Back during the WoW days (the flying mount expansion), every time I would walk home from Uni I’d think: “This would be a lot faster if I turned into a crow and flew over these houses”.

I played a Druid.

By some definition. They have always been usable to some degree because I think animators or something use Linux commercially on Nvidia, and for gpgpu they are still top class on linux (nothing comes close)

They haven’t always been the best for gaming or desktop (Wayland) use though, since Intel and AMD opened up their drivers.

Arguably in my experience Nvidia has been far less buggy for the last 30+ years on x11, and with this change they may have finally reached parity on Wayland, haven’t tried it myself.

I updated my AMD framework BIOS using fwupd last weekend with no problem on arch.

I guess you and I just have different tastes. I don’t think I’ve watched 1 hour+ videos that were just repeating, but the only ones I’ve watched that are that long are Dan Olson and Super Eyepatch Wolf.

With those I intend to watch half now and watch half later, but end up engaged enough to just watch them through in a single sitting

Can anyone recommend one? I honestly haven’t played one since slay the spire, and loved it. My wife didn’t enjoy the music after a few hundred hours so I stopped playing a few years ago.

I guess it’s finally to the point where selfhosters can admit to using k8s and not be bombarded by comments saying it’s overkill, which has happened in the past for:

• Self hosting at all
• Using VMs
• Using containers
• Using docker compose
• Using k8s (⬅️ I guess we are here)
• Using helm charts or whatever ends up replacing this

Anyway, I believe there is a tool also to turn docker compose files into k8s manifests if we want to take this a step further!

Yeah I’ve enjoyed all the Pokemon games in the last decade (I also dropped over 100 hours in Palworld).

If you listen to the internet, however, we’re apparently what’s wrong with Pokemon, because we’re not allowed to enjoy it unless it’s perfect and lives up to to everyone else’s very specific expectations, but the sales figures don’t lie, there are certainly more than dozens of us!

I suppose if you really like tools, Makita counts as an entertainment franchise.

Annoying thing about moonlight and sunshine is that you can’t use your existing controller configs easily.

Kitty supports images, not sure about alacritty, although there are many competing protocols for image display in a terminal emulator, so it could be that it just doesn’t support a particular program.

I use sunshine and moonlight. It’s designed for games but works far better because of it, as in if it’s good enough for games, the latency will be far better than other RDP protocols.

It doesn’t do clipboard sharing though.

I’ve recently started replacing most of my shell usage with org mode and babel, along with GitHub copilot and similar LLM backed tools it’s like autocomplete on steroids

For sniping, mostly. Not sure if eidolons are the same as before, but it’s really hard to aim at the joints using joysticks without motion controllers

Drag a selection box around it, or use ctrl. Or right click.

I’ve played something like 800 hours on the Nintendo switch, it was fine except for some of the lock puzzles which are way easier on mouse.

You gotta use motion controls though (well depending on the frame I guess)

Spreadsheet

Curious to hear what it’s like making parts with a spreadsheet. Is it like coding?

I use openscad a lot, and just tried using spreadsheets – adding parameters to each property in a part still seems really clunky, compared to editing a scad file in Emacs, which I vastly prefer, especially now that there’s AI code autocomplete.

What kind of edits are we talking? Firefox can add signatures and text now in its built-in pdf reader.

I use yay so I just go to ~/.cache/yay/sunshine-git after the failed build and change the PKGBUILD, then use makepkg -si to build and install it.

You can use the patch command to apply the diff.

I think your brain probably wanted to say “home remedy”.

If you’re a tinkerer it’s kind of addicting. I thought I’d give it a try just to see what it was like, and ended up staying up all night customizing it, and now about a month later I don’t really want to go back to KDE (been using KDE for almost 20 years)
