Have to watch it on Invidious/Piped/a utube frontend as it's region locked. What a damn shame that some people won't be able to see this.

Hans credits his improved social and communication skills learned in prison among other details shared in the public letters.

I thought prisons were meant to cause more trauma and help ensure people never leave so as to increase profits?

Hello,

Recently there was this annoying 'feature' that would, for example, search the desktop for "t" if I tried to open the terminal with "ctr+alt+t" (the same for any other shortcut as soon as there's useable input). I started searching around for a fix until I eventually found org/gnome/mutter/wayland/xwayland-allow-grabs in dconf which, after enabling it, stopped my computer from searching for the letter t on my desktop and opening new tabs everywhere else. It also seems to have had an unexpected upside of increasing responsiveness on my desktop. I.e. much faster word search in .pdf files, snappier opening/closing of windows, seemingly smoother gameplay, etc.

My previous attempts were also to force gdm3 to use xorg (which I edited back because it made things slower), a whole bunch of logging in and out, disabling (and re-enabling) the dock, and a few system restarts. None of these seemed to effect any change though, I only realized better responsiveness after setting allow-grabs to true.

Can someone tell me if my mushy, sleep deprived brain is correct in assuming that this dconf setting made my computer a bit faster, or was it something else?

Thanks!

IMO the industry as a whole has breached the "trust thermocline" by consistently releasing broken unfinished games. There aren't as many people that will buy a game at release, and would rather wait for the bugs to fixed and buy it at a discount a year or so later; or, it's realized the bugs will never be fixed and no one buys it.

Also with the realization that digital copies (that aren't installed on your own HDD) can be taken from you at a whim. I think most people are fed up with it, and are sticking to games they already have or just not playing at all.

Microsoft asserts that the 7 TB storage per glass sheet maintains data integrity for 10,000 years.

Imagine people 10,000 years from now finding a 7tb homework folder of high resolution ponies.

With the current system, anyone with physical access to your Hue bridge can take it over just by pressing the button.

If a bad actor has access to your home, I doubt light bulbs will be your main concern...

Upping the original as a matter of course.

To me, the definition of 'lame' meaning like a lame leg or something is too dated to be the first thing most people think of in most contexts.

As expected, pretty sure blue light filters are about sleep quality, not eye strain. Not that they matter much, with most devices having programmed in light filters now days.

I wish more companies did this; however, I believe most CEO's have the biased view that everyone has at least some money to spare which, as you probably know (likely on personal level), isn't true.

I understand that participating in cultural aspects of society must cost money due to the very nature of economics (if you want the artist to continue to make art, make sure they don't starve to death) but 'pirating' things is there not only as a stop gap to terrible service and personal risk (privacy violations, etc.), but also as an equalizer between those that have, and those that don't.

Maybe get a Steamdeck if portability is important, otherwise get a desktop. IMO gaming laptops don't last as long because of all the heat stress. Really just my opinion though.

*Funny, just seen this other post on Beehaw about valve selling refurbished Steamdecks. Just thought I would share just in case.
