That’s just such unnecessary friction. If it already works, just stop treating people like they’re guilty first, and have to be acquitted later

On Nix, trying it out is the easiest case scenario of all. Try out the community flake, and roll back if it isn’t up to your standards yet

That’s kind of the point though. One of the foundational pillars of a good distribution is mature package management, and that includes not relying on self-updaters that will pollute your system with untracked files

You can already do that now. Either install the cosmic group, or cosmic-session-git from AUR for a newer version from upstream

I would like for the people, who come up with these ideas, to dogfood their own product. Actually force them to try their own medicine. It would be a single digit percentage of acceptance then

So they CAN do something nice. Wish it didn't come down to a gigantic lawsuit for them to do it though

I used to be a huge fan of Fi, especially as someone who would frequently travel, as it was really cheap to use both at home and abroad.

That was all until they pulled the rug from under me and i got slapped with bills for an inactive plan.

Even Amazon with their AWS would cancel stuff if you’ve clearly not been using your instance, but these guys changed the agreement and said fuck you anyway.

Not that it matters anyway, because genocide supporters don’t deserve any clients

I used to like purpose-made IDEs when i was just starting out with Java years ago, but these days, these are a hard sell for me.

A lot of Jetbrains plugins are incredibly opinionated, and you either have to use it their way, or gut the IDE, where half of its purpose loses value.

DIY editors like VSCode aren’t perfect but they’ve opened up a whole new market for things

One of the best games I have played in recent years. Finally scratched an itch that Gothic left me with for years

Yabridge is pinned to 9.21 because of changes to Wine, that broke UI interactivity for most VSTs. There is a branch where it's being worked on, but the main branch recommends to pin the older Wine

The description sounds like you're one of the people who are affected by this. Try setting LD_PRELOAD="" in launch params and see if anything changed

I get the desire to have it feel premium, but using any kind of alloy will result in a heavier headset, and that’s just not the right choice

Unlikely to happen, because the leadership behind the project claimed they are in contact with Bethesda, to make sure no one’s stepping on anyone’s toes. Although obviously they can just pull the rug at any time, which would be catastrophic. Given that they’ve remade basically every single asset in the game, and require the original game to be owned and installed, it should be fine

Yeah that checks out. I've found out about this in a doubly infuriating scenario.

I was home abroad on a holiday, and they billed me for my regular monthly service. So naturally, i got slapped with the 25$ rejection fee, and then my bank decided to pay the overdraft on the second attempt, resulting in another 45$ in bank fees for that too.

Everything in the US is purposefully designed to fuck you over.

I have mine on a rPi 3b+, in a docker container. Works great

Ulauncher is pretty similar to Raycast, in what it's trying to do. I've used it for a while before

I have literally thrown away a 3DS at some point because during a broken shell swap, i’ve torn one of the ribbons twice and came to the conclusion that cost of repairs far outweigh the cost of not doing them.

The ribbon bundle, shoved through that tiny circular hole, has got to be one of the worst design choices they’ve made

Genuine question for PoE1 veterans: What is it exactly, that people want from the sequel?

With my little experience in 1, I was excited about the new gem system, and the idea of not having to deal with stacks of 20 prefixes on high-end mobs, and it seems that at least with the latter nothing has changed

Oh it absolutely does. Anything you run through steamplay gets a folder in ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/ or equivalent for your installation

I run it through the same proton prefix as the game that's being modded
