I like NixOS
Cool! I've been using Loop Habit Tracker for a few years, and it doesn't seem as focused on encouragement but just for tracking things. Which works for me.

I've been using HDR on Linux since February or March and it works pretty well. MPV works great (with vk_hdr_layer), and games work if you run them in Gamescope, which has its own complications but overall it's pretty good.
Yep, all my classes they said to SSH into the Linux labs to test your code, except for my Assembly class where we had to use an ARM emulator that was only on Windows. I had to swallow a bit of my pride and remote desktop into the Windows labs instead.
Lots of people have been saying they should focus more on developing Firefox rather than doing other things like partnering with Mullvad or whatever. There are already quite a few other fediverse instances.
The issue with just using UTC is that the date changes in the middle of the day. Like in Seattle it would change from one day to the next at what is currently 4 PM.
You try to plan an event for the 16th, and which physical day it's in depends on whether it's before or after an (ultimately arbitrary) cutoff time. You say "oh this happened yesterday" well was it a few hours ago before the date change or do you mean the previous physical day.
Also weekdays would be messed up. You work "Monday to Friday" between the current 9 AM and 5 PM, but then how does that work when Monday starts at (what's currently) 4 PM? Do you work between 4 and 5 since it's during work hours on a Monday? And on Fridays do you stop working at 4 because after that it becomes Saturday? You say you're busy all day Wednesday, but does that mean you're suddenly available after 4 PM when the date changes?

My french teacher in high school said that everyone gets winded going up stairs, cause people who are fitter walk up the steps faster
I took it on my Acer XV275K P3, which is supposedly factory calibrated to: a white balance of 7,500K, average Delta E of 1.54 (Green x of .21, y .71, Blue x .15, y .04), and 99.8% sRBG coverage. Using NixOS Unstable (rev 970e93b9f82e2a0f3675757eb0bfc73297cc6370) with KDE Plasma 6.2.4 in Wayland with HDR enabled, with SDR brightness at 50 nits, SDR saturation at +30%, and screen brightness at 80%. Firefox 133.0 64-bit running in native Wayland mode. I also got hue 174 true neutral, but there one or two where I could've chosen either way so idk.
My friend and I still use "xD", has this gone extremely out of fashion since I left middle school?

(I got desperate and read the wiki) apparently if you just knock her out you can recruit her later. I haven't gotten far enough to see it work though.
I got an 8bitdo controller (ultimate 2C or whatever), and it feels really nice. Except the triggers are not two-stage. And it's smaller.

I believe Lemmy lets you edit post titles, hopefully that works
The power went out on the 19th (Washington state), so I pulled out Carved By The Garden, a solo journaling RPG that I purchased kinda on a whim but never tried. It was my first time trying a solo RPG but it went better than I expected, it got pretty intense by the end. It was a horror RPG as well, so playing in the middle of the night with no power, flashlight in one hand, was pretty cool. I was a little unsure of how well the journaling system would work but it went pretty smoothly once it got rolling.
Tonight I just played a DCC horror funnel, "Creep, Skrag, Creep". It went pretty well, lots of characters were killed and lots of luck was burnt, people were burning eight luck at a time which I've never seen before. We play a lot of DCC but this was separate from our other campaigns.
Totally Accurate Battlegrounds is really fun and silly. Doom Eternal is also cool.
O3DE 24.09 Released
I've wondered about this game engine for a while. Based on CryEngine, it sounds like it should have pretty stellar graphics for an open source engine. There doesn't seem to be much of a community around it though.
I'm trying to have a serious conversation here
A screenshot of a movie with two pirates talking to each other. The subtitles say "You can't just say 'lol' at the end of a sentence and think that makes everything alright". The text that was previously behind "lol" has been covered with a black rectangle and overwritten.

I was struggling with handling dialogue for a point-and-click game, has anyone tried Ink or other dialogue plugins? I tried both DialogueManager and Bonnie, and while Bonnie seemed nicer they both were kinda clunky.

Anyone using Godot for non-game programs?
I've heard of Pixelorama which is pretty cool, and I saw some videos of someone making a video editor in Godot. I was wondering if anyone else has tried making non-game applications in Godot?
