I just meant the prevalent reflex here to tell everyone to switch to Linux. And while gaming had a huge boost on Linux, there are still some cases (especially around Kernel level anti cheat), where (pure) Linux might not be a viable alternative, depending on the type of games you play.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•"new" Python project with hard-coded ancient dependencies, urgh
8·17 hours agoTo me sounds like either a neglected project
If it’s a depdency nested deep in the dependency graph, that doesn’t necessarily mean I abandoned my project. I might be using this dependency of a dependency in my project and don’t notice anything, if there is a precompiled version for the (Python/Linux/…) distribution I’m running on my machine, so I might not notice that. It might even be, that I keep my dependencies up to date, but someone up the chain isn’t. And maybe there isn’t really a viable alternative to that one dependency that pulls that package in.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why are they asking about the serial number?
34·1 day agoAn example: If Im ever going to sell my Nintendo Switch (1), I’m absolutely going to include the model number. The reason: It’s a launch day Switch. While this means that it is the oldest model and also the battery might have more wear than a newer model, it also suffers from an unpatchable hardware bug that allows you to hack the system (and run homebrew, pirated games, modded games,…).

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•When your partner asks where you learned that
18·1 day agoSlowly? That was already a trend like 10 years ago. And since the number of xkcd strips only increased since then, it will happen more and more frequently.
Congratulations!
Did you go the full Lemmy route and install Linux, or Windows? If Linux, which distro did you choose?

4·3 days agoWir haben hier noch ein “Kulturkino”, wo sie auch die alten Filme regelmäßig mal wieder rauskramen. 2001: Odyssee im Weltraum in 70mm Projektion ist bspw. auch so ein Erlebnis, was man mal gemacht haben sollte.
Elvith Ma'for@feddit.orgtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•This hits a little too close to homeEnglish
23·3 days agoFor me it was the other way round sadly. We lived in a house (rented) in a city district that was basically dubbed “the little cozy village right in the city”. We had the prospect of buy this house one day for quite cheap, but then the gentrification happened very fast before we could do that. There were many old houses in that area - often times so old, that the only real way to deal with them was to tear them down and rebuild. Even those were sold at sky high prices. Don’t even think to stay below 800k to 1M. And that before all the additional construction needed. Since this price hike only took about ~1 year to reach this point, we hadn’t really time to realize what was going on. We even got a very good offer to buy the house, but with all repairs and such needed, we’d have still been on the hook for an estimated ~900k total.

3·3 days agoWobei aus der Diskussion immerhin raus kam, dass Ko-Fi recht fair ist - dort werden nur die Gebühren abgezogen, die sie selber haben (3% + 30ct). Ob Ko-Fi darüber hinaus etwas bekommt darf der jeweilige Creator dann entscheiden (im Tausch gegen ein paar erweiterte Features). Und zum Spenden braucht es keinen Account.
Er hat die Sache selbst in die Hand genommen.
I mean, while probably not everything of that was planned, those missions, interviews and streams also serve as PR. So it doesn’t surprise me when there are things like this happening AND “allowed” to occur.
Also it’s quite a different team building and “work athmosphere” needed here, if you do not only see your colleagues a few hours per day, but spend quite a while together.
