  • It’s incorrect. I have 2 AMD cards, I can detach it from linux before booting the guest. After I shut down the guest I have to log out in Gnome to make the card usable again, but no reboot required. It depends on how you set it up. I have a single 34" monitor with 2 inputs, connected to both cards.

    I recommend to read about this topic, it would be quicker than waiting for people to answer, your questions were answered multiple times. I recommend the vfio wiki on the r*ddit a lot of good links are collected there: https://old.reddit.com/r/VFIO/wiki/index



  • Is this that though? Isn’t MKBHD just a youtube personality? I mean, you can live well from youtube if you do good quality stuff, but is he considered a “rich person”. If it would be zuck or elon or warren buffet, I would see your point, but I don’t see a reviewer as someone from a “higher class”, he is basically just a specialized journalist, who is looking for more ways to convert some of his fame to money, because youtube still doesn’t pay enough to him.

    Do you also hate Linus because he constantly advertises his underwear, which is exactly the same as one you can get in any shop but for double price. It’s also a “scam” if you think about this way. I don’t know why there is this huge outcry for this as it happened a million times before, and I’m sure it will happen in the future.

    You will loose your mind when you will learn about the girl who sold her used bathwater…


  • Why do you care? People do a lot of stupid and wrong things, you don’t have to care or share these things. See my example: I read about this backround image app or whatever is this, I thought “yeah, it’s stupid and I don’t care” and moved on with my life. Never thought about this again until you posted this here. There are a lot more important things to be angry about. Ignore the unnecessary. This guy makes nicely edited reviews, that’s all, forget the extra bullshit around that. Your life will be better.




  • Because they have different appid. Izzy version is app.organicmaps.web fdroid version is app.organicmaps (you can see this in the url). Google version uses the same appid as fdroid. You can’t have two apps installed with the same appid, but this way you can have both installed at the same time.

    I guess organic devs wanted separate appid for their 2 versions and fdroid just went with the default, original one.

    So the 3 versions:

    • Web: built by organic devs, you can download this from github releases, scraped from there by izzy
    • Google: built by organic devs, you can download from github or from play store
    • Fdroid: built by fdroid build server, signed with fdroid devs’ key.

  • From Creative Commons FAQ:

    We recommend against using Creative Commons licenses for software. Instead, we strongly encourage you to use one of the very good software licenses which are already available. We recommend considering licenses listed as free by the Free Software Foundation and listed as “open source” by the Open Source Initiative.

    Unlike software-specific licenses, CC licenses do not contain specific terms about the distribution of source code, which is often important to ensuring the free reuse and modifiability of software. Many software licenses also address patent rights, which are important to software but may not be applicable to other copyrightable works. Additionally, our licenses are currently not compatible with the major software licenses, so it would be difficult to integrate CC-licensed work with other free software. Existing software licenses were designed specifically for use with software and offer a similar set of rights to the Creative Commons licenses.

    Version 4.0 of CC’s Attribution-ShareAlike (BY-SA) license is one-way compatible with the GNU General Public License version 3.0 (GPLv3). This compatibility mechanism is designed for situations in which content is integrated into software code in a way that makes it difficult or impossible to distinguish the two. There are special considerations required before using this compatibility mechanism. Read more about it here.

    Also, the CC0 Public Domain Dedication is GPL-compatible and acceptable for software. For details, see the relevant CC0 FAQ entry.

    While we recommend against using a CC license on software itself, CC licenses may be used for software documentation, as well as for separate artistic elements such as game art or music.





  • One of them is a laptop, why ssh to the server isn’t an option? Set up tmux on the server so it always connects to the same session, so you can just continue where you left last time. If you need desktop support, rdp in gnome works really well.

    E.g if you connect with this command, and tmux is installed on the server, it will start a new session named “main”. If a session with that name exists it will connect to that:

    ssh -t pi@192.168.1.2 tmux new-session -A -s main

    Add something to .bashrc on the server to always do the same if you work on that phisically:

    if command -v tmux &> /dev/null && [ -n "$PS1" ] && [[ ! "$TERM" =~ screen ]] && [[ ! "$TERM" =~ tmux ]] && [ -z "$TMUX" ]; then
    tmux new-session
    fi

    Congratulations!

    Small reminder, if you don’t remember from last time it was posted to all communities on lemmy, this is still a project by cryptobros:

    What is the relationship between Radicle and the Radworks ($RAD) token?

    Radicle is a true peer-to-peer protocol. It doesn’t use nor depend on any blockchain or cryptocurrency.

    Radworks, the organization that has been financing Radicle is organized around the RAD token which is a governance token on Ethereum.

    @7heo@lemmy.ml reviewed it 6 months ago:

    This doesn’t pass the smell test.

    • Instructs to pipe the output of curl in sh
    • Assumes that sh is bash [1]
    • “Community” behind it is apparently originating in Berlin, and is now a “nonprofit foundation in Switzerland”, but has no publicly disclosed legal structure anymore.
    • “Community” behind it uses discord, but not revolt, matrix, simplex or others.
    • “Community” behind it uses twitter, but not mastodon.
    • Cryptobros.

  • How would it otherwise? Network based location?

    Yes. Your phone could triangulate its location from nearby celltowers ane wifi networks. Google has a database of wifi routers (actually that was the point of google streetview, they collected wifi bssids alongside taking photos, they also collect this data from android devices).

    With microg you can select from different dbs for this, they are called ‘UnifiedNlp backends’: apple has a similar db from iphones, mozilla used to collect this data with a separate app for MLS (they shut down the project in 2024 march). Microg builds an on device private db as well, it will remembers the wifi networks and celltowers you were close to, and next time you are there it won’t need gps, saves a ton of battery life. This was called Deja Vu, I love this name. Search for UnifiedNlp on fdroid you can find some more options.

    Since MicroG 0.3 you don’t have to install these separately, Mozilla and Deja Vu are builtin, and they are more than enough


  • Huh? Which rom asks this? Usually you have to go through hoops to get microg, and only a handful of roms have it builtin. It can only ask if you want to enable microg not installing it or not, microg to correctly work it should be installed in /system/priv-app, to do that after boot on device, you have to be root.

    Do you use any app from aurora or outside fdroid? If your answer is no, than you can use android without a GMS package.

    Also as I wrote, location won’t work for you underground or inside concrete buildings. If you are fine with these kind of limitations than you can obviously.

    Marwin (the main developer of microg) said in some interview that he doesn’t want microg to exist, and in a perfect world we shouldn’t need such workaround. I would be also happy if android wouldn’t depend this muhc on google


  • (I reread ops question and I can only see the term open source 2 times, but whatever, I understand what you say, and I don’t want to debate about semantics.)

    The point with microG is it’s still the best way if you want to use android. The other options are:

    • Play services (GMS), or Huawei has some similar solution because of US trade embragoes.
    • You can use android without play services but notifications won’t work for most apps, even if you can open them. (UnifiedPush tries to solve notification part) Wifi and cell based location won’t work
    • I see microG as an acceptable middle ground. I still have to give up something to goog, but it’s not much compared to GMS, and I can use all available apps
