I've tried both pretty extensively and moonlight is so, so much better. I was really surprised, but it's far and away better than steam link. You can stream your PC by using Sunlight - https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine

I think it's that neuro-diverse people tend to gravitate towards each other, so this is probably survivor's bias. I definitely find that other people with ADHD are able to grab and hold my attention better than neuro-typical people and also they're more understanding and forgiving when I'm flaky, or too hyperactive, or whatever.

I just started using Proton, but I don't think any of their apps are available for Linux natively, which is disappointing. I mostly use Proton apps inside Ferdium which I find useful for combining all of my productivity apps and Ferdium basically just keeps a website loaded, and websites are always cross platform compatible. I would love to know if there's a timeline for Linux apps in mind.

It's definitely an edge case by say you're in / and you run a script like ./code/script.sh then it thinks the current working direct is / rather than what is probably intended which is /code/. If your bash script uses full paths like /home/$USER/code/ then it will still run correctly regardless of the current working directory that the scrip was run from.

YouTube throttles some of the more popular instances. Find a less popular one. I was also finding that thumbnails and subtitles weren't loading on some instances. After switching to a fairly obscure one, everything works. You could also try piped which I find generally works better and I like the interface better.

If the person in question has ADHD, maybe cut them some slack. I have ADHD and I'm terrible at messaging people even though I enjoy talking to them and hanging out with them. I hope that my friends understand that.

It really depends whether he got the devs of "Lutris, Heroic, Legendary, Bottles, etc." to agree to use the unified runtime before starting this project. As long as he gets most of the big players to join then it will actually become the only standard worth using.

context from the show Silicon Valley

Such an advantage, theories suggest, came about due to males having to move around in large tracts of land while hunting, while women stayed closer to home as they foraged.

This is a popular misconception but there's a lot of evidence that shows early human societies were egalitarian and men and women equally participated in hunting and gathering. Especially after tools like the ahtlotl (a spear-throwing device) became common place.

Here's an article from NPR about gender equality in early humans: https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2023/07/01/1184749528/men-are-hunters-women-are-gatherers-that-was-the-assumption-a-new-study-upends-i
And here's a wikipedia article about the ahtlotl: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spear-thrower

The only thing that's different between Chrome and Firefox for the average user is that WebGL doesn't work (yet) in Firefox, which I know is technical, but it means some websites that need more graphics processing won't work in Firefox. Since WebGL is fairly new, I haven't run across it much, only once or twice.

Oh yeah I forgot about the teen numbers, but yeah still applies.

I wonder if others have some favourite posters that you they quite often?

For me, it's @Stamets and ThePicardManuever but I've noticed a couple other prominent posters lately although their names haven't stuck for me just yet.

Just so this discussion doesn't devolve the same way, odd numbers are numbers that can't be evenly divided by 2. So the only numbers that can be odd will all end in 1, 3, 5, 7, or 9 - or "one", "three", "five", "seven", or "nine" all of which have an "e" in them.

Christmas is basically a secular holiday for a lot of people these days anyway, but if optics really matter to you, just call it "Yule" or something.

Gitlab is quite good and used by a lot of open source developers.

It's not exactly a misconception that I've ever really held, but I absolutely hate the lazy writing trope in TV/film where hitting someone over the head and knocking them out is used so commonly and casually and there are never any repercussions.

In reality, if you get hit on the head hard enough that you lose consciousness for any length of time, you're almost certainly going to suffer very serious brain damage. If you wake up at all - yes, it's quite possible you'd die from this - then you're going to have a major concussion, a huge headache, and probably a fracture in your skull and your brain will be swelling up inside your skull. It's a VERY serious injury, and yet it's just played off as this casual thing on TV and I think it's incredibly dangerous how casually it's depicted.

There's a big difference in body image set by men for women and body image set for men by men

“These oddities keep getting swept under the rug, but the more we find, we’re going to have to come face-to-face with the fact that maybe our standard model needs rethinking,” said Lopez. “As a minimum it’s incomplete. As a maximum we need a completely new theorem of cosmology.”

I find this line really funny. Anyone familiar with cosmology knows that most cosmologists agree that our current models are lacking. After all, that's what dark matter and dark energy are, unknown variables in the current cosmological model. It seems odd to me then that they're acting as though they're a minority when most cosmologists agree, it's just that the current model is the best one we have, so if you don't want it "swept under the rug" then don't just prove the old model wrong, make a new model that fits every observation.

There are considered to be 10 stages of genocide as described by Wikipedia here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenstagesofgenocide

The stages ramp up in severity until we're at full gas chamber Nazi status by stage 9 and stage 10 is denying any crime occurred.

I'd say Israel and Palestine were already at like stage 6 before this, now it's at like stage 8. It's not clear if Israel actually plans on exterminating all Palestinians, but it sure seems like that's where they're leading things.
