He also keeps explaining to me why Fedora better than my “nerd OS”

Complaining about what works for other people? It is tradition. It's innate Linux user behavior.

And the bit saying DxDiag opens faster feels really strange...

Active users will probably drop off as the Reddit dust settles, but I'm liking it so far, not really that much of a jarring change once you get past the ActivityPub shananigans.

This, by definition, is not a shit post.

How would a native implementation be better than DXVK? Wouldn't develops still need to port the rest of their app to Linux to use it? At that point, you could still just include DXVK, would the performance really be that much worse?

Honestly I laughed when it just spit an SVG in text at me. I was wholly expecting a GUI to appear.

I will need it two minutes tops. If I don't use it by then, I'll delete it, especially if it gives a warning like Rust does. But this? It just gets in the way.

Wdym? Almost all programs are like this, anything that uses an external library has issues like this.

And the former too, wtf.

Wait what's wrong with hydrophobic coatings? Are telling me coping techwear drip could kill me?

Bed room door closed, but usually not locked. 8 sentry turrets have the outer perimeter of the house secured. /s

What is 2S?

Okay, but change to what then? All the other options are just Chrome, Safari, and Firefox again.

And it's their 8th birthday. EIGHTH! WHY DO THEY CARE ABOUT THEIR EIGHTH?!

All artists, the smaller ones especially. If you have a purely chronological feed (which is still an algorithm, just a very simple one) then your much more likely to only see the people who post the most and who posts right before you check the feed. With a more targeted algorithm, especially if it's being tuned to show the best content for you, not what'll get you addicted, can show you art you've missed from the artists that don't post very often. That tends to be people who don't do art full time or just take a long time on every piece. Statistics speaking, if you're following artists like me, who post just a bit more than once a month, you just won't ever see their work on a chronological timeline.

Lemmy's algo doesn't have the issue since post rank is based on votes & recent comments and you post to a specific community, but Mastodon does. I made the same post announcing a software project I'd spent ~3 days working on at that point. On mastodon, it stayed relavent for a few hours, but on Twitter the same post kept getting likes for ~3 days and it was mostly from people who'd actually be interested in the project, and not necessarily people who follow me.

It also discourages people from upvoting more controversial topics, for better or for worse.

I just hope it doesn't turn into Twitter's culture of ruining people's lives by showing they liked a sus tweet 5 years ago, LMAO.

I think I like this more than the original prompt.

Or Inkscape or Blender. Deforming text on along a curve isn't really something I'd use anything try to be Photoshop for TBH.

As an artist/content creator. No, it's not always a good thing. :/

I distinctly remember Telegram having given a phone number and account creation date for someone to a government, they didn't have anything else to provide allegedly.

Yeah, something similar happened to VRChat a year ago, Neos and ChilloutVR had crazy spikes in signups in the first few days of the controversy but eventually ended up with around 2x-5x online users afterwards.

Is there a FOSS alternative to Niagara?

Pawb.social's Lemmy fork is talking adding both of those features, I'm not sure if jerboa could use those somehow, but all the duplication of work seems strange to me with Lemmy.

Is there a transhumanist sub?

No, we grew up on Vista and 8.

Isn't that what upvotes are supposed to be for? Just not how people actually use them...

Arch & Windows 10 on my desktop, OpenSuse Tumbleweed on the laptop.

Would you still consider "arranging your life around" a problem if it were a different hobby?

Anhedonia?

No, think about it, it makes a lot of sense. If you are covered in water, you are dripping wet. If you are covered in good clothes, you are covered in drip.

I did this during the pandemic in a crowded public bathroom, and people fucking stared at me like I was insane. Granted I used a stall like a urinal, and might have kicked some stuff, but a lot of them weren't wearing masks so...

"I hate Google and their dropping useful products and stalking me constantly," I post from my Pixel 3A while listening to YouTube Music.

Lemmy bumps posts when they get new comments.

Whoops, didn't mean to enjoy thinking about hypothetical people dying!

An N series mobile Celeron that's actually good? The N3060 has given me so many awful memories.

No, some of us have piss poor aim, and more commonly sudden bouts of inaccuracy and spread.

So like.. not even like biking, gymnastics, programming, woodworking? Like all those in-depth hobbies are just like... off limits because they're resource intensive?

I'd also recommend EWW if you want something GTK based, it's much harder to configure IMO though, but it is very powerful. I find myself switching between Plasma' widgets, Conky, EWW every so often.

I have the same sentiment about my OpenSuse Tumbleweed & Windows 10 installs. I don't feel like this about my very simple Arch install. I think my issue is that I just don't understand how to fix either when there is an issue.

Wait, no, I mean I used my feet to do everything, which involved a lot of kicking things in a crowded space, which added that I was a teenager & a black male was probably not a good look. I was pretty agitated though, but not angry. :p
