@lemmyrolinga@lemmy.ml I second Bitflip's comment.

F-droid repos are amazing and a must-have, but the default F-droid front-end is not the most user-friendly.

I have been very happy with the Droidify front-end, as have other F-droid users to whom I recommended it.

You can get Droidify using F-Droid, of course.

PPSSPP: I initially installed it because my PSP Go was failing and corrupting my save files.

Dumping all the PSP files onto a pc and loading one save with PPSSPP, fixed all the saves. Then I put them back on the PSP to continue my Gran Turismo career while commuting on the train.

It was mind-boggling to me that the emulator could fix the original console. Of course, it also does all kinds of upscaling, double framerate, etc.

After this happened twice though, I replaced the PSP with a Steam Deck. Sadly, the large stick on the Deck has caused me some trouble with controlling the higher end cars. PSP has no analog triggers, so all the finesse is in the flick of the ministick. I should load up GT4 (PS2) on the Deck soon. And MGS 1 through 3. Am very happy playing GRID (2008) and Death Stranding for now though.

Yes, you are right.

The old stuff, now no longer supported, is:

  • .NET Framework up to and incl version 4.8
  • Runtimes distributed as part of Windows
  • Mono is a Linux Runtime used for compatibility

The new stuff:

  • .NET Core, up to and incl 3, more recent versions are named .NET from version 5 onwards (to prevent mixing it up with the old Framework)
  • Is completely cross-platform, natively
  • I don't know about desktop specific graphical stuff but that probably depends on the specific library

Les cars de longue distance sont dans quelques pays même plus environnementale que les TGV, n'ont pas besoin d'infrastructure specifique, et sont le mode de transport le plus economique, permettant chacun de faire des voyages en Europe.

Mais parce qu'ils n'ont pas le niveau de comfort que Mr. Gregoire aimerait, il ose de les appeler "pas dignés".

Je ne suis pas francais, donc excusez moi pour la langue. "Qu'ils mangent de la brioche". Il y a pas l'espace dans les trains, c'est la realite economique.

Thank you for answering.

I am not sure where to start, but let's take the easy way: At the moment of writing, the wikipedia page "Persecution of Uyghurs in China" has 585 references.

They're probably all written by seemingly independent institutions, journalists and scientists who somehow have a McCarthyist-like fear of communism that they'd risk their credibility just to add a bit of damage to communist China's moral standing?

Or are they all factually incorrect through some other mechanism?

[–] F04118F@feddit.nl 1 points 2 weeks ago

The communism preference, yes. As for the CCP: They literally denied Uyghur persecution. Not even genocide, which is a claim that, due to its severity, is always going to be hard to prove, and thus debatable, I get that.

But even just the fact that the ethnic-religious group of Uyghurs are being persecuted on a large scale, had to be denied. That's pretty extreme.

I understand your desire to defend communism.

But really, how far does an authoritarian regime have to go, while calling itself communist, before you judge them?

What evidence would change your mind about the CCP?

Check CompassRed's comment above.

The definition part of the wikipedia article has a table with these "nice relationships for addition and scaling". You will see that they also hold for many kinds of functions, such as polynomials and other more abstract things than points and directions in 2D or 3D. N-dimensional vectors for example, or using complex numbers, or both.

Ah yeah that looks perfect, just get WayBlue Hyprland then! That sounds like exactly what you need.

No need to mess about with user services in systemd and display manager config.

[–] F04118F@feddit.nl 14 points 2 weeks ago (4 children)

NixOS

Alternatively (speculating here), you might be able to use Nix to install Hyprland onto an existing immutable distro like Silverblue.

Nix people please chime in!

Good point. I guess you're right, there are no flattering roles. But each of those options you list would have been less on top of existing prejudices.

Making her the (non-technical) project manager whose only contribution is "how many story points is that?", who's then silenced because "this is important!", confirms the typical prejudices about women in tech:

  • no technical expertise
  • is not in charge
  • does not have anything to say that is worth listening to in times of crisis

Especially being talked over. This matches many women's experiences in men-dominated environments to a T.

I'd much rather the technically competent, important but socially weird engineer (Jared) be the woman, or the incompetent boss, who's in charge and calls the shots. Even having no women in the skit would be better than this Cindy role.

Or, weird idea I know, multiple people with different roles being women. 🙄

Microsoft has stopped supporting WMR.

Please sign this petition to?open-source the software, so others can maintain it and prevent the perfectly good VR headsets becoming e-waste!

So I recently started to recognize a lot of the behaviors associated with ADHD. I was and still am in doubt whether I have ADHD or not, but some specific events caused me to ask my doctor to refer me for a diagnosis. I was actually doing quite OK-ish this year, after having struggled with self-worth, short depressive episodes and mild trauma in the recent past. But I noticed that I started to have trouble focusing again as the newness wore off after my career change. And I got called out by my friends for "acting ADHD". Which did not sound unusual at all.

So I got the referral, went through the intake with shrink 1, did an adult ADHD diagnosis with shrink 2. The diagnosis involved me and my mom answering questions about the presence of ADHD symptoms now and in my early childhood (5-12 yo). Basically, now I do have almost all of the characteristics, though they often are erratic (no problems studying, huge difficulties with household tasks, work productivity varies orders of magnitude day to day) and often not noticed by others (my average productivity in a month is great, though many days I feel shit due to not being able to do what I am supposed to).

In childhood, no symptoms were found. Zero. Partly because everyone in my family is forgetful and mom picks up stuff after everyone all the time, I was constantly reminded/pushed/supported and did not really have the opportunity to forget things (though I still did) and partly because like now, many of these things happen in my head and are not noticeable in the averages that others see. Except when I'm talking too much and interrupting people but I guess thats acceptable when children do it.

Maybe I don't have ADHD. Maybe it's something else. Maybe the shrink misunderstood me.

But I feel shit right now. The title is what I had pre-planned to say to people about the outcome and if they say again "don't act so ADHD". I can say it with a laugh and everyone thinks I'm funny and quirky.

But the truth is, I feel misunderstood. I feel like a failure for having fallen into an ADHD phenotype even though I am hugely privileged and have none of the baggage so many people here do. No childhood trauma, no school/grades problems, no poverty.

I can't help but feel that my behavior is my fault, as is wasting health professionals time, who could have helped someone who actually needed it. Shrink 1 is on "long-term sick leave" now. She got stressed by me clicking things constantly during the (remote) interviews. Another thing to feel guilty about.

Best case now is that they diagnose me with some sort of anxiety disorder now. I have been reading a book on autism that I found and it somewhat satisfies my yearning for closure and community in what the author finds, but it also makes it extra painful that I don't have that.

I don't have ADHD, I just am super annoying. And I need to deal with that and it's not actually all that funny.

I'm sorry for the wall of text. Thanks for sharing your stories and memes and goodbye!
