Note to self: move to finland

Edit: where I live they also introduced a 4 day workweek. You do your 40h in 4 days instead of 5 and now you have an extra day a week ( to recover from all that overtime ).

Hetzner has been solid for me ( and eu based if that is relevant for you ).

Belgium has "streamz'. Which is a combination of foreign and domestic shows.

You'd be surprised how often DDOS can be an inside job.

Worth every goddamn cent I paid for it.

You are correct. I misread ( or my brain farted ) and looked up the wrong one.

Libreoffice their latest blogpost is from the 20th of August 2025. There have been a few releases in the past few months as well.

Openoffice their latest ( Apache Openoffice 4.1.15 ) was released almost 2 years ago ( December 2023 ).

Libreoffice seems like a more recent, better supported tool over Openoffice which hasn't seen any updates since 2023 according to their own website.

I'm on my phone, so I didn't search extensively. But I think that also plays a role in why there's a much larger fanbase for libreoffice rather than Openoffice.

I've no recent experience with either so I can't comment on how well either works.

Edit: I looked up the wrong one. My statement remains correct w.r.t. Openoffice, but they mentioned Onlyoffice which is a different product.

Connections timing out have always been a firewall issue for me.

Client sends packet, firewall drops packet, client waits for a reply that'll never come. Client times out.

I would check firewall logs or temporarily disable it to see if it works without it.

so yeah check the firewall on the server, the client and in between ( if any ). That's what I would do.

I wish there were more banks offering virtual CCs.

If windows is free why are they still selling windows licenses. you might get* a free upgrade between 10/11. But windows is not free.

~~Wait. Doesn't that mean If you slot it in a lvl 9 slot you will animate~~

~~9 + ( 2 additional per level slot over 4 = 10 ) = 19 skeletons?~~

Edit: Never mind. It's 1 skeleton and 12 extra for being level 9. I assumed every level would also increase the number of skellies raised. My bad

And if you are in the "It doesn't work" camp, then you are screwed without serious skill.

This the same for windows. Or Mac. Or your plumbing. Missing something.dll errors and whatnot. Running things in win98 compatibility mode. What's your point?

If you are one of the lucky ones where it works without effort, be grateful and don't go around telling everyone who has problems that it's super easy. Because it's more luck than skill and your experience might not fit the experience that others have.

  • Op asks for experience.
  • I shared my experience
  • You're here criticizing me for sharing experience and that it might not work for him

What exactly is the angle here?

That I'm lucky it all works? Sure. There's no skill involved in pressing the install and play button.

Can I guarentee it works for him? No. Did I claim it would? No.

He asked for experience and I shared mine. I'm not adding a disclaimer to day it's all just luck. Because frankly in my opinion it isn't. There's been stellar work done by devs to get it this smooth. It might not be perfect. But it's far from just "luck".

 

Hello fellow Linux gamers!

I've recently switched to nobara for gaming. I've had no real issues so far and it's all running smoothly! Queue my Xbox controller.

A year or two ago I bought an Xbox wireless control ( 2020 version according to the order ). Now I wanted to use the controller, but it is not being detected. The light keeps blinking. On nobara itself it looks like it mounted the dongle as a USB Stick.

That would explain why the controller isn't connecting.

How would I best go at tackling this? Any tips? I've already ran the following command:

nobara-controller-config

This installed some drivers and required a reboot ( which I did ).

Thanks in advance for any guidance or tips!
