I heard that people were against #systemd because of its bloat. Maybe they're right after all, looks like it's got its own 3D engine now!
(jokes aside, everything seems to point to it being #kwin getting misreported for some reason, but nevertheless, this sight has left me seriously confused at first)
@centigames The left one, obviously. It's clearly better at the game.

Happy to report that my first PCB layout is barely started and already an unworkable mess. It's quite fun to figure #KiCad out on my own with no tutorials though, the only thing I had to look up so far was how to move a component to the other board side 😁
@godotengine @nixCraft Now all you need is to drop gdwlroots onto it to make it an actual functional desktop environment 😄️
Cryptocurrency people are so funny. Recently someone with deep pockets spent six-figures embedding 9MB of encrypted data into the BTC blockchain.
I read a write-up about it one some website dedicated to cryptocurrency, and the author was especially impressed with the fact that encrypted data cannot be decrypted without a key. He noted that "not even ChatGPT could decrypt it".
Of course Cryptocurrency people don't understand cryptography... That's why they buy pretend internet money.
@pecet Na PC: pierwszy kontakt to też któryś Knoppix, ale chyba tylko bootowany z płyty. Potem po kolei: Mandrake 10.1, Mandriva 2006, Ubuntu 6.06, Debian sid, Arch.
Na telefonie: OpenMoko 2007.2, SHR, Maemo 5, PureOS 9.
Na serwerach: zawsze i tylko Debian 🤪️
@b0rk #1 doesn't make any sense and easily falls apart at edge cases, if you think this way you'll sooner or later make yourself confused; #2 can be useful when reasoning or talking about repo topology as a kind of mental shortcut (and actually applies to any commit, not just those pointed to by branches); #3 is the truth.
@foone Designed for single density, but can be pushed to double density under right conditions
@williamtries @LeoDJ @techbeard @dylanvanassche 15W is enough for that
A short look back at what happened around #phosh in 2023:
@panic @colingourlay It's an interesting hardware that I'd definitely spend time making fun games for, as that's just what I do with other platforms. I've been eyeing this one since the very beginning, it could be neat for game jams. However, this platform lacks an essential feature - that feature being "an acceptable license". Life is simply too short to waste on proprietary platforms, for many reasons - both philosophical and practical.
@panic @colingourlay For starters, not making the platform essentially dead when the rights owner goes down would be nice. Nobody else can host a copy of the SDK.
Then, not having to require my users to use non-free software in order to modify, compile and deploy my projects would be appreciated as well.
Last but not least, all software is buggy and SDKs are not an exception. When I stumble upon a bug in it, I should be able to inspect it, debug, fix and share the fix with others.
@panic @colingourlay So yup, it's sadly still non-free: non-redistributable, non-modifiable and prohibiting development of other SDKs.
