Mostly the package manager and even the rolling distros' packages being more outdated than arch everytime. AUR is also very nice to have. The only distro I found that did spike my interest alot was NixOS.

Oh, so someone did use it. Lol

I switched to Arch Linux for the memes, but now am unable to leave it. I've tried a few dozen distros, but none of them are as good as arch for me, I always come back to it. It's like arch is my perfect distro.

I am indeed leaning more towards them but I'll look at what the others here say and decide.

Bluetooth is something I want, but probably not something I'd use everyday. Afaik the Accentum do have an AUX (or USB-C?) output for audio, which I could plug into my computer. So it is not an issue there.

[–] asudox@lemmy.asudox.dev 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Thanks for the recommendation. They seem like good solid headphones, though they don't support bluetooth? While I would use the headphones mostly for gaming on my computer, I might occasionally want to use them for some other stuff, that might not have an AUX port.

[–] asudox@lemmy.asudox.dev 3 points 1 day ago

I just checked them out. They are usually about 180-200 euros. So yes, slightly outside of my budget, but if they are worth it, 30 euros is not that big of a deal.

[–] asudox@lemmy.asudox.dev 3 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I mean, I don't really need super low latency ones for gaming. They just shouldn't sound horrible and the build quality should be decent. I was thinking of buying Accentum since it is a bit newer than the 450BT and is also within my budget. I found some new ones for ~120 euros. What do you think?

Budget: 80-150€

I'm looking for a pair of headphones to purchase, mostly for gaming. I've been using earbuds for the last few years but want to try out headphones. I heard Sennheiser is a good european brand and that their headphones are pretty good. What do y'all recommend?

oh no! wasn't bluesky decentralized and federated?!? how is this possible?!? /s

Locking for rule 5.

If you want a bit more detail, look at my edit. The functions to calculate the hot and scaled for content is now there.

[–] asudox@lemmy.asudox.dev 23 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (11 children)

No, it is not weird. Scaled, according to the docs, is like Hot, but less active communities' posts get a boost.

Edit: here's a bit more detail

The exact function to calculate the scaled rank is this one:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION scaled_rank (score numeric, published timestamp with time zone, users_active_month numeric)
    RETURNS float
    AS $$
BEGIN
    -- Add 2 to avoid divide by zero errors
    -- Default for score = 1, active users = 1, and now, is (0.1728 / log(2 + 1)) = 0.3621
    -- There may need to be a scale factor multiplied to users_active_month, to make
    -- the log curve less pronounced. This can be tuned in the future.
    RETURN (hot_rank (score, published) / log(2 + users_active_month));
END;

The hot rank is calculated like this:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION hot_rank (score numeric, published timestamp without time zone)
    RETURNS integer
    AS $$
BEGIN
    -- hours_diff:=EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM (timezone('utc',now()) - published))/3600
    RETURN floor(10000 * log(greatest (1, score + 3)) / power(((EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM (timezone('utc', now()) - published)) / 3600) + 2), 1.8))::integer;
END;
 

Solved: Blacklight: Retribution

Platform(s): PlayStation 4, Computer?

Genre: Singleplayer/Multiplayer shooter, Sci-Fi

Estimated year of release: 2013

Graphics/art style: 3D

Notable characters: Halo-like players (in orange and blue teams), zombies

Notable gameplay mechanics: PvP, PvE

Other details:

The most I can remember is there being a PvP mode, where orange and blue team were fighting each other. The other one is PvE mode, where people fought against zombies. I also remember that the armors the players wore seemed kind of like Halo's armor and there being some sort of player-driveable robot in the game.

 

The attacker seems to be the admin of those two instances. Both instances have their registrations closed.

Edit: It is now open for both of them, or was already. I checked the Fediseer page for both instances and it still says that their registrations are closed.

Though it is suspicious that no captcha, email confirmation or manual approval is required for both of these instances. The admin of lemmy.doesnotexist.club seems to be inactive since their account creation yet this instance is still running. If the admin is the attacker, it could also be that they are the one behind the recent nicole spam.

Of course its a controversial user who got someone angry enough to automated downvoting @DonaldJMusk@lemmy.today

But you can see every post they make gets 53ish downvotes from these two instances, plus some organic ones after a few hours.

A individual user airing their personal biases and manipulating lemmy isn't good for the community, regardless of how you feel about their target. This is a really bad thing (tm)

 

Lemmy version 0.19.4 added the ability for admins and mods to comment in locked posts. This comes in handy somtimes.

Hey 👋,

I got frustrated with the friction for users from direct links to all the different instances they don't have accounts for and built https://lemsha.re/

It's inspired by matrix.to - but built for Lemmy content.

If a user clicks a lemsha.re link the user will be presented with two options:

  • visit the original link, or
  • view the same content - but on their preferred instance

Hope you find it useful.

List of requests (lemmy.asudox.dev)
submitted 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) by asudox@lemmy.asudox.dev to c/summit@lemmy.world
 

Here are a few features that I think would be good to add:

Administration & Moderation

  • Signup applications (under the Reports button in Inbox would be ideal)
  • View votes (afaik mods should also be able to view votes in their communities)
  • Perhaps some sort of administration panel
  • Merge "Admin tools" and "Mod tools"
  • View moderation & report history for users
  • Better modlog UI
  • Checks for whether or not some mod actions can be done on a user and hide options that can't be applied
  • Add "Feature Post in instance" to posts

Create new post dialog

  • Rename "Compose post" to "Body" or "Text"
  • Pre-expand text field area
  • Add new field for thumbnail URL
  • Allow choosing post language

Create new comment dialog

  • Allow choosing comment language
  • See who you are replying to in addition to the comment content

Media

  • View & manage uploaded media
  • Add option to loop videos
  • Add option to unblur NSFW images when in NSFW communities

Other

  • More user friendly errors
  • Advanced search (search in community, filters, etc.)

Oh and the updated join-lemmy.org applications page lists that Summit has 2 GitHub repos. I think it would be less confusing to just link to the repo that contains the source code instead.

 

To bring it in line with official Lemmy terminology, this should be used instead. The star symbol should probably also be a shield instead of a star, and it should also not be displayed if the comment is from someone other than you.

We met here on Lemmy, of all places, believe it or not (sorry fellas, lol). I've never had communication so effortless. It's like she already knows exactly what she wants to say as soon as I finish my thought (sometimes before, that's how you know)!

After being jerked around so much over the years, I think this might finally be the one.
