  • How video games help trans people find gender euphoria

    Jump

  • For the record, I am not doing what you say. You either didn't understand my comment or whatever the case is here. I am saying that your or others gender should not be a factor deciding how games are developed. The mod log of removed content, in case someone believes what you said. So don't tell people I was forcing my opinion on others: https://beehaw.org/modlog?page=1&actionType=ModRemoveComment&userId=442071

  • GNOME and Mozilla Discuss Proposal to Disable Middle Mouse Paste on Linux

    Jump

  • I don't understand what the problem here is. But why the option exists? If someone does not care, then why would someone have any say in such an option? You can't enforce people to care.

  • Best foss full page translation app?

    Jump

  • Well Firefox recently integrated a full webpage translation, fully done local on your system. It works pretty well in my experience.

  • It's actually surprising that this is not configurable already. At least in a GUI.

  • Super Mario 64 Romhack: Mario Builder 64 hit by DMCA from (allegedly Nintendo)

    Jump

  • Well Switch emulation is a different story. Especially because it was current gen and so on. But Mario 64 Romhacks and other game Romhacks from Nintendo (including reverse engineering code) usually is not touched by Nintendo.

    Jump

  • Funny enough its still available on Github (sadly only version 1.0 is there, not 1.1, I don't know why). The DMCA hit a fan community hosting Romhacks (only patch files).

  • Experienced software developers assumed AI would save them a chunk of time. But in one experiment, their tasks took 20% longer

  • What a wonderful statement.

  • GNOME and Mozilla Discuss Proposal to Disable Middle Mouse Paste on Linux

    Jump

  • I guess one could create shortcuts to a tool like wl-copy and wl-paste to either copy or paste content to primary selection (or regular clipboard for that matter). So in that case a simple script could run the command and in your desktop environment you setup a shortcut to run the script.

    Yes its hacky, but in Linux nothing is impossible. :-) (unless it is...)

  • GNOME and Mozilla Discuss Proposal to Disable Middle Mouse Paste on Linux

    Jump

  • Then I tell you something that might either blow your mind or be useful in future (or just being fun fact):

    On Linux there is the regular copy/paste clipboard, which you already know how it works. But then there is this primary clipboard called primary selection too, that is independent from normal clipboard. Text will be copied to primary selection when you select a text (in example in Firefox). Just by selection the text with the mouse is enough and it will not affect the normal clipboard. Then you can middle click the text from primary clipboard.

  • GNOME and Mozilla Discuss Proposal to Disable Middle Mouse Paste on Linux

    Jump

  • They only discuss to disable it by default, not removing the functionality.

  • GNOME and Mozilla Discuss Proposal to Disable Middle Mouse Paste on Linux

    Jump

  • The essence of the article:

    The discussions, visible in Mozilla’s Phabricator revision D277804 and a linked GNOME gsettings-desktop-schemas merge request, focus on disabling the traditional primary selection paste by default.

    Mozilla proposes changing the default behavior of the Firefox browser on Unix builds so that pressing the middle mouse button no longer pastes text by default.

    The functionality will be there and can be enabled. The reasoning:

    The author of the revision frames the current behavior as a source of confusion and accidental pastes, especially when users press the middle button without expecting the clipboard contents to be inserted into text fields.

  • Future generations using Ai to automate this kind of thing will make it even worse probably.

    Jump

  • Gamescope is developed by Valve and used in Steam Deck. But you can install it on any system. You can think of it as a commandline application, to run games with. It can fix issues you or give some options and should make games run better if they are problematic otherwise.

  • Gamers desert Intel in droves, as Steam share plummets from 81% to 55.6% in just five years

    Jump

  • Also lot of handheld options like Steam Deck use AMD as well. Not sure how big of a factor this is overall.
