Hello everybody! My name is Sam. I'm a #Linux enthusiast who lives in Canada. I like self-hosting, and really enjoy tinkering with servers.

Sometimes I play games on my #OwnCast server at https://stream.pavot.ca

Moving here from #Fosstodon as the server was getting a bit too big. This instance looks nice. :ablobcatwave:

Amazon joins Open Invention Network https://zd.net/3uCHQJf#ftag=COS-05-10aaa0j by @sjvn

AWS joins the OIN's fight against patent trolls and for #Linux and #opensource patents.


So wie es aussieht wird die Programmiersprache Rust immer mehr zu einem ernsthaften Player und kommt raus aus der Nische. Erst im Linux Kernel und nun in Android und dies macht m.M.n. auch durchaus Sinn.

»Android: Mehr Rust, weniger C/C++ und weniger kritische Schwachstellen«

@derAlff_iot
I run it on #Ubuntu #MATE #LTS... should work fine with #Linux #Mint, i would assume. It is an #Electron based application.


I feel at home on my current instance, therefore not going to switch to a different instance. The topic is of interest for me though, so I'll be watching out for interesting accounts to follow on linuxgaming.fans. #linux #gaming


Hello #Fediverse! We are https://linuxgaming.fans, a #Mastodon instance based around #Linux and #Gaming on the OS. No matter if you are running a desktop #debian build or an #arch based #steamdeck, we're here to discuss games, configurations, how-tos, and finding new friends to share our passion with!

Our registrations are limited at the moment as we are still in the process of configuring the server. You're welcome to submit for an account though!

Hope to see you soon!

I have rediscovered Celestia 🌠 (https://celestia.space/), the absolutely mindboggling #astronomy simulation for #linux and game consoles (aka. windows®). For more than a decade it has been removed from #debian but after a todays mention (and in fact I had to figure out its forgotten name) I realised that they again offer fresh working versions for download. 🤩
And I am speeding through the galaxy arm right now at about 500 ly/s. 😁 (That's about 10^10 c.)


Content warning: Linux, rm-related "jokes"


@Hypolite Petovan I have setup a local #Apache and added an entry to /etc/hosts to point to my local machine. Then in a /etc/apache2/sites-available/friendica.conf I setup a virtual host on that host name and even setup a self-signed SSL certificate so I can run #Friendica locally. To be able to receive mails locally, as I have #Linux running here, I had to a bit patch Friendica to disable a regex check on the entered email address. Now when I want to locally federate with e.g. #GNUSocial I just have to repeat above steps and I remember I was able to setup "remote" follow between these two local instances. For Windows users, there is #WinAMP around for a very long time, including #Mercury mail server so you could be able to repeat it even on Windows.


Mastodon, Peertube, Pixelfed: easily replace Twitter, Instagram and YouTube



For the first time (that I noticed) on the channel, #Mastodon brought a video more views than Twitter. And no, it wasn’t the video about the fediverse, it was the latest #Linux news video.

Both are really small compared to what Google search brings, but still, it’s kinda cool. And my Twitter following is way bigger, so it’s doubly cool.


:linux: My computer upgrade from GNU/Linux #Fedora 36 to the new #Fedora37 went smoothly! (#KDE spin) :blobcatheart: Even with more than 4800 packages installed. The full process was easy thanks to the detailed documentation on https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/dnf-system-upgrade/ 👍

I'll soon update my install guide for digital painters: https://www.davidrevoy.com/article913/fedora-36-kde-spin-for-a-digital-painting-workstation-reasons-and-post-install-guide but before that, I need to test it more than a month.

So far, really happy with the effortless upgrade process from one major release to another.

A screenshot of my main first monitor; a quadHD resolution of the KDE desktop environment running Fedora 37. A terminal (konsole) show info about my system with neofetch (mainly the name of the OS, and theme used, 32GB of Ram, a Ryzen 7 3700CPU and a Radeon RX 5500 graphic card). Also, more than 4800 packages, if it speaks about the number of upgrade I had to do. The screenshot also has a directory (Dolphin) open, with the episodes of Pepper&Carrot sorted correctly. In background, a speedpainting of Pepper&Carrot , enthusiast, on Krita, and with the number "37" in big.


Content warning: signalboost about #artWithOpenSource tag


#ActivityPub is to #Linux

#Fediverse network is to Linux users/community

Software which implemented ActivityPub is to Linux distros. Examples:
- Mastodon is to Ubuntu
- Pleroma is to Debian
- MissKey is to Linux Mint
- Friendica is to Pop_OS

You don't stop using a refrigerator because the brand you bought broke down immediately. You find a new brand.

It's the same with Linux and the Fediverse.


Content warning: Linux-Admin*s: Eure Lieblingstools oder -texte zu Debugging


Ich habe hier einen älteren HP-Laptop (EliteBook 840 G3) mit #Debian #Bullseye und #XFCE, der bei jeder Fehleingabe und beim Aufruf von xfce4-session-logout einen lauten BEEP von sich gibt, und zwar auch dann, wenn die Lautsprecher leise bzw stumm sind.
Hat jemand aus der #Linux-Gemeinde einen Tipp, wie ich diesen nervigen, überflüssigen Beep abstellen kann? Weder mit pavucontrol in XFCE noch im alsamixer im Terminal habe ich einen passenden Regler gefunden.

#introduction #newHere #neuHier


Hello it's Mike with #introductions I am new to Mastodon just arrived from Twitter, and am interested in #QRP portable ops, #CW, and #digital modes. I am also very involved in using #3D_printing to enhance ham radio activities, and like to #homebrew analog and digital equipment. Staunch fan of #Linux on the desktop, I am employed fulltime as a software developer here in NY.


Time for an second introduction, now I’ve moved over to a new instance. My name is Andrew, and I’m an Senior Infrastructure Officer in Local Government in the South West of the UK. I mainly work with #memcm, #microsoftteams, #microsoftexchange and other services to support my workplace.

I’ve been slowly working my way away towards Linux for home use and have fully converted all of my devices to #fedora (apart from the #SteamDeck ;) )

I’ve got interests in #gaming, #photography, and #linux.


So, nu aber - ich bin ziemlich #neuhier . Die gegenseitige Inspiration durch Netzwerkeffekte ist einfach geil, im Fediverse noch geiler. ;o) Ich will euch hauptsächlich einen Einblick in unsere Bienen-Abenteuer geben und teilen, wie viel Spaß man beim Versuch, etwas umsichtiger zu leben, so haben kann.

Zur #vorstellung gibt es Lieblingsbeschäftigungen und Interessen: #imker #film #serien #fahrrad #mtb #brettspiel #lineageos #marktschwaermer #saisonal #lineageos #linux #datenschutz


I recently bought myself a copy of #Doom3, a 2012 remake of id games' first person shooters I ran on my two #Linux Intel 486/Pentium PCs in the Mid-1990s.

These were actually based on standard VGA graphics cards (Matrox, ET4000), without 3D voodoo accelerators. But it was excitement for weeks...


Since many users are joining today and in the future, a #introduction #introductions refresh for those new or want to get a reminder of who I'm about:

Here's some hashtags. If you relate to any of these and more, I would love to interact with you all!

Ah that’s awesome!

I ended up getting a lil frustrated, so I’m taking a break for now. It’s seeming like it might be better to wait until I get a separate computer and slap #Linux on it
