Not that I saw. A nag screen maybe, but it was dismissible

Its just the symbol The Register uses at the end of an article. Like how some papers use a filled in square.
I always thought that people using searx etc over duckduckgo were just gluttons for punishment. Having gone an entire morning without search, maybe now is the time to dive down that rabbit hole…
Thanks, fixed! (TIL you need the https:// bit on Lemmy)
There is, they just don’t publicise it. Actually one of my favourite features of the service tbf. Just load up a web page and all my messages are there, regardless of where they came from.
Iirc microkernels have been the future since before Linux existed. There was a bit of a flame war between Linus and the guy who wrote the MINIX kernel about how being monolithic would be the death of Linux.
GNU Hurd also wanted to show the world how good microkernels could be, but sadly never got off the ground.
I’m not saying microkernels are bad, but I do wonder if there’s some reason we don’t see them out in the wild much.
There’s a common thread between a lot of the missteps listed here and Embeacer group’s recent troubles. The idea that you could fund 230 Spiderman 2’s for the same price as buying 1 Activision-Blizzard-King really drove the point home to me.
The problem (in my obviously uneducated opinion) is that when you spend so much money in acquisition, especially of established companies, you’re neither funding nor rewarding innovation. You spend $70B on ABK and some randos in suits get a huge payout that they invest in oil or crypto or whatever. Spend $70B on talent and early career devs and you could unleash a tidal wave of creativity and experimentation.
Is this the one that was planning to be a full open world RPG originally? (Sui Generis IIRC) I’m guessing that’s unlikely to happen by this point. Exanima still looks fun though
I’ve had to give up on KISS launcher recently because of this. 95% of the time it works fine, until it scrolls right to the end of the lost and won’t allow you to scroll back. Swiping left and right then also breaks and the only thing to do is force stop quickstep.
EDIT: Just tried with Niagara and got the same issue almost immediately. (Seems to be triggered by opening recent apps from the launcher itself)
For reference, I’m on a Fairphone 5 using the stock ROM
On a tangential note: got caught out be it saying “next Saturday” is the 24th. I know that this is common terminology, but to me next feels like it means soonest, and I know I’m not the only one.
I do wonder what percentage of Linux users reject the survey compared to Windows users. Not that it’s changed much, but every little helps right?
I do wish that people could take their health more seriously without being guilt tripped about struggling pubs.
Functional bros rise up!
Is that an issue if you need to login first?
I guess the argument would be that software fixes need to be implemented for each ROM separately. Which also involves the pain of decompiling. Yes FPGAs are probably a pain, but they potentially offer perfect emulation of every game.
One thing I’m not sure about is how portable FPGA logic is. If I write a NES emulator in verilog for one FPGA, can that code be reused on a later model if, for example, my FPGA goes out of production?
It’s a bit repetitive, but it’s not too bad.
Eventually valve will probably push a SteamOS update out with plasma 6. But it’ll be up to then when to do it.
Well it’s 400,000 accidents, so there’s probably every kind of circumstance you can imagine in there.
The point is that owning a BMW shouldn’t affect the chance of you finding yourself in dangerous circumstances, other than ones you create by your own actions. (Unless everyone in the UK is secretly hoping to ram BMW drivers off the road).
What’s happening with The Escapist? I thought things had been going better over there recently
I suppose a complete history of Tory government was out of scope for what’s already a dissertation-length essay.
Actually, at the end the author begins to slightly contradict himself by arguing that (neo-)Thatcherism is the long-term objective of the conservatives. I suppose the consistent narrative is that the Tories have a long-term commitment to policies that can only ever yield short-term gains.
This does lead to the rather dire conclusion that British politics is stuck in a cycle where Labour slowly rebuilds the British state, only for the Tories to sack it the instant our fickle support for progressive government waivers.
