It is an old joke that I thought was very well known, at least for people that know about emacs, my mistake, but hey, Luck 10.000 of you, so here it goes:
“Emacs is a great operating system, lacking only a decent text editor”

I am sorry? Are you suggesting that somehow an text editor has more functionality than a fucking OS?
- Comment on PC game recommendation for my partner and I 2 weeks ago:
I know that you said multiplayer, but if I can be one more voice on single player games that you guys may enjoy playing in turns I strongly recommend GRIS. It is so beautiful and I think it suits itself well for shorter play sessions.

So, what you are saying is that you didn’t see them being summoned, just that the despawn takes a couple of hours. That makes sense otherwise it would be too op.
- Comment on It just keeps getting worse - Firefox to "evolve into a modern AI browser" 1 month ago:
I don’t know if that is the reason but I wonder if the recent ruling that made Firefox loose on the cash income from Google as a default search engine has them doing a similar type of deal with AI companies, even Google, like, Firefox has a built-in interface for AI and the backend you can choose but the default one is one that some AI company pay a fee to be.
If that is the case I think it is fine, it is like a wink-wink situation, you have to have it enabled by default and with a default provider for it to be worth something for someone to pay for the privilege, and then the users can simply change it be gone with it without affecting the payout. (Unless the pay or renew pay has some metric like use statistics)
- Comment on Is gold investing a scam? 1 month ago:
There was a video essay by Folding Ideas (From “the line goes up” fame) about a weird documentary narrated/hosted by Idris Elba, and If I am remembering it right it was basically a propaganda/ad film targeting people like peepers and that are skeptical of the government and such. So I believe there is at least a push to make gold more marketable and in fashion, like De beers did for diamonds.
I don’t know if I am allowed to link to outside content (because the rule of no reposting outside content) but in any case it should be easy to find for anyone interested.

I almost bought that keyboard, but never did in the end.

It was not most resources. It was just one SPE that was locket behind for the firmware.

I feel the standardization they mean is in the spec and not the specific build. Like, a lot of games are terrible optimized, not only on runtime but also in space needed, it is getting out of hand. But if you have to target a popular machine like steam deck or the steam machine that is not super high-end and have lower capacity storage you have no option but to put some attention on optimizing you game at least a little.

Then it adds barrier to entry. If it costs money it will be a problem for the more vulnerable population. If it is free and you can have as many as you want it is gonna be abused, if there is a limit it again starts to be a problem.
- Comment on Settings you believe ANY game should have? (This is me advocating for a restart/reboot button on ALL games) 2 months ago:
I always dread picking up a new game that is kinda demanding on the hardware because I hate to keep testing all graphical settings to have the best graphics with good fps. The least they could do is show a split scene with each setting on or off so you can judge with your eyes, but a button that you set the fps and the game crunches some numbers and benchmark to find the best quality graphics settings it can do at the target fps.
If it can adjust the graphics on demand would also be awesome because some games can have variable demands during gameplay.

Oddly enough I think that porn games are a little closer to do what you suggest because rewatch the cutscenes is kinda important it seems in that genre 😅

Om that note, see the save-tree would be nice. So you know when saves diverge and such.

Also cyberpunk loves to do a double duty multiple unrelated actions to one keybind so you cannot rebind each action individually.
- Comment on Gaming Pet Peeves 2 months ago:
When the game let’s you rebind some but not all keys it is like spraying lemon on the wound, at least when no key is refundable you can guess they could not be arsed to do it, but when they just do a shitty job on it is like it was almost there, why not do it right?

Did you get streaming services to stream 4k? That was some bullshit I discovered when I bought my first 4k TV, that streaming services artificially limit quality for browser and Linux streaming.
What is you solution for remote controlling? I used one of this mini keyboard+mouse combo in a shape of controller, but mine was really trash. Most of the time I used a good mouse that worked ok on the couch surface and some mouse binds to pop up a virtual keyboard. But I was never completely happy with the solution.

At launch and for a good while PS3 came with a boot to Linux enabled by default, some universities around the globe bought some “from the shelf” to make some server farm and such.

Also people who like to DIY seem to forget that a lot of people want a turn-key solution, I even dare to say that most people prefer a ready made solution. Even a lot of people who work in tech when they get home want a just work solution.
- Comment on The highlighted division and factions of Lemmy. 3 months ago:
That is because “left and right” conflate too much in the same name and depending on what you are thinking they may be right wing or not. I feel like tankies, in regard of social policies are more left wing, for economic policies it may be right or left wing depending on how you see it, but on the control, political, democratic policies they are right wing, because they are more authoritarian.

He has a number of good movies. I guess because the most popular means visible movies are his slop comides for the whole family his “real” movies kinda goes under the radar.
Uncut gems is a masterpiece but I wanna mention Spaceman because it is fantastic. It is kinda the opposite of Uncut gems, if the first is like fast pace on the edge of you seat that you spend the whole movie holding your breath that shit is about to hit the fan, Spaceman is super slow and introspective, big great nonetheless.

If it is possible yes, but sometimes it is not or the other options are even worst.

Then you will “love” to know that they can still charge the card after they have swiped it. I was floored when I noticed it. So you give the card and then they come back with your card and a new bill that has a place for you to write down how much tip you wanna add. You do not give your card again, you just leave the paper in the table and they will add the amount to what they are gonna charge your in your cc. This would not fly in my country, I am actually shocked that cc fraud is not more widespread in the US with how “low security” it all seems. Once I when to buy something and I head forgotten my cc PIN (because now always using contactless pay and such", the person handling the register told me I can skip it, and sure enough, there was an option on the machine to skip entering the PIN. I guess the PIN stuff is new in the US and people are not used to IT so it is not even a red flag to say that you do not know your own PIN and they even have the case built-in in the software. Shocking.
- Comment on It Might Be Time to Admit the Great VR Experiment Has Failed 10 months ago:
I don’t see input being discussed as much as it should, but when modern games became very realistic, let’s say Battlefield 4 era, it became clear for me that the current challenge for gaming is input. You can make an character animation do anything but you can’t instruct it to the character, maybe that is why this quick time action bullshit is so popular, because you can make a very complex cinematic scene but you can’t make the player give the input for it.
That is all to say this problem is 10x worst for VR games. Like the biggesr benefit of a 3D view is to move around but if you can’t do that in a natural way it kinda sucks, that is why 3D movies sucks, you are not moving around the scene. I guess that is also why VR works well with flight sims because in a real plane you are confined to your sit and can only look around. Now a shooter or other FPSs you WALK around and that has not being solved.

I cannot get over the fact that that is not how whatsapp looks when someone sends multiple messages. This is the chat list screen that shows your recent chats. This image is like multiple contacts with the same name and image (but different phone number) sending the same message.
And it would be so simple if it was the correct chat screen with multiple messages from the person with each its own time stamp and stuff
