I love the trackpads on my steam deck, but I think the best part is steam input. Having so much control on their behavior and being able to map various kinds of menus make them so powerful!

The same trackpads with shitty software wouldn’t be half as useful.

It’s at least misleading 😛

But I have to agree that for any non-math people this would convey the right idea, whereas “quadratic improvement” would probably not mean anything 🤷

Worst bugs usually hide in the most trivial causes 😭

TBH I’m not sure wider adoption would worsen things ? Gaming distros would probably ship bullshit anticheat modules by default while the others would not, or at most provide some documentation on how to opt in.

I think it’s quite similar to the situation with NVIDIA proprietary drivers? (I don’t own a graphics card so I’m not super aware on this topic)

I’ve just installed kopia on my home server. The web interface is super simple and it has exactly all the features I want (encryption, differential & retention tweaking).

It works with S3, so I pay less than a cent per GB for a cloud provider from my country. This pricing works best for me because I only backup about 20GB of data.

Back in ~2010, my first dual boot was an Ubuntu. It was fairly easy to run WoW from Linux and it gave me a solid >15fps while Windows ran at less than 10fps.

I was very young at the time but still aware that this was super impressive with extra compatibility layers. That definitely took part in selling Linux to me.

That’s exactly the solution from the article 👌

In the curl git repository most files and most content are plain old ASCII so we can “easily” whitelist a small set of UTF-8 sequences and some specific files, the rest of the files are simply not allowed to use UTF-8 at all as they will then fail the CI job and turn up red.

I think it’s worse at conveying the intention and should be a compile-time simplification (I’m too lazy to check if compilers would do it though).

I opened the topic while knowing there will be a ton of super enthusiastic and well-constructed answers. I’m not disappointed 🍿

I like the vanilla experience with no fear of breaking with an update.

Although as I’m still nerdy I do a lot of per-game tweaking for steam input and a few launch scripts for non-steam games. The desktop utility from steamgriddb is also awesome if you manually setup non-steam games.

I don’t think France tried to break E2E yet? Some political groups repeatedly submit law projects through the democratic process, but as long as it doesn’t pass I think the best we can say is that France is against.

C’mon, it’s 2025!

Plus, I don’t find slack super competitive in terms of features & usability.

I remember having a much better experience with mattermost.

So often 😭

I think I was thinking about desktop apps when I answered, but I feel out of context now 😬

Isn’t it about a web engine being roughly 60MB? 😕

Sadly I kept it private because it exposes a bit of my company’s network structure (with encrypted secrets, but still…) :/

It’s not the best experience though : the pencil doesn’t work as well as in Fedora (GNOME doesn’t detect tablet mode, which only seems to affect buttons behavior) and it recompiles the kernel everytime it needs to be updated (very often, so I pinned a version).

I’d say arch is a great distro if you love to tinker a lot and/or want to learn a lot about the Linux ecosystem. If you don’t recognize yourself in previous sentence I’d probably stick with fedora 🤷

I briefly used Fedora (Gnome) on my SP7 which worked super well. Then I moved to NixOS because I’m a nerd 🤓

I recall that the Rust book is awesome, it should cover everything essential! I don’t know the other two, but rustlings probably follows the same path and might be a good sidecar for exercising :)

Good luck in your journey!
