I prefer the 32 bit signed integer underflow in my favor.

Apple cites security concerns for killing PWAs in europe. I mean they could‘ve made changes to the system to allow running PWAs in other browser engines by offering an API in which other applications could hook themselves into, akin to how Android did it with the web activity that is used by other apps.

But then that would mean conceding to the EU and we can‘t have that, can we?

Actually yes. PokeMMO. I wonder whether Steam tracks this because PokeMMO is not available on Steam though.

Alternatively we got Temtem on Steam from which i heard that it‘s a good game.

On the other hand Rockstar won‘t have to deal with Steam reviews telling potential buyers to ask NASA for a spare computer.

And here i thought they banned alchemy because they learned from a copper trader.

Yeah, but SteamOS is definitely a better OS. A lighter OS specifically. The Steam Deck, while being powerful, isn’t exactly too powerful and having Windows on it isn’t optimal.

Luckily GPD (i think) offers SteamOS for their devices and i do want to buy a Win Mini.

Once my mental health doesn’t suck so bad anymore, i am considering to use SteamOS (or ChimeraOS where SteamOS is not officially available). Alternatively Kubuntu, because Ubuntu has the most help resources. May not be as fancy as a runit based system like Void Linux but it’s fine.

Didn’t get my favorite Sims games to run on Void. And my mental health is so bad, i can hardly deal with failures while tinkering, which is necessary on Linux in conjunction with Windows gaming.

I did try Void initially. Void Linux doesn’t have much resources but they did have an IRC chat willing to help… albeit with a little dont ask to ask schtick. I actually installed Void on a few of my devices for a while to try and get my favorite games to run.

Aaaanyway i encountered some weirdness like being able to install a game one time and then not anymore after installing Void on the internal SSD. I didn’t get my favorite Sims games to work and tried various Proton configurations… It was sad. My ex gf told me to buy a graphics card for my GPD Win 2, which has an Intel HD 600. I could but first i’d have to somehow make this thing compatible to Thunderbolt. Intel HD graphics aren’t exactly good but “buy a graphics card” sucks as an answer too, even if in jest.

I do still want to switch to Linux later once my mental health is better. And perhaps once i got the new Win Mini with integrated AMD graphics. I think GPD actually offers SteamOS for their devices so that’s a distro i may want to give a shot. I do love the SteamOS interface and the KDE desktop.

I’ve tried switching to Linux and didn’t succeed. Nevertheless i wouldn’t wanna see a Microsoft Deck with Windows 11.

chroot! chroot! chroot!

1. People have enough RAM.
2. Developers see people getting more RAM.
3. Developers allow their software to use more RAM (either by doing more cool stuff or optimizing less stuff).
4. People have little RAM.
5. People buy more RAM.
6. goto 1;

This also applies to CPU and GPU.

Perhaps LineageOS could help. Or GrapheneOS.

My copy of Sims Castaway Stories and my multi-disc games like SimCity 4 and Need for Speed Underground 2 beg to differ.

Look, here’s the publicly available repo with the cool source code i made. DO NEVER, EVER… NEVER, EVER, EVER SHARE THIS! UNDERSTOOD!

I believe you need to set the file association within the settings of your desktop manager. If you use KDE, you can find these in the Settings panel under Applications/File Associations

I am working on an application using DevExpress XAF. It allows you to build a big enterprise application relatively quick by doing a lot of the dirty work you would otherwise do yourself for CRUD stuff. A lot of the application can be modified through mere clicks without touching a single line of code.

It is cool but kinda bloaty. When you simply launch an XAF application, it uses 300 megabytes of RAM. And that’s before you even loaded a single byte of business data. You have just reached the login screen.

At least i felt it was “kinda bloaty” until i first booted Void Linux on my gaming PC at home and took a look at htop. IT’S ONLY 400 MEGABYTES AND IT’S READY TO USE! MAYBE ADD 200 MEGABYTES FOR KDE!

ALL THIS BLOATING CANNOT CONTINUE! WE HAVE TO TAKE ACTION IMMEDIATELY OR WE WILL BE FOREVER DOOMED TO UPGRADE OUR RAM LEST WE DON’T WANT EVEN A FUNCTIONING TEXT EDITOR!

Kind of. First you have to buy a Texteditor token and then the license says you’re permitted to open the IPFS link in order to use Texteditor.
