I believe it actually does matter. Every person using Discord brings their friends onto the platform. Users leaving will probably also lead to others in their bubble leaving/following to an alternative.
So lots of people leaving has a bigger effect than just that set of users being absent. Even if you didn’t pay for Nitro, some of your friends might have and may stop now.
Thank you! Finally an answer to my problem that didn’t end with me going to the car wash and being utterly confused how to proceed.
Qwerty was developed so that typewriter hammers have a low chance of hitting each other and get stuck. It was never about finger travel or ergonomics.
PCs adapted the layout and unfortunately we stuck with it ever since. There are many better layouts, some more extreme in terms of difference to qwerty, some just fix the most blatant problems. Colemak and Dvorak for example.
A lot of people I know regularly use screen sharing through discord or opentalk. Both for work/productivity and while gaming (watching each other, helping, sharing what people are up to etc).
To get people to switch it sadly should support all features: text, voice, video and sending files/images/gifs/videos.
It’s tough.
I just bought an Innioasia Y1, which is an iPod classic clone for $50.
Put an unofficial Rockbox port on it and installed a 512gb micro SD card. Ignoring the mediocre DAC and comparatively unresponsive click wheel it’s pretty good. I finally have my entire music library with me again and look at my phone less often (both of which were goals of getting an mp3 player again).
I was big into mp3 players 15-20 years ago and used Rockbox on all of them so this is really nice especially at the price point.
PS: They are working on a Y2 that improves upon a lot of things. The Y1 was marketed as a kids device but is awesome with Rockbox on it and went viral the past few months.
Yup. Been on Niri for a couple of months and it works very well and is super stable.
Niri seems to have a vision whereas Hyprland folks just seem to push as many features and changes as they can with little consideration.
I moved on to Niri a couple of months ago for various reasons, constantly having to fix and re-check my config against the docs being one of them.
For me Niri performs better, I really like the workflow and the dev behind it is very deliberate with new features and changes. Feels like he has a clear vision on how it’s supposed to work and it shows imo.
I feel like Windows 11 is just another Microsoft “Windows moment”.
I’ve used this neovim keybind for years:
vim.keymap.set({'n', 'x'}, 'gy', '"+y') -- copy
vim.keymap.set({'n', 'x'}, 'gp', '"+p') -- paste
I was able to copy/paste between nvim and other applications on sway, Hyprland, Niri and KDE on Wayland.
The global clipboard register + should also work in modern regular vim afaik.
You must use a different Wayland than I do.
I play competitive multiplayer games with VRR on a 4k240 monitor in a tiling wm with direct scanout. Color management support (HDR, 10bit, anything beyond 8bit sRGB) is also coming along.
I’ve never had a better working setup than this. Everything on X was painful. Even just getting vsync to work properly used to be tricky in some cases.
I agree that wayland does miss features compared to X but a lot of them are conscious design decisions and don’t affect me personally. For example running graphical applications remotely through e.g. SSH or the complete lack of security allowing any application to easily read my keyboard input.
It wouldn’t even surprise me if some of the 150kg of cocaine went missing.
I would not trust any company/website to properly encrypt any important messages in the first place so I don’t care whether they add a backdoor (and I’ve never had a Twitter account anyway).
…but it sounds like a really shitty development/release process to me. Why would you disable something while whatever is to come in its place is not ready yet?
Why not do the development first and then migrate when it’s actually ready lol
But to be fair, Nix is not the only answer to that. There are lots of tools for just dotfiles but you can also build something using e.g. ansible to manage everything.
All my computers have their config in a git repo. That includes users, packages, services, dotfiles, /etc configs and so on. I used ansible before writing my own tool. I can install Arch from scratch and only need to partition, run one script and then apply my config on first boot using my tool to have my system restored. I know it’s not as declarative and absolute/reproducible as Nix, but it works and it’s way less painful than my last attempt at giving NixOS a go.
The code of the packages is the documentation. So the newcomers better start learning Nix language and reading the paper about how Nix works under the hood before they get started! /s
But seriously, I used NixOs for about 2 years almost 10 years ago and while it was/is fascinating when you have everything setup, getting there and maintaining everything across so many packages that each have their own way of configuring them took hundreds of hours. I’m back on Arch using a custom tool I wrote to fully manage my configs, packages, dotfiles etc.
The way I remember it is that there is no consistency across Nix packages and it all feels like a giant puzzle for people who enjoy spending time configuring more than actually using the computer. And I say that as someone who actually enjoyed getting into that when I had unlimited time.
Why would you even have git repositories in OneDrive in the first place? Or are those local-only repos without an actual server to push to?
Yeah, especially the ones made by pharma companies that doctors hand out.
Nvidia does more than just GPUs.
Nvidia makes both SoCs like the Tegra series and server CPUs (Grace; ARM based to be used with their ML/AI cards with much higher bandwidths than regular CPUs).
Nvidia also just announced that they are working on a consumer desktop CPU.
I can speak from experience having used both wired (Index) and wireless (Pico 4 with ALVR) VR on Linux and the performance and stability is horrible. Always has been sadly. I can play some VR games on Linux but overall it’s not worth it in the current state.
If you rely on it that much maybe its time to download it all and keep it.
I am so grateful for already having been paranoid about sharing anything identifying about me starting 15+ years ago.
I never uploaded a picture of myself. Never used my real name anywhere. I used different nicks for different branches of the Internet. A plethora of different email addresses etc.
People thought I was being overly careful and I probably missed a lot of things due to not using Whatsapp, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat but I can’t say I regretted it at any point.
