I bought one years ago and it sat unused in a drawer for like a decade or whatever until I got a Steamdeck. Now I use the Steam controller every day, and it's by far the greatest controller I've ever used. It's the only controller ever that I've enjoyed more than mouse and keyboard, and I'm a PC gamer so that's saying something.

I like it even more than the Steamdeck controls themselves, because I like to have that docked to my large TV, and the hand feel is better for me with the smaller controller.

I'm just hoping someone makes another controller like it before this one breaks, because the Xbox controller is not even on the same level. Nothing compares to the Steam controller.

she’s working on a non cryptographic challenge so it taxes users’ CPUs less, and also thinking about a version that doesn’t require JavaScript

Sounds like the developer of Anubis is aware and working on these shortcomings.

Still, IMO these are minor short term issues compared to the scope of the AI problem it's addressing.

That sounds frustrating, I can see why you might be discouraged when it feels like nobody cares about your project.

I am not a marketing guru, my projects also have nobody paying attention to them, but I do know that if you want collaboration you usually have to ask for it. Let people know; post about your project and explain your goals and ask people for help. It's never guaranteed that people will see the value in what you're doing, but they probably won't if you make it closed-source either. You're blaming the wrong things here, my friend.

Still, good luck with your project, and good on you for posting it on codeberg, that's a great first step to getting some interest!

I don't think this list is fair at all.

no community on irc/discord/matrix/xmpp to ask about (yes, i talk about you @libreoffice )

LibreOffice has a help page with a bunch of methods to find community support, including Discourse, a bug tracker, Mastodon, and a bunch of other avenues (and yes, they have an IRC channel also) to find help.

assholes in communities if such exist (yes i talk about archlinux and @godot )

The Godot community is one of the nicest around, maybe second only to Blender's community. But you are right, assholes are everywhere. I got news for you though, bud: there are assholes in the communities around closed-source projects too; far more of them, usually.

enshittification and slowly going back to not being opensource (yes i talk about @mozilla )

You are claiming that a reason why people don't use open-source is because.. they don't use open-source? Circular reasoning is not an argument for anything, you might as well just not have included this bullet to begin with. If you avoid open-source just because "Mozilla might not use open-source for everything" then you're just punishing yourself for no reason.

small opensource can do nothing until big opensource does the step

You can always be the change you want to see. You don't need permission from "big opensource", whatever that even means. Every project starts small, with an idea and some code added to a repository that is shared with others for feedback and/or collaboration. You don't have to limit yourself because others aren't doing their project the way you think they should.

This is such a great response. I learned something from you today, thank you.

Also, Plex email blasted a few weeks ago about how nobody can share their libraries anymore without paying for a subscription. That was the push I needed to check out Jellyfin again, and the experience ranges from "good enough" to "that's better than Plex" for me and my buddies.

Damn, that's unfortunate, but good to know. Thanks for the info.

This seems like a really nice tool, congrats!

Too bad there is so much focus on AI though. The UI looks nice, and templating and being able to schedule posts would be super handy, but I don't need an AI to write things for me. I find that using AI is ethically icky anyhow; I'd rather not have it in any of the tools I use.

Is it possible to disable all the AI features when using Postiz? Like, a boolean setting in the deployment configs would be great.

The phrase "for profit" is probably referring to the corporation's structure. It isn't related to whether the corporation is currently profitable.

What does it mean that the sideburns are a different style in every panel? Also the hair at the back of the head.

Dunno if it would meet your needs, but I've been using Input Remapper for binding macros to various key presses and mouse buttons under Wayland. It does prompt for root access, but it's a GUI. It supports any input method, as far as I can tell. It even supports my tablet.

I use it to bind stuff like hold(key(BTN_LEFT).wait(100)) to some button to repeatedly left click while I'm holding that button down.

What you're saying here may be a valid concern, I don't know. I gotta say though, the way you're presenting it discourages people from taking you seriously.

The dramatic language, exclamation points everywhere, the OVERUSE of ALL CAPS for EMPHASIS and so on makes this feel like some Qanon nonsense from Aunt Karen, and the eyes glaze over very quickly while trying to decipher it.

Just a friendly note for future posts, you can take it or leave it.

It's been a while since the last time this was asked, so here goes again: what specific apps do you use Waydroid to run?

Whenever I get the itch to play around with this impressive project, I quickly remember that I can't think of anything to actually do with it. There's already a Linux native app for almost everything that isn't an ad infested game, so I'm curious if anyone has use cases for Waydroid that they can share. I'd love to hear about something cool that I didn't think of!

 

Regardless of whether you enjoyed the plot or acting or other typical measures by which most people will analyze it, I'm curious:

What thoughts do you have about the portrayals of autism in the movie?

Did you find that it was better or worse at representing autism to NT viewers than the first one from 2016?

I believe 1.0.152 is meant to be the version compatible with the new Lemmy release, and it works pretty well as a guest user. Unfortunately, when I try to login to lemmy.ml (which uses the new server version), I get Error: An unknown error has occurred.

Looked through the app and didn't see any official bug report area mentioned, so I hope this is the right place to go for this. If not, sorry for the noise!
