I did but that was mostly my own doing.

Steam Deck@sopuli.xyz•What is your favorite Steam deck Bluetooth keyboard?
7·4 months agoI’ve been using the K380 and pebble mouse. It’s not large, so probably not for you. You can buy the pebble 2 combo now. I bought a basic leather case for the k380 which works fine.
It got a weird issue a couple years in where it never powers down, so for travel I remove one of the AAA batteries and slide that into the case next to it. The pebble mouse has never acted up. A couple of keycaps on the k380 also fell off before I got to he case, so I would say that if you’re carrying it in a backpack I’d definitely recommend getting a case.
Overall, though, it keeps chugging without much more issue. I also reconfigured the keycaps to reflect my Dvorak layout without any special tools.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why did my kid ask what date it is and then say, "6-7?" And then laugh.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you have to be fluent in these languages to be a polyglot, or am I considered one?
202·6 months agoA polyglot is anyone who speaks way more languages than you feel comfortable with. /j
I use krita mostly to draw out my crazy ideas in hopes that I might actually refine them later, only for them to sit in shadow for the rest of time.
Sudo is like the safety on a firearm. It’s there to hopefully prevent you from shooting yourself in the foot. It won’t stop you if you’re determined enough, though.
Ah, wasn’t aware. Will have to look into it more.
In the case of steam and web browser, the containerization means I can control their access permissions via flatseal. This adds another layer of security, since they’re both web-accessing applications, and it’s easier than setting up a VM to run those applications.
When using certain apps I prefer them being containerized on my system. It’s case-by-case for me. I keep steam containerized, my web browser containerized, etc.
Yeah, flatseal should come stock with flatpak IMO. You will have to configure many apps to get them to play nice with your system.
I use apt and flatpak. They both are good for what they do.
Yeah, that’s the nature of mass adoption, is that people you don’t like start coming into the community.
This always happens. A community stays intact so long as it stays niche, but once it reaches mass adoption, that community splinters into smaller communities.
The ‘Linux community’ will eventually cease to exist and will be replaced with communities who use Linux in specific fashions.

linuxmemes@lemmy.world•PewDiePie goes full Linux! Year of the Linux desktop!
252·7 months agoYou don’t need to worry about it. His new content is that of a completely different person, and it’s been more than half a decade since his last controversy.
don't look
Again, I genuinely feel that Pewds’ content has changed dramatically since his early days, for the better. He seems much more considerate, thoughtful with what he says, and mellower in general. I don’t think anyone should feel bad at all for liking his recent content.
But you clicked this so…
I’m gonna stick to things Pewds drew controversy over that were actually on video. Not laying out accusations, just laying out why he’s a controversial figure in an unbiased fashion.
Forewarning, some of this is heavy.
Pewdiepie was a very edgy youtuber for most of his career, usually laying out unfiltered hot takes. They were all pretty normal edgy guy things. Think Idubbbz in terms of flavor.
I will say that I personally noticed a major change in his content after his slogan "Subscribe to PewDiePie" was used in the Christchurch mosque shooting in 2019. I think he realized just how toxic portions of his audience were from that tragedy, and ended up changing direction because of that. That was also mostly not in his control.
There were something like half-a-dozen controversies directly caused by his own actions, such as when he payed two people on fiver who didn’t speak English to hold up a sign reading “death to all jews”, and calling it a social experiment to show how people will do anything for money.
Another time he faced backlash for saying the N word during a livestream.
He also said he joined ISIS as a joke at one point.
Most of his controversies are like this, where he does some edgy inflammatory shit, realizes he went to far, apologizes, then everything goes back to the way it was before.
He started YouTube in 2006, then again in 2010 under PewDiePie. It’s been more than a decade either way. It’s been 6 years since his last controversy. I wouldn’t worry about how people judge him now.

linuxmemes@lemmy.world•made a Linux community all about customizing your distro (link in the body)
3·7 months agoCongrats on the community taking off now. Looks like it’ll have activity for at least a little while
Could you do risky CLI commands like this in distrobox to avoid damaging your main OS image?
That’s a view from the perspective of utility, yeah. The downvotes here are likely also from a ethics standpoint, since most LLMs currently trained are doing so by using other peoples’ work without permission, all while using large amounts of water for cooling, and energy from our mostly coal-powered grid. This is also not mentioning the physical and emotional labor that many untrained workers are required to do when sifting through the datasets of these LLMs, removing unsavory data for extremely low wages.
A smaller, more specialized LLM could likely perform this same functionality with a much less training, on a more exclusive data set (probably only a couple of terabytes at its largest I’d wager), and would likely be small enough to run on most users’ computers after training. That’d be the more ethical version of this use case.
And we can see by the ratio that this was in fact a hot take.
Not supported by blender so far!
