I assume cinnamon uses the kind of methods talked about here: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/inhibit/

I don't know anything about freedesktop and I refuse to learn, but give it a read and see if you can use it for anything.

The systemd-suspend.service also runs any scripts it finds in /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/, which might also be respected by whatever cinnamon is doing, or not. You can read more about it here https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/systemd-suspend.service.8.html

For that you'd basically put a shell script in that directory that checks if the $1 variable that is passed to it is either "pre" or "post" for suspending or waking up respectively and running whatever command you want. Again, this is hacky and might not work in all environments.

To add to the great response from @confusedpuppy@lemmy.dbzer0.com, amber would address one thing only: writing the syntax.

Most people don't need it, and even if they had it would break the compliance in other ways besides syntax, but I'm sure there are people out there that know what they are doing who would appreciate amber.

Amber will still support bash stuff, or perhaps even other non-posix shells through the use of flags.

I get why this is useful, and it's useful for me as well, but the perfectionist in me asks why target bash instead of posix?

I'm guessing he's alluding to a bunch of asserts, data sanitization, and granular error reporting. But yea, who knows.

They probably hold funds in escrow until games are outside the refund window before paying the devs, it would allow them to do this pretty easily.

I imagine they've had enough refund requests for games that went on sale shortly after purchase that it made sense to them to automate it. Still, if it were me I'd be automating the ticket processing rather than the refund itself to at least screw over a, most likely, large portion of the users that didn't notice.

I was thinking the same thing about a video I just watched covering Linus ranting to someone who asked a question on the mailing list about big endian support on risc5.

Basically some guy asked in a single sentence if there was a chance for support and Linus and everyone else wrote essays about how dumb it would be, and I'm wondering why bother reporting on such a niche and completely arbitrary tirade about experimental CPU architecture.

That said it did include Linus writing a long list of similar examples of hardware choices that he finds offensive that was entertaining, and that's probably why people report every time he rants about stuff; he puts a lot of effort into his opinions and it give people a lot to chew on if they are interested in those topics.

I have no idea what it's asking. Think I'll pass on whatever this is.

It's the dunning-kruger of politics, people think the solutions are simple like "just overthrow your government bro"

Shrieking into the void is my favourite pastime, I don't even watch the stream, I pause it and concentrate on the chat. I've never once been tagged or responded to after thousands of messages, and have macro keybinds for every emote available so I can post :Kappa: and :Omegalul: as fast as possible.

I don't trust anything that comes out of the intercept, but I looked around and found plenty of statements from proton about it. TL,DR they probably checked the accounts themselves before acting on the reports, and consider reversing the decision to be "exceptional" circumstances.

So you're saying I should vibe code some programming languages, compilers, and libraries
