There are android apps combining fex/box64 with proton in order to run full Windows games now. Android may actually be a semi-viable gaming platform in the near future.

GameNative is one that works as a full steam client but there are a few others that give you more control like Winlator (both on GitHub)

You can actually play games pretty decently on them, especially indies like hollow knight and Celeste.

VR is a niche market with fundamental accessibility flaws (motion sickness, spatial requirements, etc.). As for the controller, what discussion is needed? The steam deck already exists and from that it's pretty easy to get a decent idea of what the controller will cost and feel like. It'll probably end up being a solid controller for people that want it, but uncomfortable for people with smaller hands.

That isn't to say that the steam frame/controller won't impressive pieces of technology, but should be pretty easy to see why discussions would mostly be around the steam machine and specifically its pricing. Its success (or failure) will likely be what carries the reputation of both the steam frame and the steam controller alongside it.

If you want to be technical about it, you pretty much just described any modern video game console. The OS is the only thing actually differentiating modern consoles from PCs (or tablets in Nintendo's case).

I misread it, seems like it's just the Omarchy theming system it has integration with. My point mostly still stands though, going out of the way to support Omarchy's system is still a red flag.

For those unfamiliar, the creator of omarchy is a pretty open white supremacist and transphobe among many other things. This blog post does a pretty good job of outlining everything:

Then it really is authentic Boston Pizza!

(No seriously I found maybe 3 good pizza places while I lived in Boston and I'm pretty sure 2 of them technically weren't even in Boston. The pizza there is mid at best)

It's worth noting that support for pixel 10s is currently in alpha and incredibly buggy

Is raccoon still being developed? The last commit that isn't a dependency bump was 3 months ago and the last release was 8 months ago. I'm still using it for now because I like the UI but I feel like a lot of the formatting is kind of jank

Installing NixOS was a real bird-brained move, huh Kasane Teto?

I'll see myself out

To be fair, Linux isn't developed on GitHub (it's developed on the Linux Kernel Mailing List and kernel.org) and most of the spammers knew that going into it. The PRs on that repo were mostly just people trolling any bystanders that took it seriously until the internet did what they do best and took the joke too far.

In this specific example they didn't waste anyone's time or resources because it was never being used or monitored in the first place.

Edit for more additional context: Linus (who created git in the first place) mentioned not liking centralized git servers so he's specifically said for multiple years that he never considered actually moving development over to something like GitHub

I'm working on switching over to NixOS on my desktop and one of the last things I haven't got fully working is my neovim config. My LSP's are able to start, and all of them work fine except for clangd. For some reason, it can't find C/C++ header files for any installed libraries. I have all of the LSPs themselves installed through Mason in Neovim, and I have programs.nix-ld.enable = true enabled so they can be run correctly.

Here is the shell.nix file I'm using for this project:

{ pkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {} }:
pkgs.mkShell.override { stdenv = pkgs.gccStdenv; } {
  nativeBuildInputs = with pkgs.buildPackages; [
    glibc libgcc
    clang-tools libclang
    SDL2 SDL2_image SDL2_sound
  ]; 
  CPATH = pkgs.lib.makeSearchPathOutput "dev" "include" pkgs.glibc pkgs.SDL2 pkgs.SDL2_Image pkgs.SDL2_sound;
}

Is there something extra I need to do to get clangd to find the C headers being used by the project? when I actually run gcc it compiles fine, it just can't seem to find them correctly in Neovim

Edit: Forgot to mention that I'm using this shell with direnv and launching nvim directly from the same shell that I'm compiling from

 

I have a virtual source and a virtual sink which I'm using to forward audio to/from chat apps (Matrix, Discord, Zoom, etc.) so I can control the mic/output volume independently of everything else on my system. I have them setup and working fine using pipewire.conf.d files. The problem is that using wpctl to change volume requires having an ID, but those aren't static. Normally the solution would be to use @DEFAULT_AUDIO_SOURCE@ (or sink), but that wouldn't work in this case. Is there a way to adjust volume/toggle mute without having the ID? Or alternatively, is there a way to get the ID for a specific node name that I can put in a bash script?

If I'm asking this in the wrong place, is there a better place to go?

 

I wanted to see if video uploads work, I may have a few hours in celeste

My bytes.programming.dev's main feed is erroring again. It looks like everything else is loading fine, I just can't see anything on the timeline for some reason. Is it the same DB issue that was happening last time?

EDIT: I just checked and it seems like it's back

Not really sure if there is a better place to put this, but is bytes.programming.dev having issues for anyone else? I can log in but my timeline doesn't load at all.

I'm trying out NixOS on my laptop right now and I'm loving it so far, but I was thinking of setting up distro box for ubuntu (mostly for a few developer environments dependent on it) and arch (for packages that aren't on nixpkgs yet). I was wondering about the battery life hit on a laptop and I couldn't find anything definitive on google/ddg. Has anyone here noticed a difference?
