That's an impressive game crash, I swap TTY and the game cursor is still visible

Brodie Robertson

Can anyone with more GPU knowledge tell me how that should even be possible

Linky~

@BrodieOnLinux@mstdn.social My games would never crashed like this…it’s always a hard crash for me

To any of you with a language other than English on your YouTube account, get ready for it to be absolutely incomprehensible. YouTube has started rolling out auto-dubbing features (can be changed with settings gear), much worse is garbage translations of titles and descriptions.

@BrodieOnLinux@mstdn.social I believe it also works the other way around, from foreign languages to English.

@BrodieOnLinux I think I was hit by this already by using FreeTube, and one video, where an Ukrainian talks in English, had a German dub by default. (I'm in a country within the Germanosphere and I did not catch on immediately, as I was sure this is a bit by the creator.)

@BrodieOnLinux I'm honestly interested how good (bad) would that look for Slavic languages. Not Russian, I'm talking about superior Balkan languages.

@BrodieOnLinux I would bravely assume it's been a thing since June 10, 2021.

@BrodieOnLinux it also works on Android with plasma/kirigami qt6 ui toolkit and all. Admittedly Android version is buggy but it's awesome to see Kirigami on Android.

@BrodieOnLinux i'm pretty sure i used that 3 years ago

It's normal for big companies to have multiple divisions, LG makes refrigerators and laptops, Samsung makes phones and microwaves, Hitachi makes hard drives and "back massagers"

Glock makes guns and horse cum ghpc.at/en/at/glock-stallions/

Geniusak

@BrodieOnLinux samsung makes hellova lot more than phones and microwaves

@BrodieOnLinux I wonder what's more expensive, a Glock pistol or horse semen. Probably the latter.

Everyone has been focusing on the Bcachefs drama so I think people just forgot that ReiserFS recently got pulled from the kernel literally the day before that all kicked off

@BrodieOnLinux The CoRecursive podcast recently did episode on the whole story of the guy, his insane behavior, the acts, and his dealings with the linux kernel. corecursive.com/reiserfs/

@BrodieOnLinux I wouldn't be surprised if they did this because their telemetry showed a not insignificant amount of users still rocking Windows 7/8. I know a bunch of people who absolutely refuse to give up Windows 7, no matter how much anyone tells them it's a bad idea.

@BrodieOnLinux they misstyped "move to a supported version of Microsoft Windows"
We all know, what operating system they should use next 😌

The Mozilla foundation has an open survey about how they should approach the future, if you care feel free to fill it out. Especially so if you've been unhappy about the organization for years mozillafoundation.tfaforms.net

@BrodieOnLinux "Thank you for completing our survey. Can you make a donation to Mozilla? We're building a movement to make sure that the internet and technology prioritizes people over profit."

Nice marketing spin there Mozilla...

Yuki Linux

@BrodieOnLinux who wants to donate 25 USD to them if what you’ve come to do is complain. At least start it at five bucks or something f. 

dieTasse

@BrodieOnLinux about @mozilla I have two things to share: 1. they should just focus on Firefox now. They try to do too many things and neither of them they do properly. 2. They do not allow 1 EUR monthly, then they get nothing. I want to be fair, I try to pay as many people as possible, that is why I go by rule "If everyone gave me a dolar I would be rich" and I give people 1 buck / month. Not allowing that in a donation form is plain stupid...

Ran into someone from high school just now who I don't think I ever mentioned I had a channel to who congratulated me on how it's doing. Am I truly a Z list celebrity now

This is a game about an American president who is a weeb fighting zombies, made from the perspective of a Chinese game studio, I don't even know what happened in this trailer but it's getting wish-listed youtu.be/BIUQo1y74Fw

Today we have @Jv5_Guy on the podcast a Vtuber who recently switched over to Linux but also wrote a beginners guide for setting up this software on Linux

Everyone has probably already forgot about Winamp, but they have gone ahead and removed the repo github.com/WinampDesktop/winam

@BrodieOnLinux This is interesting. Like, actually. Guess they aren't going open source at all.

Ufal Salman

@BrodieOnLinux they definitely didn't think about what actually means of being open source

Leniwcowaty :linuxmintnew:

@BrodieOnLinux arguably, that's better than having this shitshow of a repo up...

The Wordpress drama has now expanded out to effecting small developers who are losing contracts over the unclear future of the corporate hosting and the project as a whole reddit.com/r/Wordpress/comment

If there is one political belief I will never budge on, it's daylight savings being a ridiculous concept that should have been done away with years ago. All of the research on it points to none of the purported benefits being real, and it being a net negative.

I don't care which side of the clock SA falls on, whether it's +9:30 or +10:30, just stop changing it. All of these other countries seem to function just fine without it, I'm sure the people who want an extra hour of sun can adapt.

@BrodieOnLinux it’s why I like it when I’m at my house in Arizona other then one small Northern portion the entire state does not respect daylight saving time and is on its own time. 

it does make it annoying when people call you at 4 or 5 am though. But my phone is on silent tell 7.

@BrodieOnLinux In Canada, when we switch to standard time, the sun sets so early that I have essentially 4 to 5 hours of safety before I cannot be outside due to my blindness.

Yet, during the summer, dangerous light levels set in at around 8 to 9 PM.

All of this assumes I wake up at noon.

If you're not going to abolish DST, at the very least, you should activate it during the months where the sun normally sets before I've drank my morning coffee.
