@w84death I know you're the one writing the OS and I'm the one watching, but have you heard of the PROGMEM keyword in Arduino C++? It allows you to store data that would usually be in RAM in flash. (I see you tagged Clang though)

@arraybolt3 I decided to give Unity another chance some years ago, and installed it and ran it. It locked up (Not the OS; Unity froze). Well... 🤷‍♂️

@arraybolt3 My experience was one of lots of bugs and glitches. The concept was there, and I liked it, but the implementation was so bad, as I said, I went back to Windows. (This was early on in my Linux experience; I don't think I was really aware of "distros" and desktops at the time.)

@arraybolt3 Back when I first tried Linux, Unity was so bad I went back to Windows.
Ubuntu has gotten a lot better. I wonder how Unity is now.

Oh, today is my 8th anniversary of working on Mastodon. I was 23 when I started, finishing my last year of university, still living at my parent's place. I had no idea what I was getting myself into or that it would consume the next 8 years of my life almost completely.

With a bit of help from the next phosh-osk-stub release can (optionally) hide when a keyboard gets attached.

@agx Thinking to include little features like this are one of the main ways I judge the quality of software. Neat job!

@JoeRess I hear a lot of Linux people say to buy a Brother printer.

The next time someone will try to take over the world will be when a printer company makes a printer that actually works. All offices will instantly buy it to replace their printer-shaped objects they have for some reason and they instantly get rich

@NanoRaptor Wow, that's what I would always call "computer purple" right there! Like, *exactly*. What a coincidence. Hex values?
I like using it as a temporary color in themes, like for e.g. boxes that appear when you drag-and-drop to show you where what you are dragging will land.

@system76 I screen hinge on top of the body instead of diagonally on the back, in 2024? That's awesome!

@ActionRetro Nah! I was running Haiku on my friend's Ryzen 9 build the other week. Very... smooth

@codrusofathens They have to take their social media profiles very seriously to do that.

First clip after the title. I can't believe it, he began the move *before* his opponent was below him... crazy. Few can think like that, last stock high percent, AND in finals, no less (I think it was finals).

Check it out. The best player at our club was on again. Clip 2! youtu.be/rT8_wBy_ghA

Taking a game by using a recovery move downwards to kill off the bottom of the stage... gutsy. (Carguy, Sephiroth)
