Huh I actually like the GE, way better than spam chatting in a city square somewhere 🤷

How’s this related to the original game? As in licensing issues?
Idk about 2006scape, but I can tell about 2009scape.org. The server is fully FOSS and AGPL-3.0 licensed. No code from the original game is present, it’s all rebuild.
The client is different and a bit more difficult, there is a project that’s decompiling and deobfuscating the original client from around that time. It’s not FOSS because it can’t be, it’s not their code to relicense, they don’t own it. However it existing makes it possible for an alternative fully FOSS client to be created, as the internal workings of the original client is then known and documentation can be written about it. That way the new client developers can develop the new client without having to look at the original code, they just have to look at the documentation written based on that original code.
An alternative client like that hasn’t been developer so far though sadly, I believe the community is more focused currently on the server-side and deobfuscating the original client.
Huh, so this is like 2009scape.org but for 2006? Interesting, I wonder which project is further along. I personally prefer the 2009 era at least so I don’t think I’ll play this.
I believe just as viable as a Raspberry Pi, but not much more.
Cable only half-way plugged in, if only I had the same problem 😅
In my case it seems to be an unfortunate hardware/software combo bug. I’m due for a new PC sometime soon anyway, I’ll have to be patient for a bit.
That… Is interesting 🤔 Linux can be fun but it should foremost just be a way to run your apps, just “be an OS”, nothing more. Choose some well-supported enterprise distro like Fedora or Ubuntu or whatever and just do what you do on a computer, minus customizing it.
I know that’s not how addiction works, but I’m sure there is some way for you to run Linux without having addiction problems. Now you’re resorting to an OS that spies on you and fills you with ads, is that really what you want?
Ah awesome. The database horizontal scaling is a solved problem already luckily, especially an enterprise database like PostgreSQL has lots of options there.
as developers we would rather focus on optimizations which will benefit everyone, not only the largest instances.
Oh sure, but being able to horizontally scale shouldn’t hurt small instances 😉 Personally I’d probably host a single-user instance at some point just like I do with Mastodon, so I personally don’t really have a need for horizontal scaling either but it’s good to think of those things.
Is Lemmy made with horizontal scaling (a.k.a. launching more instances and have a load balancer proxy the requests to the various instances) in mind? It could help larger instances like lemmy.ml managing the load better rather than just putting it on a beefier machine.
Not just switching audio when appropriate, I can’t get it to play any audio on the headset whatsoever. Yeah it’s still possible to play with the audio on my PC speakers but it’s a severely worse experience sadly.
Personally I’m experiencing https://github.com/ValveSoftware/SteamVR-for-Linux/issues/334 so I can’t help you sorry. Hope you find the answer though!
I’m jealous you’re even able to play it on X11. I’ve played it exclusively on Windows purely because VR on Linux is too buggy with my setup. At first the VR window only showed on my desktop and not actually on my Valve Index, and after finding a workaround it only plays at 90Hz with stuttering. Even if I manage to play through that there is the issue that audio doesn’t play through the headset and you can’t configure audio devices from within SteamVR. It’s a big mess honestly…
Monado (a FOSS OpenXR runtime) works fine however, I wish Steam just used that underneath…
Also I’ll be honest I have no idea what mastodon is.
Mastodon is to Twitter what Lemmy is to Reddit: a decentralized alternative built on the ActivityPub protocol for the fediverse.
Can give you some examples? That is definitely not my experience, the few subreddits I visit often only have memes every once and while and they often get removed quickly by the mods redirecting them to dedicated meme subreddits.
You live in a climate that’s not supposed to be that warm (not as long and as often as it is nowadays anyway), and is supposed to be rainy, windy and cold. Rather than hoping the climate will change I would recommend you look into moving somewhere south where the climate is naturally warmer.
The current heat waves are a sign of climate change, and it’s nothing to be celebrated even if you love the heat, somehow.
