those steam machines are probably a natural extension of the development work already being done. It'll be interesting to see what the future holds 😀

unicode proposal: you should be able to send an emoji with a specifier for which image set and version you want.

sometimes you want to send 😔, and you don't mind which version is displayed. but sometimes you want to send 😔, and have it specifically be the Samsung TouchWiz 7.0 (2016) version.

no other iteration of 😔 captures the feeling of "sigh... if only my girlfriend Chiaki Nanami from Danganronpa 2 was real... then i could be her Ultimate Gamer Husband instead of studying for this lame physics exam..." quite like this one

Lynnesbian reshared this.

in reply to Inga stands with 🇺🇦 🇵🇸

@IngaLovinde yes but ideally every client would have to contain every iteration of every emoji set, so i could just send U+1F614 PENSIVE FACE followed by U+200D ZERO WIDTH JOINER and U+EA07 TOUCHWIZ SEVEN MODIFIER

or, U+1F914 THINKING FACE followed by U+200D ZERO WIDTH JOINER and U+EA08 BLOBCAT ONE MODIFIER :blobcatthinking:

China, EEUU y Europa dominan mercado de vehículos eléctricos; contaminación persiste

This and the Google product manager for the Pixel image manipulation tools saying you have to "clean up" your photos (remove people, erase incidental objects, change lighting) so that the image records the "true memory" of the moment (meaning, of course, the false memory of it).

Gotta hand it to the Fediverse, people made their own Starter Pack thing (like Bluesky).

So obviously I'm jumping in to help you find people to follow.

My first pack is Gaming News: fedidevs.com/s/MjI3/

Feel free to reply here for suggested accounts for me to add to it. But please don't suggest completely random communities and people. It's for account posting proper gaming news.

Boosts appreciated.

New Guide: How to install extra software, apps and games on SteamOS and Steam Deck gamingonlinux.com/guides/view/…

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

Additionally, if someone wants to install multiple pieces of software at once, they can go on packagepicker.co and pick up what they want from the limited pool, the site will then generate a single command to run on the terminal (obligatory disclaimer to always be cautious of random scripts on the internet)

It's conceptually similar to Ninite on Windows

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

I tried #GemRB a couple of years ago but got the impression that it still wasn't a good experience, but still a curious experiment.

The worst part was how unstable it was, causing frequent crashes more often than the original game engines. This would be one of the most desirable traits, improved stability and crash management like you get with #OpenMW (The Morrowind open source engine project).

Has it gotten better? I can't seem to find any recent gameplay or reviews of it.

@msbellows thin section of a meteorite in cross polarized light; the meteorite has Martian signature; "Olivine macrocrysts (to 1.5 mm) and microphenocrysts (to 0.4 mm) are set in a finer groundmass of patchily zoned pyroxene, plagioclase (maskelynite), Ti-poor chromite, ilmenite, pyrrhotite and minor merrillite" (LPI)

I found his Instagram, he tags his uploads with "AI artwork" and "generative art", so definitely AI-generated. Anyhow, a disclaimer would've sufficed.

I feel like if I accomplish nothing else in life, I at least manage to get a few students a year to use password managers!

I personally use KeePass, which if combined with cloud storage (I use Nexcloud via @mayfirst) gets you the convenience of a cloud service without any company holding your keys.
