Question: Is using paperclips a worse alternative? I’ve found them useful for those sim pinholes but im not entirely sure if its good practice

So thats the reason behind the steamdecks fume mania huh? I’ll keep that in mind (hopefully not on my nostrils!) if I ever get one. Thank you for keeping up with the blogposts! They make my long bus rides way more entertaining :)

For anyone wanting to relive the minecraft 7th gen console experience on PC, I suggest you give the Legacy4J mod a try, specially with the Re-Console Modpack. I had lots of fun revisiting the old tutorial worlds

Wouldn’t it put Firefox on a pickle? Say Chrome gets bought out of Google’s hands, would they still bother to pay half a billion to Firefox to stay as the default search engine? Could Firefox survive being financially independent?

When an app supports linux, it can do so by either:

• packaging it for popular distro repositories,
• giving instructions on how to build the app from the source code

or

• package it on distro-agnostic, package management solutions like flatpak or appImage.

These last ones are sandboxed environments. That means they have their own dependencies isolated from your system, so they dont have to deal with every distros pecularities at the cost of using more storage space. This is very useful for developers and in your case benefitial for the user because you can have both steam and zoom via flatpak on mint, arch or any obscure distro that has flatpak available, without any major problems.
