Just backed the queer TLD .meow. Seems like a good project.

Running benchmarks on a cheap ass SD card I bought from Aliexpress. It didn't want to run at all at work, but that might have been the cheap ass microSD to SD converter it came with. After the benchmarks from Disks, I'll run f3 (Fight Fake Flash) to make sure it's the size it says it is.

I'll definitely leave a bad review if it's fake tho'.

Just took a quick test run of #Servo on my #LinuxMint machine. They're definitely working on functionality before looks, but the few sites I tried ran well-ish. Tech.LGBT is fine as long as you never like, boost, or comment.

That said, it did like several games, (so, #Proton,) have done to me. Hard froze. I had to hold the power button down to turn it off and restart it.

So the potato is still rather raw. But I can see the baked potato within.

...Now I want a baked potato.

Tried playing #PacMan256 on my Linux machine and it crashed into fallback mode. That's pretty rough.

So, the first game that runs kinda hard that I got to run on my Linux machine with no issues. Well, a tiny-ass launcher, but otherwise, no issues. Looks good too.

#Linux #LinuxMint #TourmaLinux #Warframe #Dante #Tennobaum #BiancaBeauchamp

A highly modified Linux Mint desktop. The icons and panels all look very cyberpunk e. I absolutely no way clashing, (i.e. incredibly clashing,) the background is a white and red Christmas scene with a woman in white faux fur fringed red latex dress and opera gloves posing. Her hand is laying on top of her chest, drawing the eye to her prominent cleavage. It doesn't need the help.

However, her face is obscured by the Warframe Launcher. It's weirdly tiny and quite frankly hard to read. The image was taken to show how tiny it is.

This isn't a problem with just Warframe. Most launchers are fucking tiny for some reason.

Sadly, no latex or cleave in this one. It's a screenshot of Warframe. The frame in screen is Dante, He's supposed to look kinda like a shiny metal monk or friar as is unique trait is a book that can shoot bullets and catalog things for free. Dante is my go to even though he doesn't have tits at all.

The ship around him is a teal color and the lighting is kinda dim, (unique to PC?) There are some white and gold alien looking tchotchkes shoved into corners, and also some snow on the ground and tinsel and Christmas lighting hung above.

The game looks really good for one 12 years old. I don't know if it's better on my PC or my PS5.

I "like" how after I make Teams quit, Teams automatically boots. Nothing like closing a program I don't use twice.

Working on my website (https://tourma.great-site.net) has resulted in me removing two suggested search engines and adding 1.5.

I removed Mullvad Leta as they are discontinuing the service. Waterfox Search was removed as >500 searches cost $15/month. I'm not recommending Kagi because it's paid, I'm not recommending Waterfox.

I did add Lycos as it's so old it doesn't have any AI whatnot or other modern enshitification. And I added noai.duckduckgo.com because of the no AI. Also adding Onion links where applicable.

So...yeah.

So, I let my annual plan with #ProtonMail lapse because of their CEO's statments around the US election, and their seeming pivot to crypto crap. It eneded on the 16th. I got an email, (that I just saw today,) that they were going to delete all of the data over what a free plan has by the 17th if I didn't do it myself/paid for a plan with enough data.

That's pretty shitty giving 14 hours (I got the email at 10AM.)

Makes me even more okay with having switched to #Tuta.

Now I just need a website address and maybe a cloud storage.

This is your periodic reminder that Linux Mint, (and probably other distros,) allow you to change the opacity of a window. I don't remember if its a default or if I had to change a setting, but scrolling on the title bar will make the window more or less clear.

It can be used for whatever, but I use it so I can make spirals or other hypnotic imagery visible no matter what window is focused.

Useful, if distracting.

This PC has a series of that Sailor Moon image redraw meme from 2020 as the desktop background set on shuffle.

On top of that is this site: https://zebra-north.com/hexcorp/hypnologo/
Shared by @hexlatex over on Bluesky. It is set to full screen and is mostly opaque, but with enough translucency to show off the background beneath.

On top of that is Discord more translucent to show what it looks like to have a window on top, but not fully obscuring.

I enjoy it.

#Hypnosis #HypnoSpiral #HypnoKink #Spiral #HexCorp #SailorMoon #LinuxMint #Linux #TourmaLinux #TourmaObeys

the image is largely described in the post.

on the Discord window is an image of Clover from Totally Spies being hypnotized.

The spiral isn't animated here because this is a screenshot. on it is a spiral, with "hex corp" written on the bottom and "drone is drone" scrolling in a marquee.

beneath that is a drawing of sailor moon looking over her shoulder at the camera.

An aside, if you're reading this with a text reader, I am not surd, but that might still work even with the visibility all the way down? This might be a fun way to hypnotize those sighted around you.

big honking spiral on your screen that doesn't affect you.

A question for my website: https://tourma.great-site.net/Links.html?i=3

I've been thinking about subdividing "Cool Links" into more categories. Would more on the same page be better, or more links at the top and bottom?

Or just leave it a hodgepodge?

Thanks!

Hey all.

I'm shifting from using indivitual #PortableApps to using the #PortableApp app. I'd like to move #Calibre to that way, but the Import/Export doesn't work with portable apps. Is there a way to get the PA app to see the old install?

Thanks

Trying out Bazzite, (KDE flavored,) in a VM. It's definitely a Linux sub-distribution.

Didn't get very far because the amount of hdd space I afforded it wasn't enough to install my test game.

Guess I should back up.

I was trying to play a Wallace and Gromit game I have through Amazon on Linux Mint and Heroic player and it crashes constantly. A friend suggested Bazzite. Not willing to commit to a full reinstall or dual boot, I'm VMing it.

Some...thing Bazzite does with steam won't work on my GPU, too old I think. Not sure if it's the KDE or the fedora, but programs are just different enough to be annoying.

I should also try to play the game through Lutris on Mint, see if that works.

I should also check out the Bazzite community. See how heavily populated by Linux bros (derogatory) it is. I don't think there is any distro with 0.

Hey, got a Blobun question. Has anyone tried it with steam proton? I've got a Linux rig and had enough games just crash that I'm asking before I put money into the sale.

Or if it is on some other distro place that is better for the developer and still works with Proton.

Hi all, this is a continuation of my question on an Android web browser that can limit the amount of data used.
https://tech.lgbt/@Tourma/115214558567911008

Another question I have is if there is an app out there that can monitor daily data usage by app? Preferably can tell the difference between data and wifi. My phone has one, but it's by the month. I want to see day to day what's going on if possible. Again, FOSS preferred, but I'll take not ad ridden if that's what exists.

Also, is there a way to make a button that will take me right to the Data screen where the turn wifi off is? That'd be more helpful than airplane mode.

At the moment I'm using #Ironfox with heavy uBlock limiters on. Not sure how effective it is.

I did learn yesterday that Mastodon requires Javascript to run.

lite.duckduckgo.com is a super minimalist version of DDG that I think also nixes their AI junk.

Froths at the mouth

WHY does Windows 11 allow you to enlarge the font, but not resize the save dialog boxes, nor allow you to resize them??? Scrolling to save in the save as box is straight up dumb.

#Windows11 #TourmaLinux

Hey all, Windows 11 question.

Is there a good weather widget that is free, minimally invasive, (telemetry, etc.) preferably FOSS, and can show multiple cities as a bonus?

I'm having to use Win11 for work, so I might as well make the most of it. Also the requirement of "free." I'm not spending money on my work PC. I have the local weather with the installed by default MSN weather, but I like to see how it is where my friends live too.

Found a #Linux program I like. It's called #geeqie
https://www.geeqie.org/

It does a variety of things to images. What I've been using it for it to find duplicate/similar images. It's not as good as #Visipics (https://visipics.info) as each has to be deleted seperatly, but it's the best I've found so far.

First I tried to run Visipics with Proton. It works, but it still shows a Windows file system, which isn't helping.

#TourmaLinux

Hey all, #Linux question.

Is there a (GUI) way to adjust the size of the title bar and it's buttons? Like, where the close, maximize, etc.? That shit's too tiny.

Running Linux Mint if that helps.

#LinuxMint #TechHelp #AskFedi #TourmaLinux

Well my MSI has started working again without doing anything?

I mean, I'm not upset, just confused. it's also really slow installing things. And very slow to boot.

We'll see if it boots again tomorrow.

Got a nice visual setup though.

A desktop. A Linux Mint panel (taskbar in windows) is a the bottom. It's red and shaded. The wallpaper is of a chubby woman with long brown hair sitting at a table in a Japanese room. There is food littler everywhere and her belly button is showing. I generally say she looks like me and said so long before my egg cracked.

Hey all,

I just got a Cannon EOS 2000D/Canon EOS Rebel T7 DSLR for my birthday. It advertised Canon Connect to tirelessly send pictures to my phone. That's neat! But I don't want to give data to Canon if I don't have to.

Is there a 3rd party app for doing this that doesn't contact Canon? Preferably FOSS. Can be Android or Debian. I can try and get a Windows one to work through Proton too.

Thanks!
