It works fine on my 7800XT.

They're just confusing 'This isn't working for me' with 'This isn't working for Linux'

Oh great more mens rea-less laws.

Nothing like police showing up for reasons that you don't understand and charging you for crimes that you were not even aware that you were committing.

I forget which page this was on the in book of Democracy, but I'm pretty sure it was towards the end.

Pipewire can use vsts natively.

I use an RNN noise plugin for background noise removal, it's just a pipewire device that you can connect other sources through (using graphical wireplumber interfaces) or hard code specific inputs/outputs in the config.

It's probably a lot easier to use them in an application, but if you only need a few then this is a way to handle it without needing additional software.

That was 4 years ago, the last one is practically an adult, he needs a new one.

This.

Even the original argument, that patents exists to reward inventors with a period of time where they have the sole ability to sell their product, is gone. Now patents are simply owned by the company or university and rarely the inventor or scientist, they're allowed to be renewed over and over so that they are effectively eternal.

It's a shit system designed to encourage rent seeking behaviors without the risk and cost of having to invent new things.

Nobody that understands that is going on there is going to use a website to compress a file, .... right?

The topic of the thread is about users migrating away from Discord due to privacy concerns over their ID requirements. If this doesn't apply to you, what is your purpose commenting? To tell us all that the thing in the OP isn't actually happening?

Your position is that:

  • this can't happen,
  • people can't leave discord because people are on discord,
  • it's impossible to learn 3 applications,

Therefore nobody would replace Discord with Teamspeak and also use some other chat program (that's 2 programs! which is nearly as impossible as learning 3 programs!).

You're posting this opinion in a thread about users migrating to TeamSpeak and calling me the idiot?

That's certainly an opinion.

Your a fucking delusional idiot.

'Your' is the possessive form of you.

You're is the word you're looking for, as it is a contraction of 'you are' as in 'you are an idiot'.

You found the right workaround.

The Arch Wiki calls this "Loop routing," where NetworkManager attempts to route traffic to the WireGuard peer's endpoint through the tunnel itself, creating a routing loop. This occurs because the endpoint IP gets matched by the AllowedIPs ranges, causing the kernel to send handshakes over the tunnel interface instead of the physical interface. Excluding the peer endpoint from AllowedIPs is the standard fix.

Here's the ArchWiki link (for future readers mostly, you already got it :P): https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/WireGuard#Loop_routing

I wish these guys luck.

I like the idea of a smartwatch, but I'm not accepting the Faustian bargain required to wear them. I can see my heart rate as long as Google can see my hearrate? No thanks, pass.

Kind of, they give everyone a free 1 server 32 slot license.

That isn't guaranteed to be there forever and they could decide in the future that you need to buy that license.

However, if you install a Mumble server then it can't be taken away from you. The hosting process is largely the same from an administrative perspective so I'd prefer the 'free forever' to the 'free, limit 32, while supplies last' license-wise.

Hey guys, stop moving on to the next commercial service who will do the exact same thing once they get up to critical mass.

Yes, commercial services are easier to setup. The cost you pay is all of your privacy and your loss of control over the service that you're building your communities on.

Stop making this same mistake OVER and OVER and OVER.

Take the time to find the IT workers or tech nerds in your community, take donations to rent server space and administer it yourself. Moving from Discord to Teamspeak isn't an improvement, you're just selecting the next group of people who will sell you out the moment that it becomes profitable.

Use Free and Open Source solutions, that your community hosts themselves. You have Mumble (https://www.mumble.info/) for voice, XMPP (https://xmpp.org/software/?category=servers) for text chat, Discourse (https://github.com/discourse/discourse) for forums, or even setup a Lemmy instance.

None of these things are difficult to use and the administrative side of things is simple (most are simply pre-made and hardened Docker containers). Even if you don't want to deal with that yourself, there are managed hosts available for all of these pieces of software. If you don't want to administer a Mumble server you can just rent one for less than the cost of a single Discord subscription. There are similar managed hosts for all of the other software.

Every game that I've ever played as part of a large community has had forum software and voice chat that we've hosted ourselves. Discord killed all of that because they offered the same service for free and made it easier.

Well, it wasn't free, they've been steadily enshittfying and profiting off of the users. The prices keep increasing and they're depending on the Network Effect ("I can't leave because everyone uses it!") to keep you trapped on their services.
