I've been using Neo Launcher for a while, no complaints

How do the Jewish Torah and Talmud fare? Are there much more authoritative texts for those and the Quran?

What are some privacy focused forms of entertainment? by DARbarian in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 18 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Personally I haven't really changed anything about my entertainment other than how I attain it. Torrented movies, shows, and books, cracked games, and ad+sponsor blocked YT via Piped mean I get all the same entertainment as ever if not more (plus I actually own it forever). The only thing I'll admit I miss a bit is Reddit.

Why not just let Watchtower do it for you?

I spent a 2+ years and all my personal savings making this game (alone). What is the best things or methods to optimize my game? I use Unity engine and C# by DARbarian in c/[email protected]

Bro you've already been told on at least one other programmer humor community to stop shilling your mediocre Long Dark rip-off here. Take this to game dev or indie studio / creator communities

Is Conduit (Matrix server) sustainable, do some of you host it? by DARbarian in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I use Conduit for myself and a couple friends to chat while gaming. It was a bit finicky to setup with the TURN server, but once it was running it's been great. Even has sliding sync for Element X. Only thing I'm still struggling with is setting up Webhook notifications.

Matrix Webhook Help (kbin.run)

submitted 2 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

So I've been trying to setup the nim65s/matrix-webhook Docker container but cannot for the life of me get it to work.

Has anybody managed to get this up and running? I had it on my Pi 4, but since moving to the Pi 5 cannot swing it.

It should be easy, just passing along environment variables, but nothing I've tried works and I can never get any logs or output from the container for clues.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

First things first, pull up Trash Guides and set up the *Arr stack -- Sonarr for shows, Radarr for movies, Bazarr for subs, and Prowlarr for indexers/trackers. Then setup transmission+OpenVPN or something similar to torrent behind a VPN. Finally, hook up Jellyfin so you can serve the media.

Currently running Garuda for gaming and OpenSUSE Tumbleweed for everything else. Very much look forward to combining them in my own Arch/Void install when I get my new laptop.

Can I ask why you're switching?

Capital One Mobile App Not Working (kbin.run)

Has anybody else had problems using the Capital One mobile app? I have a Samsung S21 Ultra 5G that I thoroughly degoogled and de-Samsung'd over a year ago. No problems running any other apps including Key Bank, Charles Schwab, Tile, etc. but Capital One will not even load to the login screen. Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Missing Icons (kbin.run)

For a while now my Librewolf installation has been very weird with icons, converting them to little rectangles with what looks like UTF codes in them. On Piped for example, instead of the play icon it shows the literal word "play". Anybody know what may be causing this and/or how to fix it?

How To Improve Pi 5 Cooling (kbin.run)

submitted 3 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

So I've got an 8GB Pi 5 with the offical Active Cooler and then the Pineberry NVME HAT on top in the Pi52 tall alumnium cooling case and thermals are not great. Looking for guidance and/or recommendations.

I already have the active cooler so I'm all out of fan headers, and I have 3 hard drives plugged in so I'm not sure about powering a whole USB fan.

I saw that Noctua finally came out with their desk fan and thought that may be a perfect solution. I was thinking of just slapping it under the Pi, but I was wondering if this would even make a difference.

Also wondering what the best configuration would be between push/pull & bottom/top or if anybody has better ideas, I'm all ears. Thank y'all!

Honestly, I think you summed up the biggest issues. As much as I look forward to getting a Pixel for my next phone solely for GrapheneOS, it's understandable for people looking to degoogle to not want to buy a Google phone. The developer I think is the bigger issue. Despite having since stepped down, his behavior went unchecked for long enough to make quite a bad reputation and leave a bad taste in a lot of people's mouths. While recovering from that will simply take time, I have wondered why they haven't taken the opportunity to come out with a Graphene-lite for non-Pixels. Something like CarbonOS as secure as possible sans Google hardware. Could easily overtake Calyx/Lineage.
