I’m proud of you and your pepper OP.

I really like the tinker aspect of working with plants. It’s fun to figure out what your little guys want over time and give it to them. I’ll follow the instructions for sunlight because I don’t want them to wither immediately, but reading a guide and doing an advanced setup from the start feels like playing a game with cheats on. Yield is nice, but learning about your plants by working with them over time is just so fulfilling.

Anyways, I want to see your herb box.

I’m back on Windows 11 for the first length of time in a while, after a hardware switch.

It’s aggravating as hell with all the popups and embedded ads. My last update just straight up failed and had to revert.

I also don’t get what Windows users are talking about when they say Linux is harder. Every time I have to change a minor setting in Windows, it feels like I’m picking through 20 years of legacy dialogs, and I never know which layer of legacy it’ll be buried in.

The line between “meat substitute” and “regular veggie dish” is kinda bullshit anyways:

Like, if I make my own seitan from scratch and use it in unique ways is that meat substitute?

If I make a roux, and make it salty and a little sour, is that a queso substitute or just a roux?

If I crumble firm tofu and pan fry it until it’s a bit crispy, is that meat crumble substitute or is it just tofu crumbles? Am I sinning if I use tvp instead?

Makhani sauce uses cashew cream by default but if you take that same cashew cream in another dish, maybe you’re a big faker.

How much squash do I have to put in my patty before it flips from “burger” to “veggie fritter?”

It’s all silly.

10+ years ago there was something called Basket Note Pads that had the same blank canvas style note taking that onenote has now.

My heart broke in two when the project died because the metaphor wasn’t popular at the time. It’d be so well positioned if it had stayed in development until today.

Gnome. Mostly vanilla except for some extended tiling for when I need it. Also sped up animations.

I bind Activities to an extra mouse button. But I’m also comfortable without that.

I’ve used a lot of stuff over the years. Started with the kde 3 series. I just don’t really want to do a lot of fiddling anymore, and find the default Gnome workflow to be a really good fit for me.

i-76. Mostly forgotten battle-driving sim where the cars feel heavy. Plays more like an old tank sim than gta. Retro 70s theming.

Cool. I’d love it if you post the final product when you’re done.

Seems like a cool project. It always felt like a captain’s chair to me.

Holy moly, I have a very similar chair but in red. I just got it so I could have a robust chair at bar-height.

My problem is that removing the footrest portion leaves mounting brackets poking out at whichever point you remove it. So I’m particularly interested in your process for chewing through any metal bits around there.

I don’t have trek-thematic advice, but I can tell you that little chrome armrest bit is the perfect size to rest a normal-sized trackball.

I’d usually be inclined to agree with you, except no one in gamedev would have balked at the final position. 2.5% revenue share over 1m is less than Unreal even.

Maybe it’s a tactic they believed they were using. But that would just be a different kind of stupid, because they burnt a lot of trust over something no one would care about.

It could be another kind of bluff though. It could have been the CEO signalling he’s the toughguy who’s willing to make tough decisions so he can get some job down the line.

I’ve fallen so far out of the loop with games piracy.

I gather that there are repacks now for Linux? Or do you dl the windows version then just run it through proton?

Honestly, the 2 hour refund window is the perfect length to see how bad the Linux compatibility is. A half hour to try a few tweaks, if I care enough to. Another hour to see if there are subtle bugs or intermittant crashes.

I definitely have tried to run a few games I wouldn’t have bothered with otherwise.

ACAB includes the Greek pantheon. Prometheus is what happens when you don’t toe the line.

And to speak to grad and hexbear, a large part of the reason there are commies here is because they were driven off other platforms. Hexbear and Grad are both decendent from active communities that reddit banned.

Seeing all the scaremongering about those communities here reminds me of the old comic. :

I looked up his name and that part is real, which is mindblowing to me. He’s a 538 guy.

I’ve only dreamed of such a thing, but this guy lived it.

oh god, to be Chadwick Mat… wait… is that really his name?

They’re called that because they’re hard-baked.

Hold on though
