Yeah, but it’s more than 0 pennies each.

Wait so it’s just a design choice? I mean I get they were the first but really, who really cares about stuff like that?

I think we’re looking up at a drinks dispenser, one where you push your cup against the metal thing to start filling.

The “it’s more lean on resources” always seemed to me like a strawman people don’t like it came up with to diss on Gentoo.

Wait but isn’t being more lean a good thing? Or am I misunderstanding how they’re using that word?

It’s pretty nice, especially in combination with slurp which lets you select a part of the screen.

I have this mapped to my printscreen shortcut: grim -g "$(slurp)" - | wl-copy, which lets you select a part of the screen to screenshot, and copies the image to the clipboard.

I mean, if it’s just cosmetic, you really didn’t have to do anything, you chose to do that.

I’m not sure about the others, but I’m pretty sure Hitman isn’t linux native.

As far as I can find on protondb, neither are Deus Ex or Tomb Raider.

I’ve never had any issues running those games through Proton though, so that’s great.

Doesn’t really work when 99% of posts are marked undetermined.

tl;dr: bcachefs dev sent in a massive pull request, linus thinks it’s too big and touches too much other code for the current state of the release cycle, dev says his filesystem is the future and should just be merged

Proton drive has a photo backup option in the app, but their gallery thing is still lacking in features. You can’t edit or crop photos, and you can’t create albums and stuff like that. It’s really just a list of photos and nothing more.

The views are all just webviews. You can find all of the pages in the app/src/main/assets/pages folder, it’s all html and css.

Their package name is also still com.example, their target sdk doesn’t match their compile sdk, and also neither match with the target sdk in their AppManifest.xml.

So I’m guessing this is just someone who isn’t really familiar with java or native android views or something, so just decided to build it in something they do know instead.

Well that’s nice of them, now you can easily just change that password which of course you only use for one account.

Or you can just use a different, less biased search engine.

It says they support payments with the device, but if it doesn’t run android, so also no google wallet, did they actually develop their own payments platform?

That’s not the only issue, fat32 also has a hard limit on single file size. The largest a single file can be is 4GiB, and afaik you just can’t get around that with fat.

iirc, the way windows deals with this in its media creation tool is that it strips out locales and other things you don’t need, based on the options you selected previously, so the file ends up being small enough to fit.

Streaming is still cheaper than cable

That really depends on where you live. With my current provider here in the Netherlands, I would be paying 12.50 euros extra for TV.

Netflix standard is already more expensive than that at 13.99.

Wait why was iso not intended to be used like this? As far as I can see, it was always meant as a digital image of a CD, which is how it was used, and pretty much still is right?

iirc there was a reason you should use dd instead of directly copying the data, I think something to do with device block alignment or something?

No, the drive needs a boot partition for the bios to know there is something to be booted on the drive.

Most Linux ISO’s do properly include the partitions in the ISO, so you can clone the iso to a drive and that should work, using dd for example. But just copying the files won’t work.

iirc windows iso’s did use to support just creating a fat32 partition and moving all the files over, not sure how they managed that. But now the international ISO for win 11 has a file that’s more than the max 4Gb allowed by fat32, so you can’t do that anymore either.

I was curious if mistral is actually smart enough to complete that, but it keeps giving me blkid even though I told it, and it repeated back to me, that blk is the suffix, not the prefix.

Edit: now it thinks it’s an abbreviation for blockdev, which is closer, but also wrong got there eventually by asking it all unix commands that end with blk.
