As a redirect to a list of Fediverse instances? That’d be funny AF. As a locked solo instance? Sure, for the lolz. As a real deal instance for a community? Not a chance… Basing a community on hating a guy is sure to attract more hate, and moderating that just sounds complicated.

Solus. It was this or opensuse tumbleweed but I got cold feet with tumbleweed. I wanted away from a release schedule because I got frustrated with Ubuntu. So now I get weekly updates, and I’m happy with that. I’m currently on Plasma 6.3.3 and life is good.

Frutiger Aero ❤️! But like the article said, there’s also a lot of reasons not to use it.

I’m using a semi-rolling distro with KDE right now. I think that’s the way.

Interestingly, ExplorerPatcher recommends not using it on work machines. Dev knows their target audience, LOL. Probably more of a CYA type thing, you know, in case M$ break something and leaves it inoperable, but for a work machine I’d want to run it as stock as possible.

But it’s probably the only software that fits your need of being FOSS… Did you get better?

Indeed, I remember playing with lockscreen widgets! I miss Icecream Sandwich and Jelly Bean.

Even though it’s typically associated with KDE and Linux, it’s also available on Windows. Good for people who haven’t made up their mind yet. It’s a great text editor with a feature-set similar to other advanced notepads.

I’ll be real though, if I hadn’t jumped ship 3 years ago, I’d be cutting my losses with Windows here.

Honestly, neither. Got a good local takeaway about 5 minutes on foot, don’t even need to drive. Bit cheaper and I get to eat in the comfort of my own home.

If not that, then I’d rather go to a supermarket and pay up for one of the nice pizzas.

I remember when compact was hidden - apparently this was a change driven by telemetry. It was possible that there’s an overlap between those who use compact and those who turned off telemetry. I wouldn’t be surprised if something similar also occurs with Pocket being left on too.

If compact breaks in a future update, it’ll probably be removed altogether. At that point, best option would be userchrome customisation.

IIRC, this change was made ahead of the impending UI overhaul. This combined with the Windows 11 getting bigger touch-friendly UI elements understandably didn’t sit well with many people.

Not a SD user, but a desktop gamer who found your post. I wouldn’t be surprised to see people on the fediverse say they often play games outside of Steam.

The non-techy people I know treat the thing like a console and refuse to use desktop mode for games. That’s the catch of the Steam Deck. It runs Linux underneath, but most people never (want to) interact with it. I love it for what it does for Linux gaming but there’s more to PC gaming than just Steam - Although I’m aware that Steam probably underprices these with hopes to recoup the loss back on Steam purchases.

(Also your method isn’t really hacky, that’s just kind of how binary executables work in Linux, plus the steps to add it to Steam)

Who needs a monitor when it’s all AI powered anyway? Just ask your AI, it’ll handle everything for you!

Embrace minimalism!

TBH I don’t really mind a change in gameplay for FF7 or FF16. I don’t mind alternative story direction or action combat. But I’m not a purist and my favourite was FF12 so I guess purists consider my opinion invalid… LOL

FF7R being divided up into multiple releases and sold individually has caused me to just wait it out and buy later. Surely I’m not the only one. I’m also a PC gamer, so sometimes I can’t buy even if I wanted to and it just slips from my mind. Oh well.

Spikes in activity are the norm for new leagues, Player retention is actually how we define the success of a league. But yeah so far it’s looking good, especially now that some number tuning’s been done.
