Damn, missed.

Probably won't suit you for a daily but there are postmarketOS ports in testing for the Tab E. Could be fun to fool around with if you can't find an actual use for it.

Did we just skip the trial?

I'm more concerned about the pb&j bacon cheeseburger. What the fuck is wrong with the Amerikkan palate.

A subscription fee for a fucking license plate? We already have that, it's called registration.

It's worth noting that Ad Standards is the industry self-regulatory body. They don't do anything pro-actively, and nothing they do is legally enforceable. They don't have the power to issue fines or enforce takedowns and all their recommendations are just that -- recommendations. Member organisations tend to abide by the industry rules, but they themselves had a hand in writing those rules. All that really amounts to is the occasional withdrawal of an ad -after- it's been running long enough to have complaints received and reviewed. In the meantime, the damage is frequently already done. More frequently it's a case of "we have investigated ourselves and found we've done nothing wrong" (note the number of "no breach" decisions in the article). Non-members, OTOH, are under no obligation to do anything at all (the Gotham City ad in the article is still running AFAIK, despite being declared a breach -- Gotham City are not a member of Ad Standards). All it really does is acts as a way for people to feel like their complaints are being heard while fundamentally changing nothing.

Straight to the recycle bin, then.

Third-party game tools (self.linux_gaming)
submitted 4 months ago by Strayce to c/linux_gaming@lemmy.world

I'm pretty deadset on switching my Legion Go over to Bazzite (for the controller support). One of the games I play a lot of is Elite Dangerous. While I'm quite sure I can get that up and running, there's a few third-party tools I use like EDMC and Voice Attack. EDMC and the like I'm fairly sure just need to get pointed to the logfiles, but I'm not sure how well VA will operate in a Linux environment. Anyone out there dealt with anything like this? It's not a deal breaker if it just doesn't work, but I'd like to know ahead of time.

Normally I'd go to r/mousereview for this kind of thing, but fuck that website.

Can anybody recommend me a mouse that isn't going to fuck out inside of a couple years? Was previously using an Ironclaw until the USB port went, replaced it with a Basilisk and the scroll on that one's started to jitter up and down now. I have fairly large hands and tend to use knuckle claw grip. Wireless is a must, builtin battery preferred, but requiring a single AA isn't a dealbreaker. I don't mind heavy, prefer a little weight tbh.

But the guy behind it is a god-tier troll, and Cory Doctorow generally doesn't suck IMO. Enjoy.

If you're up for something, or down for something, it means the same thing.

If you fill in a form or fill out a form, it means the same thing.

English is fucked.

Hexbear appreciation comment:

My instance doesn't defederate as a general rule. It has its upsides and downsides -- I still have dbzer0 and lemmygrad, but I also have to put up with occasional bullshit from exploding heads and similar. Gotta say it's nice having you folks pop up in my feed to balance out the bad takes.
