Just be glad it’s not all attached to your optic nerves yet…
Bud knew a guy like that who’d somehow gotten infected with a meme that ran advertisements for roach motels, in Hindi, superimposed on the bottom right-hand corner of his visual field, twenty-four hours a day, until the guy whacked himself. -The Diamond Age, Neal Stephenson
I think the best outcome of the ongoing Reddit corporate trashfire would be if each subreddit mod team opened their own Kbin server for supporting and migrating their community, running their way. #RedditMigration#Reddit#Kbin#social#fediverse
A portion of the feed was made up from a user posting articles to this feed from one of the other instances. They generated a bit of discussion, but mostly it was lower effort links.
Personally, I wouldn't recommend immutable distros, as I think they limit our freedoms far too much, not that the way the general stack is going doesn't do that already. Not debating that here, since it's a hot and controversial topic currently, at least in the segment of the linux using population that cares about this stuff and which picked linux for that. Imo, if we do this, we'll basically make of the OS one block, from bootloader, to kernel, to initramfs, to display manager and finally desktop, especially since I'm hearing whispers of attempts at removing the tty kernel rendering being done, which will force us into using a specific compositor, desktop and so on, so we'll be exactly like windows or mac or android, so we lost everything, and then what's the point of linux?
If you want to use immutable distros anyway, I don't recommend silverblue for gaming, but I do recommend you give ublue linux a try, it has many drivers included, even some udev rules.
Ok, so I'm trial following @startrek and I'm getting a torrent(<a bit of hyperbole) posts in my home page. How do you people that follow hundreds/thousands handle this? Just ignore most of what flows down the page?
I've tried to be careful curating the people I follow, and it was fairly manageable til today. Trying to avoid setting up a lemmy acct, but StarTrek is only gonna get more active, and there's more to life than StarTrek :^O How to manage?
In Total Commander / Bejond All Reason apparently good players spend most of the match in a very zoomed out tactical map.
In general I think the Total Commander genre is one of the few that allows a somewhat usable total view. Another good candidate would be Homeworld, since there microng is not that important so you can probably play a whole game on the starmap.
Other cheating answer would include… Very small old rts on modern screens. I think a smallsized AoE II map on original resolution would fit on 4k panel…
Basically all the Total Annihilation clones allow you to zoom out to see the entire map and are designed to be controllable like that (units turn into small icons and such).
