If you have dual GPUs or an iGPU plus a GPU, you can use passthrough and play your games with near native performance in an isolated Windows virtual machine under Linux.

I heavily use Firefox for Android on multiple devices since many years. It HAS annoying bugs. The most annoying for me is the tab view keeps forgetting the last tab you were on, when for example closing a tab from tab view or moving between tabs by swiping the address bar.
I think every person's bugs depends on how they use the software.
edit: quick word order fix.

Your interpretation sounds pretty likely to me. I'd guess if they get nukes, they'll go Israeil's way and will newer admit to it publicy.

I used to maintain a zero unread mailbox. At some point I stopped. Email is just a public global todo list, than any one can write to. It's okay not to read them all.

Around 25 years ago I had read about this Linux thingy in a computer magazine somewhere in the middle east. We had a Windows 95/98 PC. I got my hands on some Red Hat CDs (or floppies) and managed to install it on the PC. It booted into a prompt, but I had zero knowledge of Linux or any Unix-like OSes and had absolutely no idea of man pages. Didn't manage to start the graphical environment. I took my case and rode my motorcycle to some computer engineering student (the most knowledgeable person I had access too, we had no Internet) and asked him for help. He told me it's my graphics card (some old ISA VGA card), but couldn't help more. In the computer market no one knew about Linux either. So my first try to switch to Linux failed.
Fast forward 25 years... I'm surrounded with Linux and computers in general. Desktops, laptops, single board computers, virtual machines, local or remote. I started with Ubuntu (free CDs posted to my poor country...) with Gnome and later gnome shell, tried Debian, Mint, Parsix, and finally Arch Linux. Moved from graphical to command line and started absorbing the Unix philosophy of simplicity and robustness. Nowadays I use sway and KDE on Arch Linux for work and pleasure, and follow very old Unix mailing lists looking for hidden internet gems.
P.S.: forgot to mention Libreelec (kodi) as my media server and OpenSUSE Leap on laptop which I chose to enjoy some automated install with encryption and btrfs which worked surprisingly well. If I live long enough, I might start thinkering with BSDs (openbsd probably, because of the picture at the bottom of their homepage). I already use pfsense which is based on FreeBSD.

Anyone interested in awk make sure to check the just published awk book second revision by original authors. Kernigan's writings are a joy to read.

Great move. I did this last year after a decade of gnome and can't be happier. I use sway for work and KDE for pleasure.

Use different user accounts. That provides you with very stronger isolation and separation of concerns, with the bonus that you won't be exposed to their crap.

Not quite. Trains are more flexible and forgiving schedule-wise. You miss one, you take the next. No crazy airport security either. Train stations are often in city centers, connected to cheap public transport and walkable. More room and less strict.
We need more comfortable and cheaper trains though.

I think it's a good move. Carriers are decentralized by design, af if they were not greedy and stupid, they could come up with at least one decent messaging. RCS is good by they did not make e2e mandatory in the protocol.

Imo that's what caused Firefox to lose market share to Chrome. They focused too much on Firefox OS and deprioritized browser development. In one example, it took them a long time to implement FIDO when it was already functional in Chrome.

That thread contains some interesting facts. For example TLS mismatch which is why FF can't load the favicon.I installed Voyager again from m.lemmy.world and the icon is now correctly displayed.
Due to recent evil moves by Google to push Web Environment Integrity down our throats, I want to use Firefox web app instead of Chrome web app on my Android device. I noticed the Firefox installed app has a black circle as icon, but Chrome one has the right icon. Is this a big in Voyager or some other Google/Android discrimination? Edit: Installing Voyager from m.lemmy.world fixed the issue for now. Thanks for all the tips.
Last year I made a new pixelated free typeface for my 2d game. It has Arabic, Persian, and a subset of Latin glyphs enough for English, German and Spanish texts. Inside the repo you'd find makefile to build the font and generate test outputs. Since it was my first experience designing a typeface ever, I might have made mistakes not known to me. That's why I post this, hoping someone would point them out. Here is the repo https://github.com/mehdisadeghi/Noqte
