Ok so aparently 7z compression is the culprit. If I extract the file. There is a setup-stub.exe file that shows clear in there.

Firefox trojan false positive (?) in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

I have read on the firefox forum that this particular anti-malware engine flags these like that. I just want to know to be sure. Is there somewhere where I can check if it was officially generated by firefox (other than the signature which seems legit)

I can reliably play wii on an x230. I am pretty sure you can go ahead and play unless it is ps2 or xbox og or anything newer (wii/gamecube excluded)

Safe to Install New Dual Boot? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 33 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

It should be safe, although for the future, I'd recommend installing the os to a completely separate drive and changing boot device by uefi.

I don't know what to pick. in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago (4 children)

I am using it for gaming on windows. I will dual boot with a different os on seperate drives. For linux, i want something stable that won't crash on wayland.

I don't know what to pick. (lemmy.one)
 

Hey this maybe a stupid question. I am considering on buying a GPU. I am in conflict between nvidia and AMD. I know AMD works better on linux in general but I am curious to follow the NVIDIA advancements as they go with the new open source kernel modules and stuff... I don't know if it is worth it to pick team green over team red. Also typically performance will be better with NVIDIA on compute and stuff like that.

P.S.

Yes, this is related to the previous post I made here.

Do I need to disable secure boot to install the nvidia drivers? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

I used to do this while using windows 10 and arch on my laptop. Didnt have any issues. It is just if windows 11 might have an issue. Afaik from the above, my guess is that it just disables the checks whilst disabling secure boot.

Hello, basically the title. It is one of the newer cards and it is fedora 40 the distro.

Hello all, basically the title... I just want to be sure so that there are no issues. It is one of the newer ones that have the kernel modules open source.

Linux compatible printer. (lemmy.one)
 

Hello all, I am considering on getting a 3D printer. I want to print some stuff for a project. I am relatively new to this. I need the slicer software to be compatible (preferably open source) with linux since that's what I am using. I have only found the stuff from Prusa to be compatible but they are expensive. I have heard of ender 3 but it is the only os printer by creality and saw the repo is 3yo without updates.

Can I get some suggestions?

Suggestions for filesystem. (lemmy.one)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Hello all,

I have recently bought an external 4tb drive for backups and having an image of another 2tb drive (in case it fails). The drives are used for cold storage (backups). I would like a prefference on the filesystem i should format it. From the factory, it comes with ntfs and that is ok but i wonder if it will be better with something like ext4. Being readable directly from windows won't be necessary (although useful) since i could just temporarily turn on ssh on the linux machine (or a local vm) and start copying.

Edit: the reason for this post is also to address an issue i had while backing up to an ntfs drive on linux. I had filesystem corruptions (thankfully fixed by chkdsk on a windows machine) and I would like to avoid that in the future.

Edit2: ok I have decided I will go with ext4. Now I am making the image of the first 2tb drive. Wish me luck!

Mouse Suggestions (lemmy.one)
 

Hello all! I am looking for suggestions for a new mouse since what I have now is very old and the usb cable is falling apart, messing with the connection and also the mouse3 button is broken. I want it to be durable and at a budget of 20-35€. Do you have any suggestions?

Anyone feels like almost all modern online games are boring? (lemmy.one)
 

I don't feel compeled to play any online game at the moment except if a friend asks me to play with them. Even then, the only part where I am having fun is when some weird shenanigens happen which doesn't happen at all given how sanetized and "ballanced" games are. I just want to see a funny ragdoll fly off one side of the map, or get an op weapon and listen to trash talk by the enemy team as I obliterate them (or the opposite). I want to mess around with other players and try dumb strats with my pals. Not every modern game is that way but they tend to get fewer and fewer as time comes...

Can I play NTSC games on a PAL n64 with a flashcart? (lemmy.one)
 

Question is in the title. I want to know the complications, if any. I am interested in running rom hacks and most of them are based on patching the NTSC version of the game...

My little brother came up with this meme. A little outdated but it was a chance to show him how to make stuff like that!
