If you punch someone on the nose, you can’t expect sympathy when they punch back. This isn’t going to produce the result Hamas was going for.

I’ll be the heretic here, but so far as I know you are only required to make source available when you distribute binaries. And for that matter, it doesn’t even have to be online just available upon request unless you’re using a derivative GPL that added online access as a clause.
I highly doubt the users of a web interface are required to be given access to source. There are multiple GPL-licensed web servers (I am well aware Apache is not btw) and I’ve never seen one embed a code link on every page.
Tl;Dr: Lemmy does it, but I believe it’s not required. Modify away if you so choose.
Unless you make it a point to procure an LTSC version, which Microsoft won’t even sell to you unless you have a site license.
LTSC is the only version of Windows that behaves like it’s still your computer, and I have uptime measured in months on a computer who serves Plex all day long.
Funny, Taffer was in my head when I was writing that. This is the level of come-to-Jesus Linus needs.
I expect today there’s a conversation going on between Terren, Yvonne and Linus:
"Linus, you need to decide if you want to be the public face and final authority of LMG, or if you want to be the owner of a successful business that you occasionally participate in with limited official interactions outside the board level.
If the company continues to have crisis moments and negative PR events on the scale we’ve had the past few days, you will be the owner of nothing but debt and depreciation. And frankly, I’m not going to stay here and ride the company down into disaster. You’re the owner, if you want to continue to run the company as it has been ultimately it’s your right but I will be stepping away. I implore you to make the right decision not just for yourself but all the employees at LMG who depend on their income from working here."
This is definitely hitting the nail on the head. Until the technology trickles down into the lower-end models, it’s not anywhere near as much a cost savings when you have to buy way up in trim level to get electric as an option.
It’s also worth noting that electric economy is notably worse in cold climates - your internal combustion car generates heat for ~free, the electric heater in your Tesla does draw a fair bit of current.
You got downvoted to hell, but you’re absolutely right. The fact that FDIC exists should be evidence enough to anyone with a functional brain that depositors in a bank are creditors and do not retain ownership of their literal deposit.
It seems like you made this comment in jest, but I wouldn’t say it’s outside the realm of possibility. We can’t fly off the handle and lob accusations absent any sort of proof, but it would hardly be the first example of a corporation targeting an up-and-coming disruptive service run by amateurs.
MOSFETs are less efficient outside their thermal envelope. At the micro-scale you’re talking about, you could be chasing loss of efficiency due to heat.
OP, couple things:
The trigger for that fan on signal is going to be heat, not wattage. Granted those things usually go hand in hand but there are a handful of reasons that could be responsible for the behavior you’re seeing:
Your PC is exhibiting an unusually high draw on one depreciated rail and pushing that part of the PSU near it’s limit. Legacy components can be good for this, -12V is a great example of a depreciated power supply voltage.
You’re seeing heat from something else soaking into the PSU. GPU is a good internal example. If you’re an audiophile, headphone amp is a good external one especially if it’s sitting on the tower.
PSUs are designed to allow other case ventilation to pass through them for cooling. You’ve probably got another non-PSU cooling issue - clogged filter, dead or dying fan, negative pressure.
Lastly, it’s hard for us to say whether that power draw is appropriate without knowing more about your PC. In general, for a desktop with a dedicated GPU it’s in the ballpark but again hard to nail down specifics. It’s a big ballpark. Things like what idle states are supported and enabled can easily account for 5W.
I actually took the other side of this argument when Lemmy was ramping up, that the concept of Federation needed to change to make the system more accessible to non-technical users. And I was told that my idea (federating the communities) was counter to the freedom that Lemmy was designed around.
It can’t be both ways. It’s a cathedral, or it’s a bazaar. But if it’s a bazaar then we have to deal with the reality that sometimes people beat us to the places we want and have different ideas for what they should be.
Nothing is stopping you from starting worldpolitics, globalpolitics, politics2 or politics on another instance.
I was more meaning wanting the admins to fuck around with the communities a la /u/spez.
How quickly we want to become Reddit I guess.
Yeah, I don’t even know if piracy is the right word for it when you take Copyright within it’s proper historical context.
Copyright existed as a bargain: the force of law protects your work for an exclusive period, and once that period is over, the work becomes part of the Public Domain for all to enjoy. It was originally set at 14 years with an optional one-time 14 year renewal.
Most of the games we’re talking about should be Public Domain by now. Like most everything in America today, the rich have managed to shift the balance significantly in their favor.
Windows 10 LTSC (for me) generally has uptime that is the equivalent of any Linux box. I’ve been using it to host Plex for several years - before hardware transcoding support in Linuxv was really up to snuff.
LTSC is what Windows should be. It’s a shame Microsoft doesn’t make it available (legally) to normal consumers.
I made a post that was similar a week or so back that was fairly controversial where I advocated changing how the federation protocol works. I’ve been thinking about it more, and I think I have a solution to your concern (and mine) that keeps the admins feelings about federation and not allowing one instance to dominate in mind.
On Reddit, especially old.reddit, when you search at the top you actually get two different search results: subreddits matching %string% at the top, posts matching %string% at the bottom.
We should mirror that. The current search should be modified in the same structure and pump the search string into https://browse.feddit.de/ or implement it’s process into the server code.
I think when someone types in android, getting a list of currently existing Lemmy communities with their respective populations and post counts is probably the easiest way to smooth out the learning curve.
Yes.
And to some of the child replies, I think there’s a question of scale that often gets overlooked. In all these discussions, there seems to be two different groups commingling: ones who just need 1-2 simultaneous streams, and ones who are doing true whole-house-plus systems.
I’m serving subtitles-enabled streams to (mostly) Roku clients - who need the server to burn in the subtitle track for some insane reason. It’s nothing for my Plexbox to be serving 6 simultaneous streams. A 4790K would definitely not cut it for me.
Honestly, don’t bother with a dGPU and get a 12th or 13th gen Intel Core chip with QSV. Intel quietly tuned it up to the point where it’s faster than nVidia’s NVENC engine even in the latest gen plus you don’t have mess around with the uncap streams hack and you’re transcoding through system RAM not dGPU RAM, so far less likely that your stream limit will be artificially constrained by memory limitations.
To answer the question you asked though, the nVidia NVENC is the best solution on a dGPU. It’s performance is largely the same across the same board generation, with one exception in the GTX 10X0 series. The absolute cheapest card you can lay your hands on that has an NVENC engine is the 1050TI.
The caveat is the 1070 and 1080 have two NVENC engines. It will double max number of streams in theory, however in reality you’re memory bound on those cards and it’s more like a 33% bump.
100% agreed. I’m not advocating we “clone Reddit”, however I do think we should think about and take meaningful steps to improve accessibility to non-“techy” people even if that means borrowing a few things from Reddit here and there.
Because let’s face it, Reddit wasn’t a whole-cloth original creation of spez and kn0thing. It’s bones can be traced back to Digg, vBulletin, earlier BBS incarnations, in some respects even USENET - especially the way users can create topics/communities/subreddits on their own (yes, I know this isn’t how USENET works now, but I promise it used to work this way if you were outside the main controlled newsgroups).
I’m a smart guy. I’ve got a lot of years of internet experience. I can make Lemmy work, and find content on it. It’s cumbersome. My wife, is very techy by any reasonable standard but not as much as I am, has difficulty using it. She finds the structure unintuitive and confusing.
If those of us participating in this thread are the 0.1%, she’s the 1%. To me, this moment, this movement, is about ensuring there’s a place where people are free to discuss things that monied interests can no longer control. That’s what makes the fediverse great - we can spread the load and demand out and make it manageable for normal people to do this.
I don’t want another schmuck coming along telling me what ad I have to look at, or what I’m not allowed to discuss, or what app I have to use ever again.
I’m not the smartest guy in the room, I’m not claiming to have the answer only a suggestion. However, I am confident that this is a problem we need to tackle in some way if we ever want to achieve growth in “normal users”.
