They’re designed to run constantly, and your GPU is designed to run with some heat. I highly doubt you’re maxing out either like you would with a demanding game. Fans are much cheaper than a new separate device, and your GPU will become outdated long before it dies to wear and tear.
Why will using your PC “run it into the ground”? Unless you’re trying to use it for something else simultaneously, it seems like you’ve already got a solution there.
Actual copyleft licenses like the GPL are analogous to leftists (the name might be a clue); they actually care about protecting the rights of the little guy.
“Permissive” licenses are analogous to liberals and/or ancaps. Arguably better than the corps/fascists, but willing to compromise with them to the point that most of their moral high ground erodes.
In addition to the other options here, Tauon is a solid GUI music player.
You are agreeing with the person you replied to lol
Downloading a video is functionally identical to watching the video. I’m not 100% sure they can’t tell, but they certainly shouldn’t care… You’re not circumventing anything by downloading a streamed video, they just obfuscate the download functionality.
You just close the window. I’ve seen this twice in the last three years and never experienced any actual change – still no ads or even black screens where ads should be.
lol okay then I’m pretty mystified. Seems like all of the major features of Discord will either be directly replicated or have functional equivalents.
So it sounds like the lack of multiple text channels is the main missing feature? I haven’t used it myself yet so I’m assuming those don’t exist, but the concept of a server seems to be pretty one-to-one with a persistently hosted workspace.
From my understanding, currently the lack of a persistent superpeer makes a long-standing community unrealistic without someone remaining constantly connected, but once that’s implemented it would just be a persistent workspace. Publish the link in a centralized location for your project and bam, you’ve got the equivalent of an official discord server.
What functionality do you think is missing?
Firefox. They’re still great, people keep freaking out over extremely benign changes.
Vim and emacs are the two most popular keyboard-driven text editors, and are something of a meme in the software world.
Really a better analogue would be tiling window managers like sway, i3, bspwm, dwm etc. but they’re also harder to get started with.
“look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power” meme but with Vim (or really this is a rare case where I have to hand it to emacs since it can basically run a whole OS)
Yeah fair, most of the more granular systems go that way. I know Pathfinder fights can take a minute as well.
Combat can be fun, but DnD in particular reeaaally drags sometimes. An excellent DM helps, but even Dimension 20 takes a full session for a big combat encounter, which is usually just exhausting IMO. I much prefer systems like PBTA that keep combat pretty breezy and improv-friendly.
I think we all know this, but it’s the exact same argument for Facebook and Twitter and LinkedIn. Getting off centralized, corporate, for-profit cloud services should be a priority for anyone who is philosophically aligned with FOSS.
Right which is why I told you about the non-profit which is the organization that’s dedicated to the open web. I feel like that’s pretty clear.
Donate to the corporation. They’re the people who work on the product.
What point do you think you’re making here?
If your concern is that the money goes to efforts for an open internet, and not too enriching any executives, then you want to donate to the non-profit, not the corporation.
Well that seems like a fairly big deal.
