Lidarr works best with usenet. There are good dedicated private torrent trackers for music though.

@nogrub

No, I’ll have to check it out, thanks for the tip.

@dumptruckdan @ZeroCool @Moc

Out of curiosity, how so?

@dukk @kjetil

Yeah #Fedora is nontrivial when dealing with proprietary drivers. It doesn’t just work out of the box. Your best bet if you want to use Fedora and have an easier gaming experience is #Nobara.

@WarlordSdocy @ExperimentalGuy

I have the same and opposite issue.

Part of the reason that I am always using #linux is because so much of my workflow these days requires Linux, that when I play something like a #bethesda game (modding them is just less of a hassle on Windows) it just feels wrong and uncomfortable.

@mihnt @I@lemmy.world @just_another_person

I assumed that was the case. Yeah, I use his proton version as well.

@just_another_person

Makes sense. Since nobara is maintained by glorious egg roll, I would imagine that he would try avoid any issues.

Performance degradation after kernel patches is definitely a weird issue.

@I@lemmy.world

My response to his question is usually linux mint

@just_another_person @I@lemmy.world

Huh, I don’t use fedora (I use #Nixos). Do those issues also apply to #nobara?

@feitingen Huh, I stand corrected.

@Anafroj @daninet

I got an e-ink device because it’s easier on the eyes and battery easily lasts a week when I go camping.

If it were possible to get an e-ink display, I would definitely use one for programming.

@mojo @protokaiser

You can convert them to azw3 with calibre. It’s what I do.

@jgrim

Yeah Lemmy is definitely lacking polish in a number of areas. One of the things that bothers me most about Lemmy is that the local feed is the default instead of subscribed.

@einsteinx2 @magic_lobster_party

This is most definitely my experience with a lot of CS professors unfortunately.

@porkins regarding music streaming…idk I download flac off Usenet…

As far as video editing there are two that people use, davinci resolve, which is proprietary, and kdenlive which is FOSS.

As far as cad, your only good options are blender and freecad. Blender is mesh modeling, but I’ve been able to do precise mechanical stuff with a few addons. As far as freecad goes…idk I haven’t used it.

@porkins out of curiosity, what software do you need access to that isn’t in linux? These days I am not really missing anything.

@porkins

Embrace, extend, extinguish.

It was an internal Microsoft term for bringing stuff under their umbrella

@jgrim @poVoq

Yeah, even though twexxit happened, there are still an absolutely massive amount of holdouts, so I expect rexxit to be just as slow.

@fedcon @mancy

I just let my family and friends use my #jellyfin server and if there’s something they want to let me know.

I can’t imagine the electricity cost for 5 PB of storage though, God damn.

@jemorgan @mechoman444

I have had my service turned off for 24 hours once and that’s why I finally started using a VPN, as that was just annoying.
