I have an MSI Bravo 17 for work since this month,
quite happy about it so far.

My experience with MSI is best price/value for hardware specs, but with shitty build quality.

However this one feels quite sturdy compared to earlier MSI laptops.

It can get loud under heavy duty,
but it goes quiet again under low workload,
for now at least, my previous MSI laptop sounded like a jet engine whenever it was powered on.

The one you posted seems particularly suited to run Linux upon, since it’s an all AMD machine, and their Linux support is great.

That would be an anti-virus… x)

Since it would remove spy-ware from your computer.

I’ve been happily using the clock app that comes embedded with LineageOS for years now.

If you don’t want to switch to LineageOS,
then you can still find/install it from ApkMirror:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/lineageos/clock-2/

OP I agree with you, it’s a great idea imo.
I’ve been a moderator before on a Discord server with +1000 members, for one of my FOSS projects,
and maintenance against scam / spam bots grew so bad,
that I had to get a team of moderators + an auto moderation bot + wrote an additional moderation bot myself!..

Here is the source to that bot, might be usable for inspiration or just plain usable some other users:
https://github.com/Rikj000/Discord-Auto-Ban

I think it will only be a matter of time before the spam / scam bots catch up to Lemmy,
so it’s good to be ahead of the curve with auto-moderation.

However I also partially agree with @dohpaz42, auto-moderation on Reddit is very, uhm, present.
Imo auto moderation should not really be visible to non-offenders.

Thank you for LibreSpeed! <3
Been using it for a few years now,
and it’s become my go-to network speed testing tool

Correct, ChatGPT is proprietary spyware.

If the interface would support self hosted (local/offline) LLMs, then I’m sure people would be much more interested.

Ah sorry that wasn’t clear to me,
thought you where talking about KVMs as in Kernel Virtual Machines :)

I’m using Looking-Glass to share my mouse/keyboard/audio between host and client:
https://looking-glass.io/

And USB-Libvirt-Hotplug to pass through USB devices to the KVM on the fly:
https://github.com/olavmrk/usb-libvirt-hotplug

Hope these will prove useful to you :)

Wikiless?
The original project was taken down by Wikipedia, but this appears to be an active fork of it:
https://github.com/Metastem/wikiless

• Communication: Matrix
• Browsing: I2P
• Communities: ActivityPub / Mastodon
• Software Forge: Fogejo + ForgeFed
• OS: Linux
• Money: Monero

Since they meet at least one of,
if not all of the following:

• Decentralized / Federated
• Sensorship resistant
• Privacy respecting
• Open source

Waydroid is made for Wayland.

You can however run it on X-Server,
through a Wayland session window
(e.g. KWin_Wayland, Cage, Weston, …):
https://docs.waydro.id/faq/setting-up-waydroid-only-sessions

I wrote a tool to help improve the user experience on X-Server,
however currently it only supports KDEs Kwin_Wayland:
https://github.com/Rikj000/XWaydroid

Oh I see, thank you!
Will definitely play around with that tomorrow :)

High resolution neofetch image? 👀
If that’s not a distro specific thing,
then please teach me how 😄

Correct:
https://hiphish.github.io/blog/2023/10/18/grayjay-is-not-open-source/

For that reason I use Tubular,
a fork of NewPipe which supports SponsorBlock + ReturnYouTubeDislike:
https://github.com/polymorphicshade/Tubular

Legacy software still requires maintenance.
Legacy dependencies still require to be used in new projects.
Dual booting multiple times a day is not feasible.

For those reasons none of my co-workers can fully switch to Linux.

I write PHP on the daily and don’t understand the hate it gets :/

At least I can work on Linux at home while my co-workers are stuck on Windows with their C#

Good luck! :)

No easy way to set it up I’m afraid.

But if you’re interested,
I posted all the bookmarks I made, with tutorials and tools, when I set mine up here:

Here you go, hope these sources will help :)
