@tomncooper the number of times I wish I bought a Steam Deck in the last 8 weeks is… more than one
Launched doom remaster on pc. Realised the arrow keys aren’t bound to turn left/right. Realise you CANNOT bind turn left/right to keyboard keys. Close in disgust.
@jamesh @Conan_Kudo @sortova @jzb @popey my recollection (perhaps wrong) is the anti-mono stuff was all in the GTK2 era, disenfranchising devs, which could explain a lack of momentum behind GTK bindings maintenance in the Mono stack (or could just be my idle speculation)
Started reading Clifford Simak’s City #scifi classic. A particularly handsome SFBC hardback
I recently “solved” this for my personal mail by buying in Mythic Beasts as a provider. But I haven’t sorted out sending at Debian.org yet so I get lots of mail rejections from Google to my Debian emails, including to mailing lists I think.
Please, boycott Google's email service Gmail. Here is why you should do so:
They are considering almost all small email servers as spam, this mean Google users have to look in their spam folder when they receive email from someone considered small. This kills freedom.
On top of that, gmail addresses are the biggest source of spam around nowadays, isn't it sarcastic?
There are a few good email provider around that are free, some other are paid but really cheap. If something is free, you should ask yourself how they make money.
This is an interesting point. I hadn’t factored in inflation in my thinking https://mastodon.social/@geerlingguy/112990731064936783
@InterzoneMag this art from 294 would (I think) translate really well to colour eink’s limitations; other art not so much!
@InterzoneMag and some of the really cool tricks were things like subtle pagination tweaks or page setting(thinking of a Cécile Cristofafi story I think) that are likely unrepeatable in epub due to technical limitations, colour or not!
@InterzoneMag (sorry this is a really drawn out convo. I’m existing in a weird time frame at the moment)
I think ultimately the colour e-reader stuff is a bit of a gimmick. Thinking back to my historic interzone reading, the stuff which would potentially look good would be full colour interstitial art; but, when it comes to memorable stories, for me, I can’t recall the art. And I read plenty of amazing stories in BW.

I saw this article hinting at a Mozilla logo rebrand and my immediate thought was how much that must have cost https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2024/08/mozilla-new-logo
