Yep, I used to be on r/diyhotas and that was already a niche within the HOTAS niche within the simulator game niche ๐Ÿ˜‚

Hey, just to let you know, software raid nowadays is quite a bit better for home NAS that hardware raid. I would suggest using ZFS and zpools as a software raid.

If you are already past that point though. As far as sharing, if you are just using it as a small home server or NAS and want things simple, you could just use TrueNAS. It would make things much easier.

If you are running your main computer and sharing the files, I would suggest trying NFS instead of Samba. Samba shares are notoriously unreliable and buggy. Windows has NFS support for a while now for your other machines https://blog.netwrix.com/2022/11/18/mounting-nfs-client-windows/

Well this article is pretty disingenuous...

  1. The distribution "managed by a single person" depends on hundreds of people working on different sofware to keep up. It's not "one person doing better than the thousands of Microsoft employees combined" implication they are pushing

  2. Windows 11 beat the linux distros by up to 20% in 1% lows which are argued as much more important by most tech reviewers. It wasn't consistant at all which means that there was a giant margin of error.

I love linux and linux gaming has gotten radically better, but I am tired of tech "journalism" literally just cherrypicking, misleading, clickbait trash.

What about the many that say something like 7(0). Maybe it is connected peers (non connected peers)?

Props for pulling the sources!

Though the other commenter saying "that sounds like it is made up" is definitely not presenting an opinion as fact, it is challenging that you presented your opinion as fact (in the uninformed person's eyes) with no sources to back it up (in your original comment). But then you came with proof afterwards that it has indeed been studied and is a fact.

That does not mean that he was "stating his sexist stereotype as fact".

If I said:

"Multiple studies have shown that the majority of people think the earth is flat"

with no sources.

Then anyone would be very reasonable to say "that sounds like you are making it up" (which in this case is true).

Does volume normalization mean that we can choose the volume level finally? I cannot figure out a way to do this in 10.8.x

Jellyfin, across every single device that I have, is literally 50%+ quieter than every other app. I have to double the volume on my TV w/Chromecast for example to watch a show.

Well then allow me to name a few:

  • Battlefront 2 (the original), still active when the servers have been down for years

  • Titanfall 2. Official servers aren't technically down, but pretty much unusable and NorthStar is the alternative

  • Counter strike 1.6 is pretty much just community-run servers, same with day of defeat: source. I don't know if they are tied with valve that if valve shut them down, they wouldn't be searchable.

  • Supreme commander: Forged Alliance

Hell, Battle for Middle Earth II still has a small community

  • Valheim has never had official servers. I run my own via docker on debian

  • Unreal Tournament 1999

  • Minecraft (official servers aren't down, but if they shutdown there would still be 2000 servers)

I think that one of the projects that needs it the most right now, a complete overhaul, is FreeCAD.

It needs a good, competent UX designer. Nothing has changed UX wise for like 6 years. Everyone who begins to use it quits saying that it is the biggest hurdle.

It is literally the only real classical FOSS CAD software and they have no UX designer as far as I know.
