I use

• Vitals
• blur my shell

Blur my shell is make gnome look pretty good IMO.

What does this have to do with linux phones?

Standard Debian packages have access to things like your home folder and other things that can be accessed without superuser level access. If you’re not okay with that, don’t install it.

If a flatpak package is available, it can have it’s permissions controlled by Flatseal, allowing you to restrict Spotify’s permissions.

I feel like Mariokart 8 made good use of the gamepad: it could act as a mirror of the TV or it could display non-essential info like a map and what items each player has.

I think the meme is suggesting that 3 hours was spent setting up a local llm, like in This video.

The people editing their images in Blender are the same people who edit their videos in Blender lol.

At least where I live, the city centre was built and designed around walking and public transit, but then the city destroyed those streets to make way for cars. If the city were to reverse those changes and build back areas designed for walking and cycling, it would result in a much better city centre, without any drastic restructuring.

TIL that Nintendo designed the usb-c port not to be compatible. Fuck them for that.

Steam still needs more competition IMO. If Steam were to disappear tomorrow, the gap left in the PC gaming market would be massive.

The best way to touch Nintendo products is with a soldering iron - to install a modchip.

In 2006 they bundled Wii Sports with the Wii, which seemed to benefit them considering the Wii’s success. Though, the Switch 1 had a the demo “1, 2, Switch” for 60 USD and sold better than the Wii, though culturally, more people probably know about Wii Sports compared to 1, 2, Switch.

It was the eyes that gave it away for me. They look, just, wrong.

There is a GUI program called “envision” which makes setup pretty easy, since it will also setup additional components for you.

That’s why most people who use VR on Linux don’t use SteamVR and instead use Monado, like I do. Monado is FOSS as well.

No? Have a look at LVRA, many headsets are supported, and IMO using Monado is better than SteamVR…

I bough Farcry 5 for around $10 CAD a few years back and that’s about how much value I got put of it.

The Environment Canada weather forecasts are pretty barebones

I’m going to have to disagree with you on that. I actually really like how Environment Canada presents their forecasts. They have a text description for each day, which I like because it shows how much data they actually have about the forecast for that day. Also, no ads and no bullshit on their website.

Intel is almost flawless, I say as someone who uses an Intel A750. It does have a bug where putting load on the GPU causes a dramatic increase in latency for GPU compute tasks, but that’s mostly only important for VR. Flatscreen games work great.

Yup, I was looking in the wrong section. This will make great ammunition when convincing people not to use Meta services.

We do allow allegations of mental illness or abnormality when based on gender or sexual orientation, given political and religious discourse about transgenderism and homosexuality

Where can this carve-out be found? I looked at their Code of conduct for bullying and harassment and did notice that harassment related to gender only seems to be protected for “private minors” and not for adults.
