The movie’s name is Disobedience, in case someone else gets curious as well.

The video game ones do.

New Fedora Slimbook 14" joins the Fedora Slimbook 16" - Fedora Magazine (fedoramagazine.org)

We heard your feedback during the launch of the Fedora Slimbook 16 and, along with the folks from Slimbook, bring you the new Fedora Slimbook 14, a smaller, lighter, cheaper with even better battery life, version of the Fedora Slimbook, powered by an Intel CPU and GPU (unfortunetely no AMD version soon).

I have the regular 6 and Android 14 has been indeed shit. If I wasn’t waiting for 8 Pro I’d at least try factory reset but I don’t want to go through the setup process twice in a short period.

The sooner Android accepts RCS is dead, the sooner we can choose the next messaging platform that matters (www.androidpolice.com)

I’m just sitting here frustrated because I’m wanting my family to move away from messaging me over SMS (they mainly use iOS), but they refuse to download any extra apps. But Google’s RCS really doesn’t look like a solution either since it mainly just seems to be a way of enforcing Android as an ecosystem, and they...

It started turning shit a few months before the original owner sold it and went downhill since.

Price alert! Steam retro grab bag now available on Fanatical for $4.99! (www.fanatical.com)

Fanatical is going way out of left field with a selection of old school video games owned by Piko Interactive. They've been scooping up whatever abandoned IPs they can find from the 1990s, and most of these games from the island of misfit toys can be purchased in this collection for as little as fifty cents each....

what's the highest increase in salary you've had or seen?

I’m an 8 year data center network engineer who recently broke 100k for the first time. When I got asked my salary requirements I actually only asked for 90k as my highest previous salary was 80k with lots of travel, then I found out they gave me 100k because it was the minimum they could pay someone in my position.

I am not a developer but don’t they have to state the engine at the beginning of the game? Really no idea, just guessing, as I’ve seen a lot of games with it.

Same here with Sync. I didn’t know what was happening as I was able to access beehaw via web, so I tried other apps. Voyager and Thunder crashed too. Looks like it was a beehaw issue as other accounts on other instances worked.

Well the source is semi accurate.

1984,
@1984@beehaw.org avatar

Which ones do you recommend?

I would start with the adapter itself. Many times the cheaper ones are crap.

Maybe I’m in the minority here, but I’m not a huge fan of the recent trend of guns and firing in mainstream video games. Besides the janky awkwardness of polygons, there’s something off-putting to me about my character engaging in deadly combat. Am I supposed to be pretending that it’s me as I watch the action happening? When I play a game (esp. an RPG) I can get really immersed in the experience and feel like the mouse/controller is an extension of my hand, shooting fireballs and whatnot. So is it also supposed to be an extension of my weapon when my character starts killing? Am I supposed to be fully engaged for maximum immersion?

In movies, it’s different because when a character in a movie engages in deadly combat, the audience understands that they’re watching someone else do it. I’ve never seen a movie where I’m supposed to pretend like I’m the main character and I’m the one doing the killing. (Hardcore Henry notwithstanding)

I have nothing against action-packed games or games with mature content as their own thing, but encountering it in a regular game always throws me out of the immersion. Coming from a mainstream studio, it also just feels like a desperate attempt to appeal to a certain audience more than anything else, even if it’s nothing more than a short murder.

How the fuck can I kill 20 hours?

My 13 hour flight just got delayed 7 hours, I’m stuck at my second airport, and I dont think I’m gonna make it. I have some movies and audio books on my phone, but really only anticipated having to burn the flight time via napping and some media, not 7 hours leading up to it, and I’m pretty sure I’m gonna mentally burn...

1984,
@1984@beehaw.org avatar

I second this, Vampire survivors will kill 20 hours easily. I only got into it a month ago, purely because I have heard so much about it, and I like it as time killer, but also had a lot of fun with it.

Looks great but it’s too minimal for me.

I do like minimalism but not everywhere. Here I’d like automatic location, saving multiple locations as favorites, and maybe a simple widget.

I see Google Drive, Gmail, Google Messages on screenshots so it does come with bloatware.

I can’t do that on my side, perhaps because it’s a system app on my Pixel phone? Or do I need to be rooted for that?

Jitsi, the open-source video conferencing platform, now requires a Google, Microsoft, or Facebook account for their online service. - Beehaw (beehaw.org)

While Jitsi is open-source, most people use the platform they provide, meet.jit.si [http://meet.jit.si], for immediate conference calls. They have now introduced a “Know Your Customer” policy and require at least one of the attendees to log in with a Facebook, Github (Microsoft), or Google account. If you prefer not to...

@1984@beehaw.org avatar

If you rely on a single service this much you should either pay for it or selfhost.

Edit: What I wrote might sound aggressive but I don’t mean it in a bad way. I understand your concern, just wanted to point out that one should be ready for free (or any for that matter) services completely changing direction, conditions, or getting decommissioned.

Does Apple really support right to repair? Lewis Rossmann is extremely skeptical. (youtu.be)

Apple is one of the worst companies about being able to repair products. They’ve gotten several bills failed or neutered to not do anything. We don’t know yet, but they are likely trying for a neutering amendment here to keep control over the process. I’d love to be proven wrong, but all we have to go on is prior...

1984,
@1984@beehaw.org avatar

Serious question - what’s the appeal of this guy? I have watched a few of his videos and he seems like a regular person (outside of being known for repairing Apple stuff). Not that there’s anything wrong with that, and in this particular case his opinion is worth a lot as it is his area of expertise, I just don’t understand how he has to have an opinion on everything and people follow it as gospel.

FYI, in the future, if there’s a screenshot like this, and it includes a terminal with output like the one on the bottom right, you can see the name of the distribution in there. The tool that displays output like that is neofetch(or any other variation of it), with ASCII art on the left and system info on the right.
