Maintenance unsuccessful, yet complete (lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz)
 

We ran into some unexpected issues upgrading the instance to the latest Lemmy version, and troubleshooting was starting to take too long and extend past the previously given maintenance window. As such, we decided to restore from backup and attempt the upgrade again another day, next time with a larger maintenance window.

Everything should be back as it was before the downtime. The next maintenance will be announced soon.

Thanks for your patience!

Correct. Unfortunately, it's something that each desktop environment or window manager has to implement themselves. But all the button is doing is moving some config files around, so you can probably do some digging to figure out what it's copying to where.

This is the system settings application for the KDE desktop environment.

Literally yes. And you don't even need to know the exact pixel resolution of the TV.

Edit: Here are the problems with you "Wayland isn't good enough" people.

First, you don't use Wayland, so you don't even know if it's fixed whatever weird issue you encountered with it before or if it supports a niche use case, for example.

Second, Wayland won't get good enough for you until you start using it and reporting bugs. You think X11 was a bed of roses when it first started? Or do you think they bumped the version number 11 times for fun?

Not sure if you're a troll, but if you're serious, nothing I say is going to change your mind, so I won't bother.

If you're using Wayland, you can go to Settings -> Colors & Themes -> Login Screen (SDDM) and click "Apply Plasma Settings..."

If you're using X11, it looks like you'll have to resort to hacky scripts, unfortunately.

SMTV:V Hype Thread in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I played 10 or so hours of base SMTV and really enjoyed it, but I definitely felt like it was hampered by the choice of platform, which turned me off. Tons of FPS drops and performance issues. I'm hoping SMTV:V is at least Gold rated for Steam Deck so that I still have the portability aspect.

I played through SMTIV a few years ago and have SMTIV:A, but never touched it. Is it different enough to check out, or should I just stick to SMTV:V?

Same! Senior dev here with both dyscalculia and dysgraphia. Numbers literally transpose for me, for example when I'm filling out a restaurant receipt and calculating tip+total. It's wild.

We'll be taking the instance down for maintenance at 2PM UTC on Saturday 29 June. Use this to convert to your local time.

The instance will be upgraded to Lemmy 0.19.5, which requires upgrading several other services Lemmy relies on.

The maintenance window will be 3 hours

Disappointment with Links Awakening Remake (NSW); what could have been a great game hampered by lacklustre controls. in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I'm curious, my playthroughs of both the original and the remake were so long ago - but does D-pad movement buy the player anything? I agree it's rather silly that it's not an option, but I don't remember being hampered by the control scheme in any way.

I believe you can thank Taylor Hawkins for that. I know he was her tour drummer, but I'm pretty sure he wrote drum parts during his time with her, as well.

Oh nice! I just use Lutris, but options are always good.

So that file can go anywhere you want, but ~/bin is a good spot (or ~/.bin if you like a tidy home folder). You can name it whatever you want, but I'd personally name it steam.sh. And then in the Buddy settings, use that file as your new Steam binary.

What issues are you having? I may be able to help.

MoonDeck is awesome! (github.com)
 

I found MoonDeck while perusing the Decky plugin store and it's absolutely awesome. I've had Moonlight and Sunshine set up for a while because Steam streaming is very inconsistent between Deck and Linux, but I didn't use it often because it's a pain setting up launchers in Sunshine for each individual game. MoonDeck takes the hassle out of that completely, and I find myself streaming GPU-intensive games to my living room much more often nowadays.

I highly recommend it!

Who needs a commit message, anyway? (github.com)
 

I was looking through various RCON tools and found this. Someone does not like commit messages.

0.19.1 to 0.19.2 Upgrade: We are currently being affected by some kind of bug (github.com)
 

Not entirely sure what happened, but a routine backend upgrade from Lemmy 0.19.1 to 0.19.2 is causing issues with the past 3ish weeks of activity. The linked bug report has a bit more detail.

I'm going to try to work with the devs to figure out exactly what happened and do my best to recover that activity.

GBA core with RTC? (lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz)
 

I've searched around, but the only GBA core that seems to exist is spiritualized's, which doesn't have RTC support and hasn't had a release in over a year. I was actually under the impression that RTC support in cores wasn't possible, but then budude2 just released his GB/GBC core that does have RTC support. So now I'm wondering if it's possible for GBA.

I ask because I play a ton of Pokemon ROM hacks that take advantage of time changes, and it would be nice to have some of the core features of the Pocket. For example, sleep/wake doesn't work for Everdrives, and save states / memories are iffy.

Maintenance complete! (lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz)
 

The storage backend for the instance has been upgraded, which means the instance should be faster by quite a bit. It also enables a few new data resiliency features, which is pretty cool. Hopefully we don't need them, but better safe than sorry!

Please report any issues on this post or a new post in [email protected].

Thanks for your patience as we work to improve your Lemmy experience.

Maintenance downtime Friday 22 Dec, 6PM UTC (lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz)
 

We'll be taking the instance down for maintenance at 6PM UTC on Friday, 22 Dec. Use this to convert to your local time.

This maintenance is due to a much-needed storage upgrade, which will hopefully speed up the instance quite a bit. The maintenance window will be 3 hours to account for full system backup and restore, but I'm hoping we'll be done quicker than that.

Now running Lemmy 0.19 (lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz)

We are now running Lemmy 0.19! There were a lot of cool changes in this release, definitely check out the release notes if you're interested in the specifics.

The important ones for users are:

  1. Improved Post Ranking - Scaled sort! This is similar to Reddit's Hot sort, that is, ranking is based on the proportion of votes to active users, not just votes. This will greatly improve visibility for small communities, which is great!

  2. Instance Blocking for Users - Users can now block entire instances themselves. If there's an instance you personally dislike but doesn't technically break our instance rules, you're now free to block it yourself.

  3. Two Factor Rework - Enabling 2FA is now a two-step process, so it's harder to lock yourself out.

There may be breakage depending on what Lemmy client you use, so be sure your client supports the breaking changes in 0.19.
