Is that last one a specific game or did a developer do that?

It’s pronounced “siren sester”.

It’s English. The only rule is that actually in some cases the rules are different.

    So that it’s bitter? So that you have a reason to put salt in it?

    Depends what you mean by work. People always want to do things and create things and help others. They don’t want to spend 8 hours a day doing menial, meaningless crap just to be able live.

    What’s the joke? VSCode has multi cursor.

    Great game companies don’t win lawsuits?

    YSK that chiropractors are not medical doctors and "Systematic reviews... have found no evidence that chiropractic manipulation is effective" (en.wikipedia.org)

    “Systematic reviews of controlled clinical studies of treatments used by chiropractors have found no evidence that chiropractic manipulation is effective, with the possible exception of treatment for back pain.[8] A 2011 critical evaluation of 45 systematic reviews concluded that the data included in the study “fail[ed] to...

    Yeah, If the chiropractor doesn’t use chiropractic methods, it’s definitely preferable.

    Bottom row, far right. Simple, minimalist, caffeinated, unhinged.

    Good article. Rather than aliasing `cd …/…" etc. I’ve got this function in my setup:

    
    <span style="color:#323232;">up () {
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">	local x='' 
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">	for i in $(seq ${1:-1})
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">	do
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">		x="$x../" 
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">	done
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">	cd $x
    </span><span style="color:#323232;">}
    </span>
    

    This lets me do up 4 to go up 4 directories.

    Go for it. I’ve been using it for years without a problem.

    executivechimp ,
    @executivechimp@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

    True. That is something that could be done.

    executivechimp ,
    @executivechimp@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

    I’ve tried things like that before but never got on with them. I found when I had many projects with similar directory structures it was easy to end up in the wrong place and took more thought to get to the right place than just cding

    That’s what YouTube was so maybe the churn will continue.

    Issue with Samsung Odyssey G3 and squashed windows after a period of inactivity (i.imgur.com)

    I have two screens, one of them is Samsung Odyssey G3. This model has some sort of “deep sleep”, it takes more time to wake one up after a period of inactivity (i.e. AFK). As a result, all windows that are placed on this screen are squashed. See the attached screenshot....

    Happens whenever my laptop goes to sleep and it’s really annoying. As far as I could tell it’s a KDE bug. The only fix (which didn’t work for me) is apparently to stop it trying to dynamically detect displays.

    executivechimp ,
    @executivechimp@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

    That’s a good analogy because that also happens all the time.

    If you only compare games to what you want them to be then you can claim any game sucks. The gunpay in Madden games, for example, is awful.

    Unity ...It Just Keeps Get Worse (youtu.be)

    To say it’s been a bad week for Unity is the understatement of 2023. First they announced a terrible new Pricing scheme, then their customers revolted, as the week goes on though, it gets worse and worse for Unity, from threats from an employee shutting down their offices, to more studios threatening to leave, to scummy secret...

    Or the Source 2 engine, which is just a patched version of the Quake 1 engine.

    Don’t worry, none of us are doing things the best way.

    Install Node with snap? Cypress silently closes. (This took some time to get to the bottom of)

    According to the source, Microsoft wants to make the taskbar appear to float above the desktop by separating it from the desktop and rounding off the corners.

    …why?

    As far as I know there’s nothing to stop any given fediverse app being a privacy nightmare. But the fediverse itself isn’t.

    executivechimp ,
    @executivechimp@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

    I mean the apps rather than the instances. There’s nothing about the fediverse that would stop, say, Jerboa (to pick one at random, I’m sure they’re fine!) from scraping and selling your data.

    executivechimp ,
    @executivechimp@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

    Very true
