As much as I love a good light weight DE like XFCE, KDE plasma has been the best experience on multiple distros including Debian and Arch. It's the closest thing to an accessible windows-like experience with all the customization you wish you had in windows with so many applets and widgets that fill in so many gaps in other DEs.

Wow, looks like it was a sensible option to stick with EXT4 this build. Neat that there's some competition in this space, but ol' reliable just keeps on trucking.

Which buzzwords are you talking about? I genuinely see none in the title.

I get a chai latte multiple times a week. They’re excellent. Iced tho so no art. Milk is pretty great.

What’s more, all keyless cars still have a fob with proximity and if the fob dies, they legally have to have a way to start the car without the fob battery which is why they all have an nfc reader somewhere (usually in a cup holder) so you can put you dead fob on it and the car will start like normal.

That’s really unnecessary, even as a joke.

Is this game accessible for someone who knows absolutely nothing about the series?

A predatory bird, which would give me extra cones and rods to see more colors / spectrum as well as possibly telescopic vision.

A shark, so I can swim better and breathe underwater. Then maybe I won’t be so afraid of large bodies of water.

For anyone interested in game development: Balatro is made with Love2D. Which means the exe you download from steam can be unzipped using just about any zip program (might need to change the file extension from exe to zip) and the whole source code and 2D asset files are available for perusing. Not even obfuscated, full variable names and comments available to inspect as a real world example of a working game that has sold like hotcakes because the end result is good. Let it inspire you, let it teach you :)

Absolutely, which is why I said Reddit is too far gone. This is also why I was advocating for ways to integrate paid subs without limiting content access or providing priority publishing.

I’m not convinced it’s 100% the worst idea though. The fediverse is entirely self and donor funded. Paid subs as an extension to free tiers might be a viable solution for a platform like this. Not Reddit because they’re too far gone, but if there was some kind of enhanced feature set along with improved moderation and overall program support by way of paid subs, it’s not all that different from how the fediverse operates. Of course I would argue that paid subs should not be limited in content or offer any means of priority publishing and completely optional for users and anons alike seems like a fair idea.

It’s especially irresponsible because you just know that this kid and his team (if he has one) gave in to any and all demands of the trump campaign. No leverage, nothing in return, no facts, no value.
