So, in gaming terms, we're upgrading our gear to kill stronger bosses?

For what it's worth, I am a frequent lurker of hexbear and their users' newspaper archive is wonderful - every politician is full of it and they know it full well.

Oh yeah I can work under pressure

Wait, you don't mean with the song playing in the background?

My device doesn't have a graphics card and only has two threads, so I guess it's just for higher end devices?

Tried it, my device crashes every 2 minutes in. Not worth the effort for now.

Linux desktop market share climbs to 4.45% in c/linux@lemmy.world

Has anyone ever tried to carry out a stochastic analysis of the data? I'd never thought about it, but the webpage's way of representing the data makes it seem like we're watching the stock market.

It would change the landscape of Linux gaming completely.

I myself cannot afford to lose some FPS (as in most games I can barely hit 30), but I cannot wait for the moment I can buy a gaming device and enjoy all these goodies!

What stupidly easy tech solution do people gloss over all of the time? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

If they have root access to my PC, webcam access is arguably not my biggest concern

To the people who insist on me adding a sticky note to my webcam, I can only say

sudo modprobe -r uvcvideo

Are you depressed? Do you know anyone NOT depressed? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

In my case, I'm just addicted to social media like Lemmy. That's what causes it. I can't quit it.

Privacy in academia? (feddit.nl)
 

Hi everyone,

I've been checking this forum but I have not managed to find duplicates (I'm using Summit for Lemmy). If that's the case I'll remove this post.

I'm about to start a PhD. I've been told I will be required to partake in publications and other shenanigans. I am not against it, but I'm very concerned about having my full name flying around the internet, as I've always been hesitant of sharing any of that information (real name, pictures, etc).

Ultimately, I only care for potential employers to know that it's actually me the one who has written this or that, which I would happily disclose in private.

What's the usual stance in this situation?

KRunner vs Application Launcher (use cases?) (feddit.nl)
 

Lately, I found out that Application Launcher also features all the functionality I use from KRunner.

In my particular experience, Application Launcher is snappier at first launch and also returns results rather quickly. For me, this begs an obvious question.

What's the use case for using KRunner over the Application Launcher?

So far I've noticed that pressing Enter on the Calculator results makes the entry be copied on KRunner, but this does not happen for the Application Launcher. I'm certain there must be something else to it, otherwise people would not be using it (even I found myself using it from time to time, but could not understand why).

Day/Night Switcher has arrived to Plasma 6! (store.kde.org)
 

You can find and download the project from the KDE Store and from https://store.kde.org/p/1804745/

Hey guys,

Just wanted to tell you that Day/Night Switcher has been finally ported to Plasma 6. I couldn't have done this with the interest by the community on the project's continuation. Anyway, let us all enjoy it.

I am only posting this in the hopes that old users who moved to Plasma 6 may catch up on the news.

See you around, kids!
