  • People of Lemmy, what games have you been playing lately?

    Jump

  • Mostly VR stuff, in the recent weeks. Specifically Golf+ since the IRL golf season is over and I’m sad about it, and I’ve been slowly getting into Elite Dangerous.

  • [UPDATE] Has anyone tried Fedora Asahi Remix ?

    Jump

  • Ardour is indeed pretty good. I’m a Reaper guy, which is incidentally available on Linux as well nowadays, so on the DAW and audio interface front, I’m all covered. If anything, my older 2i4 runs slightly more stable over Linux/Pipewire than it does on Windows with the official driver. I’m more on the composition/production side of things (amateur, although I do have a very small amount of professional experience), it’s mostly the amp sim and virtual instruments landscapes that left me on my appetite a bit last time I tried. There just weren’t many option and they all frankly sounded like crap. Maybe that got better since then, I don’t know hehe.

  • It’s more about it being a Marxist Leninist instance lol

  • Huh. I’ve tried the Ardour and stuff way for a while. I’m curious what kind of stuff you’re producing. I tried for a while, but IME the good effects, and ESPECIALLY virtual instruments, were very few and far between. This and VR gaming are the two things I still have a Windows machine for.

  • I have to admit - coming from a lemmy.ml user, this made me chuckle.

  • Non-English speaking programmers, do you write your comments in your native language?

    Jump

  • The place I used to work at had a bunch of people speaking various South and North Indian languages, Vietnamese, Swedish, French, English, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese. I’d have spent my whole days on Google Translate lol

  • Non-English speaking programmers, do you write your comments in your native language?

    Jump

  • I’m French speaking, but I write all code and comments in English, all the time. The code is basically English keywords and symbols, the mix and match just looks weird, makes it harder to share snippets for help or debugging with non-speakers. Especially in code that will be read by other people after the fact, it also tends to make it less likely that this person will be able to understand it - maybe they’ll hire an offshore team or some guy who just immigrated…

  • What is an extremely wholesome fact that could help brighten someone's day?

    Jump

  • Oh, I believe you. It’s most likely because of the shared Latin root. The comment I was responding to was in English, though.

  • The “Sol” name is actually more of a science-fiction, pop-culture thing. It’s just called “the Sun”. “Solar” comes from latin Solaris, meaning “pertaining to the sun”, “sol” itself meaning “sun”.

  • It's almost 2025, what futuristic things did you think we would have had by now or accomplished?

    Jump

  • Not a particular technology, but I really had a little bit of hope that we’d be able to tackle climate change like we tackled ozone depletion due to CFCs/HCFCs/HFCs with the Montreal Protocol.

  • Child dies from rabies after bat found in room, Canada officials say.

    Jump

  • I try not to judge, but I’m also utterly confused as to why the parents wouldn’t immediately have brought the child in for the shot after finding the bat, visible bite or not…

  • I am the fool (linux install)

    Jump

  • I never timed it up precisely, but on my desktop with an MSI board, it sometimes feels like I’m waiting longer for the board to get past the UEFI into the bootloader than for the whole OS to load off my m.2…

  • It do be like that

    Jump

  • Some people do overestimate how much of the software they’re actually using, and how far back some features go. I learned the little PS I know using a 7.0 license my father bought, I used it for years doing 2D graphics and web “design”, and still basically still have the same workflow with minor differences to avoid destructive changes.

  • Snap out of it

    Jump

  • I guess we should have added the word “notable”

    I’m terribly sorry, you left the door wide open ;)

    I’m curious, what makes AppImage a good choice for the lazy developer? Is it easier to create?

  • What's your stance on "donating" blood plasma?

    Jump

  • I read it in the sense that they were hurting for plasma donations in particular, and that because they can store it for longer, a single donation has more potential impact, not that they only took plasma donations.

  • Where did he say this?

  • What is a low technology you really love ?

    Jump

  • Ah, yeah, that’s probably it. I eat patna rice pretty much exclusively, and multiple times a week lol. Some rice types (especially whole-grain, brown or wild rice varieties) have different water ratios and indeed kind of defeats the whole set-and-forget thing.

  • What is a low technology you really love ?

    Jump

  • Key word “that much more”. It is therefore indeed “more” work, and it’s my, and many other people’s, reason for getting one. I also suppose many discussions we’ve both had in our comment history were also had by other people lol

  • What is a low technology you really love ?

    Jump

  • Yeah but then you have to watch it and think about it versus I press a button and it comes out perfect every time lol
