special argument for app launch or steam launch arguments to launch with the nvidia gpu if you set hybrid.

For boot :

  • Pop os bypasses grub (a Linux boot menu), so to choose the os to boot from, you’ll have to either use your laptop’s boot menu or the bios priority.
  • Mint has a grub boot menu displayed each time. So if you choose mint as priority boot, you can at boot still choose windows (about 5-10 sec to use the arrows to boot into something else than mint).

Disadvantage :

  • Pop OS still needs an additional app to be able to change all settings, including mouse acceleration (say thanks to gnome devs, theming has become harder to do for non gnome standard themes).
  • Mint : they only now made plans to develop their DE to support Wayland (a new window manager explained a bit further), and so you could have a bit less track pad fluidity (no 1to1 gestures … ). Tho as the DE used is cinnamon, there is less use of track pad gestures.

About Wayland : it’s a “new” windows manager (what allows apps to be displayed, and how they interact with each other). It is a hopeful replacement for X11 (released in 198X, before Linux…) full of issues but still working well for what it has to do. Wayland wants to bring enhancements on security, gesture fluidity and many other things. However it is not yet fully developed and you shouldn’t really base your decision on it yet.

For the rest. I don’t really remember other disadvantages as i don’t really use them anymore.

Tibert,

There is a lot to learn for Linux. Search engines are your best friend. Tho sometimes advice is outdated. There are also some discord servers where help exists, tho they also expect someone asking to do their research.

I mostly learned by YouTube, then doing research on Google and other search engines, on forums… Discord servers were my last resort when I had some specific question.

Linux for all : discord.gg/eSP6cXjY4BGaming on Linux : discord.gg/AghnYbMjYgThe Linux experiment (YouTuber) also has a discord server…

Hey on android? Didn’t know simplemobiletools was sold. Should be fine if updates are disabled from play store and only f-droid versions are used.

But for alternatives :

For a gallery app, I find Aves to look pretty good and has many great features github.com/deckerst/aves

If you need gallery (still not that great yet) & backup : ente gallery (there are other ente apps too) ente.io

For a calendar no idea.

Tibert, (edited )

This : github.com/SimpleMobileTools/…/241

As explained sold to ZipoApps (low quality add ridden shovelware, with extremely high price /week to remove adds, from the git discussion).

From a reddit post reddit.com/…/simplemobiletools_was_sold_alternati…

There seems to already be a fork : github.com/FossifyX

Tho not sure how trusted it can be, but seems to have some hope.

The reddit post also suggests some alternatives. The comments in that post also suggests more alternatives.

Tibert,

Selon l’article, les deux seront utilisables, et seulement ces deux là : tchap et Olvid

Tibert,

olvid.io/pricing/fr/

Les fonctionnalités avancées, multi appareil et appels sont payantes.

Tibert,

There is a way to create a Google account with an external email address. If you don’t have anything tied to your Google original account, it could be a way to access Google tools.

Tibert,

It was something else. Web drm : Web Integrity API.

Tho I don’t think they canceled the mobile variant of it for apps.

Tibert,

Rather push by Microsoft instead of Google?

Tibert,

I got it for free on EGS, and well, I can say that it is good.

Tho it is badly optimised for windows/pc. Maybe because I have an amd gpu or not?

There were settings I had to play with to find and get a smooth experience even with a rx 6950 xt and r5 5800x3d.

It’s a great action packed game, nice to try.

Tibert,

Florisboard git > discussions (in the menu should be after pull requests)

Tibert,

Currently florisboard doesn’t have prediction nor autocorrect prediction.

Due to complications in the development of that feature (either too heavy to run or not smart enough for prediction…) and the development of the app got stuck, until maybe recently where it seems to get some dev attraction on some topics.

Tho the prediction is still stuck. So you won’t have yet prediction or smart things in this keyboard.

Tibert,

It may depends on your rom/os brand. On my device (oxygen os 13.x), I can restrict access somewhere deep into mobile network settings (the translation may not be good as I have it in French) :

Settings > mobile network > data consumption > network access.

And here I see all apps. I can restrict mobile network, WiFi or both.

Tibert,

I find Lemmy works pretty well for a decentralised network.

It is possible to see what everyone has been subscribed to when sorting by all, and so subscribe myself to it to get it in my subscription feed.

There are nice apps like Liftoff which can manage multiple accounts at the same time, and even view instances all feed without an account on them.

Mastodon on the other hand is a bit lackluster in comparison I’d say. The subscription model is pretty had to start using as I need to either find # or people to subscribe to, and even subscribing to them. And even after doing that the posts aren’t that interesting or feel empty due to no comments/likes/boost.

Maybe I subscribed to the wrong #, but I find Lemmy much more enticing than mastodon.

Tibert,

An adblock dns, something like nextdns, or others won’t do anything to harm you Internet speed. They are just resolving a dns query, and saying nothing or no to a blocked query.

It can catch what cannot be blocked by an adblockers on the device, because outside of the website or something.

I don’t know about pihole tho.

Tibert,

Well, the whole point of otp tokens/2fa, is to have a second login confirmation. Mostly on another device, like a phone.

Now maybe if you store your 2fa way on the same device, but locked away with a strong password, it may work, and could be safe enough.

But if it’s the same password as your device or another account, it isn’t that safe.

Tibert,

The mx5 only support sbc (minimum to support) aac and LDAC. They dropped aptx to only use their own high latency (and not that much better) codec. The headphone has BT 5.3, but does not support LC3 (an extremely good, low latency codec integrated in base bluetooth).

If you want to check what codec is used in windows, or change, there is a tool : www.bluetoothgoodies.com/a2dp/

Not sure if it’s free or free trial. But they also have a software allowing to check what is currently in use which is a free trial.

Tibert,

This post : When stupid people read company news

(great ceo choice, she has experience in communication, which is the main thing a ceo has to do for gnome. She doesn’t need to do or participate deeply in development.

And shaman, well whatever, why do you even care?)

Tibert, (edited )

Personnellement je détesterais voir ça dans un texte. Je n’y comprendrais pas grand chose.

  • iel n’a aucun sens pour moi, étant un mot singulier, soit il soit elle ?
  • Adelphe ? Pour frère/soeur je suppose. Mais vu que je ne l’ai jamais utilisé je n’ai pas compris ce que ça voulais dire avant de chercher.
  • Celleux… J’ai du regarder un peu pour comprendre que c’est dérivé de celles et ceux.
Tibert,

Most intel driver news you’ll see will most certainly be about the ARC gpus. The integrated gpus not beeing that much worked on for performance and gaming.

Tibert,

S takes. Intel is a new player with a lot less experience creating drivers for dedicated gpus and gaming.

So it’s not about beeing “crap”.

It’s about beeing impressive that they still support their new linup while increasing the competition pressure on amd and nvidia. They are getting better and better with time, amd maybe at one point, or with next gen we’ll get competition forcing the 2 old ones to get better pricing.

Tibert,

I’m not sure if I understand this very well, and how small these could be built.

But let’s look at the computer cpus. It maybe would allow for a better heat management in these chips.

When a cpu is designed, the engineers have no idea where the hot-spot is. After plenty of testing, a general spot for a termal probe would be found. However that spot may not be the real hot spot, due to limitations in the design and other factors, like the uneven dissipation of heat in the chip. So there is a tollererance used to prevent the chip from burning itself.

Maybe these thermal transistors could transfer the heat where it really matters and even out how the head gets out of the cpu, which would possibly enhance that heat management and get better results.

I don’t remember exactly where this cpu temperature probe limitation was discussed. It would be in one of these 2 videos from Der8auer :

Tibert,

I don’t use chromium, did not test currently.

But I just saw a video about a chromium browser : Thorium.

It’s chromium but with many hardware acceleration, speed, and compatibility enhancements coming from multiple sources and from the guy developing it on github, making it very fast and nicer to use than default chromium.

It has Google sync, so it’s not ungoogled, but it has way less bload and more privacy than chrome.

youtu.be/naDYUVFs1-8?si=Rd6Un0OKANEQHktH

The link to the browser website : thorium.rocks

Tibert,

Don’t know, not using ublock origin. I use enhancer for YouTube on Firefox, and still not seeing any pop up.

Tho I have it set to allow ads for subscribed channels. Tho the setting seems bugged as a feature where most video ads get blocked, but some of them still run sometimes at the start of the video. The square adds on the side aren’t blocked either, but they are not a hindrance.

Tibert,

The thing written in the first sentence in the f-droid store. Just there go look, it’s soo hard… You also have all the codeberg link there…

More seriously, it’s a fork from infinity for reddit but for Lemmy. codeberg.org/Bazsalanszky/Eternity

Tibert, (edited )

The Hot sort seems to show new and sligly older content, with an enphasis on new. So I just sort by hot, as the algorithm is pretty good for that.

And mostly on subscribed. All being mostly to discover other things.

Only posts originating from your instance.

So only posts made by people from lemmy.world.

When you post something, the post is on lemmy.world.

For example, this is your post lemmy.world/post/7469149 . If you would post to another community, it would still be lemmy.world/post/xxx even if the community isn’t on lemmy.world. But the post is attached to that community.

All is all the post from all the communities the accounts in your instance are subscribed to.

Tibert,

This tech seems cool for people who may need it, or even just for fitness or other things.

But if Google is behind using the data to whatever money purpose (like selling ads), it becomes a bit bad.

Tho they would already do so with watches or other health tech connecting to their services. So 🤷. If people have already choose a Google product for health, it doesn’t change much, it’s just another cool tech to the collection.

Tibert,

Well what if I’m just not inteterested in YouTube music (just because I don’t listed to a lot of music)?

It does make the deal a lot worse.

Tibert,

Currently, there are some alternatives, or bluetooth versions which work pretty well.

Often wireless gaming brands offer a usb dongle. That dongle often uses a proprietary protocol over 2.4ghz. And allow enough bandwidth for audio and mic. Some brand give more or less bandwidth to the mic, or have better compression, or bandwidth.

And currently, there is a fairly “new”, already here since bt 5.3 : LC3. It’s a very well optimised protocol which allows for about the same quality at lower bandwidth than other protocol. It also has lower latency. This protocol has started to be used by gaming brands, like Creative, in a usb dongle. Or even in standalone headphones. On the Creative headset, it would allow enough bandwidth for audio and mic without much compromise (like if it wad a proprietary dongle).

Obviously the quality may not be as good as wired. But it should be enough for most people.

Huawei also seems to have announced (not sure if yet released, it should be in an honor phone), their bluetooth competitor. They say 6x faster (more bandwidth I guess) newatlas.com/…/nearlink-wireless-huawei/.

Tibert,

The battery optimisation and app prediction (loading apps into memory so they start faster).

Charging optimisation on some phones.

And maybe other things. Can depend on the brand, software and used apps.

Tibert,

There are some useful things in there, but it can get complicated. If i could get to Linux I wouldn’t need a lot of this stuff, or at least I wouldn’t need to think about it.

Tho I can’t get to it yet (and no I’m not willing to do a windows vm), because of 2 things :

  • I’m playing warframe, and sometimes I open alecafrale in the background with the overlays to know what reward to pick. And it seems they overwolf and the app is not compatible with Linux, at least from what I could read.
  • I am using gpu virtualisation to share my pc occasionally with my brother. And on Linux, there is an alternative with LIBVF.IO. but sadly, not compatible with newer amd gpus, or at least from the tutorial and arch wiki, pretty complicated to make it run, if even possible.

When these 2 things would be fixed, maybe I’ll consider it, if i don’t have to switch to windows every 2 days…

Tibert,
Tibert,

It requires powerful gpus yes but not always. It depends a lot on how fast you want it to run. Microsoft and openai need powerful ai gpus because they have a lot of requests, data and want it to go fast. The dataset may also require to be stored in memory or gpu memory for fast access and use by the ai.

For Llama, it has been released as open source. And what is amazing about open source, is the community. A Llama entirely in c++ has been created github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp .

And someone even managed to make it run, fast enough, on a phone with 8gb of available ram github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/discussions/750 . Tho with a smaller dataset.
