degen,

Ugh Starbound was supposed to be so sick. That might be the only time I actually bought into early access hoping for more and got let down.

degen,

I had a lot of high hopes for what it was striving to be, but it kind of fizzled out and never really excelled at any particular thing. Not saying it’s necessarily bad, I just remember being so hyped about it.

degen,

I’m no statistician, but won’t the other 10% do just fine?

degen,

Girthquakes. California was always the gayest state anyway!

Apologies for the late comment. So this is a full-fledged frontend like photon or alexandrite, but with this recommendation engine built in? On first glance, it looks so much more responsive and lightweight! I’m really wondering what you’ve done that other big frontends haven’t lol, no broken images or anything! If you do end up going open source, I might consider actually contributing to something for once. I’d love to help build out some features.

Edit: After using it for a few minutes, wtf, it’s snappier than lemmy itself. And the community search, wow! Maybe a pretty ui does something to perception, I dunno. I am assuming you have barrels of cache lol.

New Israeli attack today (Tuesday) on Rafah evacuation zone (www.reuters.com)

CAIRO, May 28 (Reuters) - Israeli tanks shelled a tent camp in an evacuation area west of Rafah and killed at least 21 people on Tuesday, Gaza health authorities said, while advancing to the heart of the southern Gaza city for the first time after a night of heavy bombardment. Two days after an Israeli airstrike on another camp...

degen,

Tanks roll in and the net number of terrorists goes up instantaneously. And no, I don’t mean radicalizing children. Fragging COs would have better anti-terrorist outcomes.

degen,

I took a few years of French forever ago. Never really understood when to use ce over il, along with all the hyphenated forms ce is pushed into.

Personally, I always tried to translate back literally, so qu’est-ce que c’est -> what is it/this that it/this is. But I’ve also felt like this isn’t the best approach given it’s through the lens of an English speaker.

degen,

That makes sense. I always took it as ce is a more general “it” while il refers more to people or places, but I’m sure that doesn’t always hold true. And apparently ce is only used as a subject with être for the most part. I’m too analytical to just understand without digging in lol

degen,

I want to venture into some of the french speaking parts of lemmy, but I’m scared and it’s been waaaay too long lmao. And I definitely wish I could just “get” it like I get english (for the most part), but idk the hopes of that for a second language. Probably have to move to France lol

Like even the way native speakers type and talk is nowhere near “proper” most of the time, but it’s the language. And I wish I could do that in french, ya know? Hey, maybe Quebec will do!

Aaand I upset the native french speaker even more now.

degen,

Give me a second while I look through all the variations of limp biscuit on urban dictionary

degen,

To the nth degree. It’s got a lot going on

degen,

McDonald’s proving possessives matter just as much as commas

degen,

This is one of my favorite meme genres. An old phone somewhere has an image of Bill Nye behind a chemistry set with the description of full metal alchemist.

Also bargain bin DVDs with a sticker over part of the title that makes it hilarious

degen,

Ay girl, get me outta these backrooms

degen,

Or Jabbage?

degen,

Another for Mull and Cromite, here. I don’t really use Mull unless I’m looking for absolute compatibility with things like web games.

degen,

Dumbo was my spirit animal at 5 years old, this is so fucked

NixOS for gamedev

Hiya! I’m following a gamedev degree in university. It’s been a major challenge doing it from Linux, as everything is Windows stuff (.sln Visual Studio projects, DirectX API, excel graphs…). However I’ve gotten by by making my own tools and dipping into WINE when it gets too difficult. I’m replacing my laptop due to...

degen,

I went from Arch to NixOS and I’ve been loving it. I also had all the time on the world to dive in with several machines to fall back to.

There are a lot of layers to wade through especially when you need a specific tool like your UE5 case. As others are saying, there are ways to make everything work, nix or non-nix, it’s just more to work through after getting the bases covered.

Anecdotally, I had little trouble getting set up on my MSI laptop with an RTX2070, Primus and all. That was after learning the ropes on a Ryzen IdeaPad.

Rambling aside, I would definitely make sure to start in a non-mission-critical way, but do jump right in if you’re comfortable. Maybe if you can stomach the Asus a bit longer, or get the Framework set up and play around with the Asus. And ask plenty of questions! I know I’m not alone in jumping in on nix questions any way I can :)

degen,

Well, I know what my next project will be

degen,

Not accountable? But I thought they did math?

degen,

Why yes, because over 100 IDF IOF soldiers were massacred, right?.. Right?

degen,

I didn’t know ifunny could hit like this

degen,

Hilariously enough, I scrolled by that almost immediately after posting that comment. The acorn memes have been gold.

degen,

What are you, a researcher, or a quitter?

degen,

They’re afraid because now they can’t safely raid the evidence room or flip it on the down low. But also because they’re big dumb babies.

degen, (edited )

My first reaction was also to make fun, but it kinda seems neat and it’s different, which I welcome. Really hope there’s plans to support one strip across monitors cause that would be kind of dope to look at.

Edit: also I’ve had a pretty easy time with a 2070 running Wayland once the drivers and wm are right. I did manage to mess up my old nixos generations trying to get started and changing things around lmao. Landed on hyprland, and it’s smooth.

degen,

We’ll bring down Amazon! The hero we all need

degen,

I think it tastes like bologna

degen,

Brb, just making sure The Picard Maneuver isn’t in the student directory before I go to school tomorrow

degen,

Wow, finally a handheld with malware-like bloat and a near guarantee of serious design flaws!

degen,

All I want is per-site process isolation, dammit
