My favorite is “I lived through the Cold War”, as though being a veteran of propaganda saturation makes them an authority.

So what? Most books sit on shelves unread until they are recycled by Half Priced Books. Might as well use them until they fall apart instead of display them to look smart.

In my personal opinion, those folks need to lighten up. We’re talking about a completely fictional realm where there is plenty of fantasy diversity expressed in other ways, written by a British man who was born in 1892. Enjoy it or don’t, but there really isn’t much foundation to assume that Tolkien was trying to be racist with his literary choices.

From the Wikipedia article on Tolkien and race:

In his personal life, he was anti-racist both in peacetime and during the two World Wars.

Sure, we can throw in some black characters in new productions of his work, but judging the man by modern standards is just looking for outrage.

They ignored a load of other really massive crimes from Trump’s first administration—why would they have gone after him for this one?

This is just a glory hole with extra steps.

This is not very well thought out. People survive accidents all the time, far more than they die from them. It is confirmation bias that makes you feel like it is easy to die from one because people only focus on the bad ones. Normal injuries and close calls fly under the radar.

We aren’t really cool with that though, people tend to write a longer personal note inside those cards.

Sophie Sperlich was a well-known artist in Munich, her home town. Although not much information is available about her, she was a popular artist painting both dogs and cats. Her paintings are in the same style as those of Julius Adam and Henriette Ronner-Knip. Many of her works were used as postcard illustrations.

I am having issues passing through my new GPU to my Windows 11 VM. I previously had another AMD GPU hooked up to this same VM without issue. The new 9070 GPU will display the Proxmox terminal just fine, so I'm relatively sure there is no defect with the device.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X
GPU: AMD RX 9070 XT
MB: NZXT N7 B550
PWR: 850 Watt

IOMMU: Enabled
Above 4G Decoding: Enabled
Re-Size Bar Support: Enabled

When I try to start the VM, I get this error:

error writing '1' to '/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:08:00.0/reset': Inappropriate ioctl for device

VM.conf: I downloaded and added the ROM to the VM configuration file.

At this point I feel totally lost in the weeds, and would greatly appreciate any help that could point me in the right direction to fix this. Thanks!

UPDATE: the error message changed somewhere between updating the BIOS and removing the rom entry from the vm.conf.

I’m trying to set up a streaming server on a VPS. I’m using OBS Studio and MistServer in a Debian docker container with noVNC access to control it.

MistServer is supposed to be able to detect a stream on the local network and then create a custom RTMP key so that it can be passed to OBS studio and then streamed to multiple platforms simultaneously.

I was thinking that I could use Tailscale to create a virtual network, and that should connect the camera to MistServer. If I do that, could I just use the Tailscale IP as the RTMP IP address and then have it treat the camera as if it is on a local network?

Essentially:

Camera wired to iPad > Tailscale > MistServer > OBS Studio > Multiple Streaming Platforms

Is there some better way to do this that I’m totally missing?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Edit: to clarify, I’m talking about a livestream of my own live content that I create, not a Plex stream of media or anything.

Saint Jerome as the Representation of Melancholy - Farrukh Beg (1615)

Farrukh Beg (Persian: فرخ بیگ; c. 1547 – after 1615), also known as Farrukh Husayn, was a Persian miniature painter, who spent a bulk of his career in Safavid Iran and Mughal India, praised by Mughal Emperor Jahangir as "unrivaled in the age."

Hello Lemmy!

I have moved to a walkable area and no longer need to have my car keys on me all the time. My landlord has put in a crappy 4 digit combination style door lock, but said I could change it.

What is the best kind of keyless door lock that I can use instead? Ideally one with decent enough security to be as good or better than a key?

Thanks for your input!
