Correct. All apex ever did was ride on the coattails of a once great IP

It is, I'm sorry to break the news to you.

They back ported their newer in-house anti-cheat system which is in place for 2042, and possibly others.

guess I should thank them for finally giving me a reason to uninstall apex and keep it that way.

I was about to ask

what the fuck is xdefiant

I'm no fan of the 2077, but thinking of it solely as a shooter is doing it a bit of a disservice given that you usually* have different approaches to in-game situations.

You can build around hacking, engineering, speech checks, melee combat, stealth cyberwarfare etc.

I felt that the projectile mechanics were sort of neat but I will agree that I don't think the game really has legs when merely thought of as a FPS. Perhaps it had some potential in the past, part of their PL govt funding agreement was to release a multiplayer mode as well. I'd imagine that'd focus a little more on gunplay, and slightly less on QuickTime interactions involving hacking and such, but who knows.

*there are situations which require direct combat iirc

I don't have any clear indication as to whether opinion pieces (or individual stories in general) factor into these scores.

[–] vikingtons@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago (2 children)

the compass is whatever, I was more amused by those factuality ratings.

lmao what the fuck is this site

I use a keychron Q3 and Q0. They can be remapped / programmed through a web (chrome derivs as it requires WebHID) or desktop electron app called VIA, which at the time of writing is proprietary. I believe Vial (written in Qt) is being brought up, so that may be an option in the future.

In terms of managing the firmware, the vendor offers a first party web interface (also leveraging WebHID). The QMK Toolbox GUI is only available on Mac and Windows but you can use the CLI on Linux to get into DFU mode and flash your firmware.

Not really keen on Logitech as a company but I use Piper to program several of their G series mice on Linux. You can check the libratbag support list to see which hardware can work with it.

Absolutely. They've been getting really popular in wearables (particularly from Chinese brands).

Several SBC vendors are including rv clusters in ARM based SoCs (which I believe is partially related to what you mentioned) for development purposes.

I even have a little rv powered ssoldering iron 😊

same for AMD graphics since 2019. I wouldn't be surprised if Intel were doing the same with Arc too, though I haven't looked into that yet.

 

Hey there,

Not sure if this is actually more of an Android system limitation, but I came across this post earlier:

https://lemm.ee/post/45289052

The feed renders the linked .SVG graphic as expected, though the image lightbox (image view when tapped on) doesn't appear to render this. The AOSP gallery / files app and Google Photos app appear to also be incapable of rendering this, however.

Disregard, - it works now for me now 😅

Hey there,

This is an extremely minor quirk with how the image lightbox (apologies if I'm using web specific terms) behaves when a post image is selected from the feed and put into full screen mode.

On devices with on-screen nav and expanded status bar areas (camera hole design concession), the lightbox will show end to end with the UI controls overlayed.

If you tap once on the image to hide the UI elements, the status bar area is filled, whereas the nav area still shows as expected, though the image appears to resize slightly in response to the change in viewport. Wondering if this was intentional?

Truly the most P4 item I could think of but was curious.

E: fixed in 0.0.75 - thank you MV :)

Hey there,

I was wondering if anybody else was experiencing this behavior where the swipe to navigate back gesture would register twice within the app, taking you back two steps instead of just one.

I'm not sure exactly when this behaviour was introduced, though it persists with today's .72 alpha release. I was to say it came about in the .6X timeframe.

I've not found this reported on the github, though I just wanted to check that this isn't a system specific issue before submitting. #1399 may be relevant as it refers to swipe input sensitivity but I think that's more of a gesture threshold matter than input registering twice in the app.

My app settings are attached in a photo:

and I have a short clip:

Steps to reproduce:

  • Using the provided gesture settings in Jerboa
  • From the home feed, tap into a community name
  • From the community view, tap into a community post
  • Swipe left to navigate back to the community view
  • Observe two steps back in response to a single input

You might semi supinate your deadlift grip (one hand over, one under) for comfort & endurance at heavier weights. I believe some competitions even mandate this for safety reasons.

Those of you who semi grip, do you ever alternate? If so, have you identified any benefits in doing so?

A friend brought this up with me a couple months ago. It was a reasonable ask, and yet I've never thought to switch hands. I try to only use a semi grip when necessary (heavier sets, fewer reps).

I've recently started experimenting with switching it around for a few higher volume sets. Is there any benefit from switching long term, or session to session?
