  • Thanks for the answer.

    That’s good to be aware of. I was also kinda put a back by a github issue raised by someone who could no longer toggle off auto updates with ujust.

    It got solved by them adding the command back, just to be silently broken again by them renaming and subsequently removing it again (still removed as far as I’m aware).

    Weird first impression on how quickly things are broken with no alternative.





  • The way they’re doing it actually seems way better in my opinion.

    Steam’s userbase is big enough, there’s likely always an exact system out there that’s shared fps for the game you want and with that info you can know (with some margin for error) how it’ll run for you.

    Game minimum requirements aren’t always accurate in my experience and I’m guessing they list actual components rather than specs of said component because two chips with the same cores/ghz can perform quite differently nowadays, so they leave it to the consumer to validate (might not be easy or possible to calculate this type of thing programatically im not sure).


  • I agree on Cyberpunk, though I still played like 20hrs.

    I finished a mission and just realised I couldn’t be bothered driving to the next one and blah blah blah and just closed the game for the final time right then.

    First time I’ve been playing a game and that had happened.

    I guess the game might still be worth it’s sale price at 50% off if you can get 20 hours out of it, but it’s still disappointing in my eyes that It wasn’t able to keep me engaged.


  • I’m not gonna have an opinion, but I’d like to say that it sounds harsh to exclude someone based on other people being weird, no?

    I don’t know if you need a male-only space or a normal-person space (probably the latter).

    That being said, I could maybe see how people may not want to make certain jokes in front of certain people, but if youre just having fun and youre not racist or something um idk







  • Dumbest thing in software imo, is when I see software that is obviously worthy of being out of v0 (beta, alpha, etc), stay in v0.

    Though since it still is v0, I guess we can’t expect much.

    Not sure why it is, maybe there is a good reason, but the software functions well enough for a stable release, though at the same time, this is a very small scale operation with great ambitions and a big userbase. If you api needs to be updated, it’s obviously much easier to just push a breaking change than to maintain a migration period.

    There’s a lot of nuance, but I’d like more software to just enter v1 when it works as intended and then breaking changes can increment the major version rather than staying in v0 which is harder to tell when a breaking change happens.

    p.s. so far config changes in hyprland have only been a 5 min fix so i haven’t experienced this fuss yet, maybe soon!


  • Sounds weird they are mixing work and pleasure on the same machine, but anyways +1 for dual boot.

    VMs haven’t been a great experience for me if you need to get real work done.

    I’ve been dual booting on one drive for years, never experienced any issues. Heard doing it on separate drives is even better though.

    Probably extra points if your linux partitions are encrypted.




  • Punchable is a bit far, probably wanna tone it down a bit, big guy.

    Just kidding, but it’s only funny and also is it this guys fault?

    I don’t even know if it’s true, but in any case, the guy who tasked a react (native) developer on the start menu is responsible (not the developer).

    Example: If I managed a product and hired a python developer and told them to do x, they would likely use python, right? (In this scenario, It is I the manager wjo failed everyone, not the developer).

    Also the other commenter is correct. It’s like the common saying “use the right tool for the job”. The saying doesn’t make sense, because the right tool is always the one you know how to use…
