On the other hand, players are incredibly attatched to existing IP and franchises, and very very fickle on "new" studios taking on their beloved franchises. I.e. when Halo moved from Bungie …

wanted to disagree, but then noticed that the open source Desktops I think look good all sort of operate under that umbrella, like Gnome and elementary all have very strict design guidelines.

While this may be true, if they manage to unionize they might lessen some of those negatives in the future, and I really hope for them that they'll pull through!

Kinda Off-topic, but if anyone is looking to play around with building vr spaces or games, i recently found out about LÖVR[0] which is a sipmle lua-based open source VR "framework". Haven&#x…

whenever you sign up for some one-time use trash, use support@oracle.com as your email to get them back :)

Meta: I always really like HN Threads about DAWs, a lot of people with a ton of knowledge and good recomendations tend to show up :)

Huh? I was about to comment the exact opposite, I was super impressed by how smooth it was! And that's running on a 3 year old low-end ryzen 3 laptop processor, on firefox in fedora.

The PineNote ( https://www.pine64.org/2021/08/15/introducing-the-pinenote/ ) looks like it could really be a good competitor to the remarkable, if software support…

Whoops - appears I overreacted in this specific case, the feature just seems to be moving to the firefox app on Android, didn't catch that from the announcement.

This sucks. From the outside, Mozilla management just seems incompetent, killing good product after good product while not launching anything worthwhile to replace them.

If there's a terminal command to change the layouts, you could bind those to specific hotkeys in the normal gnome settings.

Get some KZs! They're a good place to start for cheap ones with replaceable cables, I'd recommend the zsn pro or DQ6 for inexpensive ones.

Enable the annoyances filters in ublock origin settings, gets rid of a lot of them, but not all

How does it compare when opening two windows side by side? Is there still enough horizontal screen real estate for things like a browser and a code editor to still be able to see enough content on bot…

Briar always seems awesome, but wouldn't this only work if there's people with the app installed / nodes every few meters because bluetooth's range is relatively small?

Oh, I'm not talking about the DG1, but the lower end of the upcoming Arc series, like the 96EU version in the table lower on this page: https://wccftech.com/intel-arc-alchemist-hi…

The $200 to $300 GPU market! That market segment has been disappointing since 2018 or so, the last truly good card in that segment was the RX 480.

While this is exciting, the thing I'm most looking forward to is intel entering the dedicated GPU market next year. Arc is looking really promising and god knows nVidia and AMD need some disrupti…

I really liked the storytelling in Hypnospace Outlaw, where you're just an onlooker to a pseudo-internet and can learn details from peoples' pages and mannerisms.
