@ShortN0te @0x0 I mean the real problem here is that MS office is a mess but somehow still standardized, so “enforcing standards” would be as easy as showing MS the middle finger and using libre office. They’d save a lot of money and time, it’s a clear win-win scenario imho

@[email protected] @[email protected] depends on your definition of broken, and to me they absolutely are.

First, for the name, it always felt a bit cringy to me and always prefer to talk about the activity pub over the fediverse. This thread explained why it felt so bad. https://degrowth.social/@yala/113016284424703730

Second, I think the explanation on the asterism proposal site is more than enough, but here goes some extra points I’ve read this days:

• It can be indexed
• It can be shown in a console and virtually any device
• Can also fit any size for print
• Shit’s more accessible and hence more inclusive than any colors can represent. Period.
• Can be modified by your font, for better or worse. You can even color it or put the old logo in it’s place, so every time someone puts a ⁂ you see a :fedi:
• Networks aren’t supposed to be the same, sticked to each other, just connected.
• It can live along the pentagram. It’s a symbol, not a logo.
• It can’t be trademarked, which is good for us.

@Dave well that’s a shame. To be fair, the only time i tried so use it over wifi was on the 2ds, which was pretty slow. It worked only with low resolution, so just a cool experiment, not really practical.

That said yeah if you replace the laptop I’d focus on the best wifi card possible and leave the power to the server. I’m actually planning to switch an old laptop to an orange pi for this reason.

@Dave @deadbeef for the gaming part you don’t even need the second pc connected to the tv. I’ve been trying sunshine and moonlight (a server and client for game streaming) and it’s been running really great in the same network. The client can even run on an old nintendo 2ds, so your laptop should do more than fine to try, that way you’d only have a media and a gaming clients on the laptop, everything else to the server in another room.
I’m currently using a similar setup but with Jellyfin instead of kodi, working great for a few months.
