It has been annoying me so much seeing so many spam sites on Google, when searching for "Steam Deck" to see anything I might have missed...

So I made a Ublock Origin list to remove them from results.

Big Ambitions drops Native Linux support shortly after the Steam release gamingonlinux.com/2023/03/big-โ€ฆ #Linux #Gaming #SteamDeck
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

fair call to be honest. Linux is a small market and if it can be covered by proton until the market is established it will help devs like this who canโ€™t afford the development and debugging hit. Sure native would be better but the dev expense likely doesnโ€™t justify the sales.
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

As someone rightfully (in my opinion) posted in GoL comments: the game is made with Unity and many titles using it have better performances with Proton than a native build. I am also quite disappointed, yet I feel fortunate Proton is a thing now. But this is not a good signal for Linux gaming in general.


Having a sustainable website is crucial to me: mine scores 100 on Ecograder.

I do care for the environment. Pointless data information that travels through the internet is not free, it has a carbon weight.

Every kilobyte saved correspond to an amount of CO2.

What do people achieve with that compulsion to add featured images that aren't theirs?

in reply to Simone Silvestroni (M2M)

I've seen some tools before that claim to calculate environmental impact of websites but have really flawed results. Ecograder has a really helpful breakdown. Thank you for sharing this.

You may have heard that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change - the #IPCC - released a new #climate report.

Hereโ€™s the most important take home:

There are *still* so many feasible & effective opportunities to reduce greenhouse gas emissions & adapt to #climatechange available right now.

Climate solutions will improve #food, energy & water security, benefit global health, promote equity, conserve biodiversity & boost the economy.

WHITE SUPREMACISTS FEAR GENDER NON-CONFORMITY

1/2
The idea underlying white male supremacy is at least 6000 years old

Class hierarchy - which arose with the city state - came out of earlier patriarchal notions of women's "natural" inferiority

The ancients held gender nonconformity to be "womanly", hence "weak"

This "womanly, hence weak" label became attached to other out-groups as politically required

๐Ÿด "Are You An #Anarchist? The Answer May Surprise You!" If you believe in self-organization and voluntary association, and if you think that #power corrupts, you might be an anarchist. ๐Ÿค And these are principles "that the rich and powerful have always found extremely dangerous", as #DavidGraeber stated in 2009.

I have problems with dumb.esmailelbob.xyz/ and quetre.esmailelbob.xyz/

I will try to assign a new IP for the server and if it did not work, I will sadly take these instances down...or if I can run VPN and use it's IP for only those sites (genius.com and quora.com)

Give me ideas, darn it!

Physicist Chien-Shiung Wu produced the first experimental evidence of quantum entanglement in 1949 but faced both sexism and racism in gaining recognition for this and her other achievements. Many scientists believe she should have won a Nobel. scientificamerican.com/articleโ€ฆ

Not to toot my own horn, but one of the scientists who worked on this project was an SAT student of mine when he was in high school. So, you know, you're welcome!!
