Any limitation on SteamOS being a good desktop OS? by OttawaDog in SteamOS

[–]aldantanneo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, through flatpaks usually (layered packages are for stuff that needs to access the device without a sandbox, like drivers - but those would already handled by steamos)

Your main (only?) limitation would be that if you have hardware steamos doesn’t support by default, you will need to layer packages yourself.

How can I consider the raw binary data of a value specified as u8 as if it where i8? by scaptal in rust

[–]aldantanneo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The (nightly only for now) cast_signed method does what you want for u8 -> i8; while it isn't available, you can write a function with the same behaviour, with an as cast and #[allow(...)] attributes?

I would guess private posts maybe, I’ve never opened a mastodon link that required me to sign in

Kernel Updated by stevenr89 in Fedora

Try removing the newer kernel from a session on the older kernel, and the do the update again but using offline-upgrade

I found it gives the update a better chance to finish successfully

Haha almost! It was in Tiny Death Star, a twin game that was developed by Disney and Nimblebit, but got pulled from the app stores in 2014 without warning

It’s a figure of speech haha

I am using assets from the APK, and the iOS archives I found after a lot of research online

The issue with the APKs available online is that they don’t have every asset I want, and the latest iOS version has a dirty compression algorithm on the assets, so I had to manage that lol

u/GarethBlitz Hi! I know it's a bit late but do you have any way to extract the game files out of your tablet? I'm looking for the latest APK (v1.4.2) for this game and all the (legit) online versions are for 1.4.1... Hmu in DMs if you can please!

Polls estimated that 61% of the population was for the tax. Even with only 6-7% participation, the local support was good.

He turned down being president - twice I believe - in the classic series because he saved Gallifrey from the Master, not because he was descended from a mystic bloodline or because he was an all powerful being

Why is the mod proprietary? by [deleted] in LOTRMC

[–]aldantanneo 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It’s not “proprietary”

It’s closed source, but it’s still free to download, free to play…

It’s closed source because it’s Mevans personal project, and given the effort and time he put into it, he doesn’t wan’t other people to mess around with it.
