car go further faster, and car more useful when not in big city.

I have seen the reasoning they are actually presenting, and it is just various versions of "but I don't want this to be here" even though they have the option of not interacting with it. nobody is forcing maintainers to support rust code in the thing they maintain, they just can't prevent rust code from interfacing with it. their arguments are based purely on not wanting to interact with rust but they don't have to, so they are wrong to block it.

I'm not to great at managing sleep or food intake myself, but I've found that adding some flavoring to your water helps with hydration. I don't mean those little squirt bottle things though, I mean more like tea. I used to make tea in the morning before school and when I finished it I would refill the water bottle with regular water from the water fountain. the flavor wouldn't be as strong as when I first made the tea, but it made me go from almost never drinking water to drinking 1 bottle of tea (that water bottle was like 20 oz) and 2 bottles of water a day. they also make cold brew tea now, and from the couple times i've tried it it seemed to steep pretty well in ice water and had a good flavor. also as dumb as it may seem, having a water bottle with some cool gimmicky feature may help too. for example, i use an owala one right now and it's been pretty helpful (i stopped doing the tea thing for a while bc i ran out and forgot to buy more) as well.

you shouldn't worry about being skinny, only not being fat. the goal should be to avoid the bad thing (being fat, in this case meaning only fat to the point of unhealthiness) not to be the opposite because that is bad too (being excessively skinny can cause just as many issues). as long as you aren't at the point one way or the other where it is hurting your health nobody actually cares. also I'm aware op was joking but some of y'all need to hear this.

being new does not mean you do not have the right to develop the same way everybody else is. they did not start these issues, there were C people causing issues for no reason other than not liking rust that started it.

@EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted@lemmy.blahaj.zone idk about GOG but in my experience any games through steam just work unless they have some shitty anticheat

yeah how dare they want to develop in the same way that everyone else does

[–] unknown1234_5@kbin.earth 3 points 3 days ago (3 children)

no idea what you're talking about

you get really high latency

 

Back in 2017, a bug report was created on bugzilla asking for 'Locally Integrated Menus' like the Unity desktop. This was a feature where the menubar of an app was displayed in the titlebar, appearing on hover by default (though you could make it always visible).

Over the next couple years there was some development, but it was mostly in individual window decorations such as "Material Decoration". In 2021, there was a merge request made to finally add LIMs into KDE plasma as an option for titlebars. Unfortunately, due to proximity to the release of plasma 6, reliance on x11, and "a technical disagreement over where it should live" [Guido Iodice, @giodice, 2023 comment under merge request], the merge request has had no changes since August 11, 2021.

Personally, I would love to have this feature as it would save a entire menubar's worth of vertical space on my screen and would allow me to make use of some of the dead space in my titlebars. similar sentiments were expressed throughout the threads under both the bug report and the merge request. many people also talked about giving the option of showing on hover (like unity) or showing always (my preference), and some even suggested making it the default behavior. Do you think this would be a good feature?

 

I just made the community (as a copy of one i had made on lemmy before i switched to mbin) and wanted to make a "questions here" post like I did before. so, questions here. I'll answer as best i can.

 

hypothetically, let's say you were tasked with simplifying the English language. how would you go about doing that, and why?

to start with an easy one, the first thing I would do is eliminate silent letters from all words and make it so no letters share sounds. for example, example would become exampel. then, because x would no longer be around or at least wouldn't have that sound, ekzampel. I would also consider eliminating mulit-letter sounds like ch, and replacing them with single characters (probably the ones that got removed).

 

long story short, fuck company; still want shows. I remember popcorn time being good at one point, is it still good?

 

I use a Linux distro with kde, so I have a lot of customization available. I like trying other distros in VMs, but stuff like windows (no need to copy really kde is similar by default) and Mac is a pain in the ass to use that way. so, I want to know what your os does that you think I should copy using kde's customization. I'm looking for Mac in particular (bc I haven't used it before) but any OS or desktop environment is fair game.

 

spirits, what movie should I watch with my family tonight?

 

I currently use mbin and I like it because I like reddit-style social media, but for stuff from specific people and organizations microblog is sometimes better. I want to use the microblog part more (for example, make a post asking the Vivaldi account if there is any possibility of Vivaldi switching to a Firefox base instead of chromium. also I know it's not that easy no need to discuss that on this thread) but tbh I don't understand microblog stuff at all. in particular I want to know how I'm supposed to use @s and #s, and how I'm meant to interact with it. I know this seems kind of silly but I've never really used microblog-style social media until I got into the fediverse a couple months ago.

edit: to clarify, I am not asking how to use the microblog feature of mbin. I am asking about microblog in general.

 

why is like 30% of the content on Lemmy star trek related? is it just a side effect of the particular communities I'm in or is it an actual platform-wide thing?

 

I am fairly new to programming and for my cs class i need to run individual programs. they don't need to interact with anything else, so i am trying to just run the file I'm currently on but Kate just greys out the option. I really want to avoid using projects if i can because they're just extra effort for no reason when I only need to run a single file. I did try using one, but Kate doesn't have a new project button for some reason and i had some trouble with Cmake.

I'm aware that these are actually pretty basic things, but I can't find anything online that actually explains how to use Kate at all. I would try using something else, but every IDE seems to have this same issue where by default it can't run code and it has no documentation of any kind regarding actually running code, so i'll just stick with the one that came with my distro.

also as a bonus question, why does every IDE seem to require you to configure every single option before it can run code and why do they all seem to discourage doing anything less than making an entire app?
