I was considering installing KOReader on my Kobo. However, I have decided that I don't want to do any tinkering with my Kobo. The entire point of my Kobo is kinda to be a distracti…

Yeah I think most of the people who super into Minecraft still play Java Edition if they can. Also MacOS and Linux still don't have Bedrock edition (officially) for some reason.

As far as I'm aware Gnembon still works on Carpet Mod, which seems like a pretty complicated mod. And he still updates it for every single Minecraft snapshot.

This fixed a lot of bugs related to input. If you scroll down to the bottom of the page you can see all the bug fixes from this snapshot, there are a lot related to input.

Well that's why it's a snapshot. It will probably be fixed in the next snapshot.

When I get sent a verification code from myGov (via text message), the message contains the 6 digit code, AND a 6 digit phone number for the help desk. I have to stop and double ch…

My phone's bootloader is unlocked but LineageOS doesn't support it (Zenfone 9). I would use it if I could.

I don't think that's what the comment you're replying to is saying

They didn't say they were buying them. It is just undeniably a bad thing that you can't buy it without DRM. You can say "just don't buy it", but that doesn't make the existence of …

What do you mean? You mean not on Apple hardware? That exists, that's basically every other Linux distro in existence.

> i’m not sure what they mean about agents, however. would this mean a human generates legitimate traffic, and that goodwill can then be utilised by a browser agent? I feel like th…

What do you mean by that? Does this[1] not count? [1] https://capacitorjs.com/

I definitely have. But they're all the games that they gave out in the early days, the more recent games haven't really appealed to me. And it didn't convince me to spend any money…

Yep. I know the Minecraft optimisation mod Sodium has encountered some issues because Nvidia drivers try to optimise the game in ways that can cause issues for them

Oh damn I didn't realise it sent all this to the cloud. That seems kinda concerning.

Go to Google right now and search anything. What is the very first thing you see?

Well they'd just release it under a non-commercial license. The majority of their income comes from Obsidian Sync, and someone can't just host their own version of Obsidian Sync fo…

So then you just only play it with trusted friends. It's still better than the current situation

I really want to use Helix, it clicks with me so much more. But I do not want to learn how to use Helix for development. I want to be able to continue using VSCode. And last I chec…

Well that's one extra key press for every action. For example, you have to do `ved` to delete the current word instead of `de`. Whereas in Helix it's just `ed`. Also visual mode do…

Going to just copy and paste rbren's comment from above: > Some people seem to be convinced by logical reframings, like "if you jump into a woodchipper you die, but if 50% of peopl…

If you think that you can somehow get EVERYONE to press red... then surely you could get EVERYONE to vote blue. The outcome would be the same. And guess what... it's a lot easier t…

Maybe if the US had a sane voting system, but they don't. I'm of the opinion that their flawed voting system is a huge factor in why the US government is the way it is.

If it automatically adds something to the history when you visit the page, then yes. If it only adds to the history when the user clicks something, then I would assume it would be …
