Have you tried recently? We’ve been pretty much at parity for years now. Almost every game that doesn’t run is because the devs are choosing to make it that way.

I think we all know this, but it’s the exact same argument for Facebook and Twitter and LinkedIn. Getting off centralized, corporate, for-profit cloud services should be a priority for anyone who is philosophically aligned with FOSS.

I’ve been enjoying Tauon, it does the things I want

Deluge is another good client – I’m not sure why but its defaults gave me much better download speeds than transmission or qbittorrent

What in the terms is concerning? They still have the bulk of the language in the old data privacy guarantee as well. This seems like they just got a more circumspect legal department who wants to cover their ass.

It’s always been the case that Mozilla could decide to just make Firefox suck ass. Again, I’ll be worried when they actually change the terms to something unacceptable.

Okay mr “I love Linux but clearly have not used it in 15 years”

No thanks

Still Firefox. Every time Mozilla does anything the entire privacy community goes insane. The terms of use they published seem entirely benign, and the only thing anyone can actually point to is the “direction being worrisome”. Well, I’ll get worried when they update the terms to be actually onerous. Everything even possibly annoying can be disabled, and it’s still the only browser engine offering competition against Chrome ruling the web.

It sucks ass, it’s just chrome plus some crypto bullshit.

See my top-level comment; even if they’re ready for the complexity, it doesn’t protect you from a similar mistake!

Last week I accidentally overwrote my configuration.nix file with garbage. If you use NixOS this should fill you with horror. If you don’t, that file contains a description of your entire system – all the packages as well as many settings tweaks to anything from GUI apps to core kernel & systemd options.

I have now learned my lesson and started using git to track my changes. Tbh, I was naively expecting to be able to roll back to a previous config and pull out my configuration file, but that’s not how it works. Happily I had already split out the most difficult to reproduce sections into their own files (mostly networking stuff), so it wasn’t that catastrophic, but it still turned a few minutes of tinkering into a couple hours of forehead-smacking.

The space becomes less and less of an issue the more of your system is in flatpaks, as any shared dependencies won’t be duplicated.

The best way to clean glasses is with your fingers using warm water and dish soap. Don’t use super hot water, it can damage the coatings on some lenses. Start with a rinse to remove any particles, then clean them between your fingers, then a final rinse, shake them off and let them air dry.

Using any type of cloth can cause scratches as you’ve found.

Sure, I don’t think it’s like toxic or anything, but I also understand why Martin viewed the situation as an impasse requiring a decision from on high. Also, from my limited understanding it sounds like the new code was in a sequestered rust-only section of the dma subsystem, so I’m not clear on exactly what new burdens were being placed on the C dma maintainers.

If you read the article, the main issue is not the fact that it’s Rust itself, but that it’s a second language entering the codebase. There’s definitely some validity to the argument.

My personal view is that any C developer who doesn’t want to learn Rust is going to kick themselves once they do.

To be fair, I’m not sure how “I will do everything in my power to oppose this” is the anti-Rust side “work[ing] towards some resolution”…

If your wondering isn’t critical to the thought I would simplify to “the monkey who might be able to see my ears” or “can possibly see my ears”. Otherwise AbouBenAdhem has the best option, though I might also suggest “The monkey whose ability to see my ears I’m wondering about”; splitting the prepositional phrase is more strictly proper but I think it reads a little better like this.

It still says “audio capture might not be available” for me. Still on vesktop regardless because of various other improvements and features.

There is SwayFX btw, just sway with some extra eye candy. Nothing super fancy though.
