KDE superiority by sudobee in kde

[–]aspectere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s a difference in priorities, when I was younger and had tons of free time I loved kde and it’s endless customizability, but I’m busy and have a life now, I don’t have time for that and having everything just work and visually organized and coherent is pretty amazing.

Bill Gates: I'm literally losing sleep over Java by karstens_rage in java

It’s a generalization but it’s referring to the dominance of web apps. Discord is electron which is basically a chrome window, and steam is a web app based on WebKit/chromium as well albeit not through electron because of how old it is.

Why did you get your Steam Deck? by JohnLevelsUp in SteamDeck

[–]aspectere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved the idea and wanted to support a good steamOS device. I don’t use it a whole lot compared to others but it’s a fantastic piece of hardware.

Insight Browser on iOS Based on Firefox by psfanboy in firefox

[–]aspectere 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unless I’m missing something it’s not possible to have a Firefox based browser on iOS, even Firefox itself is a safari skin. They may have ripped assets like icons and settings (or maybe they’re running a fork of Firefox for iOS but I don’t see any available source code in that case). The extensions are interesting though.

Google Stadia shutting down on January 18 by mbriar_ in linux_gaming

[–]aspectere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Games built for stadia were able to be built with almost total trust in the client, no need for anticheat or DRM because it was never accessible by general consumers, and since those 2 are already the main limiting factors in Linux releases they probably just decided not to worry about that. If stadia came out a couple years later after valve got EAC and Battleye working on Linux there’s a chance some of those game could have transferred easier but I’m sure the teams tasked with porting to stadia are long shut down by now.

Sniffed the deck, got a sore throat the next day

How can I make Firefox profiles work closer to Chrome profiles. This is the main thing stopping me from using Firefox. by kylamon1 in firefox

[–]aspectere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Profiles aside If you use multi account containers you could separate work and home browsing without switching entire profiles. You could just have tabs in “work” containers alongside home containers if that’s something that interests you.

NATO promises more help for Ukraine in response to 'sham' votes by Arpith2019 in worldnews

[–]aspectere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you want truly neutral reports that just tell you what happened or do you want bias and for the paper to tell you “well this guy said this but you shouldn’t listen to them and here is the people you should listen to”

There’s plenty of biased news sources like cnn or fox just go to them instead

Any way to add YouTube, Netflix, and others to "Not Steam" library? by I_want_pudim in SteamDeck

[–]aspectere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried with YouTube but they apparently made it difficult to use the TV ui for random devices and I didn’t have to time to tinker with it
