Same here, extensions such as unhook youtube have helped me reduce my youtube addiction. I also unsubbed from some channels that released videos a bit too often (like LTT)

Eagerly awaiting for the day we have xdamage over the browser, for it to then be promptly trumped by xcomposite over the browser.

I had to force me to use it for a few weeks until it clicked on me. It's a pressure sensitive device, not a joystick. You have to get used to put the right amount of pressure for the speed you want to move the pointer.

I got lucky on mine and got an IPS panel... The seller never specified anything about the screen but from the photos I still had a hunch it could be an IPS panel. For a good while after I purchased it I would look all smug at my friends bra

I had the same thoughts as you... also, wally runs totally fine under wine, and I always get a kick out of using old win32 apps for some reason :)

I've been playing it on and off lately (on a real n64 no less) and I honestly think it's more of a level design problem than the actual collect a ton. I've really enjoyed some levels (the factory level is nice!), while I desp

Have you considered using a 4K screen with 200% scaling? That would considerably sharpen text in any situation compared to a 1080p screen.

newer versions of gnome-terminal have a feature where it will hold your paste buffer in the linefeed before executing anything, does not matter how long or how many line breaks there are. You can then inspect what you just paste into the te

I would agree with that, and indeed I used it for many years, were it not for it's performance. It's just atrocious under a big library. I would constantly get assaulted with what I could only assume were garbage collection pauses

Closest thing to foobar2000 is Clementine, an Amarok 1 fork... The media library features are almost as good, if not for a nasty bug where using the filter in the library "tree view" can lock the app for many seconds for no reason

That challenge gets a little bit more doable if you deploy the laptop gun at the capture point (as much as possible)! Also the cloaking device pickup is helpful... Still took me a dozen or so tries to beat it...

Both AoE II and Starcraft play totally fine now. But they used to run poorly on old wine releases from 6 years ago. Any software that is around 15 years or older has a really good chance of running, I would say even more than Windows 10. Ne
