Ja, finde ich auch wild. Abgesehen davon, dass das Ergebnis jeglicher Intuition widerspricht, muss es doch auch schon unzählige Studien geben, dass auch generell schon eine Pause zur Erholung beiträgt (wie man sie in der Schule z.B. macht).
Und ein Nickerchen ist mindestens eine sehr intensive Pause, von allem was so auf das Gehirn feuert.

Really my biggest frustration is that it isn't transparent what's generated and what's not. If a human wrote the code, then I want to teach them, especially if there's glaring logic issues in the code.

But at the same time, the most likely cause for glaring logic issues, is if they generated the code. And then it's just a complete fucking waste of my time to try to teach them.

Can't easily test this, but it might be possible to set the game itself to "Full Screen (Windowed)" and then tell Plasma to fullscreen the window. You can try this by launching the game and then pressing Alt+F3 to bring up the window menu. In there, you can fullscreen it through Plasma. You can also set a keyboard shortcut for this (I use Meta+F11).

The new doom system is kind of cool. When I got doomed with claustrophobia, I had to switch up my play style quite a bit for 1½ dungeon floors. Which is long enough that it's worth developing your character somewhat differently to help deal with that.

Obviously, you still want to avoid being doomed, and it isn't too hard to do that so far, at least in the dungeon, but as a form of punishment, it is quite interesting.
Might be worth throwing out the draining system and giving those monsters doom instead, as draining was never too interesting...

I figured, I'd get one of those standard issue succulents, because they're supposed to be easy to care for, and now it decided to grow a 30 cm stalk, when the rest of the plant is just 5 cm tall.

Like, what the hell, dude. Am I supposed to cut it off? I don't even know what kind of succulent it is, so I can't look it up either. I've just been letting it grow and hoping that it doesn't entwine my whole place. 🫠

Also has to be said that KDE on those slower-moving distros is actually buggier than on up-to-date distros. I have to use Kubuntu LTS at work and it has so many more glitches and crashes compared to openSUSE Tumbleweed and NixOS on my personal laptop.

Well, there might've been some change that made it even more like the original, which could've prompted such a title either way...

I mean, there's already Starbound...

A few years ago, I found Kaffeine and was so surprised that I never saw a video player before with controls in a collapsible sidebar.

Old screenshot, but this is what it looks like when a video is playing:

The sidebar is extended and pushes the video into a smaller area.

It seems like a rather obvious idea, but I guess, it doesn't get copied much, because most video players don't have a ton of controls to begin with...

Nope. OpenOffice was Sun Microsystems originally. Then Oracle bought Sun Microsystems. Then the OpenOffice devs decided to continue developing under the LibreOffice name. And then Oracle donated the practically-dead OpenOffice project to the Apache Foundation.

 
 

I guess, I should've known better than to feel safe walking into this shop. 🫠

 

Was blindly reading scrolls to identify them. First, a scroll summoned butterflies. Then a scroll made it so they would explode on death.
Thought for half a second and decided to continue reading scrolls, because is there even a scroll that could kill these butterflies?

Well, there happens to be a scroll which summons poison gas.

Announcing Rust 1.93.0 (blog.rust-lang.org)
 

Seems like another routine release. At least no huge surprises that I'm seeing...

 

It's a so-called "music tracker" software which is a specialized kind of application that emerged in the 80s for composing 8-bit-style music.

In general, it has a rather rigid structure, best suited for straightforward 4/4 melodies, where you can throw in some effects here and there. But the nice thing about that is that you're very quick to produce good-sounding results, even if they may be simplistic.

The most recent update (which was apparently more than a year ago 😅) added a synthesizer to create your own samples more easily. You need samples to make each note play a tone, so this makes it even easier to jump into. As a result, I am having quite a bit of fun with it, again, which is why I decided to post here. 🙂

It is free and open-source (GPLv3).
