That message looks cutesy and whimsical, but would be hard to understand for users with a limited command of English. Though given that it’s Hyprland, concern for the untermenschen is probably not to be expected

On one hand, it sucks that in the Trump era, maintaining shareholder value involves not offending Nazis. OTOH, though, given how tedious the American Revolution one was, essentially running on rails with your character inserted into key episodes, the Civil War episode would have sucked. Presumably you’d have been riding shotgun with Harriett Tubman and/or General Sherman in a succession of semi-interactive cut scenes, repeating until you shot/stabbed enough confederate NPCs to be rewarded with possibly a short break of open-world exploring as a treat.

One example: the early-80s arcade game Elevator Action, in which you play a secret agent who abseils to the top floor of an enemy building and has to grab secret files and make his way down to a getaway car on the ground floor. Well, that’s how it’s described. In reality, you’re a spree shooter rampaging through an office.

Are they talking about her physically modelled breasts?

Also, you don’t want to know what she thinks of trans people

About time. The PSP and Vita were beautiful devices that gave a great playing experience. Sony obviously knew how to make a good portable, and throwing that away was a big mistake.

They could sell them at a loss assuming the average Steam outlay per device exceeded the loss. This figure would be dragged down by people buying them as generic portable PCs, using them solely with emulators, using them as drone controllers (apparently the Ukrainian military do that), and such.

The original one is solid, but takes up a lot of space. Which is fine in a car boot or something, but may be a problem in a backpack.

Having said that, if you’re putting it in a bag where it won’t be rattling around, protecting the front is probably enough, so a half-case which covers the front will probably suffice.

Hey, if you don’t have traumatic brain injury, what are you doing on Lemmy?

Are there any which interface with different national banking systems and allow payment from those without going through the credit card payment infrastructure, which has become a universal choke point? Or are they talking about accepting Monero or something?

If they did, they may be on shaky legal ground in IHRA jurisdictions like the UK and Germany.

The original full-stack developer

One problem with these is that using them breaks things like file open/save dialogs for modern apps which use some (DBus-based?) way of invoking those and expect a modern desktop environment to provide one.

Also, did the source code for the proprietary parts of Open Look ever make it out? That was probably the most handsome GUI of its era, certainly more so than Motif (the “yo dawg I heard you like bas-relief shading” GUI) and arguably NeXTStep.

Time to Switch 2 a Steam Deck.

The inability to roll windows up into just the title bar, or to get Firefox to place each of its windows on the same virtual desktop as before, are major annoyances. Otherwise, Wayland runs better than I expected.

Good luck to them finding work. Pretty much all Fortune 500 companies will have blacklisted them.

The government as bagholder of last resort

If it had “web3” in the description, that should have been a huge red flag in itself.

It gives her money for her hobbies, which at this stage are mostly stoking hatred against trans people. As such, any purchases of this game fund anti-trans hate campaigns. The fact that there is a trans character in the game which funds anti-trans hate campaigns doesn’t redeem it, but if anything, it’s a gesture of contempt (“these idiot wokelings will buy us the rope we’ll hang them with!”)

I have historically gone with PostgreSQL and had no complaints. The licensing issues concerning MySQL also give one pause (Oracle are greedy bastards who will use any excuse to extract money from captive customers, so depending on their properties is to be avoided). Having said that, these days, SQLite is probably sufficient for many workloads and has the advantage of not requiring a database server.
