This app seems to be about any generic courses, not just language learning. So someone can make a language course in the way you've described

What can I do in other Linux distros that I can't do in Linux Mint Xfce? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

Serious answer? XFCE doesn't support multiple monitors with different refresh rates. So that.

Some of the other answers (like Meta (aka Windows Key) not working for shortcuts) can be hacked around, but unless you switch to a DE that supports Wayland, you will never have stable multi refresh rate differences on multiple monitors.

The Defense Department’s auditor reviewed prices paid for 46 spare parts on the C-17 from 2018 to 2022 and found that 12 were overpriced and nine seemed reasonably priced. It couldn’t determine the fairness of prices on the other 25 items.

So if we extrapolate from the data, the majority of the other items were probably overpriced as well.

You could take it once step further and say the trust has proven to be violated, so things that are hard to price have a higher likelyhood of being gauged, too

As a center-leftist supporting third party candidates (Go Claudia de la Cruz!), no a Trump victory won't unite the left, because a Trump victory won't make me like the Democrats more than I do now. If the Democrats want my vote, they will have to start appealing to me as a voter (stop supporting Israels war, reduce military spending, etc)- but the Democrats don't have these policies and a Trump victory won't change that.

Tl;dr a Trump victory changes nothing for my stance as a third party supporter

I like your analogy. Let me expand.

This same situation happens every day. For years now, 1 person has died every day. Nobody pulls the broken lever, but if people started pulling it, it would start working. For the first couple days or weeks, 5 people would die each time, but eventually we would be able to get the train on a safe track.

Anyone know of a store selling high quality FOSS swag? (lemmy.ml)
 

I've got a really nice Ubuntu sweater and I used to have some other high quality t-shirts from various open source projects (mostly Ubuntu tbh, but also other stuff). I like spending a bit of cash for stuff that lasts and is high quality/doesn't degrade in the wash. Anyone have good recommendations?

Want to make games for Blind people - Looking for thoughts/suggestions (lemmy.ml)

Hey blind folks on Lemmy!

I'm an ex-mobile game dev, and noticed while searching today there's about 45 million fully blind people in the world, but I couldn't find much about games targeting blind folks.

It seems like there's mods on existing games to assist blind people, but in my quick search there's no dedicated groups to making games for blind people as their top priority.

I have a few questions:

First, do you think lots of blind people would be interested in playing games? Think for like an hour or two a day.

Second, what sort of games would be good for blind people? Are there any games you think would be fun if someone made it for you?

Third, how would blind people like to play games? Would they prefer a phone with like one big button (i.e jump) with haptic feedback and sound, or would they prefer something like on a laptop and a screen reader?

Forth, right now I'm thinking about making a competitive math game; you have one minute to answer as many questions as possible. I was planning on using audio/screen reader to output the question, but similar to the third question, I'm curious on what's the easiest way to input the answer.

[Request] Working Factorio MacOS Piracy Link (lemmy.ml)
 

Been trying to play Factorio with my gf and cousin, who both use ARM Macbooks. Via bitsearch I was able to find a couple Factorio torrents that include MacOS, but despite allegedly having seeders, I wasn't able to get the download to work (even with DHT enabled).

Does anyone know where I can find a working download link? To be clear, every torrent I found didn't actually have seeders when I put it into the torrent client. At least a few years ago, I was able to a cracked Factorio MacOS version.

(Windows version via Wine works on Linux, but not MacOS (even via Whisky). Installing Asahi is not an option, but an idea I entertained).
