This was just a random foot note in Mary Beard's "Emperor of Rome" and I hate that there's not that much more to say about it.

Alternatives to Big Tech for Laptops by nagaram in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[-] nagaram@piefed.social 2 points 1 day ago

TBH, for every day computing, I think a 10-15 year old laptop running Linux probably runs better than a current R-V board. Less efficiently probably, but in terms of responsiveness and normal measures of usefulness.

So genuinely, if you really wanted to avoid giving big tech more money there's no real difference other than being able to say you absolutely don't even use an x86 chip you hate big tech so much (which is based and I respect)

Why is Rust ALWAYS the top 10 most played on Steam but I barely see people talking about it online? by nagaram in c/gaming@lemmy.world

Well you won't see a lot of discussion about it here as its developers explicitly ban players from trying to run it on Linux for "cheating and bug report reasons"

Its a good game that regularly updates and listens to player feedback and also isn't predatory.

Its a pretty fun loop since its completely about organic player interactions ~~and toxic greifing~~

I played it a lot back in the day. Only problem is its one of those games you gotta REALLY get into. Like fall asleep while running the game so you can hear your base getting raided type shit. It has CSGO like gun play so you can practice spray patterns and go to training servers.

You can get real sweaty there.

Simultaneously there's a lot of 2x 5x and 10x servers for more casual play.

Its a good game and a lot of fun when your friends are into it.

Kubernetes for beginers? (piefed.social)

Wanting to dip my toes into kubernetes for homelab stuff and I have a few questions.

Do I need a specialized OS for it? I've been trying to get some TalOS VMs running but I've ran into some issues. Would you recommend like a Ubuntu server running kubernetes over something like TalOS?
Could I run this on a Windows server? I'm personally a Linux guy, but a friend who prefers windows server wanted to try it and I thought I'd ask.
Can I migrate Docker services to a Kube cluster? How easy is it?
Any recommendations for learning materials? I've clearly struggled with TalOS's quick start materials as I haven't been able to get into the tutorial cluster made with docker locally. I keep getting weird errors and reinstalling Talosctl and docker. I've diagnosed this as a "skill issue". My learning budget is like $100 for a udemy class or good interactive guide (Paid for by work apparently. I was learning this for fun, but it may actually be needed knowledge for a project)

Have you tried to put together a local health agent? by nagaram in c/localllama@sh.itjust.works

Personally, I think we have too much data on our own health habits.

Like it's cool that we can record that data if needed, but smart watches, rings, and things make us track too much info for a none medical professionals. Like I, and most people I know, barely understand what our blood pressure readings mean.

Its good to be mindful of your health, but genuinely, a food journal and a poop journal would be more useful for your more immediate health and asking an LLM to process that data into trends would be easier to do and more useful for you and your doctor.
