I turn silent off when the home wifi connects. I don’t keep my phone on my pocket at home, but i also don’t allow notifications on most apps, and no noise or vibration on any notification.

I don’t hate ms bullshit anymore, people are free to use anything else. Now, i am just glad that the average consumer software is garbage, and we can look like wizards and get some cash when we automate lengthy processes for corpos that got used to the inefficiency.

Most people do, they are just comparing themselves with models, celebs or influencers, people that earn a living out of being pretty.

Windows is frustrating for average people, the thing is that they get used to ms bullshit because they think there are no other way.

My general rule is that i shouldn’t spend more energy than the person asking for help because there are people that call for help not because they are unable to solve the thing on their own, but because they rather someone else did everything for them.

They put up guard rails to protect the ego of facists from developed countries only.

Maintaining a browser is crazy hard. If Firefox goes to shit, it would require some serious foundation to maintain a good fork.

Next step is selling recaptcha for phones.

Most saas products no, most of software i saw advertising on those kind of channels yes.

Most of the “tech” youtube world is based around presenting mostly useless consumer products as it was technological advancement.

Most of their SAAS advertisers could be replaced by a “docker compose up”, hardware ones, most of the time are just regular tools with one or two gimmick.

The way to get money advertising on linux is by misleading business people into getting useless enterprise services.

Yes, on classic fps you could spaw a console that will drop down from the top os the screen, some terminal emulators allow you to do that.

I like it because then i have the terminal always open that i just draw from the top of the screen with a keypress

On KDE i do that with Yakuake, and on gnome with tilix

I use quake style terminals, and often start writing a file and completely forget about it and turn off the computer, and only remember what i left behind when i find the random recovery files around, so :w a lot is quite useful for me.

This, i loved the original Alan Wake for it’s story, i wouldn’t care at all if the second game had the exact same graphics. The industry wants to push for graphics because it is very simple for them to improve that, just put more time/money on the assets, hire actors to do mocap and not think about anything else, that’s as souless as the movie industry.

That one talks so much around the compatibility of gaming and regular parts, how laptops and smartphones are so much more popular now for non gamers, and fetishism about how expensive everything is.

Gaming on PC used to be just buying a graphics card and putting on your regular computer, maybe upgrading the PSU, now although a low end graphics card on a regular desktop can give you pretty good results, most people don’t have desktops, and notebooks are getting less and less modular.

I also blame how the community seems proud of spending a lot and getting diminishing results. The market sees how people are spending irresponsibily and know they can raise the price as much as they want.

At the end of the day, gaming on a PC ends up cheaper because you own everything, and a good computer makes your life so much easier outside of ganing. When on console, you are kind of forced to play by the company’s rule, at least if you don’t buy everything on the diminishing returns region instead of the cxb region.

Some require kernel level access, which is a big security risk.

I hope that shit spark interest in decoupling things, your whole project depending on a single tool is very dangerous, and foss engines should try to agree on some standards to discourage vendor lock-in.

I almost got it, but gave up because of the CEO being the way he is. It’s very likely that they will raise prices or add a lot of bullshit restrictions after initial adoption, and the dish is kind of expensive to buy and cancel once the bullshit starts.

Choosing the gender of the driver won’t give men any more safety, but it will make a lot of difference for women.

Don’t this mess with consumer laws ? People who had paid for this should definitely sue.

In US workers pay for commuting to work ?
