Max is getting ready for its own password-sharing crackdown in c/technology

[–] MrTolkinghoen 4 points 2 weeks ago

It was worth it. Finally cut the cord and got 6 12tb hdds. In raid 6 with zfs. Working so great.

Just make sure you setup zfs to do monthly scans and email you for issues. One of my drives kept throwing errors and had to RMA it.

SteamOS alternative Bazzite adds support for OneXPlayer plus improvements for ROG Ally in c/gaming

Great! Competition is wonderful.

To be fair, I think the true heart of steamos (besides arch and just being great) is what they've done for proton, which all of these alternative distros benefit greatly from and make them feasible. It's like X or Wayland. Proton is just foundational (thank you wine) to gaming on Linux being successful. So even if they don't spend the time to support other handhelds running steamos (yet), they really are with what they've done with proton.

I like tidal. Switched to them from Spotify and have been very happy. Feels like tidal treats artists better and has some lossless quality.

They put pcp alongside shrooms and LSD. That's insane.
