I use mine to run VJ software and do light shows at music events.
Since the deck is a powerful computer, and the form factor is quite compact, I find it better than laptops for the task.

They have a Kickstarter ending today, if you want books of his comics

Agree to disagree. For me the story and main/side quests were amazing and rarely has a game captivated my attention as much as cp2077 did.

I'm curious, if you consider them average, what game has good or great side quests ?

Depends on what you're used to. I have lost too much time trying to get a python or js program to run on my machine.
Of course if the project is well written and with decent documentation it's easier, but in general I have had too many incompatibilities with versions of the tooling and the dependencies which may be too ancient to work properly. On the other side, go code that was written a decade ago still compiles fine without thinking about it.
Hell I even had a js project that was working then 6 months later, without changing any code in it, wouldn't build. Talking to a front end dev at work he immediately said "oh yeah node was probably updated and you need to do x and y to make it work". Sorry but I have other things to do than massaging bad tooling to build this.

Btw, even containers are not a bullet proof solution. I had a python container straight up not work even though it was distributed like that.

I agree in general, if you need something specific then there is no way around it. But when I'm looking for something I evaluate all possible solutions, and being written in a language that has issues like this is a mark against it. Sometimes it's easier to write the thing myself in some language I master than to wrangle python or Js dependencies.
In my experience there is rarely only one solution written in python or Js for my use cases.

You're not wrong, but you have offended the python guys for suggesting they use something other than their toy language.
I personally look away when I find programs I want to use that are written in python. I don't have time to play with all that BS just to run a small software on my machine. Go is my go-to (heh) but any other modern language would be fine.

From the incident report it seems the impact was limited to VMs in one DC in one region to be stopped, as the power was lost. And some service degradation in the region.
So not that much impact. Of course resources in this DC would stop working, but the rest of the region was still working properly. If you built your infra in this region in a resilient manner, your services should not have been impacted that much

The ACF takeover is the cherry on top for me. Fork it all you want, but to force users to upgrade to your version looks bad on them. That's literally a supply chain attack and they have shown to be willing to do whatever they want to their users.

Funnily enough, the steam deck has been used during the conflict to control remote weapons. So they could be implicated in this if you go far enough

Wow, I didn't know that being a Linux/open source contributor meant you don't have to follow your country's laws.

It's developed internationally but devs still reside somewhere and have to abide by the rules at that place. Linux in this case being represented by an US entity means they have to follow the gov's sanctions. If you want more or less of those, that's where (the government) you act.

No need for WPE to do anything for him to look like the bad guy imho

 

I just started trying to setup two screen using the official dock and the experience has been pretty awful. In desktop mode, I got two freezes while trying to have the displays recognized. Booting with both screens plugged in resulted in no detection. Then after replugging a screen (display port) I only got 640x480 resolution. Second replug I got the 1080p but plugging the second screen either results in a crash, or just now it's not frozen but I only have a black background and the mouse cursor.

Is there some setting to change to improve the situation? Ideally I'd like it to be automatic when I plug the Deck on the dock, especially with valve official dock which costs quite a bit compared to other options.

I'm curious about other people's experience with this

 

Hello,

I have subscribed to a few communities already (some on other instances, like lemmy.ml ou beehaw), but some communities cannot be accessed from here, even tough other communities from the same instance are available.

For example, I cannot access !golang@lemmy.ml from here, even though I can access other communities from lemmy.ml here, and the community is accessible from other instances (like feddit.de: https://feddit.de/c/golang@lemmy.ml). I only get a 404 error: https://sh.itjust.works/c/golang@lemmy.ml

Is there any reason why? Maybe related to load issues @lemmy.ml?
