morphballganon, do nintendo w Switch controllers vibrate extremely loudly: defective?

What type of controller? Pro?

I’m sorry, I don’t understand. It’s the normal Nintendo Switch (OLED) and those two controllers that come with it which slot into the sides.

It's hard to really say, when they vibrate, depending on the intensity that the game feeds the controller, the vibration is absolutely audible, it will never be silent, so it is a little hard to say with no audio feedback whether they're louder than they're supposed to, depending on the game.

@NOT_RICK@lemmy.world avatar

Those are called Joycons. I would say they can get pretty loud but I suppose that depends on the game. Have you noticed a difference after starting a new game or did you notice it on the same game you’ve been playing before they got extra loud? Also, is the excessively loud noise coming from one joycon or both?

PlutoniumAcid,

Thank you; I will check and respond again.

Daefsdeda,

Let me just say that I disabled vibration cause when me and my so are chilling it can be quite annoying for how loud it is, especially in some specific games

morphballganon,

Joycons. Interesting, my joycons are pretty quiet, and I have two pairs (four pairs in the family). Are they loud in certain games and not others? Which game(s) have the worst vibrations?

PlutoniumAcid,
@PlutoniumAcid@lemmy.world avatar

Apparently it’s mostly in one game, WRC 10.

I guess it means the hardware is okay and that one game is crap.

bighi,

I have never even heard my joycons vibrating unless they’re vibrating against a solid surface like a table or the floor.

EddyBot, (edited ) do piracy w With PLEX blocking Hetzner Hosting, I'm thinking of Moving to Jellyfin, but I have some questions.

If Jellyfin would do such stupid thing, somebody would fork it to a new project
in fact this did already happened in the past: Jellyfin was forked of Emby after they changed their license

cooopsspace,

Jellyfin is unable to do that because they don’t have centralised auth like Plex does.

Appoxo,
@Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Not like it could be implemented.
But the the community would (as OP said) fork the project.

cooopsspace, (edited )

There’s absolutely zero way that is going to get pulled into the actual Jellyfin project, hence a fork is unnecessary.

It’s unreasonable to take responsibility for apps a user runs on their server.

But when you all of a sudden see a heap of Plex IP addresses hitting your provider with mass media sharing rings you’ve got problems.

Jellyfin however is just serving HTTP/S. Thats it. You can’t ban Nginx or Apache.

Uh zlib and sci hub are both still alive.

Pearlescence,

Sci-Hub stopped adding new articles since its court case and Z-Lib had most of its domains seized by the US. I didn’t say they were dead, but tried to convey that they were attacked and forced to either cease their operations or shrink significantly.

janguv,

Right but zlib is full strength at this point, and libgen remained unaffected. Annas archive gives an extensive coverage of it all.

You can find games like this one in rutracker which require no installation, decompression or dwarfs thing, only the files. Just like what you’d have after installing a repack

EuroNutellaMan,

Semi-related but do you happen to know where I can find the guide to rutracker?

Pssk, (edited )
@Pssk@lemmy.ml avatar

It is not fully private. You can browse without an account but cant use the site’s search. If you don’t want to create an account you can use a search engine like duckduckgo like adding site:rutracker.org to your query

EuroNutellaMan, (edited )

No I mean there was a guide on how to use rutracker or something

EDIT: Turns out it has been deleted, at least the one I found in the past

Meowoem, do games w What games had easy soft locks that prevented you from either progressing or getting a true ending?

Elder Scrolls Daggerfall was surely the peek of this, you get a letter at the start telling you to meet a woman in a bar on a set date - turn up too early and she won’t be there, but if you mess around on sidequests and don’t have enough time to travel there so are late then she’ll leave and the main quest never really happens.

There were a million other ways to lock your ability to progress but I always remember that, I don’t know if it was possible to get back on track but I don’t think so, I probably played a thousand hours before I did a run where I even started the main quest

CorrodedCranium,
@CorrodedCranium@leminal.space avatar

Is there anyway to know that you missed her? Like a letter left behind or an NPC telling you?

Meowoem,

I think it comes up with a little note on the screen telling you that it’s no longer possible to compete the game, you’d get that randomly in a dungeon too because two miles away a bad guy randomly died – belive it out not Todd Howard has got much better since 1996

Pearlescence, (edited )

That’s what I read as well. You would think they would’ve gotten some leeway since it was done during an event comparable to war and they were following the footsteps of other digital libraries. They had a pretty stellar reputation and system in place for nearly a decade already, so I can only assume that they were simply waiting for an opportunity to target them.

@ChojinDSL@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Depending on your client, there may be different directories for complete and incomplete torrents, so you may have to put the downloaded files in the incomplete folder. If your client only checks the incomplete folder when starting a torrent.

yote_zip, do piracy w I am looking into setting up a home mediaserver. Any good guides?
@yote_zip@pawb.social avatar

Hi I accidentally wrote a wall of text:

perfectmediaserver.com can give you some inspiration on system architecture/layout. There’s a lot of right answers here depending on your situation, so you’ll likely want to research the various options and trade-offs.

Some common base architecture layouts that I know of:

Any Linux + no parity: Just throw Debian on a box, put Docker on it, and away we go. No data integrity, and data loss will be permanent, but it’s an option if you set up backups for your important data and assume the rest is expendable. If you want to start setting up parity on raw Linux you’ll probably want to move down to a more dedicated architecture below for less headaches.

OpenMediaVault + SnapRAID + MergerFS + backed by BTRFS disks: my personal choice for ad-hoc/budget setups. Great for having really flexible storage that lets you make use of all HDD space that you have laying around without fuss. You’ll need to sacrifice your largest drive to hold RAID parity and the storage architecture is not especially performant but that’s not a big deal for a media server. OpenMediaVault can run Docker for you on the host without needing to run it in a VM (and you should be using Docker for your software stack).

Unraid: Similar in storage architecture to the OpenMediaVault combo, but it’s not free. I don’t have personal experience with this one but a lot of people like it. IMO this option would only make sense if you want a turn-key system and don’t want to think about anything on the software side. It has turn-key “apps” that are just Docker behind the scenes (to my knowledge).

TrueNAS Scale: This will be running ZFS for storage, but ZFS has a lot of problems with storage flexibility. You need to really know what you’re doing when designing your storage layout, and you probably won’t get full usage out of the HDDs you have laying around. In exchange, ZFS is bulletproof for data integrity and makes full use of your drives’ combined speed. You’ll likely be giving up 50% of your total HDD capacity to run ZFS - either explicitly by running mirrored drives or by running mismatched RAIDZ1/2 (which makes all drives become the size of the smallest disk). I would recommend a mirrored setup for home use due to its flexibility - it gives up more space than RAIDZ but it’s able to be upgraded easier in the future, so you can throw random drives that are on sale into your system when needed. You could write a book on ZFS’s complexities and trade-offs and I’m sure many have. TrueNAS itself is basically just a turn-key appliance to run a ZFS storage server, but the “Scale” version also comes with the ability to install apps via some Kubernetes+Docker thing. It’s still in beta and I hear a lot of people have problems with how the app system is designed, so if you go this route I’d recommend installing Debian/Alpine Linux under TrueNAS Scale in a VM with something like this method, and running normal Docker on that VM. TrueNAS is otherwise very locked down and if your usecase is not supported by them you’ll probably need to bail out to a VM anyway.

Proxmox + TrueNAS + Docker Host: This has all the caveats of ZFS from before. Proxmox is just a virtualization hypervisor that you can put other operating systems on, via VMs and LXCs. The easiest way to use it in a NAS configuration is to install Proxmox on the bare metal, then spin up a TrueNAS Core/Scale VM and pass through your HDDs to that (may require special hardware consideration). You’ll probably want to run a minimal Debian/Alpine Linux VM under Proxmox to hold your Docker stack. Then you can use an NFS/SMB mount to get access to your ZFS storage from your Docker VM. You can also run ZFS raw on Proxmox without the GUI of TrueNAS, but you’ll have to manage it by CLI. Proxmox can be more difficult to understand than the other architectures, but personally I think it’s easier to use once you do. It allows greater flexibility on the software side via snapshotting VMs and building up/tearing down operating systems at-will.

Proxmox + OpenMediaVault + SnapRAID + MergerFS + backed by BTRFS disks: Same as Proxmox+TrueNAS, except instead of TrueNAS you run OpenMediaVault’s storage stack to give yourself flexibility with HDDs. You’ll might also want to move your Docker stack into its own VM instead of running it on OpenMediaVault, but this isn’t required. While this is technically an option, it feels a bit weird. If you want to dive head-first into a robust server setup but don’t want to buy a bunch of new drives, this could work in a pinch.

Personally my two recommended options are the OpenMediaVault stack or the Proxmox+TrueNAS stack, depending on if you want to buy new drives for a clean storage layout. Keep in mind these blurbs are just a crash course on each option and there’s a lot more going on behind the scenes that will also need consideration/planning.

Freeman,

Thank you a lot! I’ll look into it!

blashork, do piracy w Which cracks and repacs works best on linux?
@blashork@hexbear.net avatar

there’s a group called johncena141 who do linux specific repacks. They put the windows game in a dwarfs read only compressed archive, and then have an editable layer on top of it where saves and changes get written. The windows games are put into a wine wrapper and then you can run them while they’re still compressed. It’s pretty cool, but can be a bit finicky. Getting dwarfs installed can be a pain depending on your system. I find their stuff can be very hit or miss, but I like that they exist.

Besides that, ymmv with all the other repacks. Sometimes fitgirl works fine for me, sometimes it fucks up completely. Same goes for dodi. though I’ve found dodi to be a bit more reliable on wine than fitgirl.

That’s my two cents on stuff.
