I just tried to set up Chiaki on mxlinux and ran into issues rebinding the controls to my dual sense. I am running the appimage or the most recent Chiaki and was able to connect to my PS5. When trying to rebind the controls from KB it was not recognizing any inputs from my controller. I made sure I had libsdl up to date and checked a few games on steam and the controller seems to be working there. I found a workaround using a program to bind your controller buttons to key input, but that seems like a bad way to go about it limiting the sticks and triggers to only on/off.

Would it be easier to just use wine or lutris to run the standard PS remote program?

I'm looking to host my own website and mess around with some services but my current home server is already pushed to the max. Planning on getting some thin clients for proxmox when I have some more money, but for now I wanted to mess around on Oracles free tier to test some stuff. I heard they will randomly delete accounts / free cloud vps and was wondering if there was a way to mitigate this. Some post I've seen seems to be tied to not having a CC on file with them so after 30 days or so when it "charges" your account and there is no payment option, the vps will get deleted. Does anyone have experience dealing with this? I wouldn't mind adding a card to the account as long as I won't wake up to a huge bill one day because I went over the limit.

Hey, looking into investing into a pair or two of shoes for work. I'm in IT now but worked warehouse and restaurant jobs before this and shoes were by far the biggest qol purchase I made. My current job is pretty relaxed on "business attire" but I want some sneakers and slip ones that look professional while being comfy and will last awhile. All my past work shoes/boots have been Red Wings and that's the standard im looking at.

Hey, I was thinking about getting a VPS and hosting my own single user Lemmy instance. I am trying to think of other things to host. I already have some old hardware running unRAID with Plex, the *arrs, Kavita and home assistant. This is pushing my hardware to the limit but I still want to mess around with some self hosted things. Is there anything you would rather host on a rented server as opposed to a server sitting at your home?

I've been hearing about Animal Man for the last few years, but never got around to reading it or really much of Morrison's work. I already knew the ending before I started, but it didn't take away from the experience at all (or maybe it did, but I was still floored by it). Even the issues that didn't involve metafiction were just great superhero stories. I think the first 4 issues alone would still be remembered if Morrison didn't get to continue the series afterwards.

Now I am looking forward to reading their run on Doom Patrol and dig deeper into their works. Maybe I'll check out Alan Moore's Swamp Thing as well.
