I don't know what's up on your case, but I would not jump to the conclusion that it's impossible to use tailscale with any other VPN in any circumstance.

Rather, tailscale and Mullvad will now work easily and out of the box. For other VPNs, you may need to do understand the topology and routing of virtual devices and have the technical ability and system permissions to make deep networking changes.

So I'd expect one can probably find a way for most things to coexist on a Linux server. On a non-rootrr android phone? I'm less confident.

Have you emailed [email protected] to try to get reinstated? This all seems like a pretty reasonable explanation if it isn't repeated behavior.

What apps? It's pretty common for media apps to have their own brightness settings. Netflix, Jellyfin, and VLC all have this at minimum.

  1. If there are clear spam posts, report them. Save their links so you can track whether the mods respond. You may find here that they're not inactive after all, in which case the problem is solved.
  2. Reach out to the mods, in a post asking to be added to the mod team. Again, save the url to track whether the mods respond. You may find here that they're willing to accept help and add you as a mod, again problem solved.
  3. If reaching out to the mods as described above fails, you need admin help. Post in [email protected] or email [email protected] with the results of 1 and 2, along with any violations of the moderators guide pinned in the moderators community.

The admins generally won't intervene until you've made a good faith attempt to coordinate directly with the mods and documented a clear case that they're unresponsive or malicious.

If no one responds here, post in [email protected] (also read the mod guidelines there if you're a new mod) or email [email protected]. You need the help of an admin to make this transition, but if the only mod is banned it should be a pretty simple request.

So I have a question, what can I do to prevent that from happening? Apart from hosting everything on my own hardware of course, for now I prefer to use VPS for different reasons.

Others have mentioned that client-caching can act as a read-only stopgap while you restore Vaultwarden.

But otherwise the solution is backup/restore. If you run Vaultwarden in docker or podman container using volumes to hold state... then you know that as long as you can restart Vaultwarden without losing data that you also know exactly what data needs to be backed up and what needs to be done to restore it. Set up a nightly cron job somewhere (your laptop is fine enough if you don't have somewhere better) to shut down Vaultwarden, rsync it's volume dirs, and start it up again. If you VPS explodes, copy these directories to a new VPS at the same DNS name and restart Vaultwarden using the same podman or docker-compose setup.

All that said, keeypass+filesync is a great solution as well. The reason I moved to Vaultwarden was so I could share passwords with others in a controlled way. For single-user, I prefer how keypass folders work and keepass generally has better organization features... I'd still be using it for only myself.

My take echoes this. If one puts any stock in streamer recommendations, Baalorlord who has at various times held spire world record winstreaks, has recently cited Monster Train as his current favorite spirelike (other than spire itself), and also cited Griftlands as a playthrough a highlight.

Baalor probably doesn't have an opinion on Inscryption as he tends to avoid things with even a slight horror theme. I enjoyed what I played of Inscryption a lot, but very little about playing it evoked the vibe of playing spire. Monster Train is quite adjacent though, the mechanics are different enough to feel fresh but it slots into the same gameplay mood for me whereas Inscryption is just a different (and still very good) thing.

Neither has the tight balance of Spire or feels quite as deep strategically to me (though in all honesty I'm probably not a strong enough player to be trusted in this regard), but both are fun.

And just today with a comment by a world admin! Hopefully they'll get it sorted soon.

That's an interesting report but it's possible to "work" at different latencies. And unless you have specialized audio capture/playback hardware and have done some tuning and testing to determine the lowest stable latency that your system is capable of achieving... "works" for you is likely to mean something very different than it does to someone who does a lot of music production.

It remains an interesting question to some users whether Wayland changes the minimum stable latency relative to X and if so whether it does so for better or worse.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Derp, yeah. That's pretty obvious. Thanks.

I'd consider asking in a Linux audio or music production community (I'm not aware of any on Lemmy that are big enough to have a likely answer though). If music production is a primary use case and audio latency matters to you, almost no general users are going to be able to comment on the difference between X and Wayland from a latency perspective. There may not be a difference, but there might and you won't be likely to learn about it outside of an audio-focused discussion.

Is this a play on b-boys? https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=b-boy

Or is there a more specific reference in play?

 

The F1 Youtube channel's FP3 highlights. Developments from the session:

  • Full wets or inters, the session was wet.
  • Red flag for Sainz, who's crash wrecked at least the front and rear suspension.
  • Sainz was also referred to the stewards for dangerous blocking of Albon in the chicane. He's at risk of a penalty.
  • Session standings posted at https://lemmy.ml/post/1320056.

F1 YouTube highlights from FP2. Mostly a bunch of clean running as people tried to get some track time in after FP1 basically got cancelled. Points of interest include:

  • Red flag for mechanical trouble from OCON, after Gasly had trouble in the few minutes he was out in FP1. Reliability looking sketch for Alpine.
  • Red Flag for mechanical trouble from Hulk/Haas.
  • At the end of the session the skies opened up with torrential rains. It's worth watching 1:08-1:25 just to see what it looked like. I'm not sure I've ever seen F1 cars running in rain like that.
 

A demonstration of a video player for the 1977 - 1982 vintage TRS-80 Model I, Model III and Model 4 computers. Works on stock machines which only had 128 x 48 or 160 x 72 monochrome graphics and 1 bit audio. The video and audio are read from an enhanced FreHD hard-drive emulator.

Read all about it at http://48k.ca/trsvid.html

 

Here are the FP1 highlights from YouTube, but the session basically didn't happen. During outlaps, Gasly's alpine stopped with a driveshaft issue, prompting a red-flag for cleanup. But the session never restarted due to a problem with the closed-circuit television system at the track. It's not clear whether this system is used by race control to monitor conditions on the track, is a security system to keep fans off the track or both. But apparently it's considered a sufficiently essential safety system that the session was stopped over it.

FP2 has been extended to 90m to try to recoup the lost running time.

 

There's a new instance at https://pathfinder.social/ that calls itself "A place for people to discuss Pathfinder and Starfinder tabletop RPGs".

It has a [[email protected]](/c/[email protected]) for PF2e discussion similar to this community. I'm not sure which will get more traction, but I'm subscribing to both for now. There are also lots of other granular roleplaying communities for pf1e, starfinder, art, and general discussion. They're all pretty empty so far as it seems very new, and I suppose the danger of all that granularity is that each community individually seems dead. But it also feels like a nice topic layout and maybe the topic-oriented instance will make it feel like a community of communities where people sub to a bunch of them all at once. That's what I just did.

 

This post is a lament about how episode names and file-name conventions interact to result in horrible sorting of tv-show filenames in the filesystem.

The Jellyfin TV Show docs show a preferred filename format like Episode S00E01.mkv. The docs aren't really clear about what the string Episode is supposed to represent here, though. Is that the show name, the episode name, or something else?

  • The example in the multi-part episode docs gives us a hint a hint that it's really intended to be the series name like Series (2010) S02E01<separator><parttype><separator><partnumber>.mkv.
  • The tests in the source code make this even clearer with examples like the_simpsons-s02e01_18536.mp4 and the.series.name.s01e04.webrip.x264-Baz[Bar].mkv. Plus the variable is called SeriesName in the tests.

Interestingly, that string shows up in the episode name in the Jellyfin UI if your series isn't in tvdb. So it can be very useful to set episode-names. But if you do this, the filesystem sort order gets pretty miserable, like:

$ ls 'my show (2023)/'
'bar - S01E02.mp4'
'baz but this episode name is longer - S01E03.mp4'
'episode foo - S01E01.mp4'

If there are 10 or more episodes, and the episode names vary in length so the season/episode strings don't line up vertically, it's very difficult to read the episode order. It would be so nice if S01E01 My Episode Name.mkv was supported. And this is even nodded to in the tests, but commented out as it apparently does work. And in this case the show name is pulled from the directory and the episode is ignored.

I guess maybe this is lamenting the lack of proper episode name support in tv show filenames. Though abusing the current SeriesName works... it makes the filesystem sorting gross.

 

Three-time F1 World Champion Nelson Piquet has reportedly been unsuccessful in his appeal to overturn his fine issued for racist and homophobic comments he made about Lewis Hamilton.

A [civil] court case was brought against the former F1 racer by four human rights groups, including Brazil’s LGBTQ+ Alliance, in response to multiple interviews emerging where Piquet had used racial slurs against seven-time World Champion Hamilton.

... a court in his native Brazil moved to fine him 5,000,000 Brazilian Reals (£780,000) in ‘moral damages’.

Here's an article from March when the initial verdict was rendered: https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2023/mar/25/nelson-piquet-fined-lewis-hamilton-comments-f1. But recently he lost his attempt to appeal the case.
