lime!

i can chime in with some actual experience!

my current problems with KDE are

• the greeter only accepts my password on the secondary monitor
• the compositor shuts down whenever something uses the GPU even though the setting is off
• my primary desktop randomly shunts itself to the right, plopping on top of the desktop on the secondary display and leaving a big black void on half my primary until plasmashell is restarted
• my panels keep collapsing their content down to the width of a single pixel until i resize them
• Wayland just crashloops and is completely unusable (no, i don’t have an nvidia card)
• i still can’t get the acrylic transparency to work :(

and what’s fun about this is, the issues are so intermittent and random that i never know what i’m going to get on a given day!

no that’s literally the description of the other axis…

as i understand it, the money goes to the foundation, and it’s the corporation that develops the browser. so it’s probably not strictly forbidden, but it does imply that the money is not for browser development.

it’s when you dodge all the shots

the Chilluminati podcast episode on him talks about how he had a really squeaky voice. like, imagine if mickey mouse could karate chop you.

also, he is still alive.

in the health sector specifically, IT is a mess because you can’t stop people from working or there will be deaths. one thing you should take away from this is that their jobs are important and it is crucial that they can do them. it is your job to support them; anything that stops them doing their job or makes it take longer, even once, is dangerous. improving infra for its own sake is not a good idea because it comes at the risk of peoples lives. the details don’t matter in the face of that.

if this stresses you out, you can absolutely change jobs. i did.

if you think you can work within those parameters, and you think you can find ways to improve the system in-place while mitigating the risks, then you will be highly respected.

hypothesis: the last reply is usually left there to stop hundreds of people replying that exact same thing below.

mozilla takes donations, but they don’t fund Firefox development with that money. that’s usually what people have against it.

i’ve seen something like this before, where the kernel holds the file handle open for the process so that it thinks the file is still there. i think it’s related to how the program closes the file but i don’t remember the details. restarting qbittorent will most likely fix it.

shit of feceus. it was right there, man…

it’s a standout of its genre, definitely. i thoroughly enjoyed my time with it. i have no nostalgia for the apple ][ style it emulates but it really serves the art direction brilliantly.

i had a discussion with a friend about the obra dinn a few weeks ago. i told him how i enjoyed the “hidden in plain sight” fact that the letter you get with the pocket watch is signed “Henry Evans” and he basically lit up. turns out he had been stuck on the two ladies that were passengers, and he connected in real-time what must have happened to them just because i mentioned the name. i love that it’s the sort of game that gives you epiphanies.

interesting perspective, because while i completed subnautica i got tired of pacific drive. mainly because subnautica is open and static. you can make your way around a problem area meaning you get by with less time scavenging, while pacific drive is relentless and random, and will absolutely fuck you up if you don’t have the right ingredients. it sells itself on its driving aesthetic, but you spend so little time actually in the car that it seems pointless. it’s all just digging through trash and crafting.

of course not. the american “system of checks and balances” only works if everyone plays by the rules.

…again

because political dissidents who are in jail for trying to overthrow a dictatorship should also be able to run. it’s one of those unfortunate situations where this would be a good thing to have under an authoritarian government…

sweden.

and I went back to check, it was imported by a costume shop in collaboration with hard rock cafe in the early 90s but the decision from the board of business to encourage people to spend for this holiday came in 97.

welcome to tiLtEd ToWeRs

halloween was imported into this country by a costume shop in 1997. this is common knowledge and the shop itself is very proud of this fact. because of this it is an explicitly consumerist holiday, and it is younger than me by a good margin. i do not know anyone who celebrates.

i definitely remember being excited for the possibility to play single player but telling my friends that we could play together if it succeeded. not that the online experience differs significantly from the single player…

i was gonna suggest the classic

re.match(r"^(..)\1*$", "0" * abs(i)) is not None
