Been on Lemmy for almost 2 years, that instance and the people who joined it always felt “off” to me, I’m glad I recently set up a Lemmy instance of my own because that de-federate button will likely come in handy shortly.

196 has a very clear stance on tankies and other authoritarians.
but we’re not willing to allow somebody we so fundamentally disagree with to moderate our community.
I don’t know about you, but /c/[email protected] might have an authoritarian problem.
Bought an Asus TUF laptop back in 2020? Maybe 2021, had a Ryzen 3750H and a 1660ti, at first it was great and was an improvement from my previous laptop but unfortunately barely lasted a year before the fan bearings started to give out and made terrible sounds, even after replacing the fans they barely lasted a month before going back to the horrid noises.
The thing struggles to keep itself cool. Doesn’t matter if it’s running Debian or Windows it was horrible to do literally anything without getting frustrated.
Eventually upgraded and gave it to a buddy who didn’t have a computer, thing still sucks as a daily driver and I definitely wouldn’t trust it in a server environment. The sounds of those fans still haunt me to this day.
Why is this a long code block? Quoting would’ve likely fit the markdown more suitably.
Wow, remember seeing these guys on Tosh.0 nearly 5ish years ago, surprised the movement is still going.


I smell the “all Linux users are hackers” argument approaching:


What distro are you using? There are 3 big distro’s you need to keep in mind for, Debian, Arch and Fedora, every other distro typically bases themselves off of one of these big distro’s.
Documentation is your friend, if you’re using a Debian based distros the stress ng repository linked above has this in their documentation -
Debian packages for Ubuntu
Recent versions of stress-ng are available in the Ubuntu stress-ng ppa for various Ubuntu releases:
(run the commands below to install the package)
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:colin-king/stress-ng
sudo apt update
sudo apt install stress-ng
Now that is installed, they have an examples section.
Examples
Run 8 CPU stressors for 60 seconds:
stress-ng --cpu 8 --timeout 60
stress-ng: info: [184401] setting to a 1 min run per stressor
stress-ng: info: [184401] dispatching hogs: 8 cpu
stress-ng: info: [184401] skipped: 0
stress-ng: info: [184401] passed: 8: cpu (8)
stress-ng: info: [184401] failed: 0
stress-ng: info: [184401] metrics untrustworthy: 0
stress-ng: info: [184401] successful run completed in 1 min
Couple of definitions and examples that will help you along the way.


Ubuntu is based off of Debian, just use Debian instead.
Matrix is nice but it’s clear they’re appeasing more towards shareholders than the community, self-hosting via Docker Compose was a PIA as there are 4-5 services that need to talk to one another.
For the Xbox 360 apparently.
