On the couple of AUR packages I maintain neglect I have been approached via email to add people as co-maintainers. I don’t always have the time to keep the packages up to date so I was happy to let someone else help out.
Might be something worth looking into rather than an orphan request.
That makes a lot of sense, I hadn’t considered that business sellers would still be charged.
It’s the other way around. Nintendo is a law firm with a game dev hobby.
Any info out there on how they actually plan on making money going forwards?
The article talks about other platforms charging a fee to buyers instead but mentions nothing about eBay introducing this.
Are they really making enough from ads on the site and vehicles to replace the lost revenue?
The lack of backwards comparability is because of the large difference in architecture.
The PS2 was a128 bit custom processor, the PS3 had PS2 hardware in the original fat versions to achieve backwards compatibility, it was dropped to reduce the price.
The PS3 was a 64 bit (I think) custom PowerPC processor.
With the PS4 Sony switched to x86_64 processors making the console essentially a PC with bespoke custom hardware. The PS5 is the same but better speced components as the tech moved on. That’s why the PS4 & 5 are compatible, they are essentially using the same architecture.
Microsoft is a similar story but they went all in on emulation of their old consoles which is why only certain games are allowed, they only allow the ones tested to work with the emulator.
If you really want to learn something, go learn it. What’s stopping you?
Work.
If I don’t work full time I can’t afford to house or feed myself.
Work wipes me out mentally leaving me no mental bandwidth to spend what precious little time I have left to go learn, even if I want to.
I would love to be able to dedicate time to learning like I did when I was at university but even with the government funding available to me I would have to upend my life.
I do spend time doing learning around things that interest me but it is depressing how little bandwidth work leaves for me to do that.
So the main part of a computer that controls everything has a specific set of things it can do. Imagine that each of these things can be triggered by a button on a control panel.
Every company making this part of the computer has their own set of things and layout for the buttons to trigger them and you have to pay them money to learn what the things are and how to press the buttons.
RISC-V offers a set of things and a button layout that the community can freely see and use.
In this example a computer program is just the list of instructions saying which buttons to press in what order.
Not only adds it as a shortcut, but also allows you to use steam input to remap controls, very useful on the deck.

They should still be charged if the wrong amount of postage has been paid.
So if you send what royal mail count as a large letter but with a normal stamp instead of a large letter stamp they will be fined and charged the difference in postage.
You have forever changed the way I communicate from this day on.
It’s a minimalistic approach, you get one widget at the top of the screen and then a handful of favourite apps.
There’s no app draw instead you scroll an alphabet on either side of the screen to find apps.
Works really well if you have a lot of apps and you want to find them by name.
In the paid version you can have multiple widgets but they stack in the one spot and you have to swipe between them.
It’s perfect if you want an uncluttered launcher.
In addition to features for migrating communities and accounts I think the ability to set up a special type of instance that just archives everything from all the instances it’s federated to would be a huge benefit.
Something along the lines of an instance that doesn’t allow new content to be created, only consumed. This way if an instance were to permanently close we could migrate it’s communities to other instances from the archive.
This could also extend to migration of lost accounts, though ensuring the original account holder is the one making a request could become a nightmare of an overhead. The situation could be improved though if lemmy got some sort of feature for linking accounts across multiple instances.
My wife added ABBA’s Dancing Queen to our driving playlist for our first long trip. Silence into a deafening piano slide half way through the drive was an interesting way to nearly die from shock.
Basically.
I build on my laptop and then add to the repo stored on my NAS.
I’ve also got chaotic-aur set up as they tend to build the bulk of what I need from the AUR so I only have to build the more niche packages I use.
I did something similar with Puppet a while ago, it also runs as root so hot the same problem.
My solution was to set up my own package repo for the AUR packages I needed and just build them periodically. This way I only have to build them once for all the machines.
My car seems to be from the transition period, it has a lighter but no ash trays in the front, only in the back.
I guess it’s fine for the kids to smoke while watching the in built DVD players but not the driver and front passenger /s
So all Ukraine needs to do is take out the interpreter, replace them with one of their own and boom 30 new troops for the Ukrainian army.
