@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org (Itās either that, or the fact that itās womenās football and ānobody wants to see that anywayā.)
In all fairness, GOG says that Forsaken is only supported on Ubuntu 16.04 ā not current Arch Linux. If you ask me, this just goes to show that Linux is not a good platform for proprietary binary software.
Is it free software, do you have the source code? Then youāre good to go, things can be patched/updated (that can still be a lot of work). But proprietary binary blobs? Very bad idea.
I bought the āremasteredā versions of Grim Fandango and Forsaken on GOG, because theyāre super cheap at the moment. Both have native Linux versions.
And both these Linux version crap their pants. 𫤠The bundled SDL2 of Forsaken says it ācanāt find a matching GLX visualā and I couldnāt figure out how to fix that. I didnāt spend a lot of time on Grim Fandango.
Both work great in Wine. š¤¦
(I do have the original version of Grim Fandango from the 1990ies, but that one does not work so well in Wine. I figured, if itās so cheap, why not. And I now get to play the english version. š The german dub is pretty damn good, actually, but I always prefer the original these days.)
Iām trying to think of what topic to bitch abt for my next video no one asked for š¤
How you can tell a āreview postā on some random website was written by AI?
Ergonomically nicer than its binocular counterpart
How exactly is this a reason to avoid?! š¤¦āāļø
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I have to say, this sounds much worse than our stuff at work. š«© (We donāt use any Microsoft services, at least not for core tools.)
Okay, now this is a very interesting Rust feature:

This (and inline assembly) makes Rust really interesting for very low-level stuff. š„³

I hear you, @movq@www.uninformativ.de! :ā-(
At work, too. For a few weeks now when I try to log into this horrible Outlook web intershit (Because why would they fix the Evolution integration?! Itās cactus for well over a year now. Probably more like two.), it forwards me to the corporate weblogin, I enter my credentials, even do the bloody MFA crap and get redirected back to Outlook. āLoading mailboxā¦ā āPlease wait for us to log you out, do not close this window while this process is underway.ā Fuck you! I have to delete the cookies for this damn domain each and every fucking time. Otherwise, this goes in circles forever. I tried the game for 15 minutes, no joke.
But wait, thereās more! Why just fuck it up only a little bit? This week I get logged out at the middle of the day. Every. Single. Day. Not even close to eight hours since I started, no. What the hell!? I reckon I just donāt even bother reauthenticating anymore in the arvo. No more e-mails for Lyse after lunch. Fuck it. Itās just distraction, anyway, right?!
It wasnāt all that busy tonight. Maybe also 500 fireflies, but the route was longer. Not sure if I accidentally kicked a frog or toad one and a half meters away or whether it jumped on its own. It was too dark to see properly out of the corner of my eye. :-(
It took about a year, I think, but Iāve now finished another run of Tomb Raider I, II, and III. And I have, for the first time, played the two bonus packs āUnfinished Businessā (for TR I) and āGolden Maskā (for TR II). Theyāre available as a free download, if you have the original games. (The bonus pack for TR III is not free.)
I just love these games ā and the game mechanics. Itās just the right balance between challenging and relaxing.
What kind of half-assed nonsense is this? They only broadcast half of the current european soccer cup ⦠(Let me guess, Iām supposed to subscribe to some streaming service if I want to watch every game, right?)
This aggressive auto-logout on my bankās website ā¦
Dude, you want me to print something, sign it, and scan it back in. This takes forever and Iāll have to re-login a dozen times. Narf.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Uffpuh. Es Wetter spielt verrückt. š«¤
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Willsch a bissle Eis schlotza? https://www.tagesschau.de/inland/regional/badenwuerttemberg/swr-schwere-hagelgewitter-weisse-strassen-in-sipplingen-100.html
@prologic@twtxt.net That too, yeah. š„“š©
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Because we keep fucking with the planetās environment and climate patterns? š¤
@prologic@twtxt.net Bah! Why canāt we all have mild weather. š„²
Is des Ƥni Hitz!
Weāre feeling some pretty intense winds up here in Brisbane too right on the outer edge which are exceeding 100 km an hour winds š¤£
Feeling a bit bad for the folks and Coffs Harbor and on the coast of Sydney right now š¤Æ
The lid is on and the first saw brackets are done. Letās see how impractical they are. I might have to add heavy chamfers to better guide them in.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @bender@twtxt.net I never saw that. Neither the website nor the logo. I like the old one more, although I have to admit the story behind the new one is actually really cool: https://www.sudo.ws/about/logo/
I didnāt manage to leave the house yesterday. But when I went into the woods this evening, activity first was 10% of what it had been the day before yesterday. By the end it got a lot busier, about 50% of last time I reckon. Around 500 fireflies Iād imagine. I might have been faster than the days before. When I left the forest, I was right in the fog, that was cool.
Shortly after, I saw another lightshow. Right behind the Wasserberghaus somewhere on the Swabian Alp there was very crazy heat lightning every 5-10 seconds. That looked absolutely amazing. :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net Heey⦠Welcome back!! š«” How was the trip? I Hope youāve had a good time!
@prologic@twtxt.net I like the last two, on the first three you sent. I looked up āCanarvon Gorgeā, and read more about it. Thanks for introducing me to it!
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Hahaha, I love them! :-D
@prologic@twtxt.net This looks really nice! I love the view. For a brief second, the rock in the left bottom corner of the first photo reminded me of a croc tail. These are some massive cliffs, I get the impression that walking down there feels cool during the heat. Yeah, itās winter over there, but it cooled me off by just looking at it. :-) Oh no, somebody lost their hat.
A few moreā¦
As promised, hereās some photos of love you!! camping trip to Canarcon George in QLD, Australia.
Heck yeah, Iāve been a firefly taxi again! \o/ One landed on my hiking boot and rode along a few meters. It then took off on its own without me having to help it. I saw easily a thousand glowing individuals tonight, bloody cool. :-)
Ted Unangstās snarky (and entertaining) remarks this month:
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I first wondered how the lists could be ever improved, but then b.png shows the better approach with the inset boxes on the left. No surprises there. Very clearly communicated.
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ah! I see there is now some competition going on between the Tux avatars. ;-)
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Thatās an interesting concept I never heard of before. Though, as a German, my data protection kicks in. ;-)
These are lists in your Inkscape example, right?
The font stuff? Yeah, thatās a scrollable list where you can select the current font.
Someone did a thing:
https://social.treehouse.systems/@ariadne/114763322251054485
Iāve been silently wondering all the time if this was possible, but never investigated: Keep doing X11 but use Wayland as a backend.
This uses XWaylandās ārootfulā mode, which basically just gives you a normal Wayland window with all the X11 stuff happening inside of it:
https://www.phoronix.com/news/XWayland-Rootful-Useful
In other words, put such a window in fullscreen and you (more or less) have good old X11 running in a Wayland window.
(For me, personally, this wonāt be the way forward. But itās a very interesting project.)
we should bring back XFN that is the cutest shit in the world i want to link to my friends and have the internet know they are my friends through the markup!!!!!!!!!!!
@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club so real lol
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org iāve been playing with h-card stuff lately! got one marked up and validated with indiewebifyme and it all checks out :D you can see it on my about page at the bottom
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Which one(s) are you looking right now?
Woops, sorry if my Pod was offline for a few days, I hadnāt checked and needed to renew the domain xP
guys microformats are so fun
@prologic@twtxt.net hello!!!
@prologic@twtxt.net Oh cool, completely disconnected is the best! Looking forward to the photos. :-)
