[Meta] How happy are you with having the community here? Would you like to move to another instance? in c/fantasy@lemmy.ml
[–] estebanlm@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago

I am ok here. And my account is from here. As long as you do not go to an instance that blacklists lemmy.ml, I'm fine.

framework 13 AMD... yay or nay? (lemmy.ml)

hi,

pretty much the subject... I am trying to choose my next laptop and I am tempted to buy a framework 13 AMD. I saw this post from one year ago : https://www.phoronix.com/review/framework-13-amd

and while the review is impressive, comments are not. how things have evolved since then? any experience?

EDIT: you convinced me, I just ordered mine. Thanks for the incredible answers !
NEW EDIT: I use arch (btw), and Gnome. For the answers, I do not think this will pose a problem but... what do you think?
(and yes, I ordered mine before reading last comment of paequ2 who doesn't like it... for reasonable reasons, maybe. I hope I will have more luck ;) )

gnome backlight control not showing up in c/archlinux@lemmy.ml
[–] estebanlm@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 months ago

hello, thanks for your answer and sorry for late acknowledge :P
yes... sadly there is still no response but as my other problems are solved and I just have now the backlight control issue remaining, I will patiently wait until gnome+tuxedo drivers go back in agreement :)

Thinking about switching to Linux; main concern is son's games in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] estebanlm@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 months ago

I guess all those games work out of the box in linux through steam. I personally play just Stellaris from that list, but I do not see why the others wouldn't.

gnome backlight control not showing up (lemmy.ml)

Hi, I already asked this in a gnome community but I was unable to get an answer since the issue is more complex than it seems (and I really do not want to go to r*ddt, heh) :) I run arch with gnome in a tuxedo infinibook 14 gen 9 (intel) and since this is a recent model, there are things that does not seems to be working out of the box... specially when installing another distro than the ones they recomment (which are a no-go for me because of two main reasons: I want arch, I want gnome).

Anyway, here one of the problems: I cannot get the keyboard backligth control of gnome to work, the one that should show up in the gnome shell does not shows up. Even if I can control it by command line (or even with fn+space).

I know, this is not a huge issue but I want my desktop to work fine (I have other small problems I need to see, but I am stuck with this one :)

Any hint?

thanks!

EDIT: Is Infinibook pro 14 gen 9, heh

[ Beta Update ] Mlem for Lemmy 2.0 Beta 2 in c/mlemapp@lemmy.ml
[–] estebanlm@lemmy.ml 5 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Hi, great news, thanks for the hard work. I wonder why it requires iOS 16? I have an old iPad and can’t install it there :(

[–] estebanlm@lemmy.ml 1 points 9 months ago

Oh, I agree with that (I use a selfhost solution -gitea- myself). I was just pointing to what I think is the current situation and why is like that :)

[–] estebanlm@lemmy.ml 20 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (5 children)

Well, keeping an infrastructure like github is very expensive. Other solutions like gitlab are no real solution as gitlab itself is also not completely FOSS. Codeberg is a relatively new kid in the block, and sustainability in the long term is still not proven. Gitea/Forjego requires you to selfhost your repositories and that's something not everybody can afford/take the time to do.
So, we have a situation of a standard de facto, when one company took the space and constitued a monopoly, forcing the users to use it or be invisible otherwise.
So, there you have the reason: visibility in a market dominated by just one actor.
How to fight this situation? There is no much way as individuals, a partial solution is to use a FOSS solution and then mirror on github for visibility. Of course this is limited as individual solutions wont change collective problems, but FOSS groups doing the same are no longer individuals but communities so with time we may have a way to get out...

EDIT: s/go/get

I made an app to install websites as desktop applications on Linux in c/opensource@lemmy.ml
[–] estebanlm@lemmy.ml 2 points 9 months ago

lol, I was doing exactly the same, mostly because the gnome app for it (webapp-manager) does not do one thing I badly want : open all non-app links in the default browser and not on instances of itself. Also, I love the webkitgtk project and this allows me to give it an usage.
I will give a look at your project, I think is better contribute to it than have two (or more) projects doing the same 😜

Pharo, the immersive programing language, has released its version 12 ! in c/programming@programming.dev
[–] estebanlm@lemmy.ml 6 points 10 months ago

It's a Smalltalk. I do not like to compare languages because each one has its own merits, but until now, I do not think there is an environment that matches what Smalltalk (and Pharo) provides (which is just understandable by using it, heh)

Ok, I admit I do not understand why it is returning an error (link is good, however)

Pharo, the immersive programing language, has released its version 12 ! (pharo.org)
 

Pharo is a pure object-oriented programming language and a powerful environment, focused on simplicity and immediate feedback (think IDE and OS rolled into one).

how to guard a door? (lemmy.ml)
 

So, I just dealt with a kobold thief and of course he escaped.
I read somewhere that to avoid thieves best thing is to "chain a tamed animal" to the entrance... only problem is I have no idea how to do that.
Any advice?
Thanks!

"meme" integration for matrix? in c/matrix@lemmy.ml
[–] estebanlm@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

yes, but discord has /tenor and /giffy to do queries and autopaste :)

"meme" integration for matrix? (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi,
I know this is a stupid request, but I recently moved a small community from discord and my users want to add memes to their conversations... is there some integration that adds this to a synapse server?
Thanks!

admin resources to clean synapse server (docker) (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi, I have a small server to sustain a small community (discord like, but for internal consumption). My users also lurk into some big external communities...
I am looking admin resources to keep my instance small... something like the possibility to remove old data, etc. I know I can log in the database and do stuff, but I'd prefer something more human friendly ;)
Thanks!

how to deal with magma? (lemmy.ml)
 

So... I just hit magma... bah... I looked for it! I dug like 150 levels until I got some warm, and now I realize I have no idea what to do with it.
Any advice on how to handle the thing?
Thanks!

What are people daily driving these days? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] estebanlm@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

well, I has been already years using Manjaro and never happened to me.
Not that it can't, but never happened to me and I hope it wont :)

what will "delete" key do? archive or move to trash? (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi,

I am sorry for the stupid question, but I am having problems to find a mail I deleted and I wonder if the "delete" key will archive them as with gmail (and most clients nowadays) or it will actually remove it.
I am pretty new to thunderbird, I started to use it after supernova, so I am not very used to it.

Thanks in advance

Which GPL-like licence for object oriented? (lemmy.ml)
 

Hello, I work on Pharo, an open source derivative of Smalltalk. Pharo is licensed under MIT hence most of my work needs to be licensed also under MIT.

However, time to time I have some projects in my free time that I made for my personal usage or for friends, and in those cases I am not OK with my work being used by for-profit project not giving anything back. I would very much prefer to use GPLv3 on those cases, but my understanding of licensing is very poor and I have been told there is a "virus" behavior on GPLv3 that may prevent people to use at all what I do, and that's not my intention.

Do you have any advice how to handle this?

feature request: instance bookmarks (lemmy.ml)
 

Hello,

I lurk into some thematic instances very often, without being necessarily subscribed to all communities there, but this is a hard task to do as lemmy is right now: I need to know the instance as first, then I need to open it in another window... and finally, if I decide I want to subscribe to a community there I need to comeback to my own instance and look for the community to hit the join button.

I think it would be a nice addition to be able to bookmark instances and then browse their local feed by clicking there... a super extra bonus would be being able to subscribe to extra-communities from there.

enhance subscribed communities ? (lemmy.ml)
 

hi, I was looking for my subscriptions to see if some can be added and got super confused while looking at my communities. I think the way this list is presented can be enhanced:

I mean... a cloud is not a good way to show it and is very confusing. Just a regular list will do the job better IMO.
