Gnome 2 was the default when I switched. I stay mostly because of familiarity and inertia. There has to be a really good reason to switch. Maybe soon. KDE implemented workspaces-per-screen. That could be a killer feature that would get me to switch. I loved that when I was running AwesomeWM.

Technology@beehaw.org•A missing underscore sent innocent man to prison for 18 months
60·2 months agoSearching these devices produced no evidence relevant to the case. Nothing linked Klayme to the girl. No intimate images were found. Klayme did have a Kik account, but cops couldn’t even show that he had accessed the service during the period in question.
How was he convicted to begin with?
Woodworking is surprisingly popular among tech folk. It seems some hobbies just click better for techies. Bouldering is another example.
Ohhh, good one!
Have you considered any of the crafting/survival games? There are a lot if good ones!

2·4 months agoI’ve returned to “Foundry” for the latest early access update that added trains. I haven’t played since the EA release last year. It’s shaping up to be pretty good! All the factory goodness from Factorio and Satisfactory but with Minecraft lije destructible terrain.

Ohhh, that’s awesome! There are a few characters I continuously use the Gnome Character Dictionary for.
So, what is it? Rooter? Or rauter?

3·8 months agoI’m about 40 hours deep into “Star Rupture”, a pretty fun factory builder / survival / tower defense game that was recently released in early access. I really like it so far.

13·8 months agoYour first mistake was using Ubuntu on a production server. Canonical has made more than enough questionable decisions over the past decade that using Ubuntu for a production system should be a red flag.

2·8 months agoThe big advantage of the robot over human pals is that you can send items directly to your ship. In coop you need to carry it. The biggest downside is that it uses soooo much ammo when acting as a ship gunner. I’m flying the small ship and put on the lance railgun. The long reload time ensures that the bot can’t waste all my ammo.

1·8 months agoSame for me! I just unlocked the cargo dispatcher and the tier 2 building mats to build them, so I wiped my entire spaghetti factory and I’m rebuilding in a nice bus layout, transporting in the remote ores using the dispatchers. I like that there’s more combat in the game. I was a tad disappointed that, when I entered a cave for the first time carrying a lot of guns and ammo, I only found some plants and crystals. I was prepping for a big fight with bugs hiding from the rupture! 😄

Linux@programming.dev•Exploring Dash to Dock: (Probably) The Most Downloaded GNOME Extension
3·8 months agoIt really depends on your workflow. I use a tiling extension and 9 fixed workspaces. I have no need for dash-to-dock. I reassign a bunch of hotkeys to make working with 9 workspaces easier, but the rest is all Gnome defaults and it works just fine for me.

Gaming@beehaw.org•'Friendslop' dominated 2025 by proving time and time again that graphics are overrated
181·9 months agoBoomer shooter doesn’t sound too derogatory to me. Friendslop does.

That passkeys suck and that username + password + optional totp managed by a password manager is by far to easiest solution?
