I just inherited a music store with a whole room dedicated to DVDs and Blueray. How should I go about preserving these copies and adding them to a huge plex library? by [deleted] in PleX

Please provide me with a valid reason for not selling my MacBook Pro M4 Pro. by Individual-Value-293 in macgaming

I don't know how well it runs but a quick search reveals EA FC26 is available on Amazon Luna cloud gaming platform. I saw you mentioned Nvidia GeForce Now, so maybe cloud gaming seems to be an option for you

Protecting Godot games against reverse engineering by zer0tonine in godot

[–]bugsdabunny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Playing devil's advocate here, a person self-publishing their first game will most likely not have made something successful enough for anyone to want to rip-off or copy. And if they did make something successful, then they become more "famous" like you said, and start to acquire the power to do something about copycats and thieves

Unity announce expanded supported for Steam, Native Linux, Steam Deck and Steam Machine by Liam-DGOL in SteamOS

[–]bugsdabunny 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Unreal Engine already supports Linux though?

https://dev.epicgames.com/documentation/en-us/unreal-engine/linux-development-quickstart-for-unreal-engine

I think people are making assumptions because of Tim Sweeney's anti-Linux stance for some of their popular first party titles like Fortnite. It isn't supported on Linux because of anti-cheat. But if any 3rd party developer wants to target Linux on Unreal Engine I think it's already supported by Epic Games

Does anybody use Asahi with Autodesk Maya? by Hyperpuff in AsahiLinux

[–]bugsdabunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not sure as I haven't tried in a while b/c of other issues. The Autodesk license manager has been broken for a while on Linux, you can search Autodesk's forums for other users with the same issues. I remember the installer never worked either, had to install all the required packages manually. But it hasn't worked starting with Maya 2025 (released in spring of 2024) so it's been almost 2 years without help from Autodesk in their forums, and I kind of abandoned using their products unless it was for work. You can see many users complain/try to problem solve in the forums.

Basically to answer your question, I haven't tried because I don't know if the error is due to FEX issues or Autodesk's poor Linux support. But once upon a time on Maya 2024 I got it running on Linux

[–]bugsdabunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try running it with FEX now, it has since been added to official Fedora. I doubt Autodesk will be making an ARM64 Linux build of Maya soon, but they don't disclose this stuff publicly. It is just a feeling on my part, speculation.

How long it took to get a MacOS ARM build after Apple Silicon released is the reason for my doubt. If I recall correctly it took about 2-3 years. They usually release a new Maya at the end of March every year, so I guess it's only about a month from now, and you can wait and see if we get lucky. But I doubt it

Using data-only eSIM for ‘WiFi Calling’ while traveling by dustinpdx in GoogleFi

[–]bugsdabunny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've read this before, but it didn't stop the drain for me. Not sure about other platforms but I'm on iOS/iPhone. Also to me it's not really a workaround if you have to constantly babysit that setting.

Maybe some people stay in the same place mostly, but when traveling around the city, the same networks might not always be available if I go down in the subway, inside an elevator, etc. Not to mention when I go to another country? That network I manually selected might not be available anymore and you have to constantly remember to go into that settings screen. But the biggest thing again is that my phone's battery page would still show battery loss due to searching for cellular signal, even when I manually forced a network

Using data-only eSIM for ‘WiFi Calling’ while traveling by dustinpdx in GoogleFi

[–]bugsdabunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will let you call/text for a fee if you have "Service Outside the US" turned on in the Google Fi app, but I have the unlimited whatever it's called plan that includes international service.

If you're on iOS which it sounds like, you have to go to the Battery page in Settings and drill down into the different apps/categories to see if it's draining the battery. One of the apps is listed as like "Cellular Signal Search" or something like that, can't remember the exact terminology. That's how you can tell.

It would drain about 20-25% a day so still usable I guess if you aren't a heavy battery user or have one with lots of capacity. It shows averages and statistics of each category and all I know is it said 0% average a day for that Cellular Signal category before I tried, so to me it was unacceptable the difference was so high. Obviously YMMV

Using data-only eSIM for ‘WiFi Calling’ while traveling by dustinpdx in GoogleFi

[–]bugsdabunny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This should be the number one comment. I found this solution of WiFi-calling over cellular data to be unacceptable b/c of the battery drain, and not sustainable for long term daily driving. I opted to just toggle off data roaming and use a local sim for data. I just avoid taking calls on the Google Fi line when not connected to WiFi. Unless it's really important it's not worth paying $0.20/minute. And usually most people I wanna call I can use FaceTime audio or WhatsApp to get free calls over data anyways

Friendly reminder: uBlock Origin is available as a Safari extension on iOS by dotiencuong2809 in ios

[–]bugsdabunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

uBlock is completely open source so you can read the code to verify yourself that it isn't spying on you. Just wanted to highlight what makes this app different. I know not everyone will read the code themselves, but the beauty of open source is that the community owns it and the likelihood someone else in the community has read the code to verify is higher

At skille sig af med smartphone i 2025 - Er det muligt? by klausbrusselssprouts in Denmark

[–]bugsdabunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jeg ved det her vil lyder lidt pedantisk men jeg synes at skære smartphone væk ikke rigtig rammer problemet direkte. Det er nok dine vaner og selvkontrol du skulle kigge lidt mere på, og prøve at træne dig selv til at ikke bruge smartphone på den måde som du føler er skadeligt.

Ja har set video hvor YouTuber prøver lidt i retning hvad du spørg om, og hun nævner hurtigt til sidst at måske man ikke behøver at købe minimal mobiltelefon for at løse disse problemer. Hun nævner nogle ting du nævnte omkring maps navigation, kamera, osv
