However, I do believe they’re entering a very oversaturated market, with the likes of 8BITDO and GuliKit creating high-quality, affordable controllers in the same niche. ANBERNIC would have to aggressively outprice them to get any kind of attention, but only time will tell.

Not really. 8BitDo really blew it with the Ultimate. They confusingly have two different "versions" of it, and neither have the full range of device compatibility that previous 8BitDo controllers had. The most egregious exclusion from the Ultimate was Xinput over Bluetooth. I still have no idea why they decided to drop that.

Its design takes inspiration from a modern-day Xbox controller and is fully compatible with PC, Steam, Nintendo Switch, Android, and iOS using Bluetooth 5.3 and 2.4g connection. It can also be connected using a USB-C wire too.

If this new controller has Xinput over Bluetooth, all of the compatibility from above, and a strong battery life, it might be a day 1 buy. It will have hall effect sticks, so this sounds like everything I wanted the 8BD Ultimate to be. I hope there aren't any showstoppers once reviews start coming out.

I'm really curious to learn how you get calls in so many different languages. I could definitely see Spanish, English, and maybe Vietnamese all being spoken in a general geographic area, but you listed a lot of diverse languages. Pretty cool if that's really all within one area!

Forgejo is Gitea. It was a soft fork of Gitea, and more recently a hard fork.

You can read about why they hard forked, and decide for yourself if it's worth switching, but the consensus is that Forgejo is in better hands than Gitea.

Currently it's easy to migrate from Gitea to Forgejo, but the longer you wait and the more it diverges from Gitea, the harder it will become to migrate.

If you like the Forgejo direction and think it's in better hands than Gitea, you might want to consider migrating sooner rather than later. All of your data should remain intact as it's essentially a drop in replacement. This should only take you a few minutes if you're using the Docker version of Gitea.

I don't think they were disagreeing with you, I think they were just trying to say:

You shouldn't need braces to be vertically aligned if your code is uniformly indented. Then you can easily see what code is paired together just by their indentation level.

Of course this is not always true if you've got a bunch of crazy nested indentation pushing things off to the right.

Are you on GrapheneOS by chance? Either disable Zygisk or try the build I linked here. They kinda rushed the 26 builds out the door without a lot of testing, which is a shame, considering there will be no more releases until v27

https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/issues/7489

However, be warned: my system was very unstable with Zygisk enabled even with this build. Everything would "work," but apps would randomly crash, be unresponsive, or just display very strange behavior that all went away when Zygisk was disabled. I leave it disabled for now and will try again in v27.

For apps that have root detection, try web versions of those services when possible. Especially banking services.

I've been using Lawnchair for a while, but development is so slow, and they are so consistently behind Android updates, that I think I've given up on custom launchers and will just use the stock AOSP launcher.

It is disappointing, but Google has made it so you don't get the fancy recents carousel unless you use the stock launcher. Lawnchair does support that by pretending to be the stock launcher, but Lawnchair only supports up to Android 12, and Android 14 is about to come out. There hasn't been a hint of Lawnchair even starting development of Android 13 compatibility, so I'm not confident they'll be able to keep up with 14 and beyond.

ChickenThoughts is one of the things I miss from Reddit :(

What if you started disliking these extremist videos, and explicitly liking more tame videos with the kind of content she would enjoy? This might tell the algorithm to prefer less polarizing videos over time.

The caveat is, I've heard likes/dislikes "don't count" unless you've watched a certain percentage of the video, at least more than a few seconds. So you can't just sit there and speed through clicking dislike on everything.

Another thing you can try is clicking algorithm-suggested videos that seem less radical than the current one. For example, on the home screen, click on something innocuous that's trending. From "related videos," in any video, pick literally anything that's not what she's already watching.

You will probably have to do this for a while, but eventually she might "latch on" to whatever the algorithm starts suggesting. She almost certainly won't stop watching those radical videos entirely - people that age are set in their ways. But maybe you can get her to watch less.

Their cheapest $5 Linux VPS isn't any better than one from a reputable host like Vultr. This isn't really a deal, just use a trusted hoster instead.

That DM sending bug was already fixed in a later rc version. Although rc.9 and I think 10 have a weird bug where you can't sign out. Fun stuff.

Don't forget to edit all your comments first to say [removed] or [moving to lemmy.world]

Otherwise all your old comments stay on the site but with the username of [deleted]. Posts too.

If you need a tool to do this for you automatically, I think I've heard of people using Shreddit. But there are likely a few options.

I wonder why the world outside a limited subset of the Linux ecosystem is - at most - an afterthought for Fediverse developers.

I hate to break this to you, but OpenBSD is an antiquated OS masquerading as a modern one, and OpenBSD's lack of willingness to support modern standards results in the difficulty you're having.

OpenBSD feels like it's been duct taped together for decades. Anything "new" seems to just be, "sorry, not possible." The OpenBSD kernel doesn't support WiFi 5GHz. The OpenBSD kernel doesn't support even the minimum subset of isolation features in order for Docker to function properly. Why? Because OpenBSD refuses to add these features to their kernel. There are very likely other syscalls and basic features any given open source project needs, even if it's not being run in Docker, that simply do not exist under OpenBSD due to the very limited kernel it provides.

You're upset because open source projects don't support a platform that is old and developer-hostile. Turn your frustrations on OpenBSD - these projects would gladly support OpenBSD if they could.
