A Raspberry Pi device with RGB lights!? Yep, the 500+ is just that. ๐Ÿ”ด๐ŸŸข๐Ÿ”ต

in reply to It's FOSS

It was an instant purchase for me, excited to get #OpenRGB working on it. It also seems to be a standard VIAL RGB firmware which means I have a test device to potentially support way more keyboards than just the Pi 500+. And it will double as an ARM build server.

@TTimo another for the web team at Valve, the Steam official news is missing Steam Client Beta stuff store.steampowered.com/news/coโ€ฆ

Has pretty much everything else

in reply to TTimo

I would have thought *everything* Steam official would go into the main Steam official news feed, currently Steam Deck beta updates are but Steam desktop beta updates are not

so that's the issue i'm highlighting, as either it should have both or only stable?


in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

The price isn't really surprising but I don't think they can be a competitor to the Steam Deck this way. I also suspect that they'll have a pretty much locked down bootloader / BIOS, so maybe no way to install other OSes.

Congratulations to my local computer company, @system76, for the beta release of @pop_os_official COSMIC. I've been running the alpha happily for months on my Lemur and Colorado-built Thelio. Thanks to open source, plus a visionary team, a small business can be a world leader in manufacturing and interface design. system76.com/pop/pop-beta/
in reply to Nathan Schneider

I have a 2016 vintage Oryx Pro that I was hoping to turn into a server, but the fan is always on 100%. I keep a non #NixOS partition around just in the hope that some accompanying firmware update will fix this, so #PopOS_COSMIC update, here I come ๐Ÿคž

Yeah, fan control has always been an issue with S76, but it is improved for sure.

in reply to Muse

In my recollection the earliest form of centralization and lock-in was the gradual disappearance of Usenet servers, pushed on by widespread adoption of NNTP (and INN), forced by the decline of controls and desire to keep binaries from being posted (which upped the ante to require large bandwidth and even larger storage), with eventually only one or two very large sites that charged a fee even to get an NNTP feed. Now there's just Giganews and unless you're a content provider they don't want to peer with you at all. Apparently they do have non-binary NNTP feeds for peering with content providers though, with maximum article size limited to under 100kB. Last time I bothered to look (a few years ago) the community aspect of Usenet was entirely gone, and had been for years.

ROBERT: I'M TYPING THIS IN MY OUTSIDE VOICE BECAUSE YOU DON'T SEEM TO HEAR ME WHEN I USE MY INSIDE VOICE.

STOP POSTING SCREEN CAPS OF TEXT WITHOUT ALT TEXT. IN FACT, SKIP THE SCREEN CAP ALTOGETHER AND JUST POST THE FUCKING TEXT.

THANKS IN ADVANCE.

in reply to Matt Jordan

Some instances have a 500 character limit on posts, so you either create an annoyingly long thread, or screen cap the message and alt text as much of the message as you can, which is 1500 characters. Iโ€™m guilty of posting multiple photos with lengthy alt texts to convey a thought. In my John Mulaney voice - โ€œIโ€™m Sorry"
in reply to Eugen Rochko

@Gargron @muhkayoh Iโ€™m good with 500 on posts and 1500 on alt text. If I need to be more long-winded than that, I should put it on a blog. Itโ€™s an exercise in economizing words.
in reply to Eugen Rochko

@Gargron @ArrowbearMoore @muhkayoh though to be fair, masto.ai could have a custom character limit set of like two (though that is highly unlikely)
in reply to Robert Reich

Hi Robert, is there anything our team at Mastodon could do to convince you to post text on Mastodon and share screenshots of it to other platforms if necessary? Mastodon is highly accessible for sharing outside the platform and has a higher 500 character limit.
in reply to Eugen Rochko

@Gargron
Robert, I really value getting your insight without having to touch horrible platforms like FB. Please consider adding ALT text or posting text.๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ
in reply to Eugen Rochko

The @rbreich account is one of the most frustrating accounts on Mastodon - no alt text, always screenshots. It's either a bot, or a superfan - but either way it can't be bothered with alt text, which kinda goes against the spirit of fedi of be accessibility and inclusivity

I'm sure other people have noted this but at some point we went from talking about "social network sites" to talking about "social media sites".

At first, the network was the thing that mattered. Then, the media was the thing that mattered.

A quick Google Trends query shows the shift might have happened around 2012:
