Valve COO on Epic's Tim Sweeney "you mad bro?" when launching the Epic Store (repost, clarified was internal email)
  • gog has always been so anal about linux though, that it kind of feels like a epic games to me. you can't have a platform ran on drm free games, and then when people want to play them on linux (the "drm free" platform), they ignore and alienate them.

  • The concept of "the closet"
  • i've never liked the idea of having to come out of the closet. I want to be able to say "oh, my boyfriend cooked my lunch, I don't know what spices he used, i can ask him", without it turning into "oh i didn't know you were gay, thanks for letting me know, so brave" or something weird. we were talking about lunch, not who i like to sleep with

  • Papirus Icon Pack Updated with New-Look LibreOffice Icons
  • i'd recognize gparted everywhere

  • What are some things you wish you had known when switching to Linux?
  • how cool and sexy and irrestible i became

    to the right people ^^

  • Trying to get my partner to switch from Windows to Linux. Has anyone tried Scrivener with Wine?
  • i think the most important part is that if they switch to linux, you are now their IT support, and they will rely on you. be patient and understanding with them, even if stuff is not necessarily broken.

  • Is queer an equivalent substitute for lgbtq(...)+?
  • i never say lgbt, it feels heavy, especially with the full lgbtqia (I already don't know what can come after)

    i use gay for any kind of not straight sexuality, and queer to me also includes trans stuff, ace, aro...

    we're not cis and or straight, we're queer

  • Blue-light filtering glasses probably make no difference to eye strain – study
  • colors get fucked up when you increase contrast though

  • How do I give my mint ventoy USB persistence?
  • casper seems to be for all ubuntu based distros, so including linux mint

  • What ingredients or dishes lived up to the hype for you?
  • i can't find any fish sauce where i live. do you go to a specific kind of shop for it, or is it just available at the grocery store ?

  • Minecraft's devs exit its 7 million-strong subreddit after Reddit's ham-fisted crackdown on protest
  • if you're not aware of that whole thing, the issue is not that mojang is banning people for using slurs, it's that their list of bad words with way too broad, and you might get banned for saying "night" or I think even "zzzzz" or whatever things you might say as you're going to sleep.

    banning for slur, yes very good banning for a word that's in a naughty list that's not bad or even pretty common, that's silly

  • Usernames are Evolving - Revolt
  • is revolt good ? I'm in no desilusion that i'd be able to make my friends move away from discord, but maybe for new communities ?

  • Redditors, how do you like Lemmy?
  • so far it's really nice, it's what I liked in reddit and before that forums, without being what reddit became.

    the fediverse is hard though, but it kinda makes sense. I'll see if I get more used to it
