I have my client (Summit) set up to mark posts as read when I scroll by and to hide them. It can alao mark crossposts as read. Then I just browse by Scaled. Occasionally I switch to Top over x timeframe when I have been away for a while.

Crack tip number 1: The desktop environment you use is independent of the distribution. You don’t have to switch to an entirely different distro if you don’t like Gnome or KDE or LXDE or whatever. On 90% of distros installing another desktop environment is one command away.

Crack tip number 2: If you want to know what a command does run man command or google that. Use the arrow keys to scroll up and down /searchterm to search for a word and q to exit.

Crack tip number 3: Ask for help on Lemmy.

What about the power savings regulations on Imperial Star Destroyers that allowed the Death Star plans to reach Tatooine?

Had a programmer like this when I was still an apprentice. He was so full of himself. Was originally a Java programmer but had to program in PHP because that was what ran on the server. I never found out why he couldn’t just put Java on the server. We had full control.

All his variables were first names. Like $klaus and $grobi. Because he was afraid of clashing with reserved keywords. The thing is, in PHP all variables begin with $ exactly to prevent this issue. So he brought that habit over from Java which was far superior and not such a “Mickey Mouse language”.

I mean, he wasn’t totally wrong, especially back then PHP was awful. But he surrounded every function with <?php and ?> (PHP was designed to be combined with HTML output outside of these tags) and had plenty of whitespace between them and couldn’t fathom why all his html files had huge swaths of whitespace at the start.

His way of preventing SQL injection was to look for SQL keywords in user input and then throwing an error in the log files.

And I thought the other day that it has been a while since he’s done a romantic comic.

The way they advertised swapping SD cards between Deck, Machine and Frame they are surely working on external storage.

Plus, your stuff is definitely still there but just the mount point or something changed.

Nice, hope this gets an Android version down the line.

The BSDs?

I mean, the One will certainly engage with that.

Just tested it. A Lemmy-Post is only created in one community, even if other communities are mentioned.

An external post (in this case from WordPress with the Activity Pub plugin) is only posted into the Lemmy community that is mentioned first.

Meh, I don’t see this as a problem. People already crosspost into multiple relevant communities. If anything doing so with one post is a feature that’s missing from Lemmy/Piefed. Or is it missing? I’ll try posting into multiple communities after this comment.

It seems to me that your problem is more aesthetic in nature. Maybe ask your favourite UI to make a feature to hide mentions and hashtags that are alone on their line.

No, it is a per game setting. When your game is a native Linux game it will use one of the Steam runtimes. If you had a Linux native game and selected Proton instead of a Steam Linux runtime Steam would download the Windows version of the game.

With Linux native games you usually don’t have to touch this setting.

No, it’s for running games on Linux. Steam will probably use the libs as well for its own functionality. But the main use is for game developers to target specific libraries so that they are independent of the user’s distribution.

And they can indeed be used outside of Steam as well. I sometimes use it to link in specific libraries for other games. @[email protected]

SUSE’s Open Build System can build for basically all distros. If you’re up to the task you can use that to build packages.

The runtime is not Steam itself. That’s more or less independent from the runtime. The runtimes are a collection of libraries that developers can develop against without having to include them themselves.

Kind of similar to the Visual C++ Runtime on Windows.

I see it as your knowledge is all canon, because fuck Disney!

I have one with the book of the Sith in it!

Any question about Linux or Steam Machine/Deck support?

If you can wait 3-4 months Valve’s Steam Machine is on the horizon. Depending on the prize that might be a good bargain.

But in the end it really depends on your budget. Excluding monitor, keyboard and mouse you can pay anything between 500 and 5000 dollars.

It’s basically the sams way as in Lutris. But it won’t be integrated into Heroic. If you want entries for each game you will have to add them yourself. And the games still need the Battle.net launcher because of the DRM.

First download the Battle.net installer from Blizzard. In Heroic add a new game, call it Battle.net or whatever, select the Proton version shown in the post above and choose the option to run an installation program first. Select to run the installer you downloaded and that should install it.
