  • Microsoft revokes Office 2019 perpetual licenses, then edits their website to gaslight customers.

  • It is called economic model and it is a societal contract. For better or worse, capitalism democratised consumption and largely improved the lifelihood of many.

    I'm all for UBI, but it is too idealistic to have this without a world-disrupting event like a Great War or similar.

  • Microsoft revokes Office 2019 perpetual licenses, then edits their website to gaslight customers.

  • Sure, but the people that made that software had to pay electricity bills and capital purchases of computers. The fact that they decided to release that as free (freedom and price) software is a different topic, itself laudable but most times not even altruistic.

    And on the "arbitrarily taken away" topic, you seem to be against "services" and not necessarily software (the means to the end).

  • Microsoft revokes Office 2019 perpetual licenses, then edits their website to gaslight customers.

  • Software is made by people (good software, not slop) which who deserve a living too. Expensive, extortionate software pricing is a different thing.

  • windows is using steamOs as their gaming performance goal

  • Such a strange world where half the games in existence target Windows, and that gave rise to Wine then Proton, and now the maker of Windows is looking at a Win32 and DirectX compatibility layer for performance metrics.

  • The element should actually do something

  • This blog post reminds me of Discord's dates, often times used as release date indicators (of a game, update, stream, etc), and could be fit for <time> for what the user intends.

    These could be native popovers, popovers using JS or even custom :after CSS pseudo elements.

  • Valve put up a new Steam Linux Runtime 4.0 with a move towards 64-bit

  • The runtime is for launching games, not Steam itself. You can check the runtime selection in Compatibility tab of Steam and of each game. If your Steam Flatpak install doesn't work, the issue is likely somewhere else.

    I'd suggest trying to launch the flatpak from the terminal and seeing if there's any strange logging.

  • Cold_irl (Art by ShepGoesBlep)

  • Coming from All, but I love the fresh taste of cold water after brushing my teeth.

  • Respect fire guy

  • Probably a trans woman? From the name and Fed instance.

  • Child labour with 10 years of experience, 'AI-native' accepting 250k lines of Cursor code

  • Doesn't the poster look underage as well?

  • Travelers to the U.S. must pay a new $250 'visa integrity fee'

  • US cheap? 10 bucks a beer cheap? I get five beers and five meals for that price in some areas of Europe.

  • Bazzite July 2025 Update: Bazaar [new FlatPak store], Z13, Kernel 6.15, Steam Hardware Survey

  • Not familiar with it but at first I thought of Canonical/Ubuntu's Bazaar, a VCS similar to Mercurial and Git.

  • Thumbs Up dude

  • It's great that they made a funny from a saddie. This is how you move forward and own your saddies.

  • Blighted, a metroidvania from the creators of Guacamelee, is announced for a 2026 release with co-op

  • The top-down view, general art style and vibe reminds me of Bastion.

  • Deciding between mint and fedora, quick questions

  • Second Fedora, because it's just so good. Bazzite is the goal if gaming is your primary concern.

  • My mom tells me I should cut dad off for cheating on her, am I a bad person for not wanting to do so?

  • Honestly, I'm very happy that your post has the highest score.

    All other people are spewing vitriol over either parent and not even trying to be understanding. Life is about making and learning from mistakes, and mistakes can be oh-so-horrible at times. Character value is measured by how well you navigate the stormy waves, and there's almost never a single correct choice.

  • European Festivities

  • Another one is that Moroccanoil, a big sponsor of Eurovision, is an Israeli-owned company.

  • Schools in Spain required to serve fruit, vegetables and fish in fight against obesity

  • Nothing against primarily-vegetarian or vegan cuisines. I'm only against saying "this cuisine suck" when you really mean "I don't like it".

  • Schools in Spain required to serve fruit, vegetables and fish in fight against obesity

  • Croquettes are not "something veggie". You can make them as breaded bechamel, but often they're filled with pork ham or chicken bits. You may find more fancy varieties with seafood or mushrooms, but overall I wouldn't consider them "something veggie".

    Is Spain primarily meat-eating? Yes. If that's your concern, be upfront about it but don't generalise saying that Spain cuisine sucks.

  • Gap in resume

  • The way to getting through the door is by employing soft skills, ie having someone forward your CV, be it someone you knew or some recruiter you just added to LinkedIn.

    There are other ways, but involve more gating like CV scrappers.
