The ODBC support, while not important for gaming, is really good to hear about. Lots of weird proprietary Windows software uses it for generic database support.

just tried it. Nice look, was missing the mouse at first. Setting the keyboard was a bit unexpected - being able to set a second key for things would also been nice. These are no problem compared to the lags. Sometimes it's fluid, sometimes the game just hangs - I hear the sound of crashing but see no new frames. Happens often and seems like loading parts of the map or something. Uplayable for me.

The best COSMIC fix ever, I can see how a problem like this stays in the code base for so long. There's only 2 cases where this realistically happens:
Public networks which do authentication later than network joining
Psychos who have no sense of network security

@Geniusak Most of them have some form of post connection checks, usually you need to open up a web browser

Loved this episode of the @sustainoss podcast, about @ntnsndr’s book Governable Spaces: Democratic Design for Online Life.

I’ve been plagued by frustration for so long now that our online spaces don’t provide sufficient tooling for shared negotiation, instead defaulting to blunt mechanisms for shutting things down.

This was a great discussion about how things could be better.

@Twitter_expat Yes, I used a reflector, although I don't have a holder for it so I was kind of balancing it with my elbow.

extinct mammals of Scotland 🐺🐗 can you imagine if they could return?

Scotland is currently ranked 212th out of 240 countries in terms of how its biodiversity is doing, it's pretty bleak out here. Destructive farming practices/overgrazing, polluting industries, and species persecution for the sake of shooting are some of the reasons why there is such a wildlife crisis

Currently a critical situation in Paniai Region where the #Indonesian military have displaced large numbers of refugees.

"Indigenous peoples have been displaced from more than a million hectares of cleared rainforest to make way for transmigrants. Forest dwellers have been expelled to malaria-infested lower altitudes. Their rights are annulled by law."
