I think that also causes issues for roaming profiles and folder redirection. If roaming is turned on then everything in the %appdata%\roaming folder is synced to a server. %AppData%\Local is not. So if your app is using %AppData%\Roaming for temporary data then you are causing a whole bunch on unnecessary IO. Same for using Documents since that if often synced.
Can you run a live CD on the machine? You mentioned Memtest but I’m wondering if an Ubuntu one would work.
Steam hardware survey but that will skew towards gamers. That said, it would be a good indicator on how compatible Wayland is.
Many instances purged their images after the lemmyremovedpost incident. Perhaps that’s what you’re seeing.
Wait… so the author displayed in “by <author>” is the supposed author of the software, not the one that put it on the store? That’s insane! Also sounds like you’d be open to massive liability since the reputation of the software author will be damaged if somebody publishes malware under their name.
It should be:
Seconding the RAM issue possibility. If you can, shut down the host and run a memory test over a few days to see if it trips. Memory tests can take days to trip in some circumstances, in others, it’s immediate.
Truly, the year of the Linux desktop!
Ah my bad. Memmy didn’t display the code block in your OP or this post. I see it on the web version.
That error might be less about needing X11 and more about wanting D-Bus. Since D-Bus isn’t running, it’s trying to start it by itself using X11, which also doesn’t work.
Does the error actually make Lemmy quit out?
FWIW I have a sanitised copy of my Lemmy k8s config on Gitlab that might help: https://gitlab.com/conorab/k8s-lemmy
What’s the error you’re seeing?

If your domain will NEVER send e-mail out, you only really need and SPF record to tell other servers to drop e-mail FROM your domain. Even that’s somewhat optional. If you ever plan on sending ANY outbound (you should at very least for the occasional ticket) then do DKIM, DMARC and SPF. The more of these you do, the less likely e-mails FROM your domain are to be flagged as spam.
Other comments have hit this, but one reason is simply to be an extra layer. You won’t always know what software is listening for connections. There are obvious ones like web servers, but less obvious ones like Skype. By rejecting all incoming traffic by default and only allowing things explicitly, you avoid the scenario where you leave something listening by accident.
Another option may be to use Windows Server 2022 Eval. You may run in to problems with software refusing to run on a server though. The initial eval lasts 180 days, but you can run a command to extend that 5 times (don’t quote me on the exact number) which will give you an updated system for years to come.
It is a checkbox in Rufus. Ventoy will also do this for you.
Can’t even get the ISO anymore. 😭
Sounds like you just volunteered to post Linux news and related content!
Yep my bad! I mis-remembered .local/share/steam as . cache/share/steam. :)
Ah I was getting it confused. At one point Steam stored everything in ~/.local/share/steam and symlinked ~/.steam to it. Doesn’t appear to be the case on Ubuntu 22.04, though I used to use Debian and grab the .deb from Valve’s website. My bad! :)
The OOM killer is particularly bad with ZFS since the kernel doesn’t by default (at least on Ubuntu 22.04 and Debian 12 where I use it) see the ZFS as cache and so thinks its out of memory when really ZFS just needs to free up some of its cache, which happens after the OOM killer has already killed my most important VM. So I’m left running swap to avoid the OOM killer going around causing chaos.
