Of course!

Well, do still consider how other addicts might feel judged when they realize you quit. It will make them uncomfortable and they’ll have to make up excuses.

It might sour your relationship with people who enjoyed using it with you.

Why don’t you start with cocaineless Mondays?

How about solidarity with other addicts? If they see you quit, they will feel pressured to also quit, have you thought about that?

I did not realize in advance how much my quitting would hurt the other addicts.

Not quitting fully (either still using on some days or only fully quitting the least popular parts of the addiction) seems to console them a bit.

It’s a tradeoff you’ll have to make: do you

• … make other addicts slightly uncomfortable by quitting?
• … or continue to harm your health, low-wage workers’ mental wellbeing, destroy nature and the climate, contribute to pandemic risk and unnecessarily hurt the animals you consume?

It’s not an easy choice.

In my first month with the Deck, I have mostly played:

• Death Stranding
• Red Faction: Guerrilla
• GRID (2008)

And the hilarious tech demo of course!

I’m really happy with how well Death Stranding works and really see myself finishing it now that I can play it on commute. Love that game but it never fit my schedule (at the desk, I always played flight sims in VR or just a very quick shooter session).

Red Faction and GRID are easy enough on the battery, especially at 40 fps, and not too fussy about controls so they feel good with a controller (I felt a bit handicapped in Dirt Rally 2 and Project Cars 2).

In terms of emulation, I installed RetroDeck and tried Gran Turismo PSP but found that hard with the large stick and no analog controls for accelerate/brake Just putting some PS1 and PS2 games on it now, let’s see if those will be able to bump GRID and Red Faction from my frequented list:

• Metal Gear Solid 1,2 and 3
• Gran Turismo 4

People, don’t downvote! Look at the instance David’s on. nl is Netherlands. That’s us. We are nazi europe. The fascists are in government here in .nl, with a party that has only one member.

That is forbidden in Germany btw. I always like asking Dutch fascists why they think that party structure is forbidden in Germany specifically. Watch them realize they have to link the way their party is organized to WW2.

@[email protected] I second Bitflip’s comment.

F-droid repos are amazing and a must-have, but the default F-droid front-end is not the most user-friendly.

I have been very happy with the Droidify front-end, as have other F-droid users to whom I recommended it.

You can get Droidify using F-Droid, of course.

PPSSPP: I initially installed it because my PSP Go was failing and corrupting my save files.

Dumping all the PSP files onto a pc and loading one save with PPSSPP, fixed all the saves. Then I put them back on the PSP to continue my Gran Turismo career while commuting on the train.

It was mind-boggling to me that the emulator could fix the original console. Of course, it also does all kinds of upscaling, double framerate, etc.

After this happened twice though, I replaced the PSP with a Steam Deck. Sadly, the large stick on the Deck has caused me some trouble with controlling the higher end cars. PSP has no analog triggers, so all the finesse is in the flick of the ministick. I should load up GT4 (PS2) on the Deck soon. And MGS 1 through 3. Am very happy playing GRID (2008) and Death Stranding for now though.

Yes, you are right.

The old stuff, now no longer supported, is:

• .NET Framework up to and incl version 4.8
• Runtimes distributed as part of Windows
• Mono is a Linux Runtime used for compatibility

The new stuff:

• .NET Core, up to and incl 3, more recent versions are named .NET from version 5 onwards (to prevent mixing it up with the old Framework)
• Is completely cross-platform, natively
• I don’t know about desktop specific graphical stuff but that probably depends on the specific library

Les cars de longue distance sont dans quelques pays même plus environnementale que les TGV, n’ont pas besoin d’infrastructure specifique, et sont le mode de transport le plus economique, permettant chacun de faire des voyages en Europe.

Mais parce qu’ils n’ont pas le niveau de comfort que Mr. Gregoire aimerait, il ose de les appeler “pas dignés”.

Je ne suis pas francais, donc excusez moi pour la langue. “Qu’ils mangent de la brioche”. Il y a pas l’espace dans les trains, c’est la realite economique.

Parlez…

Check CompassRed’s comment above.

The definition part of the wikipedia article has a table with these “nice relationships for addition and scaling”. You will see that they also hold for many kinds of functions, such as polynomials and other more abstract things than points and directions in 2D or 3D. N-dimensional vectors for example, or using complex numbers, or both.

Ah yeah that looks perfect, just get WayBlue Hyprland then! That sounds like exactly what you need.

No need to mess about with user services in systemd and display manager config.

NixOS

Alternatively (speculating here), you might be able to use Nix to install Hyprland onto an existing immutable distro like Silverblue.

Nix people please chime in!

Good point. I guess you’re right, there are no flattering roles. But each of those options you list would have been less on top of existing prejudices.

Making her the (non-technical) project manager whose only contribution is “how many story points is that?”, who’s then silenced because “this is important!”, confirms the typical prejudices about women in tech:

• no technical expertise
• is not in charge
• does not have anything to say that is worth listening to in times of crisis

Especially being talked over. This matches many women’s experiences in men-dominated environments to a T.

I’d much rather the technically competent, important but socially weird engineer (Jared) be the woman, or the incompetent boss, who’s in charge and calls the shots. Even having no women in the skit would be better than this Cindy role.

Or, weird idea I know, multiple people with different roles being women. 🙄

I understand your frustrations and I hope you can find people who (100% honest) are more mature than that, and have a happier and more positive attitude.

This whole “I am so mature” alleged superiority vibe stinks of teenage insecurity. You can do better than that.

We all get frustrated with scrum at times, but not all of us use TTS to make a casually sexist skit about it.

It’s a cool story, but the article is a bit messy.

Took me a while to understand what happened around 1990 and what happened recently.

I was also surprised to learn that El País employs time travellers:

In addition, the protected area contains the old Stramba amber mine, known as one of the most productive during the first half of the 21st century, but which was closed down by the communist regime as it was considered unprofitable.
