Man that makes me feel so removed from the "mainstream".
It's like someone took everything i hate and made it a game:
- meaningless open world
- crafting
- repetitive survival gameplay
- grinding
- boring combat
- superfluous monster catching
I can't wrap my head around its success...

agree completely, i honestly miss that phone a lot. the snapdragon 801 really let it down, since it overheated so badly, but there's something really appealing about those massive bezels.
i really don't like the modern phone design trend of rounded edges and camera holes. if i could have modern hardware and a better camera inside that z5, i'd switch back in a heartbeat.

Born in 1896, biochemist Gerty Theresa Cori became the 1st woman to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine (and the 3rd to win a Nobel Prize).
Cori faced gender discrimination & was marginalized for years. But she never gave up.
With her husband Carl, she discovered how glycogen is broken down & eventually stored as an energy source (aka the โCori cycleโ). They also identified the Cori ester. beckerexhibits.wustl.edu/womenโฆ #HistoryRemix #science #history

Canonical's STEAM SNAP Is Too BROKEN For Valve
For a while now Canonical has been working on there Steam Snap, and whilst I think it's a neat idea for sure it's certainly not been a neat idea for the Valv...YouTube
ch0ccyra1n is leaving fedi soon reshared this.
I am still coping, malding, and seething about Pop!_OS stopping the intermediate releases because it was the one distro that offered those without Canonical's BS
I stg if they don't resume after COSMIC is ready
Honestly I kind of expected this. Maybe not issues to this extent, but I knew it would never be 1-1 compatible.
The snap system can be very inflexible when it comes to certain things like permissions or the way it operates. I remember having an issue with nextcloud server, I think it was trying to make it access something from the system. I found out that the sandbox around snaps can be pretty tight for system level resources. Steam probably has similar issues.

Not as bad as previous driver changelogs, were they entirely copy-pasted, but still a good few were in previous drivers.
