  • Open Source 'Eclipse Theia IDE' Exits Beta to Challenge Visual Studio Code -- Visual Studio Magazine

  • It's still a hot mess. Helped my wife set it up for developing a Java webapp with Tomcat and it's such a mess to set up, compared to IntelliJ that I could just set up a Springboot easily.

    Are you still living with your parents/family?

    Jump

  • Me too. I do remote work. Our rural home is comfortably big enough to accommodate 5 people. It's cheaper to share bills, no rent, CoL is cheaper in the rural area too.

    My baby bonds well with my parents too.

  • Are there any games you're planning to pick up during the Steam and GOG sales?

    Jump

  • It's the only game from FromSoft that I've ever beaten. I find QoL much more bearable compared to DS1. Parrying allowed me to stand toe-to-toe against bosses also. No more rolling around.

  • Are there any games you're planning to pick up during the Steam and GOG sales?

    Jump

  • I'm thinking about either Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth or Warhammer40k: Rogue Trader.

    However, I wouldn't be playing them anytime soon with my backlog. So, I'm likely to just sit this sale out.

  • Your favorite video game doesn't need a remake | Digital Trends

    Jump

  • Was it Remake for DS or was it just a remaster?

    To me, remasters are like StarCraft remastered that gameplay stays the same, but the graphics got upgraded.

    Remakes are like FF7, Dead Space or System Shock that is made from scratch.

  • Lords of the Fallen reboot Lords of the Fallen is getting a sequel in 2026, probably called Lords of the Fallen

    Jump

  • Yeah, it's clungy.

    So far, I like that attacks are well telegraphed. Not holding for seconds, then coming down on a flash like in ER or LoP, but I haven't even reached the second major boss yet.

    Jump

  • Personally, I like the new one over Lies of P. The transversal with the mix of the umbral and the living world feels less linear with some puzzle. Mobs are annoying, and weapons feel clunky, though.

    Let's see if I will grow to resent it more as I progress deeper.

  • I Will Fucking Piledrive You if You mention AI Again

    Jump

  • A lot of spicy quotes I could steal.

    I'm going to ask ChatGPT how to prepare a garotte and then I am going to strangle you with it, and you will simply have to pray that I roll the 10% chance that it freaks out and tells me that a garotte should consist entirely of paper mache and malice.

  • xkcd #2948: Electric vs Gas

    Jump

  • Funny, that's why I picked EV as a family car. I could turn on the AC and let my daughter and my dog sleep without any brum brum.

  • Here’s what we’re working on in Firefox

    Jump

  • Finally, user profiles.

  • Wanting to move from conventional to ergo mech. Am overwhelmed. Send help.

    Jump

  • How is it?

    I was interested in it also but, other than modules, it looks like a traditional split keyboard that I could get for way cheaper, but damn those modules look juicy.

  • Do others feel somewhat conflicted talking positively about commercial goods/services?

    Jump

  • But if a product is so damn great, do you want a person whom you care about to use an alternative product and have a worse experience?

    When I see people using LastPass, I feel obligated to inform them about BitWarden, because it's free, open sourced and audited.

  • What are some mainstream game series where you really do need to start from the first game?

    Jump

  • Solid is a decent starting point. I think the only notable recurring character is Grey Fox, which could get you confused, and that's it.

  • My wife was unimpressed by Vim

    Jump

  • You have to adopt Emacs and show her that she can even play Tetris on it.

  • This also applies to a lot of RPG fans

    Jump

  • OBJECTION!

  • Three monitors, and i feel insulted

    Jump

  • I used to have a cheap mechanical keyboard that has side rainbow RGB panels that can't be turned off. I thought that would be turned off when I turn off the backlight. Nope.

  • What product brings a lot more value than its cost to purchase?

    Jump

  • Do you have to model a replacement part all by yourself? Or is it easy to find blueprints online?

    I imagine that if I have to model them myself, they would come out wrong most of the time.

  • Redis is no longer OSS

    Jump

  • I guess it's things like AWS Elasticahe that made them want to provide their own service without sharing the code with their soon to be competitors.

  • What are y'all buying on the steam sale?

    Jump

  • Warning. The game only has like 2 bosses. It uses rooms that keep spawning mobs as replacements for normal bosses.
