He sure is

My cat gets his claws stuck in things.

No, they're not overgrown. Hes able to fully retract them out of the way. He just. Doesn't.

Not once, ever, have I seen him relax his leg and calmly lift the paw off to unstick the claws. Instead he only ever pulls harder and more violently, which makes retraction impossible due to how the force pulls on the claws. He will struggle more and more fervently until whatever thread, carpet or rope he is stuck in, is the thing that gives.

If he's really stuck, I sometimes help him by pulling on the stuck limb to give the claws enough slack to come unstuck. This has not led him get the hint.

Because it introduces latency.

Higher framerates only in part improve the experience due to looking better, they also make the game feel faster because what you input is reflected in-game that fraction of a second sooner.

Increasing framerate while incurring higher latency might look nicer for an onlooker, but it generally feels a lot worse to actually play.

Nextcloud notes finally got good enough to replace google keep a while ago.

Been happily using that since.

I actually find that the best way to see the dirt on my displays, is to place a bright light at the edge of it.

This causes every particle and smudge on the screen to catch the light and cast a shadow across the surface of the glass.

You'd think it wouldn't work on a transparent material, but no, it lights up every speck of dirt like the way a ray of sunlight reveals the dust that is invisible but always there, floating around mid air.

Hell yes.

It's fucking open source, this is no different from games with intrusive anti-cheat refusing to run on Linux, except in this case it's not even a different OS.

It's monopolistic and anti-user.

Politicians keep trying to helicopter parent the entire populations of countries.

Making sure your kids don't go places online before they should, and have conversations with them about it once they reach an age where it happening is inevitable, is something every, single, parent, should do.

Not the fucking state.

And this has to be one the weirdest implementations of porn surveillance I've ever seen.

This from the man who thinks he's "competing" with Valve?

Valve is figuring out how to run games they didn't even develop on Linux, while Epic complains it's too hard to do for even their own games...

That's rich.

Even if someone did steal a mars-bar... Banning them from all food-selling establishments seems... Disproportional.

Like if you steal out of necessity, and get caught once, you then just starve?

Obviously not all grocers/chains/restaurants are that networked yet, but are we gonna get to a point where hungry people are turned away at every business that provides food, once they are on "the list"?

Reading this: are they implementing ActivityPub?

Blockchain

Oh sweet lord, no. No, they are not.

No?

I just used 7Zip to compress to a .zip file when sending to anyone who I supect is tech illiterate.

Now I'm on linux, I don't even know what application is doing the compressing, I just right click stuff in dolphin to compress/uncompress things using whatever format is suitable.
