I don't understand why you'd buy this over the first party Steam Deck

Yeah, but what's the relative quality of responses? I feel like the bar for "tech savvy" or "competent at programming" has dropped precipitously. And unfortunately, the number of people confidently asserting a wrong answer online is high in my experience, including on programming forums.

Another really helpful tool is to use the fish shell instead of bash. It has tons of useful features, but my favorite is by far the autocomplete. It parses man pages to provide suggestions for flags, subcommands, even passed arguments, and each item in the results list has a description, and it's all searchable by hitting shift+tab.

fish autocomplete git

That's what leveled up my cli game from 0-100. It's a massive difference in usability and discoverability. And unlike things like nushell, it's close enough to bash that you won't feel confused if you have to use bash instead.

I had that on a physical machine! It broke hardcore lol I had to reinstall the OS after trying to update

And I bought it last year! Just because it's been out for a while doesn't mean people aren't still discovering it. Especially true for a 2d, stylized game like Terraria where maxing out the performance and graphics isn't essential to make it competitive with newer games.

Actually, when I was in Paris in high school, I had the opposite experience - I kept trying to speak French (which I could speak conventionally after 6 years of study), and many people would refuse to answer me in French, instead answering me in English.

Swift: : Equatable

(assuming all the members of the struct are themselves equatable, if not the compiler will tell you to implement the == method)

My best recommendation is a good git GUI. I really like Gitkraken (proprietary & freemium unfortunately, but a pretty generous free plan). I'm now more advanced than many of my coworkers because it helped me form an intuitive understanding of git.

DuckDuckGo has an app which can block trackers system-wide on Android

~~Game mechanics can't be patented, only game assets (character models, etc)~~ I'm wrong!

Lol chill, I use Firefox. I can still call out good things in other browsers even if I don't like the browser as a whole for other reasons. None of what I said there was in support of chromium.

I heard about this project years ago. Cool concept: standardized, interchangeable storage + identity that can be plugged into arbitrary apps. The idea is that your identity is tied to your data, and your data can be hosted anywhere so you can retain control over your data or use a simple provider. It was also created by Tim Berners-Lee, creator of the web.

However, it doesn't seem to be gaining traction anywhere, even in the already-niche self-hosting community. From the GitHub (which was hard to find on the website!) I could see that it's being actively developed, including a new website redesign, but everything else seems stagnant. Their newsletter has no updates since 2021. There are only a small handful of apps listed on the site and most of them haven't been maintained since 2019 or earlier, and a lot are just things like "solid pod explorer" or "demo app".

Anyone had any experience with it? Or know more about the situation? I would love to see this become more widely used.

I'm looking to keep track of my watchlist/watched list. Found flox, watcharr, and MediaTracker.

Does anyone have experience with these or other alternatives?

 

By the way, this isn't my newsletter - I just appreciate it and like sharing it with the community. The owners do use mastadon though: @[email protected]
