Would be nice if it could be set as some kind of post / comment metadata, hidden from view but there in the code.

That would make a nice Linux-based gaming PC for my kids that is for sure.

Seems like a good time to introduce a breaking change, jumping from 0.19 to 1.0.

Until then https://lemmyverse.link/feddit.org/post/5390705 ;)

Another issue is that post links are instance-specific, since the post ID isn’t the same across instances.

ex: https://lemmy.ml/post/27659153 is https://lemmy.ca/post/41237641 on Lemmy.ca

There are external tools like https://lemmyverse.link/ and some browser addons to alleviate those issues, but it’d be nice if this could be addressed at the source if doable.

And I dream of a lemmy:\\ protocol handler one day.

I don’t know why Italy is wasting time on this.

Tech-illiterate politicians making public actions so their corporate donators keep investing in them.

One way that their incompetency limits the amount of damage they can accomplish.

Or they could like… just not be dicks and supply firmware updates without the lock-in, instead of having to trade off security to use your device however you want.

I paid Plex Pass Lifetime for peanuts (maybe $50 or $75) a decade ago, not using it would mean wasting that so yeah…

Bazzite comes with Nvidia support out of the box.

And leave a good classic intact.

Bought and revived by Alexis Ohanian? It can only turn out into a dumpster fire. It’s probably just to diversify their data collection in case there’s an actual massive Reddit exodus and the brand name becomes too toxic.

One more reason to have actual open-source drivers instead of binary blobs…

Honestly, I’m just keeping my money in my saving account. No way I’m spending my hard-earned money on overpriced stuff, I can wait a while longer, and I’m considering a Steam Deck as my daily driver. Not a beast, but not excessively priced either.

Not gonna complain to see investments made into an open platform.

I suggest whoever has old firmware files to upload them to the Internet Archive (if they allow those).

Hotdog / Not Hotdog

But yeah, having a semantical image filter could do be a good first line, of course with human oversight.

Can you extract your cookie and pass it to yt-dlp?

Right, I think I found a lot of stuff for v3, but not that much for v4 and almost nothing for v5. I still managed to figure it out and I have a decent template now.

The worst is trying to find which version a post on StackExchange is about…

Just having an example with the most common tasks (ex: creating registry keys, registering DLLs or Fonts, etc) and having some comments in there with the common pitfalls to avoid would really go a long way.

I do appreciate v5 in a way, now that you don’t need a preprocessing step for the file, that you can use a wildcards for a directory, and you can just build a package in a single step is a great improvement. Maybe I was spoiled with Nullsoft and Inno Setup in the past 😬

I had to build a Windows Installer package using WiX Toolset, and v5 came out maybe 3-4 months at that point and the structure compared to v4 is quite different… that was fun trying to build something with lackluster documentation compared to v4. I gave a shot to ChatGPT, etc to help, but all it could spit out was a mess.

God damn leech
