It will compile and install the module for you. All it means is that whenever your kernel is updated, the install process will take around 5 minutes longer than it otherwise would whilst it compiles the dkms module for you.

If you use the lts kernel package, your kernel updates will be infrequent.

If you use the regular arch linux kernel package, it will update every few weeks like it does now, and each time, your package installation process will run a few minutes longer due to the need to compile the driver

I’ve got one already, with pedals. But I don’t have dedicated space to use it, so it never comes out :\

The PS5 lets me play Gran Turismo with VR. and turn by using the gyro function on the controller, effectively mimicking a dedicated steering wheel by turning the controller itself rather than stick steering. I could use a wheel, but without a dedicated space to keep the wheel, setting it up and packing it down is just too much of an issue. Gyro steering gives me much of the same control as a wheel does, but without the hassle.

So gyro steering and VR together was a game changer for me. They were so amazing that I can’t play racing games any other way now…

But VR on the PS5 is basically dead in the water, so hardly any games support it, and gyro steering is basically unheard of in most racing games. So it’s pretty much Gran Turismo…

In theory it’s technically possible to use the PS VR headset on my PC, and configure gyro steering, but so far, the combination of getting them all working and configured correctly AND finding a game that supports it all has defeated me…

But you’re also betting that the economy will come back alive soon enough because without it all you have is a heavy pile of metal.

You probably don’t even have that. Unless you have your own vault, someone else is holding it for you, and if things collapse far enough, good luck ever seeing it

The latter

My relationship with gender didn’t so much manifest that way.

Before I came out and accepted myself, I openly told myself I “should have been a girl”, but I also believed I wasn’t, and that was that. I didn’t really feel anything at the idea of femininity. That was my experience of feeling gender

This is just regular moderation, though.

It’s using the existing tool, but making a small portion of them (approving applications) available to a much larger pool of people

it doesn’t resolve the question I raised about what happens when two instances disagree about whether an account is a bot.

If the instance that hosts it doesn’t think it’s a bot, then it stays, but is blocked by the instance that does think its a bot.

And if the instance that thinks its a bot also hosts it, it gets shut down.

That is regular fediverse moderation

Yeah, but that’s after the fact, and after their content has federated to other instances.

It doesn’t solve the bot problem, but just plays whack a mole with them, whilst creating an ever large amount of moderation work, due to it federating to multiple instances.

Solving the bot problem means stopping the content from federating, which either means stopping the bot accounts from registering, or stopping them from federating until they’re known to be legit.

I mean, approving users, you just let your regular established users approve instance applications. All they need to do is stop the egregious bots from getting through. And if there is enough of them, the applications will be processed really quickly. If there is any doubt about an application, let them through, because they can be caught afterwards. And historical applications are already visible, and easily checked if someone has a complaint.

And if you don’t like the idea of trusted users being able to moderate new accounts, you can tinker with that idea. Let accounts start posting before their application has been approved, but stop their content from federating outwards until an instance staff member approves them. It would let people post right away without requiring approval, and still get some interaction, but it would mitigate the damage that bots can do, by containing them to a single instance.

My point is, there are options that could be implemented. The status quo of open sign ups, with a growing number of bots doesn’t have to be the unquestioned approach going forward.

How do you figure that? There’s nothing centralised about it

Make sign ups require approval and create a “trusted user” permission level that lets the regular trusted users on the instance see and process pending sign up requests and suspend/delete brand new spam accounts (say under 24 hours old) that slip through the cracks. You can have dozens of people across all timezones capable of approving requests as the are made, and capable of shutting down the bots that slip through.

Boom, bot problem solved

It sounds like depersonalisation to me. A form of dissociation.

Lots of trans people deal with it when they’re closeted. I know I did.

I don’t understand. Why not do whatever you normally do to edit and post videos?

Make a video telling people you’ve moved

Kagi has an LLM community register they automatically use to filter their results

Time travel/alternate dimension stories that don’t just use infinite dimensions as a cheap way of avoiding complexity. Once you have infinite timelines, it’s all meaningless, because whatever story you’re trying to tell loses all sense of importance, because whatever didn’t happen in one version still happens in another. Who cares if the character saves their family, when there are an infinite variety of worlds where they’re not saved.

It’s possible to tell stories about infinite timelines, where the weirdness of having infinite duplicates is an important part of the story (Dark Matter).

It’s possible to tell stories where there are alternate timelines, but only a finite number (The Peripheral/Counterpart/Alice)

And it’s possible to tell stories where there is only one timeline, and gracefully navigate the paradox (The Pern Series/All You Zombies/11.22.63)

I can’t get enough of stories that handle it well!

I used photoprism for a long time, but when I tried immich, I dropped photoprism in an instant.

Who said it would be entirely men?

First hand experience

'cause I know I feel welcome, and not completely othered and invalidated when I’m forced to play on a team that is otherwise entirely men, whom have athletic advantage over me

If only it wasn’t so cold! :)
