  • Discord Alternatives, Ranked

    Jump

  • A lot of people I know regularly use screen sharing through discord or opentalk. Both for work/productivity and while gaming (watching each other, helping, sharing what people are up to etc).

    To get people to switch it sadly should support all features: text, voice, video and sending files/images/gifs/videos.

    It's tough.

  • I used an original iPod Nano in 2026, and it worked surprisingly well

    Jump

  • I just bought an Innioasia Y1, which is an iPod classic clone for $50.

    Put an unofficial Rockbox port on it and installed a 512gb micro SD card. Ignoring the mediocre DAC and comparatively unresponsive click wheel it's pretty good. I finally have my entire music library with me again and look at my phone less often (both of which were goals of getting an mp3 player again).

    I was big into mp3 players 15-20 years ago and used Rockbox on all of them so this is really nice especially at the price point.

    PS: They are working on a Y2 that improves upon a lot of things. The Y1 was marketed as a kids device but is awesome with Rockbox on it and went viral the past few months.

  • Hyprland Update

    Jump

  • Yup. Been on Niri for a couple of months and it works very well and is super stable.

    Niri seems to have a vision whereas Hyprland folks just seem to push as many features and changes as they can with little consideration.

  • Hyprland Update

    Jump

  • I moved on to Niri a couple of months ago for various reasons, constantly having to fix and re-check my config against the docs being one of them.

    For me Niri performs better, I really like the workflow and the dev behind it is very deliberate with new features and changes. Feels like he has a clear vision on how it's supposed to work and it shows imo.

  • Facing Worlds, the iconic Unreal Tournament map

    Jump

  • I loved Q3CTF4 / SpaceCTF. Kinda sad that arena shooters mostly died out in favor of hero shooters with special abilities and stuff.

  • Microsoft finally admits almost all major Windows 11 core features are broken

    Jump

  • I feel like Windows 11 is just another Microsoft "Windows moment".

  • @Grok is this true?

    Jump

  • Feature parity or get out

  • You must use a different Wayland than I do.

    I play competitive multiplayer games with VRR on a 4k240 monitor in a tiling wm with direct scanout. Color management support (HDR, 10bit, anything beyond 8bit sRGB) is also coming along.

    I've never had a better working setup than this. Everything on X was painful. Even just getting vsync to work properly used to be tricky in some cases.

    I agree that wayland does miss features compared to X but a lot of them are conscious design decisions and don't affect me personally. For example running graphical applications remotely through e.g. SSH or the complete lack of security allowing any application to easily read my keyboard input.

  • Steam On Linux Gaming Finally Cracks 3% For October 2025

  • What does the log say? PROTON_LOG=1 launch parameter and then check your home directory.

  • The amount of mental gymnastics to come up with (and justify) this is insane

    Jump

  • When activating with MAS you might as well just install a Pro version anyways.

  • Pilot dies after plane carrying nearly 200kg of SpaceX-branded cocaine crashes in remote Brazil

    Jump

  • It wouldn't even surprise me if some of the 150kg of cocaine went missing.

  • Welcome to 2025

  • About 20% of global traffic is routed through Cloudflare so unfortunately Cloudflare is very much a massive case of centralization.

    A Cloudflare outage would affect a huge number of websites and services and they have some degree of control over the way you host your and use their services.

  • Convincing people can be easy

    Jump

  • Nice. I didn't know about that and will check it out later. I am also using ALVR to play modded Beat Saber multiplayer on linux and have a very well working setup and configuration by now but it's still not great compared to Virtual Desktop on Windows with my Pico 4.

  • https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third-pound_burger

    A third-pound burger is a hamburger containing a patty that weighs one-third of a pound (approximately 5.3 ounces or 150 grams) before cooking. It is larger than a quarter-pound burger (4 ounces or 113 grams), which is commonly offered by fast-food chains. The third-pound burger became widely known in the 1980s following a marketing campaign by A&W Restaurants in the United States. The campaign, which sought to compete with McDonald's Quarter Pounder, was unsuccessful because consumers misunderstood fractions, making it a case study in consumer behavior and marketing communication.

    Volkswagen Beetle in Amsterdam

  • That's what the Volkswagen Beetle looked like. It was very challenging to get in and out and you needed a bunch of chocks to secure it when parked.

  • Right about now

  • I would not trust any company/website to properly encrypt any important messages in the first place so I don't care whether they add a backdoor (and I've never had a Twitter account anyway).

    ..but it sounds like a really shitty development/release process to me. Why would you disable something while whatever is to come in its place is not ready yet?

    Why not do the development first and then migrate when it's actually ready lol

  • Please, UI designers

    Jump

  • Massive +1. I can easily imagine complex 3D shapes in my head and freely manipulate them, but my brain works horrible when it comes to icons for some reason. I can't intuitively find what I need, not even after months or years. Even after using something for a long time I will constantly hover over all icons to read the tooltips until I find what I need.

    The software I work on at work has a navigation at the top of just icons. I see it every day and I just can't seem to associate the icons with the functionality.
