Thanks for a urethra lifehack! Might save me at times :D

Doesn't anon know Rule34? It's the first one you need on Reddit

Nice! Heard of new versions of TerraFirmaCraft, but I believe it is community maintained, as the main author seems to focus on Vintage Story. But since you mention it works fine, I might as well give it a spin! Didn't know Gregtech updated to newer versions.

No need to advertise Prism - using it already :)

Also, UltimMC is a decent offline fork for pirates and privacy enthusiasts (Disclaimer: I do not promote piracy and own a legal Minecraft license)

I'm so lost and then I try to play like a Beta 1.7.3 player and everyone else just goes "the fuck are you doing?"

Happily, I joined Minecraft when it was already 1.7.2 (release versioning, not Beta), so my ways are not THAT outdated, and obviously I never had issues with 1.7.10 because it's literally my first version with two minor updates. Who would have known that it will all stop there...

Also, I struck some delicate balance with mods at version 1.21.1, but it is for sure still a much different experience.

I too find myself returning back there :)

So many great mods died after this version that it was impossible to recreate the experience - and I feel bad for those who joined the party later and never knew what 1.7.10 (or 1.6.4, or 1.5.2 for that matter) has to offer.

It goes so bad that when I recently loaded a newer version, I was like "what the hell is going on here" :D

Feed the Beast is commonly overloaded and also commonly shoves things like progression and questing, which are not to everybody's liking.

The best approach is always to add the mods you want manually to tailor the experience.

I personally had most fun with Terrafirmacraft, Thaumcraft, Electrical Age, and GregTech. But those were the days gone, and most of them got stuck at 1.7.10

I see. But sometimes, progress really makes lesser problems than there were before.

We have cheap and generally eco-friendly solar, we install plenty of wind, and now we have a much more ecological way to store the power, too.

The rich care about their profits, and if eco-friendly tech delivers that, they'll be all-in. Some fossil kings will try to stop it, but at this point, this trend is irreversible, because others among the rich are ready to destroy them.

Here's the thing: sodium chloride aka table salt is extremely abundant. We are not expected to run out of it in any measurable timeframe, and the effect of sodium mining on the oceans or ecosystems at large is negligible.

Same cannot be said of lithium, which currently forms the backbone of battery tech. It is rare, and its extraction is extremely polluting. In fact, lithium is responsible for a huge chunk of renewable energy's ecological footprint.

Switching to sodium technology is like switching from silver to sand. It's just one thing we truly have enough of.

It all boils down to whether you believe the art is born in the hands of artists or the eyes of the beholder.

To me, do whatever you please! Marry her, draw rule34, make her a zombie, whatever. The original creation is still there, no one's forcing the unofficial changes. The author is only responsible for the original work.

And Serana herself is just bits of code. Her marrying or not marrying you is all puppeteering either way, and no one gets hurt by that.

More like "Serana doesn't even exist IRL"

sorry fanboys

Linux is exactly where you should go with old computers.

With a proper distribution/DE combination, you can run it on 20+ year old computers with no issue.

But overall, if your laptop runs Windows 10, it will likely run every Linux distribution easily.

 

Yesterday, I did a fresh install of OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on my NVidia-powered machine (GeForce GTX 1060 6gb). When installing, I enabled Secure Boot.

By default, the distribution comes with nouveau drivers, and the process of installing official NVidia drivers is outlined here: https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:NVIDIA_drivers

I successfully added openSUSE-repos-Tumbleweed-NVIDIA as per the guide; first oddity is that by default it shipped with openSUSE-repos-MicroOS-NVIDIA, which got uninstalled as a conflicting package, despite this being Tumbleweed. (I later tried to rollback and do these steps with openSUSE-repos-MicroOS-NVIDIA installed instead, to no avail)

Next, as per the guide, I tried to do zypper install-new-recommends. After installation, I rebooted the machine. Upon login, resolution was forced to low.

inxi -G has shown N/A in the driver field.

I've rolled back via snapper rollback, confirmed that nouveau drivers are back in place (resolution was back to normal, inxi -G has shown nouveau), and tried to install nvidia-video-G6 using YaST. It has automatically installed all dependencies as well.

Upon login, I faced the same issue - resolution degradation and N/A in the driver field.

Troubleshooting for this issue has shown that secure boot may not allow these drivers to be launched without importing the respective key, as listed in the same Nvidia drivers article. However, the file that needs to be imported is not at the suggested location (/usr/share/nvidia-pubkeys/); in fact, /usr/share only had nvidia folder, which didn't seem to contain any keys.

As a workaround, I attempted to disable secure boot by entering: mokutil --disable-validation. A menu appeared on reboot, through which I disabled secure boot. Further launches had "launching in insecure mode" notice. mokutil --sb-state output is SecureBoot disabled.

Then, I tried to install the driver again, as described above. Still no luck, and same issue.

So, what else could be the issue and what do I do about it next? Thank you in advance for any replies!

Solution that worked: instead of going for install-new-recommends, install the following package:

nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-meta

It should be available by default, but if not, add the respective repository by using this command:

zypper addrepo https://download.nvidia.com/opensuse/tumbleweed/

Thanks to Björn Tantau! The comment with the solution: https://swg-empire.de/comment/7201260

Update Bug solved, fix should roll out in a few days: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1249814

 

I'm pretty new to selfhosting and homelabs, and I would appreciate a simple-worded explanation here. Details are always welcome!

So, I have a home network with a dynamic external IP address. I already have my Synology NAS exposed to the Internet with DDNS - this was done using the interface, so didn't require much technical knowledge.

Now, I would like to add another server (currently testing with Raspberry Pi) in the same LAN that would also be externally reachable, either through a subdomain (preferable), or through specific ports. How do I go about it?

P.S. Apparently, what I've tried on the router does work, it's just that my NAS was sitting in the DMZ. Now it works!
