we’ve got monitor edge barriers! the feature i missed most from windows is here i’m so pleased!

i doubt it, i don’t see why an icon pack would have a systemd service. probably something to do with moonlight [nvidia]

still, thank you for introducing me to a new* icon pack

honestly? i kind of agree. but gog spent a lot of dev time revamping their client into "gog galaxy 2.0" just to make it less controller accessible; and the epic client is just unusable

i would have more sympathy if they were little indie companies. but the itch.io client is better than either. these companies are pouring money into breaking into a market, but not bothering to develop features

that comment was more an example of why the egs isn’t yet a real competitor than a criticism of any as yet nonexistent competitors

It uses CEF not Electron,

fine. i was simplifying. that wasn’t the main point of my comment. forgive me.

which it has used for over 13 years. This isn’t something they just added.

no…?

you mean that the store has been an embedded browser? in that case yes

but the whole steam client? has always been vgui, not electron cef. just because there is reference to chromium in the commit log doesn’t mean the whole thing’s built in chromium.

If it’s running slow for you you probably have an issue with hardware acceleration.

it’s not just me who has performance issues. at one point it was everyone on linux with an nvidia gpu. which is supposedly fixed (and it’s definitely better) but it’s still unusably slow. also, so what. my point was that i never had issues with vgui, and now i do.

edit: ah, i’ve just looked through your comment history. i should never have engaged. sorry. i won’t engage any more.

i would love for steam to have some competition. i will gladly switch over to the first competitor that has

• a big picture / controller-friendly interface
• controller configurator that
  • is more powerful than rewasd
  • is editable in the overlay
  • has import/exportable configs (incl. with the community)
  • supports the best controller i’ve ever used, the steam controller
• cross-platform client
• cross-platform cloud saves
• workshop/modding support
• proper reviews system
• community page for each game
• etc.

and doesn’t

• buy exclusivity rights to games
  • i don’t mind revenue deals for exclusivity, but buying existing games takes the biscuit
• actively worsen existing games
  • e.g. removing the impeccable siapi support in rocket league, and making it run on the shitty epic servers so it disconnects all the time

particularly now that steam has switched over to electron, so the client runs like shit

i do sometimes use gog because i like their ideology, but they’re missing quite a few from this list. any gog or itch.io games i buy, i inevitably add to steam as a non-steam game. which adds a lot of these handy features, but not all

unfortunately, until a competitor brings along something new to the table, i’m quite happy to wait and pay more for a game on steam. it just has too many features i can’t give up

i’m firmly of the belief that it’s designed to be on the left

if you use a calculator with your left hand, A) your thumb (strongest digit) rests on = (most used button), and B) you can write with your right hand

then some wacko put it on the right of the keyboard, so enter is on your little finger and the mouse is miles away^[1] and now we have to live with the consequences

in about:config, try removing the pertinent domains from extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains

i’ve never done this though, so caveat executor

holy hell this is massive

thank you for your work db0

yeah i guess i can’t argue with that…

the same way that removing a headphone jack is courageous, i guess

personally? pc specific info

not hardware news so much, although i do think it’s on-topic; but

• pc port reports
• modding news and info
• technical support
• pc exclusive releases
  • including mainly maybe indie games? although that’s not super on-topic
• other pc specific news (i.e. news about steam, epic, itch, etc.)

i don’t really care about big name releases - if i wanted that there’s always !games@lemmy.world and !games@sh.itjust.works, although i think they get enough publicity anyways

but i haven’t actually posted anything here so my opinion’s not that important

#titlebar { display: none !important; }?

but more seriously you might be able to debug using the browser toolbox (ctrl+alt+shift+i); or you might try asking on !FirefoxCSS@fedia.io (or !Firefox@fedia.io)

It’s a grand idea to make an index, not only for better exposure, but I bet it also makes it easier for FNIC communities to handle potential problems in unity - if they want to.

yeah, there is also a matrix space where i’m doing anything i can democratically as well

I apologize for making assumptions. It is most definitely a good idea to not have the whole of Lemmies Imaginary communities depend on a single persons whims

don’t apologise! (i did steal their naming convention as well)

Though I’ve personally never had any beef with INE, we often see how bad such communities can end up.

neither did i; but better safe than sorry and all that (also i just made !imaginarytrains@lemm.ee because nobody else would, and it’s just sort of snowballed from there - i didn’t know if people would have beef with me, so i don’t want to dictate what happens everywhere)

thank you, but they’re very much unofficial by design (i’m not associated with the reddit ine, and i get the impression they’ve no interest in lemmy):

i think most of the imaginary network on reddit was the same [group of] mod[s] - i’m deliberately not doing that, and letting each lemmysphere do their own thing (hence the “federated”). this is a descriptive not prescriptive group, and this is mostly for easy discovery for people who are interested

copying in @ekky43@lemmy.dbzer0.com and @Rozz@lemmy.sdf.org - you may be interested

you could try putting a script to launch it on ~/.config/plasma-workspace/env/ - i can only assume other des wouldn’t execute things in there

i’m going to link a lot more sites here, because viewing them on ko-fi is awful. in rough order of relevance:

• pixelfed
• patreon
• nextcloud
• mastodon
• twitter
• his corporate site, though there’s not art here

nah, i agree with you. win explorer with qttabbar, tortoisegit, and some tweaks from winaerotweaker

dolphin is pretty good though and it has some features that explorer doesn’t, like a terminal pane

personally i think that’s not a great answer

So, there is a mixed bag of thought on this that I read up on before creating the domain, but tl;dr - .zip is a valid TLD and will be recognised by all browsers etc as such. There are lots of new TLDs being created and they’ll be in the same boat.

yes, it is. .scr is also a valid executable that windows pcs will run, but i wouldn’t go about distributing programmes as such

.zip domains also come with higher levels of mandatory security and require an SSL certificate to display a webpage, which is another layer of security.

almost all websites do that now, but man-in-the-middle attacks aren’t really the issue with .zip domains

On the flip side, yes someone will probably try to fake a zip file with it and send the link around, but (and people are free to disagree with me here!) this is basic Internet security and you shouldn’t be clicking links to places you weren’t expecting.

this issue isn’t clicking links to places you weren’t expecting, but clicking a link to a place you were expecting. if i send you an email saying “i sent you the invoice.zip you asked me to”; then you’d be expecting that link to open the invoice zip file

especially on lemmy, as links often follow the format “https:⧸⧸domain.com⧸c⧸topic＠differentdomain.com”

Federation won’t be affected by anything and we’d need to be manually defederated like normal.

this is true (although anyone that has ||.zip^ blocked won’t see images hosted on lemmy.zip)

People/companies may decide to block .zip domains but that is a knee-jerk reaction.

i think it’s a necessary reaction. i’ve blocked .zip on both my parents’ computers (and my own, but i at least know how to disable it for specific sites). now admittedly they’re unlikely to be using lemmy^[1], but you get the picture

Bad actors will exist (and have existed before)

yes. but giving them more attack vectors isn’t the best idea

and with the way TLDs are heading before long you’ll probably be able to generate anything as a TLD, after all they’re just name friendly pointers to an IP address.

this may be true, but A) we’re not there yet, and B) that doesn’t mean it’s a good thing (or relevant)

In summary, it’s not caused us any issues yet, I dont forsee it causing us any issues, but if it did, then we’ll cross that bridge when we get there!

this is not the best attitude, as (as @quortez says), lemmy doesn’t currently allow migration or re-federation

points 3 & 8 are the most pertinent.

(sorry it’s long, but i might link to this in future so i wanted it somewhat comprehensive)
