Set up a blanket fort

Nintendo controllers 😬

My experience may be dated, but I’ve always had issues with controllers on Windows and Linux. Less so with Linux these days because my controllers are dated and the drivers are in the mainline kernel.

The biggest issue was solved with steam and it’s controller interface / community layouts.

One of the goals of neovim was to introduce tools to build a GUI around vim. Imo the terminal is by far the best option, but there are some fun options. Neovide is an interesting one. Mostly because it doesn’t do too much – just eye candy.

A lot of posts in here complaining about shitty commercial radio. Do you all not have local radio stations? I love my local stations.

Interesting!

Another row could be useful, but I thought the default layout of the keyboardio Atreus was clever because the second layer put the number keys right under the right hand so it worked like a number pad. Another row for numbers would be useful for gaming though.

I have a fond memories of the game for sure! The world was really cool to explore and I did keep coming back to it. I think I got to the point where the combat became really easy – I recall finding a way to almost cheese it.

Sort of a dumb reason, but imo, flying a spaceship is not really what the game is about and that’s all I wanted to do. For example, I wanted something where I had to use orbital mechanics to dock with a station, but the powerful SciFi boosters in Elite Dangerous take all that fun away.

GTA for the Gameboy on the other hand, kinda rad.

I was really disappointed with this one. I tried it out per a friend’s recommendation after they heard I was playing a freeware space flight simulator (Orbiter, which I do actually recommend).

Kingdom come deliverance. It was a rollercoaster. One of the first games I played after building a new computer. I progressed far enough and finally found that the combat was jank and the story was pretty garbage. Still have fond memories of the game though. Almost like the first time playing Oblivion 🙂.

I have the keyboardio Atreus. It tooke me about a month to get back up to speed with qwerty. Did you learn colmak before hand or did you learn it on this keyboard?

Lol everyone should go read the couple of posts on the community / magazine with the same name. Hilarious seeing people so triggered by people pointing out that the name is a bit problematic.

I always just use zsh with oh my zsh. Best of both worlds.

One thing that I still don’t know how to do is go to the next result in the search with Ctrl+r. Makes it less useful lol

The trend towards subscription services for basic features is garbage and replacing controls which should be easily accessible with a touchscreen is stupid if not outright dangerous.

Also isn’t a Tesla kind of a “premium” vehicle? For mass adoption they should be affordable without all the silly add-ons that will be woefully our of date in 5 years.

I don’t want to own a car that could cost 1k+ dollars to replace the headlights.

Prioritizing developer experience is not the reason we use front-end frameworks. People expect the web to work like a desktop app (no page reloads). The initial request might take a little bit longer, but in the end a well written front-end app will feel faster.

The problem is that people don’t worry about bundle size and cram every library off of npm into their website.
