2·1 day agoI think mpd is better suited to your purpose than any GUI media player.
Note that despite its network support, it can run and be controlled locally. Cantata uses it, for example.
The kernel log you posted appears to be from an X11 session. (Note the many instances of AppArmor allowing Xorg to do things.) You’ll probably need the Wayland logs if you want to troubleshoot Wayland.
Unfortunately, I can’t guide you, since I’m not using Nvidia or Wayland.
2·3 days agoWhat a rude response. Also, you seem to have mistaken me for someone else.
If you want to do a background check, you’ll probably want to start with Matthew Hodgson.

He is very open and communicative about his role in Matrix, so I would be surprised if you didn’t find him with just a little bit of reading/searching.
In my experience, Matrix has a lot of misleading functionalities
What misleading functionalities?
I don’t have a problem with the org offering services to law enforcement, governments, businesses, etc. Funding like this is how they are able to pay the bills without turning to venture capital or user exploitation.
I did see the GN video. They explicitly stated that they didn’t find a hard link. And, as you pointed out, Amdocs stopped funding almost a decade ago.
You seem to have made up your mind, though. I won’t try to change it.
in Matrix’s case it’s a big roadblock, as the main Matrix server hosted by Matrix themselves has unfortunately become the defacto main server that most people use, which means not federating with it massively reduces the ability for someone to just be able to seamlessly hop onto your server unless they too are on one of the smaller, less popular servers.
Maybe. But on the other hand, Matrix is only just beginning to become known among gamers, and there are a lot of us. Seems like a good time for people to stand up a new servers and invite the gaming masses.
it would likely be a bit of a deal breaker if you met someone in an online game somewhere, and then invited them to your self-hosted Matrix server, only to discover they are on the main potentially israeli intelligence-tied Matrix instance,
I’ve seen occasional claims of that for a few years now, yet not once have I seen any credible evidence of it. Not in their own weekly reports. Not from journalists. Not in spec drafts or issue trackers or organizational structure. Nowhere. This particular legend smells more like fearmongering to me. At the most, it looks more like the distant connection that the internet has to the US military: Sure, part of its origin story might have been there, but it’s not relevant any more.
(Also, if your goal is to avoid Israeli intelligence-tied people seeing your room meta-data, you probably shouldn’t be inviting strangers to join. After all, there’s no way to know who they really are, regardless of what homeserver they use or what chat platform you’re on.)
For what it’s worth, account portability (giving people a way to switch homeservers) is on the Matrix roadmap.
The issue is that due to the way Matrix is structured, it essentially copies ALL of your serber’s metadata to every instance, including the main Matrix server.
This is false. Data is only copied to instances participating in the relevant rooms.
You’d have to be extremely cautious who you federate with to avoid that, or not federate at all,
Or just don’t invite users into your private rooms if they come from servers that you want to exclude.

Does he expect sympathy now?
51·4 days agoOptimization was a major topic at the show, with several panels dedicated to how creators can make games more efficiently.
This is long overdue.
Game optimization is not a lost art. It’s time studios (and publishers) returned to prioritizing it during development.

Since this is a gaming rig, I think it’s worth considering an X3D CPU instead of the 9700X. The extra cache has been known to help games quite a bit.

The word negligible here contradicts your point. Did you mean minute?
The card recommendations you’re getting are reasonable.
I’ll just add that, as a long time Linux user, I no longer buy Nvidia. Although their drivers can work for gaming, I’ve had far fewer problems outside of gaming since I switched to AMD a few years ago.
(I’m also glad to no longer be supporting Nvidia’s business practices, but that’s not the main reason I switched.)

It is believed that the intended destinations were the exotic pet markets in Europe and Asia.
A couple of minutes. I did a search to find a video from the right time, and quickly scanned through it to find a frame showing the science menu.
Nobody has claimed otherwise.
But he’s unlikely to get much sympathy from people who notice that what he does for work shouldn’t be allowed, let alone paid out of their pockets.
I hope this little interview is entirely on-device. It would be terrible if installing apps of our choice on our hardware required any contact with Google (even in the background).
