Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Does anyone know a good Linux live image for diagnosing systems?English
3·3 years agoIt’s not free but I highly recommend Parted Magic. I’ve been using it since at least 2015.
I’d love to switch to Linux. I’ve used Linux off and on for almost two decades now. At one point I was triple booting Windows XP, Windows 7, and Fedora. The one thing holding me back is, strangely enough, game compatibility. I know Proton has made huge strides as I’ve seen it first hand on the Steam Deck, a lovely little machine. The problem is, I have a huge library, and while I’m okay with slightly less than ideal performance here and there on the Deck (40hz mode anyone?), I absolutely refuse to lose any performance due to running Linux. Benchmarks still show some titles losing 5-15% performance when running through Proton.
Don’t get me wrong. I love FOSS. I donate and try to spread the word as much as I can when I find a passion project, and find it particularly useful. Even though this may seem to go against what I previously said, I’m debating on switching to Linux when Windows 10 loses support. I do not want to enable fTPM on my motherboard or update my BIOS if I don’t have to. My PC is stable, no thank you. I feel like I’ll have to troubleshoot whether I choose Linux or Windows 11. Ugh.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is it just me or did anyone else became a more avid poster since joining lemmy?
8·3 years agoI’m feeling some of that early internet charm here. That might be part of why I’m a little more active. Still a lurker through and through.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why does /All show different posts in different instances?
8·3 years agoI’m not too knowledgeable on this but I imagine the servers update content or ingest content from other servers at different rates. Some larger instances are under heavy load and some instances may be running older/newer versions of Lemmy.
Do admins have any say in how content is ordered in the feed? I don’t know at all.

Technology@lemmy.world•Some Redditors say they're walking away after Apollo app shuts downEnglish

Lord of the memes@midwest.social•The Baggins will solve it for usEnglish
2·3 years agoThis one got me good. Hahaha
I’m excited for Artemis. I’ve been using Lemmy and Kbin almost equally. Kbin’s default mobile page is highly accessible, more so than Lemmy but I’d prefer an app. Using wefwef for Lemmy and I’m really pleased with it.

World News@beehaw.org•Our fall COVID boosters will likely be a monovalent XBB formulaEnglish
1·3 years agoI remember the very first Covid shot making it feel as though my arm was kicked by Chuck Norris. Super sore. The boosters weren’t so bad. I’ll get another jab if it means not catching Covid or just having mild symptoms.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•How do you guys have your music streaming setup?English
1·3 years agoThis is pretty much why I never attempted to use something like Jellyfin for the music I, um, accumulated through the years. I use Spotify and Youtube these days.
