  • The EU smartphone repairability law will take effect on 20 June

    Jump

  • That may be overestimating how much most customers look up anything about a phone before buying it and how much they care throwing their phone away every 3 years

  • PRAGMATA - First Contact Trailer [releases in 2026]

    Jump

  • Hi, I'm stuff

  • Steam Deck / SteamOS hits 19,000 games rated Verified and Playable

    Jump

  • I honestly think Proton is one of the most impressive pieces of software of the last decade

  • New PC incoming, should i stick to Mint?

    Jump

  • I'm currently using Mint, and doing regular backups with Timeshift. I see two possible reasons to switch in the future: if there's ever an update that breaks my system and I don't manage to recover a backup, or newer releases become incompatible with my hardware. So far none of this has happened so I don't see a reason to change.

  • Young men are 'playing videogames all day' instead of getting jobs because they can mooch off of free healthcare, claims congressman

  • I'm flabbergasted

  • Step 1: download the app ??? Step 6: discuss war plans with your fellow government officials

  • Google introduces new light Gemma 3 LLMs

    Jump

  • I didn't know about Chatbot arena, turns out its a 100% subjective rating system where visitors are asked compare 2 LLMs and vote for the "best" after giving them one prompt and displaying their output side by side (sending more than 2 prompts crashed the page for me). That's a crazy metric to include in your promo material imo.

  • We need to decide on a genre name for Vampire Survivors-like games before a really terrible one sticks - No, Steam, they're not "bullet hell action roguelikes".

    Jump

  • I like auto-shooter. It makes the connection with auto clickers, and they are both games you play with your brain turned off and a lot of crap is flying around on the screen for spectacle

  • Rift of the NecroDancer - The Rift Opens February 5, 2025 - Steam News

    Jump

  • I'm all for a company that avoids crunch if they can afford it

  • Fresh from a layoff bloodbath that cost over 2,500 jobs, Microsoft is already thinking about dropping the big bucks on more acquisitions

    Jump

  • OOO HYEAH IM ACQUIRINGGGGGGG

  • Patient gamers, which games have you discovered/played this week?

    Jump

  • I got into Guild Wars 2 last week. I really like the fast progression, it's the opposite to every other MMO i've tried that makes you grind hours for a level. I'll reach max level pretty soon after only 10 hours or so playing

  • 600W 5090 (allegedly)

    Jump

  • BURNIN DOWN THE HOUSE

  • Concord Director Steps Down As Studio Behind Historic PlayStation Flop Waits For Sony's Decision

    Jump

  • Just because the game failed doesn't mean the whole studio needs to be scrapped... Artists and programmers could still get their chance to shine, without the top level decision makers steering the game towards dated formulas like hero shooters

  • The Swapper; A neat little puzzle game from the mid 2010's, which was just yesterday and definitely not 10 years ago.

    Jump

  • It used to be my favorite game before I played Outer Wilds. That was a while back, aah the nostalgia.. The Swapper's graphics are also quite unique and aged pretty well I think.

  • Stardew Valley creator swears 'on the honor of my family name' that he'll never charge money for DLC

    Jump

  • I mean, he's in a similar situation as Toby fox. He has the freedom to spend as much time as he wants on developing updates without worrying about money, so he doesn't need to charge anything or ask money from players.

  • Crowdstrike fucks up half of the IT Sector and beyond

    Jump

  • The wallstreetbets post having been created a few hours before the shortage is wild

  • slicing arrays

    Jump

  • static typing:

    • afraid to make mistakes
    • restricts your freedom
    • thinks i'm too stupid to know the types of my variables
    • years of programming yet no real world use found for Option<Option<Result

    • bold, fearless
    • null pointer exceptions? catch them and return 0
    • can use eval, easily extendable

  • Distro recommendations and Nvidia advice?

    Jump

  • Linux Mint makes it very easy to install Nvidia drivers and Optimus. I have used it in the past on a laptop with a similar configuration. It's also quite robust, probably more than Garuda.

  • Google-hosted malvertising leads to fake Keepass site that looks genuine

    Jump

  • That's true. Also I guess domain names in most ideogram-based languages cannot be meaningfully converted to ASCII. The best detection method I'm aware of is detecting a mix of different alphabets in the domain, but I imagine even this has a lot of false positives
