Hands Up Who Wants To Die - L'inconnue - Lemmy.World

Just discovered these guys last night. This goes so damn hard.

I wrote an article about Luddism and Linux. - Lemmy.World

I am now a published author.

So it seems like the Archcraft Discord server has a Nazi problem. - Lemmy.World

I left the server right after taking the screenshot. I do not have any interest in debating either trolls or fascists. [https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/ac88c509-1314-41c1-9ce3-94086d7695ff.png]

Bill Gates is a horrible person. - Lemmy.World

So I just read Bill Gates’ 1976 Open Letter To Hobbyists, in which he whines about not making more money from his software. You know, instead of being proud of making software that people wanted to use. And then the bastard went on and made proprietary licences for software the industry standard, holding back innovation and freedom for decades. What a douche canoe.

(Posting on behalf of the dev) NEWM needs a helping hand! - Lemmy.World

Hi, all. I hope you are doing well. TL;DR, there is a very creative Wayland compositor named NEWM that needs some help being maintained. If you are at all interested, follow the Github link and check it out. So a while ago I stumbled upon NEWM, a fascinating Wayland compositor made with laptops and trackpads in mind. It operates similarly to scrolling compositors such as Niri, yet also very differently. Really, there is no comparison to be drawn, as NEWM does something quite unique. Unfortunately, the project is barely being maintained at the moment. There is only one dev still attached to it, and he has a full time job, which makes things tricky. I’m not any kind of coder to speak of, so I would be of no use on that front. But I spoke to him, and he said I could reach out here and try to find someone who wants to tinker with it. As far as I understand it, the main issue right now is getting NEWM up to date with wlroots. If you have any Python / Wayland experience, any contribution would be greatly appreciated. There is also a Discord where you can talk to the dev directly to coordinate your efforts. Thanks in advance.

Plex or Jellyfin for my Raspberry Pi? - Lemmy.World

Hi, all. So I want to set up a media server using my Raspberry Pi. It will be used by me and my partner, who is very much tech illiterate. She knows how to use Plex, but I’m tempted by the open nature of Jellyfin. How steep is the learning curve there? Should I just go with Plex and keep it simple? Or is Jellyfin manageable if I set it up for her?

I just watched Speed Racer(2008). It's a masterpiece. - Lemmy.World

Seriously. Just watch it. It’s so incredibly good.

Not sure where to post this. Remove it if it doesn't fit. - Lemmy.World
