Yep, with the desktop versions of Signal, Matrix (Element) and Steam chat.

I’m yet to try out gamemode, which may help. But I typically close Signal and Element when I’m gaming, so it’s usually not an issue for me.

Edit: I’m on EndeavourOS, KDE, i7, 16GB, Nvidia 2060.

You appear not to have heard of Google Glass.

Hadn’t seen that before. Love it. 😄

This seems a reach. Podcasting (MP3 files distributed by an RSS feed) is platform agnostic.

To me, claiming that any platform is “killing” any demographic’s podcasting capability is screaming “I know absolutely nothing about podcasts”.

YMMV. 🤷🏽‍♂️

It’s a net positive, not a negative: using ESDF means you have a bunch of keys available to the left of your movement keys.

Sure, it can be a pain if a game forces WASD, but otherwise you’re not the person having to lift your hand off the movement keys (or buying an MMO mouse) to have the same flexibility. 😄

I think it’s the usual “it hasn’t impacted me personally, so how bad can it be” maintaining the status quo at all costs.

Once something happens that they care about, they’ll be on the Fediverse that day crowing loudly about how awful Xitter has suddenly become…

Parts of the Internet now only searchable on specific sites now? What next - charging a monthly subscription to use Google?

This needs to be regulated before the Internet becomes like streaming TV.

Had no idea about this. Very useful, thanks!

I second this, as it’s my use case.

Providing you lay out each note correctly with appropriate frontmatter, Dataview’s DQL and DataviewJS give you all the SQL-like functionality you could want.

Plus a load of useful functionality beyond a plain DB.

It is.

I’m sure you’ll be shocked to learn that their consistent advice was to call them so they could take it away to examine instead…

Here we go again.

I dealt with a few CSAM cases in previous jobs and there’s an oddity in UK law: if you even suspect there’s a CSA image - including regular nudes of someone under the age of consent - on a device, it is illegal for you to check.

By opening the image to determine what it is, you are prosecutable. (Not sure if anything has changed since, as this was nearly 10 years ago).

There are many, far better, ways to deal with this issue that don’t destroy relationships and futures.

One business dying is not the death of a media type, FFS.

I once wished for this, especially back in the days when there were next to no laws regarding it, but there’s zero chance as the money and attention has moved to it. There’s political capital in demonising online discourse.

“Think of the children” is somehow the gotcha for so many of the hard-of-thinking amongst us.

“This is illegal!”

Bung in the post

“This is legal… for a fee!”

If the punishment is a fine, it is targeted at those who can’t afford the brib—I mean fee.

I mean… what kind of person tells another that they’re having fun the wrong way? 🤷🏻‍♂️

The whole full circle thing aside, I’m delighted we’re still able to do this 🖕🏻 with the current protocols.

My choices > your shareholders.

I definitely admire the integrity and the effort.

But, economically speaking, you get what you incentivise for: if you can game the system and get the click/eyeball ratio, then they’re going to do that.

Nice. But as a BitWarden user, it’s useless to me. I’ve never put all my eggs in one account basket.

Passwords on one service, MFA on another, email on yet another, etc.

TIL this is a thing. I started doing that over 30 years ago with SLS and Slackware when that was the only choice.

This was pre-PnP (also pre-JPEG!), so you had to know all the addresses, IRQs, DMA info, etc, of your hardware or you’d get… unexpected results. make it and they will come…

After countless distros and flavours over the years, I still use Debian for servers and now use EndeavourOS for desktop/laptops.
