  • Why just play on Linux, when you can also play on another Linux

    Jump

  • This is how I feel every time I use Docker.

  • It just keeps getting worse - Firefox to "evolve into a modern AI browser"

    Jump

  • I’m always confused why the energy isn’t just put on pressuring Firefox publicly rather than just sitting in comments being negative and suggesting forks that critically depend on Firefox and can no way continue development without upstream.

  • LG TV users baffled by unremovable Microsoft Copilot installation — surprise forced update shows app pinned to the home screen

    Jump

  • I’m glad my LG TV hasn’t been connected to WiFi for years. Great display, shit software. Thankfully nothing a minipc can’t solve!

  • Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life

  • We’ve got four different sized honey spoons in our house!

    Next they’re going to say they don’t own any wooden butter knives…

  • Seriously, why?

  • I’d rather a Mac than a Windows box. At least you get a proper shell (zsh or bash - zsh is the default now I think), python installed by default, can install package managers (macports, brew), can get coreutils, etc and most FOSS software from the Linux world runs since macs are UNIX at heart.

    I’m pretty sure cd isn’t even coreutils but implemented by shells as a wrapper for chdir/fchdir which is part of the kernel. Which has always bugged me since you can’t reliably pipe or redirect to cd since shells do things differently; it doesn’t handle stdin or the last component of a command runs in a subshell so doesn’t affect your current shell, blah blah.

  • Over 19,000 games have released on Steam in 2025, with nearly half seeing fewer than 10 reviews

    Jump

  • Steamdb lets you filter out games with less than x reviews which I’ve made liberal use of over the years.

  • What are some lower size games that work well on linux handhelds?

    Jump

  • I’d just take a look at the Steam Deck Verified pages as that’ll give you a good idea about a game (at least though Proton).

  • Windows compatibility layer Wine 11 gets a first Release Candidate

    Jump

  • It was in some video interview with the project leads after the Steam hardware announcement.

  • Windows compatibility layer Wine 11 gets a first Release Candidate

    Jump

  • Not exactly. Proton is a Wine fork which Valve have stated they intend to merge back into Wine in the future (since they’re working on it with CodeWeavers). If you look at the code in GitHub, they’ve made a lot of changes to Wine and they’re not fully tracking Wine main (looks like they’re porting instead).

  • Windows compatibility layer Wine 11 gets a first Release Candidate

    Jump

  • Pretty sure it’s the other around now - Proton is a future release of Wine and at some point Proton will merge back into Wine.

  • If you have studied or work with numbers, components shift from system 2 to 1 depending on your experience.

    I, too, just had to glance at 550 to know it was 250+ since 500/2=250 and that fact is just baked in there somewhere without me needed to think about division. And since it’s the same thing again with the 50, it doesn’t take more than a fraction of a second to do 250+25…

    But my system 1 never thought 225.

  • Hurray! This German State Decides to Save €15 Million Each Year By Kicking Out Microsoft for Open Source

    Jump

  • SUSE, Manjaro, Alpine Linux, CRUX, and NixOS are all technically European (as are many others).

  • Looks Like We Can Finally Kiss the Metaverse Goodbye

    Jump

  • Not entirely true. They’ll have black and white cameras at launch and have an expansion port on the front of the device for potential color cameras in the future.

    They just said AR isn’t their focus for this device, not that it isn’t possible.

    And I get it - everyone I know that already has XR headsets doesn’t bother with AR as the experiences are limited (and I imagine the union between AR gamers and tidy environments with clear surfaces is pretty small).
