That old laptop’s CPU and TPM are “not supported” by Win11. And also, Win10 already didn’t run that smoothly on it - so, I didn’t even try to hack Win11 onto it.

Read my text again. This is my only Windows laptop - and it needs to be actual Windows for all the obscure firmware update tools of some devices I have flying around.

Everything else in my household is either Linux or MacOS.

I took the opportunity to “downgrade” to Windows 7. My old HP laptop (which is specifically for a few specialty Windows-only apps) feels double as fast now compared to Windows 10 before. And with the help of LegacyUpdates.net and VxKex-NEXT (provides the very few Windows 10 API calls so you can even run most Win10-only apps on Win7) you get a pretty nice and lean system.

Just finished Powerwash Simulator 2. Now trying to get my The Outer Worlds savegame from the Switch working on the Steam Deck to play the few DLC missions I skipped back then.

Open-source Mbrowser 52.2, packed with security features

Does anyone know where to find this?

EDIT: All I can find are the user agent strings which indicate that this might be some IBM product. Also, there’s rv:52.0 in the environment part, but IBM Mbrowser/60.5.1 in the engines part - so the actual version of the browser component might be 60.5.1 in this case, not 52.x. (There’s also a rv:60.0 with Mbrowser/60.9.0 - no IBM this time.)

Might be a language barrier as I’m not a native English speaker, yes. And I was referring to their moderation team. They seem to have no issues with extremist left stuff, but the moment you don’t display nothing but pure hate against something considered “right” (in the context of German politics) they get very trigger happy with the ban hammer.

I was thinking more that their moderation team is mostly German and thus they’re very sensitive about German politics but less sensitive about other countries’ politics.

I got shadowbanned for life for mentioning not to blindly believe some statement about a “secret” report about the German right-wing party without seeing said report first. So that’s that.

Depends on the area. As it’s a German instance, in terms of German politics it really is “as left as it gets”. But they probably don’t care much about US politics.

mastodon.social is the flagship instance and as left as it gets.

Does your mechanical keyboard have a lot of RGB? Might be that it draws too much power for the Steam Deck Dock to handle?

Ah, gut zu wissen! Danke! :)

The K3 Keyboard and the Voyage are the best Kindles IMHO. And I even had the same neon-yellow/green origami case for mine. Gave the K3 to my MIL when I upgraded to the Voyage. And sold the Voyage when I wanted to free myself from that walled garden a few years ago.

If you don’t want to get rid of your Voyage, you can turn it into a TRMNL and have it show your calendar, news, etc. instead.

The important bit is -v /opt/podman/searxng/config:/etc/searxng:Z in the podman call. This will mount your local directory (i.e. on the host the container is running on) /opt/podman/searxng/config into the container as /etc/searxng (which is where SearXNG is searching for its config). Make sure that the local directory exists and is writeable by your user account before starting the container. This way your config will persist even when the container gets replaced by an updated version.

IIRC, after running the container for the first time, SearXNG should put a settings.yml and uwsgi.ini there. You can edit them and restart the container for the changes to take.

On later container updates, SearXNG will put the latest versions of the default configs as settings.yml.new and uwsgi.ini.new. This way it doesn’t overwrite your config and allows you to manually merge the new defaults into your running config. (If you only see the *.new files after starting the container for the first time, rename them and remove the .new part.)

Finished Saints Row 2 last week (played 3 and 4 on the Switch a year ago) and now picked up Saints Row 2022. And despite it showing up as “Unsupported” on the store page, it runs great on Steam Deck.

Can Dockge manage/cleanup unused images and containers by now? That’s the only reason I keep using Portainer - because it can show all the other stuff and lets me free up space.

Because

A) Solving Captchas isn’t protecting from abuse/spam anymore. People in countries with cheap labour costs are being paid (or forced) to solve these for spam networks. And nowadays, LLMs can solve them almost better than any human. Manual approval is completely infeasible once you have a somewhat larger following.

Tying comments to some form of account is at least somewhat of a hurdle for spammers.

and

B) Some people want to keep ownership of their data. As long as the comment is tied to my account, I can easily find, edit or even delete it. Try that with some comment you made on some obscure blog 5 years ago; which address you don’t remember and with an email address you no longer have.

Yes, webtrees should fit that description.

I know, I’m 6 years late to the party
