  • what is good remote desktop software?

    Jump

  • Ah ok, thanks for the clarification. In the end I also use Sunshine for game streaming, but for pure remote desktop access RustDesk is far nicer, since I can also quickly move files back and forth. RDP is even nicer in that regard, where I can remote-mount local devices.

  • Where does rustdesk not have a good reputation? I see it being recommended regularly and also use it myself heavily. Never had issues or heard about issues (that I would attribute to reputation).

  • Is there a good email server that can be run through Docker?

    Jump

  • True. The default rocksdb is completely unusable on HDDs. For me it runs pretty good with PostgreSQL. Dovecot was certainly easier to handle with its file based storage and was super fast. But Postfix was a pain and I can't count how often it bit me over the years (and since it's SMTP, that means something broke in receiving, delivery or was suddenly a spam vector, which all sucks quite hard).

  • Stalwart

    Written in rust, contains SMTP, IMAP, JMAP, Sieve, CalDAV, CardDAV, WebDAV. Has an admin web ui. Sane defaults, minimal foot guns. No zoo of containers needed.

    Apple’s M3 Silicon Surrenders to Linux: A Technical Milestone for Open Source

    Jump

  • In business notebook comparison they are well within the norm. For private use … yeah, that’s a lifestyle choice.

  • Highguard | Official Launch Showcase

    Jump

  • I don’t get what makes this game so special that Geoff Keighley hyped it so much. That this thing was the big surprise that ended the game awards show was completely underwhelming. Out of the show, Highguard was the most generic game presentation. There was absolutely nothing about this game that seemed new or even interesting. Just the next hero shooter with comic look.

  • Data Backup Solutions

    Jump

  • I use Kopia to perform incremental encrypted backups (with some retention policy of up to two years) and store them on Backblaze B2, which is reasonably cheap.

  • What's the best option to run Solidworks in Linux?

    Jump

  • The 3D stuff around games is actually the smaller problem. It's performance critical but it's basically "just" one API (bundle) to implement that then covers a big chunk of the game's implementation.

    Productivity software usually consists of a shit ton of other stuff. They would probably render fine, but then they ship with a weird ass licensing management system that will deny to work. Or parts of or even a whole app use .NET and suddenly you have the complexity of all the WinAPI calls hidden behind .NET Framework. Maybe the app does a few lowlevel WinAPI calls themselves on top, that Wine didn't need to implement so far. Or the app you want to run is only distributed via Windows Store as UWP; the necessary APIs also haven't been implemented yet.

    Wine is awesome, but it's not fully covering all the shit Window's APIs offer.

  • WinBoat is a new Linux app to run Windows apps with "seamless integration"

    Jump

  • A company that lets you use Linux as a main OS might not like if you also want to run Windows in a VM.

    My point was rather to be careful when you use it, to not get into legal trouble (especially because it just works with the default settings).

    Jump

  • Unless you somehow use it commercially. Then the missing license could cause legal issues.

  • Anybody else experience note overload?

    Jump

  • That's what I like about Siyuan and Affine. I can have journal-like daily notes to quickly dump thoughts, but I can then re-arrange or cross-reference individual blocks in(to) other pages, that in turn can be in a nested folder structure and/or tagged. I can quite flexibly mix and match organization structures.

  • Backup/Server Options - is Syncthing / Nextcloud really the go?

    Jump

  • That, on the other hand, is only viable, if you are sure, data never needs to expire. Dedicated backup solutions work with retention policies.

  • Any self hosted personal finance projects doing anything interesting with AI that you've found value in?

    Jump

  • Where I could see an LLM being useful is categorizing entries and maybe proposing sanitization (for example when the payment provider uppercases or abbreviates stuff)

  • Battlefield 6 cheats day 1 of early access. Depite kernel level anti cheat, forced secure boot TPM 2.0

    Jump

  • The cheat developers, yes. Because there is demand. The question though was, why there is demand.

  • SiYuan or Affine. Both have daily notes and normal notes. You can move and reference blocks between documents. That way I can start unstructured (just bullet points in a daily note) and then later either add cross references or start moving it into structured notes directly.

  • What are the best free mmorpgs for a beginner?

    Jump

  • If you like Lord of the Rings: Lord of the Rings Online is extremely nice story wise. It's an old school MMO, but that shouldn't shock you when you only know old school ones anyway.

    If a low initial fee is fine, wait for Elder Scrolls Online sale. You can regularly get the base game for $5 or so. It has no forced monthly cost so those $5 are worth hundreds of hours or quest content.

  • The Star Wars Outlaws flop - Guillemot blames waning interest in the franchise

    Jump

  • It's really sad. I truly believe that Yves (or rather the Guillemots in general) were passionate about game development once. Now it feels mostly corporate, even though they still claim to be pro-gamer and innovative and fun. It's double sad because they acquired quite some good studios that have to be shaped into their corp structure and ultimately lose their innovation. It's not as bad as old-school EA, but it's still subjectively bad.

  • Just to clarify: OwnCloud or OwnCloud Infinite Scale (OCIS)?
