One of my company’s customers is a DoD contractor that uses the government version of Teams, which does require Chromium, unfortunately. Or at least, I haven’t found a way to make it work on Firefox yet.

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.

I mean. I can’t because I defederated from Threads. But neat, I guess.

That work has already started with Fediseer. It’s not automatic, but it’s really easy, which is probably the best we’ll get for a while.

I’m sorry I didn’t call out every exception to the rule. Obviously, if you do illegal things on my instance, I will care. I kind of thought that was a given, to be honest.

I run an instance. I promise, I have literally 0 care about who you are. I have much more productive things to do with my time.

I haven’t had a deletion request come around yet, but I’ve had the pict-rs documentation in my back pocket just in case. My instance allows NSFW, so I made sure I knew how to do this before deploying.

I agree with the author, though, it definitely shouldn’t be so hard to delete images. Hopefully the Lemmy devs tackle these issues quickly.

complexities of Distrobox

they unironically say in comparison to the arcane language of fucking Nix, lmao

In addition to what’s been mentioned, Bazzite also updates the kernel and graphics drivers more often than SteamOS, so yes, while things are slightly more likely to break every now and then, there are some decent performance gains to be had.

I love Bazzite, but I wish they would fix the no audio after wake on the OLED. I encountered it often while running the testing release, so I went back to SteamOS to wait for a stable release with the fix. Imagine my disappointment when they released a new stable version with the bug still present. :(

So they’re repurposing surviving pancreas cells to produce insulin like the destroyed beta cells used to, but what are they doing about the autoimmune response? Will my immune system just kill the new insulin-producing cells as well?

Rare good guy Google?

Skimping on cost is how disasters happen. Ask Richard Hammond. “Spared no expense” my ass, hire more than 2 programmers, you cheap fuck.

Edit: This was supposed to be a Jurassic Park reference, but my dumb ass mixed up John Hammond and Richard Hammond. That’s what I get for watching Top Gear and reading at the same time.

I mean, I have a ton of media that Plex recognizes automatically and Jellyfin doesn’t, so… Agree to disagree, I guess. I’m not trying to defend Plex’s recent enshittification, but that doesn’t change the fact that it’s generally a better experience than Jellyfin right now.

Plex is definitely easier to set up. I’ve done it multiple times over several servers. I’ve literally never heard of the database breaking, and I’ve deleted media that was actively being watched. Meanwhile, Jellyfin fails basic metadata matching on the exact same media set and also lacks built-in SSO. One of the biggest niceties of Plex is inviting people to join and they can just immediately login with Google.

I’m not saying Plex is better, and I’m not defending their recent enshittification. It’s gotten worse, for sure. And I’m sure Jellyfin is great, but I haven’t had time to put the effort in to fix the metadata issues or create accounts so my users can switch over.

It’s unfortunate that Jellyfin is just slightly worse than Plex at pretty much everything. Playback is smooth, sure, but set up is harder, getting good metadata is harder, logging in is harder, etc.

The metadata one really put me off. I set up a Jellyfin instance with the exact same media set as my Plex instance, and it immediately started “recognizing” standard movies and shows as porn and hentai. I’m still going to push through and get it properly set up eventually, but even so, I’m not looking forward to manually managing accounts when people can just SSO with Plex.
