as soon as I’m done taking the cysa+ exam I’m going back to arch. I can not stand this. but thank you for the info! I’ll dig around and see what more I can do to make it a bit more bearable.

I’m just bitching, but I had to put windows on one of my machines for the first time in just over 10 years (since I was a kid) and I absolutely fucking hate it. slow ass, bloated, clunky ass OS. garbage software.

I pretty much did this at my first coding job lol I was building an online menu that you flip through with the keys lol

It’s a bit ambitious for just myself but I want to make a fork of Mortal Online 2 but for NA and have the melee mechanics mimic Chivalry 2.

But I haven’t been able to really code much at all being in this bootcamp full time to change career paths from software development to cyber security on top of working a few other jobs. I also have a plethora of other ideas once this bootcamp ends and I can hopefully find something stable.

Very true! But I think how said technology is presented and making it easier to use or more understandable to certain people goes a long way.

Sort of like public intellectuals and hardcore academics. Hardcore academics are the ones driving forward new innovations for a particular field of study or another. Public intellectuals make said field of study more accessible to the public by providing descriptions and explanations in various laymen terms.

In a similar way, bottles may make using wine or different wine versions easier for some; or maybe the process of creating and setting up a bottle clicks better and makes the most sense for them.

I am similar.

I have found the process to be rather overly complicated; though I do recognize some benefit in more granular control in certain areas. Between running different versions of wine and proton, I have been able to do everything I've needed to and wanted to do with far less steps and time invested into the setup. I haven't really thought about bottles again until now.

However, I do think that it is important to support projects like these anyway -- as gaming on Linux is one of the few consistent barriers for people switching over from windows or mac; just because it isn't my cup of tea or that I personally don't see the benefit of it doesn't mean that there isn't a whole community of people who prefer to use bottles and enjoy the fine control over runners and such. In a larger sense, I think supporting them would be supporting gaming on Linux as a whole.

Not surprised by this at all, really; but I wonder if the code is of higher quality than without AI?

Where are you seeing anything about energy? it says power — which includes, but isn’t limited to, electricity.

[–] harbard@fedia.io 2 points 6 days ago

it absolutely is. used it for work and it fit our needs perfectly. I wonder how much improvement it has undergone in the year it’s been since I’ve used it.

[–] harbard@fedia.io 2 points 6 days ago

me too; but at least you know it’s not you’re fault — for whatever that’s worth.

[–] harbard@fedia.io 1 points 6 days ago

yeah, in one sense it was lol.

This. This project drained my soul lol.
