Get in the timeout box.

XDG Desktop files are a mostly standardized way to integrate individual programs into the desktop. For example, a desktop file in /usr/share/applications or ~/.local/share/applications can add programs to the application launcher, both desktop launcher menus and separate apps like dmenu-run; or they can be used to start applications when the desktop session starts by placing them in ~/.config/autostart.

Desktop files can also set properties related to an application. In this particular case, the MimeType field tells the desktop session what MIME types should be associated with the application. For example, my desktop file for Blender associates the application/x-blender MIME type with it, which causes Blender to show up in the Open with… dialog.

The MimeType field is a semicolon-separated list. One desktop file can define multiple associated MIME types for the same application. Krita instead creates a separate file for each association.

Holy FUCK, I’m going to use that so much.

I managed to fix it by forcing a firmware update in Steam’s developer mode, I’ve updated the post with details.

There is, and it worked perfectly. Updated the post.

If I have to install Windows on a machine (mostly work-related), I always use Chris Titus’ WinUtil to strip out the garbage bits and delay or completely stop updates. It’s basically a GUI wrapper around various Powershell commands.

You grossly overestimate the number of people who are both willing and able to deploy, secure, manage, and maintain this kind of infrastructure. You may not find any value in offloading these responsibilities to a service provider operated by trained professionals, but your outright refusal to acknowledge that other people might is nothing short of callous.

Not having to configure a separate utility is part of the user-friendliness

Vordt of the Boreal Valley has been real quiet since this dropped.

edit: this is way funnier with the original title: Your containers are leaking (and how to plug the holes)

Suckless shampoo is just a bucket of wood ash and pork tallow.

Lots of red flags if you take a peek at the developer’s account. https://bsky.app/profile/getamouraapp.bsky.social/post/3mknta2ejrv2q/quotes

They were shipped into the US from Hong Kong, so probably manufactured (or at least assembled) in East Asia.

I knew the inventory would be sold in minutes, so I prepped. I loaded 150 EUR into my Steam wallet in case the 99 didn’t include taxes, I double checked that my shipping and billing info is automatically filled in, and I made sure to be at my computer one hour before the release time just in case I fucked up the time zone conversion.

Oof. That’s rough. But given how insanely profitable these ~90 minutes must have been for Valve, I’m sure they’ll be back in stock in a few weeks since none of the components seem to have supply issues.

I managed to get one by just spam-clicking the continue button for about two minutes. I know, I’m part of the problem.

Warframe has all three. Late-game players will gladly carry new players through some of the early farms and often foist upon them a crapton of important items that are difficult to get in the early game (we remember and nobody should have to go through the early game alone).

There are some who call the game woke trash and trying to boycot it because the latest female warframe has a larger body type and they can’t goon to it, or because of a relationship between two male characters that is hinted at being romantic, or because there are two nonbinary characters (both of whom are far better executed than most in media)… and some who sent the developers death threats for making a particular farm easier for new players.

Realistically, I don’t think any year will be the year when Linux for mobile takes off, ironically for the same reason why Windows Phone failed, and that is app availability, or the “will my banking app work on it?” problem.

Is 2026 going to be the year of the Linux handheld? /s

(No, Android is no more a Linux OS than the PlayStation is a BSD fork.)

Is that before or after Emperor Palpatine’s cameo in Rugrats?
