… for now. They’ve already replaced the old Notepad with a bloated UWP version, so it probably won’t be long before it starts sending telemetry as well.

Have you tried installing MTGO using Lutris? Apparently it works fine, but you’ll need some tweaks. The key is to use windowed mode, disable music and card animations:

Runner options: -Use the latest version of lutri-proton if it’s not the default. -Use windowed (virtual desktop) mode and the display resolution of whatever device you are playing on. This was the biggest fix of most problems for me with stuff related to proper rendering of windows. -All else is default from Lutris install

System options: -Uncheck restrict number of cores -Disable desktop effects -All else is default from Lutris install

In-game options: -Disable or silence music and Uncheck play client startup music -Disable card animations(summoning sickness and foil treatment)

I’ve also found that it is always better to close the program using the Stop button on Lutris, there’s a bug where sometimes if you close out of the game via the Close button in the window, it will not properly stop the game, and will prevent starting the game back up again. I also tend to start the game in Lutris instead of via a desktop shortcut.

I that case, check out Fedora CoreOS.

It runs entirely in RAM, administration is super simple, no ssh, easy to update/and upgrade, immutable, minimal distro designed specifically for secure container usage.

How about Gogs? The whole thing is < 30 MB, and is lightweight enough to run on a Raspberry Pi. You can even get a native binary package if you want to run it without the overhead of Docker.

The enshittification actually began several years ago, back when FB bought WhatsApp. That was the moment you gave up on privacy, the moment that was a clear sign that it was all going to go downhill from there. If y’all didn’t quit WhatsApp at that time, then you bought it upon yourselves. The truth is, you’ve been using a shitty service for a long time and whoring your data to Meta and making Zuckerberg richer, so this latest feature bloat or w/e isn’t the least bit interesting.

#Roombas, roll out!

But fear not, the Swat Kats are on their way to save the day!

Cue Swat Kats theme

TIL about Kagi summarizer. Thanks!

Counter-counterpoint: he could work as a pentester, where his sole purpose is to just break into things.

Leave the policy making and actual hardening to someone else.

TL;DW?

That was a hilarious read. Thanks for sharing!

Here’s my take:

May need a bit of tweaking though to suit your tastes, especially light mode. The current color options are a bit limited.

{
  "monet_override_light_secondary_text_color": "#93A1A1",
  "monet_override_light_primary_text_color": "#657B83",
  "monet_override_light_link_color": "#073642",
  "monet_boost_light_color": false,
  "monet_override_dark_secondary_text_color": "#657B83",
  "monet_override_dark_primary_text_color": "#93A1A1",
  "monet_override_dark_link_color": "#B58900",
  "monet_boost_dark_color": true,
  "monet_color_intensity": 0.6,
  "monet_manual_theme_color": "#002B36",
  "monet_system": false
}

{
  "monet_override_light_secondary_text_color": "#93A1A1",
  "monet_override_light_primary_text_color": "#657B83",
  "monet_override_light_link_color": "#073642",
  "monet_boost_light_color": false,
  "monet_override_dark_secondary_text_color": "#657B83",
  "monet_override_dark_primary_text_color": "#93A1A1",
  "monet_override_dark_link_color": "#B58900",
  "monet_boost_dark_color": true,
  "monet_color_intensity": 0.6,

  "monet_system": false
} 

In both cases though, there is a legal requirement to prove that you’re above legal age to buy/consume alcohol. However, there’s is no legal requirement to provide such information to a social media platform.

AudioEncoder (bug 1749046) doesn’t really have any dependencies or blockers, as far as I can tell. If there are, then you (or whoever has access) should update Bugzilla and add the dependency there.

Because Firefox is like a democracy, they prioritize work based on number of votes on issues/feature requests. The AudioEncoder API has literally just one vote, and the overall WebCodecs API that it’s a part of only has five votes. This shows that there’s very little demand for it, meaning very few sites actually use this (that or the vast majority of Firefox users don’t use/need this feature). Why bother focusing your efforts on implementing something that most users don’t care about? The higher priority things that most Firefox users care about is stuff like performance, and Mozilla have been making some good progress too on that front.

In addition to what others wrote, here’s a practical example:

I wanted to insert an old photo in a comment, from my Google Photos. The photo doesn’t exist on my device, since it was taken from an old phone. I located the photo in Goolge Photos and downloaded it to my device. Then I went to pick the photo in Sync, but it was neither visible under “recent”, nor in any of the albums. So I had no choice but to scroll thru hundreds of photos to manually look for it, and found it under the original date the photo was taken - which makes sense, but in the previous gallery, my recently downloaded photos would appear at the top.

I’ve only got a few hundreds of photos so this isn’t a big issue for me, but I can imagine it’ll be a dealbreaker for people with thousands of photos on their device.

realmd and sambafor AD, and smbclient can be used to map network printers.

As for how Maya OS looks, it’s going to be used for their defence systems, so it’s highly unlikely we’ll get to see it. But it’s supposedly based on Ubuntu and has a “familiar” interface, so I imagine it might look something like Zorin OS.

Did your app just get updated as well? :)
