I take my shitposts very seriously.

  • She is a member of a nonhuman species that evolved on a planet with low gravity. They evolved in a way that makes then physiologically incompatible with the gravity that most other species experience. It's an example of how a person's level of physical ability and required accommodation often depend on the environment. It also challenges the viewer to reconsider whether she should be treated like a disabled person.

  • Alleged Steam Machine specs according to Chris Mizo (edit: was already shared by valve themselves)

    Jump

  • Nobody knows the final retail price. Probably not even Valve. Educated guesses are in the 600-1200 USD range. Valve have already said that it wouldn't be a loss leader, and that they'd made painful sacrifices to ensure an affordable price.

  • ‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says Only Package Manager Where This Regularly Happens

    Jump

  • Today I had to build and install an application using Crates. It recursively pulled 700 other packages and gave me a gut feeling comparable to testicular torsion. I don't care how paranoid the community is, it only takes one careless maintainer to node-ipc or left-pad an entire dependency tree.

  • Help me choose a <€70 controller with Linux compatibility. 🙏️

    Jump

  • Yes, it's recognised as a controller both in non-Steam games and in other applications like KDE Settings. It works just like any other controller with the usual, quasi-standard inputs (analog sticks, face buttons, etc). Steam support regarding non-Steam games:

    Everything should work as intended if you have purchased and launched your game directly through Steam, but in many cases you will also be able to use the Controller with non-Steam games that run independently.

    I’ve heard the argument that it is recognized as a KBM if you’re not on Steam.

    If Steam isn't running and there are no other games that capture the controller input, the SC enters "lizard mode" where it emulates mouse and certain keyboard inputs. The right touchpad becomes a mouse, the left touchpad becomes a scroll wheel, R2 is left click, L2 is right click, A is Enter, B is Escape; wev displays the correct input events. Lizard mode is disabled when you launch a game.

    (edit) It sounds like this only works in Linux. Windows needs a separate utility to use the SC with non-Steam games.

    (edit 2) This is what KDE reports:

    It can detect the back buttons (Paddle 1-4) and the quick access menu (Miscellaneous). hid-recorder also shows that all other inputs are also available through the /dev/hidraw* device. I wouldn't be surprised at all if someone released a standalone Steam Input emulator app within a few weeks.

  • That's not true. If you don't use Steam Input, you only lose the Steam-specific inputs, like the touchpads, gyro, grip sense, and back buttons. Otherwise it is pretty much equivalent to a modern Xbox controller:

    • Two analog stick inputs
    • Analog triggers (LT/RT)
    • Digital bumpers and stick buttons (LB/RB, LS/RS)
    • D-pad
    • Face buttons
    • Menu/select/guide buttons

    I've played a lot of Project Wingman with it, and the TMR inputs are actually a massive improvement.

  • XDG Desktop files are a mostly standardized way to integrate individual programs into the desktop. For example, a desktop file in /usr/share/applications or ~/.local/share/applications can add programs to the application launcher, both desktop launcher menus and separate apps like dmenu-run; or they can be used to start applications when the desktop session starts by placing them in ~/.config/autostart.

    Desktop files can also set properties related to an application. In this particular case, the MimeType field tells the desktop session what MIME types should be associated with the application. For example, my desktop file for Blender associates the application/x-blender MIME type with it, which causes Blender to show up in the Open with... dialog.

    The MimeType field is a semicolon-separated list. One desktop file can define multiple associated MIME types for the same application. Krita instead creates a separate file for each association.

  • If I have to install Windows on a machine (mostly work-related), I always use Chris Titus' WinUtil to strip out the garbage bits and delay or completely stop updates. It's basically a GUI wrapper around various Powershell commands.

  • Plex’s price hikes prove I was right to switch to Jellyfin

  • You grossly overestimate the number of people who are both willing and able to deploy, secure, manage, and maintain this kind of infrastructure. You may not find any value in offloading these responsibilities to a service provider operated by trained professionals, but your outright refusal to acknowledge that other people might is nothing short of callous.
