For me it's pretty likely to replace it, at least on my laptop. Don't get me wrong, I love Plasma, but per-screen workspaces and native window tiling are two features I never knew how much I needed before I tried out Hyprland some months back, especially on a single screen. While I'll definitely miss the desktop panels and extensive settings menu, I'll give those up for the other features without much of a second thought.

Meiner Erfahrung nach machen die eher Probleme mit Wayland. X11 funktioniert super mit meiner Nvidia GPU, Wayland eher weniger.

In terms of 40K recipes, corpse starch is pretty easy. De-bone a (generally human, but others can work in a pinch) corpse, grind up the rest, add salt, and pack it in a can.

In a literal translation it would be, but considering it's not a big bang, but the big bang, it'd be "Urknall" which I'm not sure how best to literally translate to English, but it's something along the lines of "bang of origin" or "original bang".

That doesn't make the tweet any less wrong though, this is just semantics.

There is, yes, but it's pointless. I think some people are missing the point of Alyx being a VR game, the game would suck pretty bad in pancake mode. It's the intricate interactions with the world you simply can't get with a mouse and keyboard that make it special compared to other Half Life games. They didn't just make a regular Half Life game and said "well we're just gonna force this to be in VR now", they made a VR game and set it in the Half Life universe.

Somewhat hot take... I'd argue Boneworks (not Bonelab) was "better", at least if you're used to VR and if you judge by freedom and replay value. Don't get me wrong, playing through Half Life Alyx was fun and engaging, but to me it had little to no replay value, since for all it did great in visuals, audio, accessibility, and especially story, it failed dramatically in physics. Since I played Alyx right after Boneworks, I kept trying to pick stuff up which I ended up not being able to for larger objects, and the first time I tried to knock a Combine over the head with a pipe I was so sorely disappointed. Alyx has absolutely everything Boneworks is missing, yet that physics core is what kept me coming back to the latter. It really clicked for me when I noticed how many things in Boneworks one can solve in alternate ways by "abusing" physics. Climbing is a learned skill and combat can be as much shooting as it can be using knives, fists, shoving someone off a ledge, or grabbing an enemy and throwing it at others. It's what truly made me realize how much potential VR had, being able to interact with a full physics simulation, where even your own body is a physics object, with your physical hands is amazing.

Proton is based on Wine, when people say Wine in a gaming context, there's a decent chance they just mean Proton. Also there's absolutely no need for gaming distros in this situation, gaming works out of the box on any (semi-normal) distro, the most you'll have to do is flick a switch in Steam.

Edit: Or in this case with the Sims install Lutris I guess, since it's an EA game, but that also isn't much more difficult

I'd encourage use of StreetComplete, you can walk around your local area and get lots of points to survey with data on street widths or businesses' opening times. Imagine if all the people who were busy with Pokemon Go used that, OpenStreetMap would be nigh perfect in terms of data.

If you read the actual article, there are two things that stand out:

The changes apply to employees at non-union locations.

and

Other benefits for non-union workers include an additional week of vacation after 30 years of employment and vacation for new employees during their first year.

So from my understanding you may very well be correct, instead of trying to block unions through negative reinforcement, they try to block them by rewarding you for not joining one.

In my experience not just sometimes, but rather commonly. It often feels like the native Linux version, if it is even available, gets far fewer bug fixes - not like I can blame them, considering the far lower amount of Linux players, but sometimes I wonder why they even bother with it in the first place if they don't want to bother with focusing on it, with how good Proton is.

Note that it doesn't mean metadata is encrypted. They may not know what you sent, but they may very well know you message your mum twice a day and who your close friends are that you message often, that kinda stuff. There's a good bit you can do with metadata about messages combined with the data they gather through other services.

I bet Nintendo has a lot of patent violations to choose from. They have a patent on such bangers as, rephrased from legal speech to human speech: "An air mount automatically turning into a ground mount upon landing" Source

According to Nintendo, if I understand this correctly, they have the sole legal right to make a bird mount that can also sprint on the ground if needed, because that sure was a special idea.

There are feet in the camera's face within... eight seconds. I'm surprised, but I can't say I'm shocked.

Aside from that, it is a curious decision to make the first person camera a woman. I thought their target audience would be young men? It's certainly a larger potential audience than lesbians, although hey, not like I mind that choice ;3

As a German, I'd very much like to throw the first stone at AFD-voters. And the second... and third.

With how absolutely entrenched the CDU is in our political system, this is about as bad as you could reasonably expect it to be. The CDU is an overall incredibly dominant party and the others are often competing for second place, which the AFD has gotten now. Them actually competing on that level is frankly terrifying.

It's likely a difference of emotion compared to logic. Emotionally they'd think "Damn it, now we need to check for such a weird specific edge-case, this is so annoying" while logically knowing it's better the tester caught it.

Yep, got Timeshift hooked up to make a snapshot each time I update my system and I can boot into them via GRUB. Haven't needed that so far, thankfully, but it's there just in case.

Btrfs because it sounded cool when I first read about it and worked fine so far :3

Oh yeah, that stuff is a pain and automated tests can only go so far. Also I know for me personally I do tend to neglect mobile a little just because I much prefer designing and developing for larger screens, and I doubt I'm the only one, so on mobile more will slip through the cracks when it comes to these tiny changes.

Notably modern browsers can simulate phones, tablets, TVs, really all kinds of screens. I personally use that mode a lot to test the mobile variant, but nearly all bugs are purely CSS-related (at least in my experience) when it comes to a mobile-desktop discrepancy. Either way, for food delivery and stuff like that I'd really expect the devs to develop primarily for mobile, so that's surprising to hear.
