Came across this tool randomly while modding skyrim and trying to find out how to get synthesis working through wine as i was having issues. This program is an appimage with a gui to allow you to set up and manage different instances of mo2 for various games as well as vortex mod manager too if you prefer that instead

it works pretty good some menus seem a bit buggier than on the prefix i had but generally across the board it works and the faq has dependencies and other info listed too! thought i would share because I'm surprised I've not seen it mentioned anywhere i just had the github appear at the top of my search when searching about synthesis.

I saw this post on reddit and im banned there so I figured I'd post here for anyone who sees this and considers it.

I've directly tried this before, it was close to a year ago though or maybe longer so maybe things changed. But I've noticed when you try to launch a game that was previously running through wine on windows instead, it can completely stop the game from launching with wine in the future unless you reinstall the game (or maybe change install drive in steam?) or do some other fix im unaware of.

That's not a problem for everyone, if you just wanna use that specific game only on windows then you're fine, but i thought this should still be kept in mind in case people decide to do this to compare performance etc.

and also in order to run games off an ntfs drive you just need to set drive permissions in your fstab. Im on the shitter rn so maybe once im back at my pc ill grab the options and edit them into this. Sometimes the drive will stop giving proper access to it and all you need to do is run fsck on the windows drive then it should work on linux properly again its just some dumb windows shit.

EDIT: uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=022,fmask=133 these are the options to add to your fstab, replace uid and gid with your user id and group id of your user account. after that games should work fine on ntfs.

i used to have an entire drive that was ntfs just to store stuff between windows and linux now its just bcache formatted to xfs though cuz i never touch windows really.

This won't be a post for people that already have dedicated server hardware, unless they find something theyd like to run off an android phone specifically.

But anyways, more people than ever have and old spare, but relatively powerful, android phone laying about. I'm talking 2-4+ gb of ram and 32gb+ of storage. Usually these devices end up in a drawer, but in an age of dystopian tracking and company overreach, such a device can be an extremely useful and low power draw tool that can improve your security and experience on the web. And it also has its own battery to boot lol.

If you're wanting to do something like this you should definitely consider finding a custom android rom with more care for security and you will need to root your device. But with a rooted device you then get access to a range of tools. You will want to install magisk through the bootloader as well as termux and termux boot from within fdroid (its important you get the two of them from the same source).

USES/SERVICES With all of these theres now a few options that I can confirm all work on android armv8 devices.

0: To set up most of these services to boot on launch you can either use magisk boot scripts in /data/adb/service.d/ iirc, or you can use termuxboot scripts placed in /data/data/com.termux/files/home/.termux/boot/

1: You can run an instance of Adguard Home on your network that will have enough resources to handle quite heavy lists. You will need to import ssl certificates to properly get it working but otherwise the armv8 binary works well. Adguard home can then be set as your network's dns address. Adguard home has lists for threat protection, to malware, to ads etc.

2: Adguard is good for security but you can experience even less tracking and control by pairing it with an instance of Unbound dnsrunning on the same device. Depending on storage you can store larger dns caches which will stop dns providers from tracking every dns lookup you do.

3: This one is more optional dependent on the person but i use and love it. Searxng is a privacy focused metasearch engine that can aggregate a bunch of data from tons of sources, depending on which sources you enable. It can be used to replace your current search engine such as duckduckgo and can gather anything from torrents and apks, to music, videos and pictures, and my favourite which is its equivalent to google scholar. All in one search engine. Its recommended to disabled certain sources for speed and I would recommend disabling brave search as a source for example because they're scummy. For Searxng it will be required to create a virtual environment with the correct python dependencies and I've had to run it through termux rather than the other two which can run even through an adb shell.

4: Memos is a nice note taking webapp and its my personal choice to use but other similar calender or note apps are a good option if you wanna self host something like that. Can be ran through an adb shell or magisk boot script.

5: Others things you wanna try!!! An android phone is just a Linux computer and if theres services you've wanted a pi to run or a server in general then theres a pretty good chance you can get it running on your power efficient android phone thats just already laying around!! Heres some more ideas ive planned to try but not gotten to yet/haven't finished: -Samba drive to sync and back up your boot drive -Aur build server to pre compile different large packages to be installed to my pc without building them on the computer itself -openvpn proxy to run downloads through a protonvpn account for download managers that dont support password authentication (a surprising amount of them tbh) -Invidious instance, a youtube frontend that doesn't count as actual page views. This allows you to boycott YouTube in regards to data they can show advertisers, while still allowing you to privately subscribe and watch creators you like. It also keeps you from being tracked by your YouTube account while giving you access to better/more consistent resolution tools as well as automatically removed ads. Youtube sponsorblock extensions can also be set up to work with invidious so you don't lose much at all switching.

I had been saying this stuff for awhile to family based on lil updates on the back end like their x86 emulation and when i first heard about waydroid integration it was so obvious they planned to make quest games easily ported over, its fuckin awesome, everything i expected and i couldnt be happier. i would love to install steamos on my quest 3 if its ever possible lol idk why i said implementing waydroid into proton and emulating quest games tho obviously ik thats not how either works i think i just mispoke in the excitement lol waydroid is implemented into steamos and quest games are natively ran through it obviously.

This is so funny because rust has one of the worst cheating situations and majority of their players are windows users, and theres lots of games that have anticheat that allows linux and have notably less significant cheating problems like marvel rivals. in reality rust doesn't take cheating very seriously because if they did they would have more server side software that detects illegitimate behaviour like tons of other games do successfully...... even most popular Minecraft servers have better functioning anti cheat that is completely server side than rust has while getting kernel access to your pc. its pathetic and lazy development tbh and this entire post from them reads like such extreme cope....

I am sharing a link to a site that will aid you in emailing your local mp in hopes of producing pressure on the Ford government in response to illegal attacks on the freedoms of community support service workers.

Hello, 

Our communities are at a breaking point. 



Children struggling with mental health challenges can’t get therapists. Adults with developmental disabilities are stuck on a waitlist for services 52,000 people long. And shelter workers, addictions counselors, legal aid staff, and countless other frontline community workers are turning to food banks themselves.


Our communities and workers in community support services deserve better.

That starts with justice for Bill 124 which capped wages, took money out of our communities, and eroded services that children and families depend on.


Send an email to your MPP today. Tell them that community services and workers are worth fighting for.

Im 21. back when i was 16 i got into a really abusive relationship with my ex who was the same age, it lasted 2 and a half years. Back then i had lots of close friends that I could talk to about anything. My ex ended up cheating on me and had a lot of mental issues she had undiagnosed, she tried to explain her abuse of me as caused by bpd. I loved her so much and i thought i cant leave and lose the love of my life. The relationship continued to break down, she would yell at me for hours and break up with me then ask me to get back together within the same week and say she never meant any of it and that its her bpd. I was so confused and i slowly isolated from people because she would say if i talked about the relationship people would hate her and i would tell her they wouldn't but I still felt the pressure to protect her. keep in mind bpd doesn't cause behaviours like hers at all necessarily and its very likely she had commorbidities like narcissistic personality disorder looking back especially since she denies having any issues now and refuses to see a psychiatrist or therapist, she eventually started projecting that I have bpd and i thought i may at that point because of how insane everything made me but ive seen professionals and talked about all of this stuff and they dont seem to think i do. and i research these things a lot and based on my own research i think its less than likely that i do.

Later on it eventually culminated in her hitting me one day much later on in the relationship nearer to the end. after i moved slightly further away a smear campaign was started. she started claiming I was abusive and that i was insane. I had proof otherwise since i always screenshotted abusive situations and confusing times because they made me feel so confused and heartbroken. But the people who harassed me for her openly said they dont care about anything i have because im not trustworthy and must just be making things up. The people who harassed me were already people that hated me mainly with a few of my old friends too. one of the people listened to me explain everything and even said its believable and makes sense before saying they dont care because they were only listening so they could say it doesn't matter and fuck with me anyway because that guy specifically hated me a lot for a long time because i called out his fucked up behaviours a long time ago. sorry i feel like im writing so much right now my mental is fucked right now.

i got stalked and harassed on new accounts for years, someone made an account named after an account only my ex knew about and then dm'd me on it saying they were me and that they know everything about me and just trying to fuck with my head. The guy my ex was into near breaking up with me also made a new account just to reference that she probably cheated on me and to dox me online. Ive still not recovered from everything i get night terrors most days and im scared to get close to people. i have friends but im always worried about being an annoyance or a burden or that they secretly hate me and it makes me scared to talk about things i need help with or just need someone to talk to about. i used to talk to friends about these things. now im so desperate that even though i dont even like ai or think its very good at it I'll talk to ai about these things just to at least talk about things because it drives me insane and i get to the point of self harm when I'm isolated in these thoughts. i cant call hotlines they never help and just make me feel even more fucked and alone.

I've talked to a lot of psychs and they think i have severe cptsd, something i had been suspecting before I talked to any professionals. Ive done a lot of work with reorganizing my thoughts and trying to think healthier but i also have severe adhd and autism which gets in the way of doing therapy work as much as id like because i dont have adhd medication yet despite my diagnosis. I've still tried though and i know things have gotten better but at the same time im still so isolated. I have a friend i care about a lot and i cant even tell them anything i feel or think because all my brain can go to is that I don't matter to them like they matter to me and that i should just isolate and cut everyone off.

a few months ago my pet rabbit died, he was all i had through this all, i had some mice too that passed away, and he was all i had left. He emotionally regulated me a lot and since his death I feel all over the place, i deactivated my discord in fear of not mattering and because my brain is telling me i just need to cut everyone off and die. I know it wont actually solve anything but at the same time everything feels so meaningless i matter so little and i feel so alone i just don't wanna be here anymore i can't take it. All i do is harm those around me by being mentally unwell and im not happy or loved im just better off gone. i haven't felt this in a long time but everything feels so stagnant and I just feel so hopeless it feels like itll never get better and that ill just watch as i get worse and worse.

i self harmed yesterday for the first time in i dont know how long and it felt really relieving. at the end of my abuse i smashed my head into things until it bled and i may have given myself concussions i dont know since i never got anything checked out after but I'm afraid of getting to that point I'm afraid to feel like this and I'm afraid because all my breakdowns do is ultimately push people further away reinforcing the cycle. the more im like this obviously she wouldn't want anything to do with me im just ruining everything and I'm gonna end up all alone and part of me thinks thats better because then i can kill myself but at the same time i know im so scared to and that if i dont ill just be completely alone while i rot.

i dont know what to do anymore i dont even really know why im posting this i guess im getting to a breaking point i just cant handle it anymore i hate feeling this way I hate feeling so alone i want to just feel like im not invisible and like i dont matter it says i need a picture so I attached a picture of my rabbit buster. i wish he was here

The Toronto met uni has a student pro Israel organization that hosted IDF soldiers in a school sanctioned private event. Protestors naturally protested by forcing their way into an event and one person broke a glass door. Here's a video from it all attached to the post.

This was after the Idf soldier already trapped a few students inside with them and after the soldier had enough he grabbed Canadians and dragged them across the floor while their bodies hit against hardwood furniture and threw them through broken glass when those protestors had been entirely peaceful too.

The cops did not charge the IDF soldier Jonathan Karten but found it in them to arrest 5 different protestors after throwing them to the ground in the subway quite awhile later. A completely violent response in defense of a literal war criminal who treated female students like ragdolls and dragged them around before throwing them through broken glass. This is an extremely disturbing scene and seeing this play out while the school supports the soldier is deeply unsettling.

if you want to make any sort of statement toward the school about distaste with the matter global@torontomu.ca seems to be their most clearly documented email address. I have written them an email and you can use my premade email with this mailto link, and you can add anything you'd like or remove anything and sign your name if you'd like. You may need to copy the link itself since lemmy is being a bit weird about it since it has spaces between paragraphs.
