I’m planning to go to Riga in summer 2025 for a concert, hopefully it does not get postponed for the fifth time (i was supposed to go in 2022 lol)
Pour moi oui, mère c’est d’aisse, pas meurceudeusse haha
Perso je prononce chaque e différemment ?
Sounds like buying a steam deck with extra steps for the person who wrote this article haha
I do love how bazzite makes other gamefronts easily available on SD, though
10 years ago, Couchsurfing was like this, I don’t know how it evolved since then
Ceci n’est pas une mémé
Braflix is awesome, it’s my default go-to
Finally! Now I can switch back to the “normal” Steam Beta build for other experimental features, Steam Family was on a separate beta build which didn’t allow me to try other things…
Zen Browser, love the split view feature, and native vertical tabs !
It’s a Firefox fork btw
Firefox because of the addons, also because it syncs (weirdly, but still) with Firefox on my pc
Listenbourg from Lidl
This interaction reads like a tennis match
Oh wow thanks for the correction, I’ll edit my comment
Most open source projects will have a donation page / link, so it relies on people feeling compelled to donate because the software provided is useful to them.
Lemmy for example has options for financially supporting its development. Some Lemmy instances also feature a link to a donation page to cover the hosting costs.
Some have an organisation behind it, like Firefox has the Mozilla Foundation to finance it. Actually it’s the other way around, see ahal’s comment below
The team behind VLC has a “for profit” branch that adapts the video software for companies, allowing them to also finance VLC’s development in addition to donations.
The instance I’m on is definitely smaller in scale and thus calls for a different approach to social media. It definitely feels like the old school forum days where you end up recognising usenames, I wouldn’t be surprised if a year down the line we end up setting up an irl meeting between active members.
On the other hand, it’s definitely hard to break bad habits, and having been on reddit for years, I still find myself having to fight some learned behaviour (doom scrolling, opening the app when I just closed it seconds ago, wanting to post a snarky comment to someone who’s clearly wrong instead of trying to be nice and explanatory…)
I wouldn’t say that leaving centralised platforms for the fediverse is a “lesser evil”, because the fediverse is what you make of it, you still have some control if you’re techy enough. But I do think it take extra voluntary self change to have a better approach to social media, and the fediverse isn’t a solution to that in itself.
This is quite a smart solution, good job !
Graphics wise mostly, it runs okay (30 to 40 FPS), but there’s some input lag because of it in some environment heavy parts
I’m a weird Deck gamer, in that I often start games and come back once in a while, which I never do on PC, where I try to finish one game at a time
