Yup. Personally I just don’t like having multiple light sources emitting differently colored lights. I’ve even configured almost all lights in my house to synchronize both their strength and color with the sun.
Bright and energizing light during the day, warm and cozy during the night. Even if it doesn’t do anything, it’s still just neat to be in.
Yeah, I really hope these are just the death throes of a slowly crumbling market segment (walled garden consoles).
Not only has the Steam Deck already blown a small crack into the almost entirely propietary handheld market, so much so that there’s now even a (niche) market with a bunch of different devices competing, but I also wonder what happens once the Steam Machine and whatever is happening with the next Xbox.
I’d usually be the last to root for Microsoft, but if their next device is really something more akin to a PC, then I wish them the best. That said, anything shipping with Linux, e.g. Steam Machines would still be my preferred choice of course.
That includes appeals to morality
I mean, you say that, and to some degree you’re right, but you do know that the Brave CEO is the same person that brought JavaScript upon us, right?

Yup. I’ve heard this first about Home Assistant, but software like this often inadvertently acts like a pacifier for tech enthusiasts. We may have our neat solution for the moment and be content with that, but that doesn’t help anyone else, or us in the long term. Things will get worse with no push-back.
Disclaimer: That’s not to say that we shouldn’t advocate for those tools in the meantime as well. We just shouldn’t lose track of the actual problem.
Even if it’s only a thing that needs to be done once: Either the one-day delay has to go, or Google.
There’s nothing redeeming about their plans.
Agree, there’s no way this is the whole story. Someone is hiding something. If that isn’t the FSFE then I’m guessing that the payment processor set the whole thing up as a flimsy reason for kicking them out with a “justified” cause. As to why, who knows.
Speaking of install scripts, their refusal to version them for “reasons” was my first hint that the project wasn’t in a healthy state.
And considering this is about the Dragon Quest creator, those games historically got high quality inventive translations as well with lots of different dialects for different locations.
Wait, just two weeks ago I was looking for a new GPS logging app and didn’t notice that there’s now an official (and non-official) dedicated Android app available. I’ll have to try it out.
I’ve been using Dawarich for a while now and the biggest problem was always finding a way to get a good app that can do both accurate, and battery-saving tracking.
Anyway, love the project and seeing it continually improving.
Fully agree on that. Always better to start fully fresh, even without such problems.
That said, it’s still important that it will ship pre-installed. That way app-developers who block GrapheneOS cannot excuse their actions anymore by saying that it was your decision to use another OS, and therefore not their problem.
I’m actually enjoying catppuccin as well, really nice theme.
Funnily enough, I actually do use true black as my wallpaper and only have a fixed taskbar on my second non-OLED monitor in order to prevent any amount of degradation when im just using a browser on that second monitor.
If you don’t have the OLED yet, I’d wait a bit for it. Thanks to their intense contrasts, having a true black background can quickly cause eye strains, even more so with even just light astigmatism.
It’s kinda why OLED-Themes on phones haven’t taken over either, and the effect isn’t even as pronounced there as it is on a big monitor.
Same. I always find it weird how apparently most people don’t make use of their own custom feeds and instead rely on r/all, or, even worse, let what they consume be dictated by an algorithm. And this goes far beyond Reddit. This place, YouTube, Twitter/Bluesky and pretty much any of the big platforms.
Never done this myself, but I believe gamescope should be able to do that? It should be able to run as the primary Wayland compositor and with the right flag you can expose Wayland to the client.
I wish it was only limited to support forums. I’ve even seen a Linux kernel driver where the Issues sections was closed and you should go to Discord instead. No thanks.
Even worse, those stats are also probably just a leftover from a giant spike coming from Singapore around that time:
That one eventually got cleaned up, although a lot of the spillover into other countries remains.
I did some math at the time, and it must’ve been about 1000 fake machines for every real one. And considering this was kept online for several weeks despite making news: Yes, stop using statcounter.
Oh yeah, Mint is also pretty special. It’s pretty good for non-gaming “it just works” purposes, but recommending it blind for gaming is just straight up evil: No Gnome. No KDE. Just three niche DEs that are still mostly stuck on X11. Meaning, that if you want to properly make use any recent monitor features (as in, decade old features) your only option is to switch to another distro.
It’s a surefire way to get someone to switch back to Windows.
Either that, or it’s Debian with its ancient drivers and libraries. Maybe even both.
I’m guessing it’s real, just shot with a phone that does a lot of “AI” postprocessing.
The whole setup actually consists of three parts:
Basically, it’s less about using specific lights, as long as they’re remote controllable. Home Assistant is where the real magic happens. I’ve also set it up so that lights automatically turn on/off based on motion.
