So there’s a lot of text under the criticism section, And I’m sure my argument against it is nothing new, but wouldn’t the operation and monitoring of the door take some energy? Even in a “friction less spherical cow” perfect world, removing the cost of operating the door seems to be a bit of a stretch.

What are the arguments for it really?

I’ve never quite gotten into wine either. I like most stouts and porters. Bit anything too hopy in my bear and it’s going in the sink. Shame with the whole IPA revolution going on. Other than that cider and cocktails are the only thing I really enjoy consuming. Everything from the sweet Swedish Briska to the most fermented fresh pressed apple cider goes down without much problem.

Oh the battery status would be handy, thanks for the tip!

My wooting keyboard’s management software has an official appimage that works perfectly fine.

The same can’t be said for the Logitech Pro Superlight. I honestly haven’t tried running G Hub under wine. But having a quick look around there seems to be pretty straight forward solutions out there to program Logitech devices.

Oh, that sounds cool! What is it you tune? I imagine some coil whine from heating elements maybe?

I honestly feel silly for not having looked up a solution like it earlier.

I got a couple of apps I’d recommend in a heartbeat.

Spectdroid is a spectrogram app. Its unreasonable how often I’m using this app. I got some mild tinnitus that comes and goes and this app allows me to find out if I got some actual weird buzzing I’m the house or if it’s just in my head.

And LocalSend is an amazing app for sending files between various devices and OSes over a local network. I no longer need to set up file shares, plug in my phone to a computer, or use cloud storage just to transfer over some files.

Do I understand it right that it’s a free replacement of the still copyrighted game assists such as textures and models, and not the code itself? I’m curios if the level design wouldn’t also fall into this.

Huh. I did as well. Like /use/bin was for user installed applications and such. You learn something everyday.

Yeah the issue is I wouldn’t want to compromise quality too much. But I might just start saving up now for whatever valve is cooking up next :) Another issue with using a quest is that you have to run the occulus app (when wired), eating up some of that sweet precious VRAM.

I got a Quest 3 that I use with a USB-c cable. Price is great but having to fiddle around with video compression settings on top of all other VR settings has proven to be a bit tedious. I’m still trying to figure out what pcvr headset to go for that won’t complete drain my bank account (there’s probably tons of used ones out there).

Glad to hear VR is possible and getting better on Linux though!

Oh what’s your Linux setup for VR? I thought it was very janky still? Once I get my storage server set up I was planing on moving fully to windows except for a small drive for VR titlea.

Evan Williams - I’ll Stick Around.

I don’t often think artists are criminally underrated, but man this guy is so good, with a painfully low number of listeners on Spotify.

I discovered him through the Hi Ren video. He is so fucking good.

Thanks for asking, made me go look again. I had mixed up Lemmy.world owner Ruud and the creator of Lemmy itself and admin of lemmy.ml. Ruud seems chill, lemmy.ml less so.

There’s a bit of choice paralasys when joining Lemmy. Even if you know how the fediverse works you won’t have knowledge of the culture and relationships of different instances.

I joined Lemmy.world because it advertises itself as the vanilla flavour of the fediverse, so it makes it an easy pick for someone like me who didn’t quite understand how it all hangs together.

But I do agree with you, and I’m looking to migrate after some concerning things have come up about the lemmy.world owner.

Edit: confused the owner of lemmy.world and lemmy.ml.

Hence why they said with constant copying to new hardware.

Though historically you could say the same with old written text, they could also be copied but humans are lazy and not very good at future proofing. One day the Vatican library will go up in smoke and we’ll have once again lost some of our history.

Last time I checked codium out it couldn’t support the vs code marketplace/plugin repo. Is this still the case? I should take another look at it either way though :)

Edit: I answered my own question by reading some more comments. So looks like there are alternative plugin registries. I’ll definitely have a go at switching now.

Just to add my two pennies (that’s a saying, right?), I do use VS code as my default text editor. Professionally and for other projects in C++/C# I use the full fat visual studio. But for scripting, config editing, hex files, todo lists and such I use Code.

I’ve never been much of a person who needs to shave off every possible second in my workflow with macros and plugins, my brain is just not fast enough to out pace my hands, and the command palette does pretty much all I could wish for.

I of course wish it was fully open source, but for being the only Microsoft product I daily it isn’t too bad.

You sound more confident than you maybe should :P
