Vampire Survivors completely drew me in this year.
A couple of years ago, I was having dreams of designing train lines in Cities Skylines. A couple of days ago I was having a dream of weapon combos in Vampire Survivors. That's how you spot a good and influential game.
Oh content from this blog has been popping up in random places. Methinks it's le epic trole.
So yeah, Xfce looks the same as it did 10 years ago.
And?
Desktop environment is meant to launch apps and give me windows and maybe have a file manager. Xfce does that. It's a desktop environment.
Hey, "modern" desktop environment enthusiasts, if you bring Compiz back from the dead, give us luddites a call, will you? Ohhhh you kids should have seen it back in the day. Windows and Mac users saw Compiz in action and were, like, "wat." You don't get them to react that way to modern Linux desktops, no. And all that is lost now. Thanks Wayland.
I love watching Let's Plays of Telltale games and similar games like Life is Strange. But usually, the first episode is hardest to watch through, because in these types of games, the first episode also serves as a very drawn out tutorial and has the most of the lore dumps.
Louis Armstrong doesn't need a website. He's been dead for 50 years, and the recording industry very much doesn't want you to think too hard about the fact that they're still somehow allowed to rake in hell of a lot of cash.
Yeah, there's an important distinction. Just because you could use Linux doesn't mean you can at any particular moment.
I don't really do music production; I'm more into writing and visual arts and photography. I could do all of those things on Linux and be perfectly productive. But there's a difference between being productive and being optimal. My current process happens to be based on software that runs on Windows. (Heck, a lot of the software I use already runs on both Windows and Linux, anyways.)
The key here being that you shouldn't lock yourself too much to just one tool and one approach, and that actually goes both ways.
And that there is the real crime. It's a real shame no one's making a tape drive at the consumer market price point. Tapes are a hell of a lot more convenient for backups and archival than the giant weird pile of storage formats we've seen over years.
Reporter: "Mr. Putin, how is it possible that you got 132% of the vote?"
Putin: "It is merely the byproduct of our superiour domestic mathematical sciences. The numbers are simply greater than the ones produced by foreign-made axioms. Do think of all of the great achievements our mathematicians have done over centuries, such as proving the Poincaré conjecture."
Reporter: (gasp) "Your ballot results were tabulated by Grigori Perelman?"
Putin: "No, we looked at his qualifications but we figured he was out of our reach, unfortunately. We had the results tabulated by some other weird mathematician with a massive case of cabin fever. We saved a lot of taxpayer money this way."
Vast majority of times, when a smartphone camera turns the gorgeous view you saw into a "joyless fucking nihilist" situation, it either fucked up the exposure somehow or picked the wrong white balance mode. Both of those can be somewhat remedied in post (though, especially as far as bad exposure goes, you can't always recover all the detail). I've taken a look at a bunch of crappy cellphone/cheap digital camera photography of mine (everything from recent stuff to, like, 15 years ago) and something as simple and basic as curves adjustment and white balance adjustment tools usually go a long way to fix things.
Turtles are such underrated creatures and most people don't realise how important they are to computer science. Turtle robots! Turtle graphics! Not to even mention the very concept of shell access! And yes, turtles are probably very happy that Secure Shell was invented.
Awww crap I guess I forgot to comment somehow. As the other commenter says, it's from Jim Carrey's bio. I don't think he's a thoroughly bad person necessarily, but the whole vaccine scepticism is a huge negative. And I do have a bee in the bonnet about rich people who align with "socialism" and do NFTs, I mean, what the fuck are you doing, just stop, think about what you're doing dammit.
Why not both? Nobody says you can't be both, right?
