- Comment on Valve Sued By The Performing Rights Society Over Music Rights in Games Valve Doesn’t Make or Own 1 week ago:
Don’t get me wrong here, I understand the pushback from the community in this regard and i’m not try to defend proprietary software.
I’m more or less letting the original commenter know that they really don’t own the game or game files they purchase from common store-fronts, they simply own a license to download and play the game.

Let’s break it down.
People don’t like being proven wrong, and often try to dismiss it with some variation of “Im not gonna sit here and be told the whatfer by some random idiot”
Sounds like you’re describing yourself here.
-
Refused to accept documentation from a valid source.
-
Instead of having a discussion, you proceed with a pointless “Ok, buddy” as a response.
So when it came to registering on Lemmy, that popped up in my head and bobs your uncle.
Real nice honeypot too, every time someones wrong and backs themselves into a corner instead of admitting they are wrong, they inevitably give some variation of “living up to your user name, huh”, which just continues to prove that the actual idiot is the one lashing out like that.
You chose to make the two pointless comments above, I simply humoured your ignorance and lack of understanding of the subject, now isn’t that just bitter sweet, eh?

Suggest reading into software licensing and understand the different types of licenses.
- Comment on Valve Sued By The Performing Rights Society Over Music Rights in Games Valve Doesn’t Make or Own 1 week ago:
Make us individual game owners pay license every time we download and install the game?
This is how it’s been done for decades now?

If I remember correctly, Walmart does have televisions up in the tech department displaying advertisements and trailers for movies and games.

- Comment on Father sues Google, claiming Gemini chatbot drove son into fatal delusion 2 weeks ago:
Ffs be a parent and this never would have happened. Sounds like father is the delusional one.
His son was 36, his responsibility to babysit every little thing his child did ended at 19.
Father is not to blame for what his adult son had did.
- Comment on How "heavy" is self-hosting matrix really? 2 weeks ago:
My synapse instance was essentially DDOS’ing me when I attempted to join or load large rooms, setting up a cache on the reverse proxy level and forcing it to use my secondary PiHole mitigated this to some extent.

GrapheneOS is great and all but I refuse to willingly give google a single dollar for their hardware.
When GrapheneOS can be installed on any device is when I’ll gladly make that switch.

- Comment on How do I access my services from outside? 3 weeks ago:
Oh I am fully aware, that’s kinda why I added the line:
but be warned if you take this route that the CSS can be re-enabled on the login screen using your browsers element inspect
In my original comment, hence why I also suggest just outright blacklist all IP’s and whitelisting the known few.
- Comment on How do I access my services from outside? 3 weeks ago:
I’ve been looking at VPNs, but it feels weird, to route everything through my home IP when I’m also trying to use a commercial VPN for privacy / to combat services fingerprinting me based on my IP.
My ASUS WRT router (running Merlin Firmware) forwards my Home VPN serve through one of my Proton VPN clients, I get all the added bonuses of being connected to my home network while benefiting from appearing across the world.

- Comment on [Ubuntu] [Docker] Need help with Nvidia hardware acceleration in Jellyfin 4 weeks ago:
Step 1) Check /dev/dri for the GPU
user@debian:~/compose$ ls /dev/dri total 0 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 120 Jan 25 11:50 . drwxr-xr-x 18 root root 3360 Feb 11 03:03 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 100 Jan 25 11:50 by-path crw-rw---- 1 root video 226, 0 Jan 25 11:50 card0 crw-rw---- 1 root video 226, 1 Jan 25 16:39 card1 crw-rw---- 1 root render 226, 128 Jan 25 11:50 renderD128
Documentation indicates renderD128 typically refers to Intel GPU’s
Make sure at least one
renderD*device exists in/dev/dri. Otherwise upgrade your kernel or enable the iGPU in the BIOS.- Edit your docker-compose.yaml and specify this In your Jellyfin block
devices: - /dev/dri/renderD128:/dev/dri/renderD128
- Start your container and enter it to verify the device is accessible.
sudo docker compose up -d; sudo docker exec -it jellyfin bashOnce inside
ls/dev/dri to confirm the GPU is detected, then you can exit the container.- On the Jellyfin dashboard go to the hardware acceleration page and follow the notes left by Jellyfin devs.
- Comment on Based on this graph, and this graph alone, guess at what time I completely blocked OpenAI crawlers 4 weeks ago:
For a while my GoAccess instance wasn’t working properly so I couldn’t visualize my access logs to Traefik, got lazy trying to fix it and left it as is, well in the meantime I wasn’t lazy enough to setup Synapse and begin federating on my home network.
Finally fixed my GoAccess today to be surprised to see Synapse hits labelled as crawlers, hundreds of thousands of hits.

I’m considering doing Jellyfin, but I’m not a huge movie/shows consumer,
Well, if you’re paying for [Insert Streaming Service Here] than I’d say it’s worth it. Save yourself the extra 10, 15, 20 dollars a month.
- Comment on Discord roll out global age verification system, including an "age inference" model that runs in the background 5 weeks ago:
What do i say to my friends to get them to leave? Ive already tried and they won’t.
I just abruptly switched to Matrix and encouraged anyone who wanted to get a hold of me to do the same, did not look back, now a good handful of my friends have a Matrix account.

Misconfiguration with SMTP is likely or their SMTP server is under maintenance and you just tried at a poor time.
- Comment on Question: Is there a Self Hosted Discord like app? 5 weeks ago:
Setting up Element Call on my instance was difficult on its own, I understand why Synapse doesn’t come with it out of the box, essentially you spin up Matrix’s JWT service for authenticating clients and it if approved opens the connection to the Livekit ports which must be opened on your firewall, otherwise people will not be able to connect to calls.
Big PIA and in my experience, on my home network, can conflict with games with VOIP chats.
- Comment on Question: Is there a Self Hosted Discord like app? 5 weeks ago:
Element and Element Call, although no steaming audio support on the horizon anytime soon.

I stand corrected, apologies.
- Comment on Geo-distributed Jellyfin 1 month ago:
you don’t necessarily have to host another Jellyfin instance, I would find a server somewhere in the middle of your current Europe server and your Asian homies and setup a reverse proxy there.
The only hassle with this is you’re going to need a way to expose Jellyfin to it, a VPN would prevent port forwarding 443, perhaps split tunneling?

I suspect Germany was the reason Kane and Lynch 1/2 were so heavily censored. They even got a bright orange bulletin on the Steam store page claiming that Germans were unable to play the game if they resided in Germany.
- Comment on Immich 2.5 Released With Free Up Space, Web Backups 1 month ago:
This software is more meant to be ran in a server environment, it’s suppose to be a replacement to cloud storage. I would not recommend you run this on desktop you use daily as it’ll consume resources in the background potentially slowing your desktop down.
Once you get a grasp on the BASH shell I would suggest playing around with docker and docker compose in a headless environment (headless = no desktop environment, shell only)
- Comment on YSK you can add a noAI version of DuckDuckGo to Firefox 1 month ago:
Searx is deprecated whereas SearXNG however, is its successor.
SearXNG is not a search engine but an aggregator, it’ll utilize whatever search engines it’s configured with to output results.

- Comment on Copilot could soon live inside Windows 11's File Explorer, as Microsoft tests Chat with Copilot in Explorer, not just in a separate app 2 months ago:
Installed Dolphin on my work desktop which runs Win11, definitely not meant for Windows as certain functions like searching don’t work, at least it’s 1 step close to making windows slightly more bearable.
