Step one: use Dendrite instead.
Step two: come back and help me set up my Dendrite instance, it’s definitely not easier.


Huh! I didn’t realize that. It was a cool product.



If you want to go overboard, you can even create something akin to a macro by assigning multiple actions to the same key, so that a single keypress registers a different action when you’ve pressed half-way down, as you bottom out and when the switch pushes the keycap up again — and maybe another one somewhere in-between. I haven’t quite found a personal use case for this yet, but somebody surely will.

From the article. Cool stuff!
I’ll be over here with my 1/64 keyboard.


For all the free publicity when it gets taken down. They were probably hosting it six different ways already




Rust: this garbage code is beneath me, come back when you have your shit together.


I love it. Virtmanager connecting over ssh is so smooth.


Sometimes they were. And cables weren’t, so if you didn’t know any better you’d be plugging your headphones into Line Out. And good luck telling blue and green apart in low light while wedged between the desk and the wall.


Don’t think of it as a Switch 2, any more than the Wii was a GameCube 2, or the NDS was a GBA 2.
That said, I personally think the Switch was a realization of what the WiiU tried to be: blending handheld and console, exploring motion controls, and solidifying online play with titles like Splatoon and Super Mario Maker.
The Switch itself experimented with VR with the Nintendo Labo headset, bringing VR modes to Super Mario Odyssey and Mario Kart, Smash Bros and Breath of the Wild.
They really could have pivoted strongly into VR, since the biggest barrier – the hardware buy-in – was already out of the way.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the next console picked up where the Switch left off there.



Yeah, jeez. The number of times I give up and Ctrl+F on the page I’ve clicked to, just to find that the phrase I double-quoted just does not exist there and that my time has been wasted


Really you just need a command key, get rid of the rest. Hold it down for different lengths of time to indicate which key input you want.


I can just close my eyelids and imagine that I’m playing any game

I love getting more use out of my old consoles.


I mean… You’d learn so much. Crash and burn maybe, but call it a win for all the knowledge you gain in the process.





Yeah I’m gonna go ahead and very happily explore the islands in first-person real-time free-exploration mode (while wishing I had a VR setup)




And Java will still be active long after the heat-death of the universe





A T-Rex. The only people with the know-how to convert everything it does to something more modern are $400-$1200/hour motivated not to.




But

why would several blank lines be the default behavior




The varsity jacket should have “read the wiki” embroidered onto it



I think you and those responding to you are conflating Matrix and Element and Synapse.
Spaces are a UI feature in Element for grouping rooms. Element is only one of many Matrix clients.
Element, the client, is written in typescript and kotlin.
https://github.com/vector-im

Synapse, a server implementation using the Matrix protocol, is indeed written in Python.
There are several other servers, written in Go, Rust, C, and C++.

Matrix is the protocol itself. Blaming it for UI problems is like blaming TCP for the toolbars in Internet Explorer: very remotely correct.


I watched the whole thing and I’m still not convinced it’s not Picnicface
