"But I only use twitter for 'art'", or "I just follow a few small communities" are the usual excuses these days.

I hear the same excuses as I did for Reddit, only I'd consider Twitter usage considerably less defensible :)

Unless, of course, they're in all the GPUs that people want.

...It's unfortunately more likely that the majority of people won't notice or care, though.

They're giving real "why couldn't they just protest peacefully (after years of peaceful protest with no results)" energy

The previous method actually allowed both users to play online/multiplayer games together, so this is still sort of a downgrade.

Sorry, Ctrl + Win (or relevant OS button) + Esc, but yeah it's been pretty useful in a pinch

Hm, I think that's what Ctrl + Meta + Esc* does for me on KDE? Unless there's more to x-kill than just killing windows/processes with a mouse click.

Edit: Originally said Ctrl + Esc, shame on my poor memory

Alright, now name a game where you'd have to do that for thousands or even hundreds of consecutive hours, especially on a portable console.

They actually specifically moved production to Foxconn Vietnam to avoid this... Only for Vietnam to get hit by 46% tariffs right after the Direct

I think it's more the weak yen than tariffs, though it's pretty unfortunate that Nintendo apparently moved their production to Vietnam right before the country was hit with a 46% tax...

Thanking the heavens my distro doesn't have a mascot to embarrass me with (yet)

I dunno about going down entirely, but bits and pieces (like SMS verification) definitely broke while they were undoing work and cutting "expenses" (like office leases)

Ha, in their defense, half the fluff they put on those bills are for anti-counterfeit measures

With what hardware, a 7900XTX?!

They're asking why it's "standard litres per minute", instead of just "litres per minute"

Thanks, that should work for me. I'm indeed using KDE, so I'll hunt for that option when I get the chance to

I've used Krita on and off for a few years, but it's still a bit more than I'm looking for... I'm definitely gonna give those others a try though, thanks!

Oh? Exciting news! I've been hoping for some progress on HDR games, and I have a few holdout friends whose only barrier to leaving Windows was having their HDR games work seamlessly

HDR isn't all that great for gaming yet, in my opinion. It takes too much tweaking just to get it working, because apparently games/proton still aren't able to natively pass that metadata to Wayland?

Running every applicable game or all of Steam through Gamescope brings its own problems with how it handles the window, so I end up never using it at all. I just want it to be as simple as it is on Windows, man! 😩

Also, VRR seems to make my screen flicker at an unnoticeably-high-but-still-irritating rate at random whenever I alt+tab, never figured that out yet...

Finally, I do wish there was a simpler, more paint.net-like editor rather than GIMP, and I'm sure it's out there somewhere, but otherwise basically every thing on that list of features works well enough for me.

It doesn't have to specifically be a network drive, I bumped into this exact problem with the ntfs Windows drives I didn't want to reformat after I switched. Only issue is fstab never worked after weeks of trial and error, so I had to use udisks and just elevate its permissions instead.

Well, you still see the blocked message, just not the contents of that message. They can also still see your messages, they just can't react with emotes. This is just feedback I've seen from people who use the feature, as some people (not necessarily me) take issue with these things
