Version numbering scenes are also arbitrary. In the case of Linux, the scheme is “Bump up the minor version until it’s too big. In that case bump up the major version instead”.

The terminal is a power tool. I can do stuff with it that’s slow or inconvenient with graphical tools.

I really like the piping capabilities of the Linux terminal. Incredibly useful for text processing.

I don’t think Sean makes as many public appearances anymore, so probably safe. But who knows what he will do.

How is that going to help artists getting paid?

Seems like they’ve fixed it now, but there was a time when they had proof of stake without withdrawal functionality

Haven’t checked it in a while, but is it still impossible to withdraw staked coins?

That’s basically it, except everything is darn expensive.

KDE Plasma and Gnome are different desktop environments. Kind of like the GUI of the desktop.

Which is best is a matter of taste. I prefer KDE because of its customization options and better virtual desktop support.

But locking the screen is not the purpose of xscreensaver. It’s mostly just an overlay with animations.

Screen locking yes, but that’s not screen saver.

Who even uses screensavers these days?

On the topic of Microsoft support, I hate how useless support boards are. They’re always responding with the same template answers describing the exact steps the asker clearly stated they’ve already done with no results. Microsoft is far from alone in this, but I just wanted to rant a bit.

What’s the half life of Half Life sequels?

I’m still waiting for Half Life 2: Episode 2: Part 2

Tying NFTs to a physical object is quite pointless. It can make no guarantees that it’s the only NFT for that physical object, or if the physical object even exists.

You’re right. It will evolve into a different even more stupid scam on the blockchain. And people will fall for it again.

I don’t want to use a browser / browser engine from an advertising company as my daily driver. It’s in their best interest to track me as much as possible. Only Firefox and Safari satisfies my criteria, and one of them is the obviously better choice.

Safari also has reader mode.

It’s hard to communicate it to the consumer. Far from everybody follows this discourse surrounding the game. Maybe someone buys BG3 just for the split screen capability, just to disappointingly find out that the Xbox version doesn’t support it. Especially when they already have paid full price for the game.

BG3 should have split screen coop on PS5.

The problem with Xbox is that Larian couldn’t manage to make it work on Series S due to memory constraints. It takes a huge toll on memory if you allow two characters be on two parts of the map at the same time.

Microsoft wants Series S to be a cheaper 1080p option of Series X. Any game Series X can play should Series S also play with lower visual fidelity. This turns out to be a flawed dream by the looks of it.

I don’t think Microsoft will abandon this cheap 1080p console vision just because of one game, but they might need to if more games start to drop Xbox support due to this.
