Wonder IF this is better than Ultrasonic.
Had been a while since it was updated.

Let's see.

Good to see more love to subsonic servers for the homelabbers.

I've been following a lot of these, and unfortunately nearly all of them are dead.

  • YouAmp - Alive, jetpack compose + material v3, but very early in development. Barely any features. Probably our best hope for the future of these.
  • Tempo - The best current option, but dead for ~6 months. Has a few bugs, but lots of features. Java, not kotlin, but appears to be material 3.
  • Ultrasonic - Great option, lots of features, but dead for ~a year.
  • Dsub - Dead for 2 years, but revived now with a few bug fixes via this one. Doesn't have much of a future, not being jetpack compose / m3.
  • Subtunes - Dead for 2+ years.

Russia started the war in Ukraine, and China and North Korea have been actively helping Russia's war effort. That's not capitalism, that's imperialism.


So I get banned from lemmy.ml What now?

Valve makes a big improvement for Native Linux games in a Steam Beta update


Valve released a new update to the Steam Client Beta for Steam Deck and Desktop, with some Steam Input changes and some improvements for Linux too. It's the same across Desktop / Deck since it's a Steam Client update.

Nice. I'm playing Alien Isolation on Proton due to input problems. Gotta check if that's fixed with the update.

FYI - the owner of this site, gamingonlinux, was a mod on the !linux_gaming@lemmy.ml community until they were caught abusing their moderator powers. Then they deleted their account and complained on mastodon that it's stupid design that mod logs are public. [Screenshot]

Instead, here's a link to the official post

Wow this is honestly disappointing to see. Been reading his stuff for a while, guess I'll have to look elsewhere for Linux gaming news.

Unsurprising from Liam, he's and insufferable arse.

~~How did he get ousted~~? He setup the Lemmy community as far as I was aware?

Looks like he just quit

He may be insufferable, but imo he does do good journalism
in reply to Blisterexe

Unfortunately there's not a lot of choice when it comes to Linux games journalism.
in reply to Blisterexe

He does, and gaming on linux is an excellent resource we are fortunate to have. OTOH, GFY has now borne a grudge over this for months and makes a point of posting about it at every opportunity.

This link does not even generate any ad revenue (unless I cannot figure out how to turn off my ad blocking). It's so petty.

Lol? How is having the mod log publica bad thing? Everyone can see what shit and good a mod does in any given Community. That's a win in my book.

Transparency? Disgusting. I should be free to abuse my powers without peasants knowing, it's my god given right!


Judiska centralrådet är en mycket konservativ organsiation som anser att kritik mot Israel är antisemitism. Att de inte vill ha med Vänsterpartiet att göra är i själva verket ett beröm för Vänsterpartiet. Det visar att Vänsterpartiet står fast vid sin kritik av det odemokratiska Israel och det israeliska folkmordet på palestinier i Gaza och på Västbanken.

The whole problem with that monument is that it is "compatible with Canadian values", where Canadian values as defined by Canada's actions post ww2 were to honour nazis and welcome them into the country with open arms. Canada needs to disavow its values on this subject, in other words not honour nazis.

I need to find a way to tell Wayland to launch the ereader part of calibre flipped 90° so that I can use my SteamDeck as a tablet for book reading.

The best part of the blogpost: They are going to invest even more next year.

Last week, the budget committee of the Bundestag decided to increase the Sovereign Tech Fund's allocation by €4 million for next year. We're honored and thankful for the German Parliament's recognition of the importance of open source technologies, and for their continued trust in our work.
