It’s like standing in the middle of a bridge, the Levenshtein distance is the same no matter which way you look

Hey! I’m Bob Ross, and I would like to welcome you to the joy of not being sold anything

You can create ad-hoc wireless networks in desktop mode, which should enable you to achieve that. Then, if your emulator supports netplay, with the two SDs connected to each other, you should be able to play by connecting to localhost

That’s in theory, in practice, we tried with a friend once, and his SD would just not connect to the ad-hoc network I had setup on mine

Sable always had a tendency to make the Deck heat up like crazy and burn through battery in no time, but otherwise it’s a great game to play in bed 😁

My pick has to be The Linux Experiment, especially his Open Source News Podcast that I listen to every week !

I used YunoHost to set it up.

My first idea was to have the instance locked behind the YunoHost auth, since Pixelfed supports LDAP.

But I could not manage to make the LDAP work, so I went instead with a public instance that has ActivityPub disabled and all posts set to “Followers Only”.

People could also set each of their accounts to “Private”, but the follow requests were not working when I first set up the instance.

Been running my own instance for a couple months now, just for me and my friends, so that they would stop sharing private pictures on platforms that would process/sell the data. But, as always when it comes to new, privacy-respecting tools, I’m having the hardest time making them move to the platform, despite the fact that the Pixelfed instance itself has been running smoothly.

Money can’t buy happiness; but at least you can live miserably in comfort
