Yeh people with ADHD could just educate their parents and teachers about how their brains work differently. And how do they not just diagnose themselves and get the meds to function in a society that is clearly not made for them to succeed. Total failure that’s entirely their fault.

When there is official plugin support, like there is for Obsidian, my take is that there isn’t enough resources to implement everything they would want to. Not sure about logseq.

But I get your point. Sometimes one’s own habits and preferences might stand in the way of exploring a different and possibly better approach.

If something supports plugins isn’t it also how it wants to be used if you install them? Overall a weird reason to restrict yourself.

 

I‘ve checked a few of the resources I found here but I seem to be unable to wrap my head around this.

I want to play one specific game purchased from GoG on my Steam Deck. It only has a windows installer. I don’t need a fancy launcher (at the moment). The game has low hardware requirements so should run fine via emulation/proton…

What’s the easiest way to install and add this game to game mode?

Edit: clarification on the launcher. I don’t necessarily need one. If it is the easiest way to get it done I still would consider installing one.

That’s the first thing I thought when I read this post and I don’t understand why you are not upvoted more.

OP wants me to take advice from the person who won the lottery and disregard all the others who sunk stupid amounts of money and got nothing to show for it? I’d rather hear them all and make an informed decision.

[–] brrt@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

Absolutely. I find that much more productive than the catchall evil.

It’s not about being nice for me. More about how humanity could grow out of this cycle. Be better prepared when the storm is over.

Do I think this needs to be stopped? Most definitely. Do I think we will learn anything from it? Probably not. Or way too little.

But like I said. This just might not be the time anymore to have the luxury being more nuanced.

I’d buy you one in return.

Yeh I’m with you. We might well be past the point where people can still come together. I also feel quite discouraged that things have escalated to this. But I’m still trying to keep a few of my principles and a bit of my humanity. I don’t believe there’s evil, its a term for scaring children or riling up people against each other in contexts like religion or other groups. It’s just circumstances and humans who are not fit to deal with them in a healthy way.

I‘m sure our opinions don’t differ too much, I’m totally with you on many things.

What I’m trying to get at is that we end up with 2 groups of people who call each other evil. Because that’s what using these labels boils things down to. And whoever is stronger will come out on top and claim they righteously defeated the evil others. There no discourse to be had, there’s no nuance. Only hate. Which as we can see is also very easy to weaponize.

It’s exactly this rhetoric that demonizes and dehumanizes the other that got us here.

Humans can be misguided and become really really shitty people. But labeling anyone evil is just lazy and won’t help make anything better. It just fuels the fire of this downward spiral.

At least that’s my thoughts.

Science has a really nice butt though, ngl

I mean, usually the side effects have qualifiers like „Common: mild headaches“ „Very Rare: become a vessel for satan to roam the earth and sow chaos“. Wouldn’t it indeed be nice to have this for the positive effects too?

Have you tried masochism?

Are there any well regarded brands in the EU that sell high quality short?

Love my Dickies shorts because I’ve found them to be well made and long lasting but am considering options if I can find equivalent products.

 

If yes, which word(s) and how does it manifest?

(I’ll leave mine as a comment)

 

I’m just looking for a simple 2D floor planner that is easy to use and has the ability to show measurements.

The two most recommended open source tools I’ve seen have shortcomings.

Sweet Home 3D:

  • Very 3D centric, which over complicates things.
  • Project was recently acquired/handed off to a company and the iOS version is published by “AI Photo Editor Lab SRL”

draw.io / diagrams.net:

  • Very finicky to set up and create floor plans
  • To display measurements one has to add measurement objects to every wall/object

Does anyone have other recommendations?

 

I’m looking for a way to keep an eye on open source software I’m using, especially if there are detrimental changes. Like for example when there’s an acquisition (Raivo Authenticator) or the project has not been updated in a long time (potentially posing a security risk).

But I don’t want to have to read about every project, just the ones I’m using.

Anyone got any ideas?

 

Does anyone know why there are no dedicated Authenticator apps made by for example Proton or Bitwarden?

I’m aware that they have TOTP baked into their password managers but you still need to have at least one separate solution to log into your vault.

 

Is there a Lemmy app for iPad that has split screen like Narwhal for Reddit had? Post list on the left, content/comments on the right side.
