Mostly a backup account for now, other @Deebsters are available.

  • Average thermodynamics enjoyer

  • Purrmodynamics

  • Russia has network of 200 camps for ‘brainwashing’ Ukrainian children – report

    Jump

  • To show that the word brainwashing comes from an article source, not their own editorialising.

  • In ex ha ha le le

    Jump

  • I thought that's where we were! Did we lose it in the lemm.ee shutdown?

  • Great band

    Jump

  • And Christopher Lee released four metal albums, plus some singles and EPs, including metal versions of Christmas songs.

  • My Pixel 10 warned me 8 times in 30-minutes that there was a rogue connection made. Deeply concerning

    Jump

  • If you switch off 2G, bear in mind that it might be your only option to send emergency calls when otherwise out of signal. Remembering how to switch it back on (or even that you'd switched it off) might not be feasible when you need it!

    edit: phone typos

  • Niri a scrollable-tiling Wayland compositor

    Jump

  • Niri does have named workspaces so you can absolutely switch to fixed workspaces like you describe.

    I have fixed workspaces but then temporarily add extra workspaces for side tasks - these are relative to the named ones but don't stop you jumping to your named workspaces (assuming you've got your shortcut keys set up to match).

  • Proposals for commercial planes to operate with one pilot shelved after critical EU report

    Jump

  • Thank god for that; even with two pilots there's plenty of crashes blamed on software (looking at you, Boeing).

  • xkcd #3135: Sea Level

    Jump

  • the Gulf Coast is strange, has diurnal tides (twice a day)

    Diurnal tides are once a day (semidiurnal is twice a day). By the Gulf Coast, I guess you must mean the Gulf of Mexico. I'm living on the other side of the world in the other diurnal region, so I assume our tides are synchronised!

  • Call me...

    Jump

  • That's what I think of when I hear The name Daddy Longlegs. Wikipedia tells me that they're called "Jenny long legs" in Scotland and Pilib an Gheataire ("Skinny Philip") in Irish.

  • Dedicated music server or all-in-one media server?

    Jump

  • I think that the little extra work to have separate services is a small price to pay to have the kind of top notch user experience that you can only get with a dedicated tool.

    Besides, it's cool to have a load of different services. Most self-hosters seem to be constantly on the lookout for the next thing to install.

  • Anyone else guilty of this?

    Jump

  • A great read, thanks. I think you have posted this as a full post to this sub (perhaps repost it on a quiet day).

  • Steam data reveals PC gamers shifting from Windows to Linux

    Jump

  • I think we'll see a bump in users centred around October, since that is when MS had announced support for Windows 10 ended. They have recently announced that you can (maybe) get into the Extended Security Updates program for a year for free, but that's perhaps too little too late.

  • Steam data reveals PC gamers shifting from Windows to Linux

    Jump

  • My hardware's new enough that my WiFi card doesn't work on Windows 10 (and won't, only Win11), but it works on recent-ish Linux kernels. Not contradicting you, but it was interesting to see.

  • Steam data reveals PC gamers shifting from Windows to Linux

    Jump

  • I'm currently configuring my new linux dev/gaming machine. Thanks for giving me the push I needed, Microsoft!

  • Ukraine war briefing: ‘Up to Zelenskyy’ to reach ceasefire with Russia, says Trump after Putin summit

    Jump

  • So Trump failed. No surprise there, but at least he didn't agree something with Putin that Zelenskyy wouldn't agree to (as far as we know, anyway).

  • Decrease in sales of USA goods in Swedish liquor monopoly (Swedish article)

    Jump

  • So the recent hate towards Pedro Pascal is JK and her loyalists making shit up because he spoke out that she's an awful person?

    Jump

  • I think you have me confused with a different poster. (I just checked and I've seen him in The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, Gladiator II and Mandalorian)

  • So the recent hate towards Pedro Pascal is JK and her loyalists making shit up because he spoke out that she's an awful person?

    Jump

  • A decade is 10 years, he only really arrived on the scene 5 years ago, where’s the other 15 years coming from?

    Your maths is as bad as mine - a decade and a half is 15 years, so I added 10 not 15.

  • So the recent hate towards Pedro Pascal is JK and her loyalists making shit up because he spoke out that she's an awful person?

    Jump

  • Oops, no idea where that came from, unless the 1500 films bit confused my subconscious.
