Finally.

Yep. Godot and Blender I think

I know this is a tiny percentage overall, but it’s a very substantial boost to the Linux percent, perhaps correlating with Win10 losing free security updates, and a minority of savvy gamers swapping to Linux. (Myself included, so obviously bias to my statement)

Okay that’s what was happening… yay

So you admit you can block IPv6 traffic in your rebuke to IPv6 adoption. What’s then the issue? Block what you want, it’s your network, but do it with a firewall and not NAT.

Sure, nature took its course, but did NATs make things better? I’m a game dev and getting two computers to talk to each other is so so much harder due to NAT traversal, requiring punchthrough servers. Voice chat and stuff need STUN/TURN servers. A game has to account for “what if my host wants to connect two clients, one of which within the NAT and one without?”

Makes far more sense to give every device an address and just talk to it and leave security and port openness up to firewalls.

IPv4 is definitely a large part of the blame for this and we need to start resting the blame there in hopes we force these companies (and their users) to actually use it. We need ISPs to support it, of course for end users, but at the enterprise level everything should be IPv6. It should have been IPv6 a decade ago, or more.

JXL isn’t lossless by default but you can encode losslessly and still get meager to fair file size reduction compared to WebP or PNG.

The arch wiki is shockingly detailed at times. I’m very impressed.

Hi hello, this is partly me. My bad. I’m not moving to Win11 (by force and by choice) so I installed Arch just to start to get the hang of things and, well, now I’m just daily driving it.

I’ve run distributions in the distant past and toyed with recent ones. I think this one is staying though.

Feels good that when my computer is idle, it’s not busy spouting off telemetry to some server somewhere. I can customize way more than before, and with Proton, I can still play the games I want to.

I really like Randall but this one feels like an incomplete answer. The question wasn’t how fast can we do it while being safe, the question was how fast we can do it while being alive - which is as we all know very different from safe.

Feels like a lot of “not inventing the wheel” - which is good? There are plenty of good wheels out there.

FINALLY! This has always annoyed me. If you’re gonna go through all the trouble of identifying that I want to exit, just DO it.

The top bit got me recently, I hadn’t needed to remote into my desktop in a while and searched “Remote” and “RDP” and found nothing. Eventually I found it was renamed to the windows app and finally logged in but was baffled as to why they would do that.
