Palwold dev talks too much

“Can’t live without” is an overstatement, but here are mine:

• Kvaesitso, search focused android launcher. I used to really like nova launcher’s local search and navigated my phone mostly using that. But once gensture navigation became a thing I had to stop using nova and replicate the experience in Samsung launcher with various local search apps that were lacking in comparison. Tried to go back a couple times once gestures with 3rd party launchers got better but found my old setup still too ugly and sluggish to go back to. Recently I randomly came across Kvaesitso on fdroid and it was everything I ever wanted out of a launcher.

• Amberol music player. Not the ideal music player I’d like but at least it’s not Elisa.

• Kid3, audio file tag editor. It has much better workflow/automation than mp3tag that I used in windows, and it seems if you spend some effort on it you could add more automation to make it even better.

Looks better than I expected

Only upload TV and Radio shows that are PRODUCED IN A COMMONWEALTH COUNTRY or IRELAND. The UK is not included!

Also requires you choose a binary gender on account creation, demands your home ip address, requires you have 0.8+ ratio after downloading 35GB (which sounds impossible due to the limited user pool as a home seeder that doesn’t upload new torrents) or pay. Private trackers are creepy

Edit: it seems most popular shows don’t count towards download but do count towards uploads and that’s how they expect you to maintain ratio

I think lots of games would hit a cpu bottleneck before they reach 120 fps

I think it trades blows with 7800x3d in gaming and is behind 7950x, 9950x, 13900k, 14900k in productivity.

That site has a weird lack of x3d cpus… Top 3 tiers should have 7800x3d, next 2 7600x3d / 5800x3d, next 3 5700x3d as alternatives.

Also it would serve them well to separate higher tiers to gaming / workstation and recommend parts based on that. Otherwise they end up recommending 7950x3d at the highest tier despite it not being the best at anything

For real?

These are more like last 2 week but anyways:

• Finished Agent A after a year of hiatus.
• Got hdr to work in Dark Souls 2 with the graphics overhaul mod and finished getting the 4 big Souls.
• Got tired of the difficulty of Dark Souls 2 and decided to start a new random shooter from my library… Devil Daggers
• Had a management sim itch and gave another shot at FTL, never got to win. Half the time I lost in a single encounter to things like never landing a shot on the enemy ship due to shields + misses or 7 people teleporting to my ship and wrecking havok. Other times I got too greedy.
• Tried to figure out which way to go next in Dark Solus 2 by checking the wiki but kept getting sidetracked by things I might’ve missed.
• Also tried to quench the management itch with shapez, but didn’t like it much. Just made me crave the factorio dlc more. Amazing music though

Ubisoft stock tanks to 10 year low!

*Zooms out*

Yeah it’s definitely star wars outlaws guys

Guessing from how this change required 3+ implementations before it became official according to the gitlab page, maybe it’s a chicken and egg situation. Hdr is a lot of work so maybe people don’t want to implement an unfinalized version that might change

Wow the icon saga is finished!?

If anyone wants to throw away a couple hours, there was SO much discussion (and initially drama) over it: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/269

Source? This is using the same engine as Avatar frontiers and that can be played offline.

4chan, and it’s maxxing. It’s used used for ‘productive’ things incels do (for the improvement of their life) instead of dooming over how they’re incels

Early access tradition

The eff passphrase generator has about 2.5 bits of entropy per character (without word separators). Eff recommends 6 word passphrases, and with an avg word length of 7, that’s (only) 79.45 bits of entropy that won’t even fit in the 32 characters. If there wasn’t a password length limit it would be possible to saturate the hash entropy with a 20+ word & 102+ char passphrase.

I don’t like the new spidertron animation. It looks too jittery, unlike the gliding look of the old one. They should go with a 2-way symmetry instead of the 3 way one

It’s pretty common for programs to add firewall rules for themselves during setup. If you rely on manually blocking them after the fact they could have called back home already

Or a firewall that doesn’t rely on windows firewall, since programs will just whitelist themselves from it during installation

I really hope they fix the idle cpu usage or at least improve the turn times to match it
