How short is short-term?
- Comment on Recommendations on casual GB/GBA games? 1 month ago:
Great question, I’ve been looking for the same. Some of my go-tos are:
- Tetris (GB) (of course)
- Pokemon Puzzle Challenge (GBC)
- Balloon Kid (GB)
- Castlevania II (GB)
- DuckTales (GB)
- DK - King of Swing (GBA)
- Game & Watch Gallery (GB)
- Comment on What do people here think of Nebula? 2 months ago:
I see. That is a valid concern. Though it feels unfair to say that headscale is ‘made by a tailscale employee’. From what I understand, one of the main contributors of headscale was hired by tailscale, though he is not the only maintainer and does not own the repo from what I can tell. Still, Tailscale could decide to cede all support of headscale and thst would likely hurt the project a lot. In the same way however nebula could decide to switch to proprietary licenses and discontinue their open source offerings.
- Comment on What do people here think of Nebula? 2 months ago:
What made you choose Nebula over Tailscale? I’m running it through a self-hosted Headscale server and it’s working well so far.
- Comment on Fresh From Revealing The Pocket Mini, GoRetroid Has Unveiled the Retroid Pocket 5 | Time Extension 2 months ago:
Looks like it could be a neat device, I wonder if it’ll bump up the $200 price point though. Also I was hoping for a Pocket Flip 2, but that is getting less likely at this point I guess.
- Comment on Any non-tech-background self-hosters? 2 months ago:
I started self-hosting a music server locally on a Raspberry Pi long before I switched careers to go into IT. I actually learned a lot that way.
- Comment on US: Alaska man busted with 10,000+ child sex abuse images despite his many encrypted apps 2 months ago:
If you restrict it, then it isn’t public. I’m not saying that encrypted group chats are useless. But if it is public and anyone can join anyway, then encryption adds no secrecy.
- Comment on US: Alaska man busted with 10,000+ child sex abuse images despite his many encrypted apps 2 months ago:
There is no point in encrypting a public group chat since anyone can join and decrypt it anyway.
- Comment on Demo For Ace Attorney Investigations Collection Now Available | Retro Gaming News 24/7 2 months ago:
I wonder which crappy DRM Capcom will put in the Steam version this time which will make me pick up the Switch version instead.
- Comment on Microsoft donates the Mono Project to the Wine team 2 months ago:
You seem very hurt about that one interaction you had with him months ago. If you’re gonna comment that under every gamingonlinux article you’ll have a lot to do.
- Comment on Why are so many leaders in tech evil? 2 months ago:
Not to take away from Zuckerberg, Musk, and the less-known people in tech like Thiel, but Bill Gates was and is a huge piece of shit who harmed more than just his competitors. Among other things he convinced the world that we need IP and patents for covid vaccines instead of sharing them freely, which alone cost countless lives around the world. I don’t even want to know what other ills his “philanthropy” has and will cause. newrepublic.com/…/bill-gates-impeded-global-acces…

With Overview you can get something very similar in Plasma, though you’d need to change the default shortcut to open it by just pressing the super key.

- Comment on "Privacy-Preserving" Attribution: Mozilla Disappoints Us Yet Again 3 months ago:
Default Firefox is becoming more and more unusable. I hope distros will start switching to something like Librewolf as the default browser in the future or heavily (and visibly) change the default Firefox config themselves.

- Comment on What's your favorite Super Mario Bros ROM hack? 5 months ago:
Can’t say I’ve ever tried an SMB rom hack, but Zap & Dash sounds amazing! Can’t wait to try it out
- Comment on We can do all three things at once 6 months ago:
Whether it would work or not wasn’t even the main point of what I said. But that doesn’t matter to you anyway as your strategy to debate seems to be to call others stupid often enough until everyone else understands how smart you are. Good luck with that.
- Comment on We can do all three things at once 6 months ago:
Reaching for an unproven concept of “drilling really deep holes” that’s barely a few years old to convince people there is no problem with long-term storage of dangerous waste we’ve been accumulating for decades, but sure, I’m just a NIMBY.
- Comment on We can do all three things at once 6 months ago:
And for how long to they have to be “safely stored”? For how long do they have to be buried without anyone digging them up? And where are we burying anyway where there is no risk of anyone digging them up intentionally or accidentally, no risk of natural phenomena interfering, no risk of the barrels breaking and nuclear waste seeping into our water? There is a reason why countries have been struggling to find these safe storage spaces for decades. I’d argue that is because there aren’t any.
- Comment on We can do all three things at once 6 months ago:
“Ukraine seems to be fine” is an odd thing to say considering what is going on there in general, but to your point, we can be glad that the fighting around Chernobyl did not do more damage. There’s also a difference in strategy when a country attacks their neighbour to annex their land. If they instead want to mess with a country further away, they can just drop some bombs on their nuclear plants and see what happens.
- Comment on We can do all three things at once 6 months ago:
France has not been at war since they started building nuclear plants and has no solid plan for dealing with nuclear waste either from what I can tell.
- Comment on We can do all three things at once 6 months ago:
The number of people who still think nuclear power is a manageable risk in any capacity is really depressing. We still have no idea what to do with all the nuclear waste we’re creating even now. And that’s not even considering the impact of having a nuclear plant when you’re in a war.
- Comment on Any way to update the software in Raspian without updating the OS? 6 months ago:
As long as your apt sources (/etc/apt/sources.list) are set to bullseye (and not eg. stable) you won’t “accidentally” upgrade to bookworm. At least that’s how it works in Debian, I assume raspbian is the same.
- Comment on It's time for a hard fork of Mastodon (DRAFT, REVISION IN PROGRESS) 6 months ago:
It’s not namecalling, it is a term that gets used and that Rochko talked about himself in an interview. There’s a footnote.
- Comment on Best Linux Distro For Playing On Steam? 6 months ago:
I’ve heard good things about Nobara Linux. It’s basically Fedora but customised for gaming. It’s maintained by GlouriousEggroll, who does a lot for Linux gaming in general. Otherwise I’m using Bazzite on my Steam Deck, which is pretty cool as well. It is a gaming-centric Fedora atomic version. It even comes with the Deck’s gaming mode, but only on amd GPUs unfortunately.

Ah, taking inspiration from what porn sites have been doing for decades to trick you into clicking on ads. Nice work, Google.
