  • That script is a wrapper around a single call to qrencode. I've been making qr codes from wireguard config files in the terminal at least since PiVPN existed. There are plenty of guides on how to do this as well.

  • I'm aware that any of the past attempts to classify body types are extremely pseudo-scientific and I've explained as much in a different comment in this thread. The point is that "body type" isn't just necessarily just a generic way to refer to someone's body shape. Plenty of people still believe in that made up nonsense.

  • That makes a bit more sense. I was initially reminded of the various pseudo-scientific attempts to classify variations in human body shapes, which usually don't factor in great variations in body fat content. The way it's used in the image made me think this was an attempt to frame an unhealthy lifestyle as something inherent that can't be changed.

  • Cloud saves work fine between Linux PCs, but the devs seem to have misconfigured the save path for Steam cloud saves integration on Windows. That's why it doesn't work. That's on the devs, not the Steam client. Apparently they were working on a fix since about half a year ago, maybe they finally released that fix now?

  • MFA

  • It is kind of annoying that Steam doesn't enable the usage of third-party OTP apps. To be fair, when they first implemented the feature, that wasn't widely used and plenty of websites only enabled the use of one specific OTP app like Authy or Google Authenticator. They recently added a QR code login feature, which makes sense, but that still shouldn't stop them from enabling MFA via third party OTP apps.

  • I don't doubt that Steam being first to market is the biggest reason for their success, but you make it sound as if there's some alternative store that is better for the consumer in some way. What's the alternative? I have yet to see any other store/launcher come close to Steam in terms of features, even more so when it comes to Linux support, which Valve have turned into a viable gaming OS pretty much by themselves. In the end, even exclusivity and drastically lower fees for publishers didn't make EGS the success that Tim Sweeney wishes it was and I think at that point being first to market can't be the only explanation. They have to be doing something right.

  • Brother gets recommended a lot by virtue of being the least shitty option in the hellish wasteland of consumer/office printers. They aren't perfect, but Brother printers have been the only option in the entire office to reliably print from a Linux computer over the network. Honestly, any day I don't have to interact with a printer is a good day.

  • Gnome was the first popular DE to have reasonable Wayland support and Fedora has switched to it by default for literal years now. I don't know where you get your info from, that Gnome is "one of the poorest DEs for Wayland use", but it certainly isn't from me (and I've actually used Gnome on Wayland since before it was the default in Fedora Workstation).

  • I'm pretty sure that was the intent behind the original wording. The interpretation of this being the remnant of a female human makes sense to me, but as this is an anecdotal account of Sandi Toksvig's time in university, we really have no idea if this is a good example of the lack of a female perspective in anthropology or just a convenient strawman to make a point.

    In any case, cool meme.

  • Maybe you have your own reasons for not being impressed with flatpak and you just didn't list them, but this post is just OP blaming the flatpak CLI for not using sudo for him. There are things that flatpak doesn't do well, but there's currently not a single comment under this post listing any genuine drawbacks.

  • They both solve a very similar set of problems and they each have their advantages, but canonical really managed to burn a lot of community goodwill with snap, so I'm just not willing to touch it personally (I also dislike having a hundred loop devices in my mounts).
