I personally couldn’t even get ssl/tls working with NPM, reverse proxying worked but it really didn’t feel right.

Eventually learned about SWAG and had a much better experience setting it up. Now here I am on Traefik thriving.

Sad day for licensed firearms owners.

But, none of the FOSS alternatives work well enough to move my friends over there, in my experience.

Been slowly moving to Matrix/Element and was able to convince two buddies to at least make accounts, currently the biggest struggle we’ve had was with the voice channels.

There appears to be two types of voice channels; Jitsi & Element Call, Jitsi works okay but screen sharing appears to not work on either Windows or Linux and also doesn’t appear to allow mobile users to connect with desktop users and vice versa. Meanwhile Element Call seems to work perfectly but there is an unnecessary extra step to install the Element X beta app for mobile for it to work.

Another gripe about Matrix is spaces/room permissions, to my understanding Spaces are like discord servers so when I make a user an Admin you expect them to get admin privilege over every room right? Welp, it’s not and you have to give them admin for every single room also, once you give someone Admin you can’t remove it and they have to do it themselves. While I understand why it’s done this way I find it quite dumb.

The fact that Matrix is apart of the fediverse is enough for me to disregard the issues I mentioned above however, for others it can be seen as a deal-breaker.

There’s a Black Mirror episode that fits perfectly here. This is the future!

If only there was an operating system that is resilient and doesn’t crumble over minor errors.

You posted the same link twice but neither of them mention or seem to relate to Proton?

Here’s hoping that Linux becomes good enough within a couple years from now.

I jumped head first into Linux without any prior knowledge a year-ish ago, I went and chose what seemed to be a simple distro (Debian) and later found out it’s one of the more difficult distros out there (also most native packages are outdated) and some how made it work day to day.

Basically every game on steam is Linux compatible and a good handful of popular anti-cheats have partnered with Valve to ensure proper compatibility.

Now the problem is, game producers (like Ubisoft & EA) have been pushing this rhetoric that Linux users are all cheaters & hackers and intentionally prevent users from connecting to their servers or even launching the games.

I think the switch isn’t as bad as you make it seem. Hope I provided some insight.

Edit - dropping ProtonDB (fixed the link)

Title says “Steal This Comic” so I did.

Sue me.

Do they enact a new law every time a new gun model comes out?

In fact it’s the opposite! A new law comes out banning a specific selection of firearms and manufacturers just make new ones under different model names.

Quite sure the Adler Arms RF-224 TAC 22Lr was made specifically with the ban in mind.

Still, the whole thing with “list of forbidden guns” sounds, if nothing else, tedious.

Welp, you essentially just expressed how most Canadian PAL/RPAL holders feel.

Ubisoft cannot be forgiven on how much time they wasted remastering all the original maps. That’s when I called it quits.

I had a poor experience with NPM which turned me to SWAG, it worked, but was a tad slow. Moved to Traefik and haven’t looked back.

Ah I understand, it’s really not hard to keep up with the law here! Once you complete your CFSC (Canadian Firearm Safety Course) you can apply for your PAL/RPAL ((Restrcited) Possesion & Acquisition License) from the RCMP, after a couple months of background checks you’ll receive your license in the mail.

Most firearms owners will opt to buy a safe first and then hit the gun-stores where they’ll have all the knowledge you need in regards to our laws.

Unfortunately on December 5th 2024 the Government of Canada listed a whole range of firearms makes & models to be reclassified as prohibited (ie: banned) while also granting amnesty for current owners in violation until October 30th 2025. given that they named the makes & models themselves means there is no modification that’ll let us take them out again.

Most firearms owners I know are waiting for a change in government before turning them over, which is fair, we’ve all gone through the proper procedures to obtain & possess these firearms and to legally take them to the range/gun-club, IPSC or gunsmiths.

Here is how Canada classifies firearms.

Some insight here -

Mossberg 590A1:

• 20” Heavy-Barrel (8+1 2-3/4”)
• Magpul Stock & Forend
• Side saddle (cannot see here) and sling
• Kept the factory bead-sight didn’t feel right putting an optic on it

Kriss Vector CRB 22Lr:

• 16” Threaded Barrel
• 10rds Magazines
• Optic was a gift can’t remember exactly but I believe it’s a Holosun HS503R
• Magpul M-Lok Foregrip/Hand-Stop

I just host a RedLib instance and browse every so often. Starting to use Lemmy more for actual interactions.
