I ran it on my dual core celeron and.. just kidding try the mini llama 1B. I'm in the same boat with Ryzen 5000 something cpu

Nintendo shuts down Switch emulator Ryujinx in c/[email protected]

[–] tomjuggler 11 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Well that sucks.. I'm still pissed at Roblox for their DRM rug pull on Linux. Didn't stop the bots and hackers for more than two weeks anyways - bet Ryujinx 2.0 will be out soon too.

Anyone know if DRM is cracked on Roblox yet? Just a yes or no I can find it nevermind I'll go look

YouTube has found a new way to load ads | AdGuard Blog in c/technology

[–] tomjuggler 9 points 2 months ago (4 children)

So AdGuard works on the YouTube website. I haven't been there for some time - I use 2 other methods to watch YouTube ad-free.

Newpipe - Android app that works by parsing the website, will probably be affected?
YouTube Kodi add-on - works with Google YouTube API, I was wondering when this loophole is going to be plugged..

Anyone with knowledge of the matter care to comment? So far my YouTube watching is still ad-free.

I also run pi-hole in front of my WiFi. Nothing gets through. Or will it?

I noticed some podcasts these days have random server injected ads - usually the same ad repeated 2 or 3 times, is this going to be my video stream soon?

Local, privacy respecting, open source LLM that can transcribe phone calls and summarize the call? in c/fosai

I was just thinking that, a raspberry pi working as a Bluetooth peripheral and some python code would work?

PipePipe from f-droid is a clone that seems to update more frequently than newpipe, and has the additional benefit of being able to access the Chinese and Japanese video sites bilibili and niconico (worth checking out, it's fascinating even for someone who doesn't speak the languages)

I find no motivation in working for myself in c/[email protected]

[–] tomjuggler 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It's always nice to have some motivation from doing things for others. Depending on the service, you can always host for others AND for yourself. It's 10x as much work but you do get positive feedback (sometimes..)

What do you want to have in a Lemmy instance? in c/fediverse

[–] tomjuggler 2 points 3 months ago

I had to be burned twice before learning this lesson - instances went down and I had to switch.

Pipepipe on f-droid is kept much more up to date in my experience. It's a fork so basically the same

What's your favourite harmless prank you've seen IRL? in c/asklemmy

[–] tomjuggler 0 points 4 months ago

I can't help it, whenever I see twins I say "Oh, Deja voux" out loud

So I got hit with Microsoft's Windows 11 nag screen... in c/mildlyinfuriating

Yeah the Roblox thing is hard to swallow, it used to work better on Linux than on any other platform for me. Everything else there's alternatives - my local PC shop sells machines at a significant discount "without windows installed", maybe if more did that the market would take care of things and the software vendors would have to support Linux.
