How does one break into this industry? I recently started playing the video game Not For Broadcast and have fallen in love. I’m sure it’s a very romanticized and simplified experience but I’ve been having a blast at perfecting the “art.” Ve

Received this exact text, word for word with the same suspicious phishing link, from my own number, a few hours ago.

The Dan Case is absolutely gorgeous. What hardware are you running in yours? I’d love to get a setup like this going with a 30x series card, but I’m not sure how difficult getting one at listing price is these days.

This sounds really nice… I’m now quite keen on looking into ultrawides.

This is what I have been looking into for a portable gaming setup. My framework setup already has so much raw power in terms of RAM and CPU. A solid GPU is the next step :-) Would do a GPU pass through setup with virtio/QEMU and a Lin

Anecdotal personal experience: I’m on PopOS running Wayland with fractional scaling to 200%. It looks fantastic imo and have only had some issues with Guake terminal when plugged in to an external monitor, which I believe may be a Guake-Wa

+1 for alacritty. However now that I don’t daily drive mac as much, I’ve defaulted back to iTerm 2 for when I do happen to be doing something on my mac. The default configuration is quite good out of the box. All I really need to do post-in

Daily drove mac for 5-7 years after a childhood of tinkering with Linux installs (no professional development) and falling in love with an AwesomeWM setup with custom keybinds. After getting into professional dev during / after high sc

This is brilliant. I remember coming across these a few years ago, and the recommended starting game Bandit was way out of my depth. Now, several years later, I was able to blaze through Bandit in no time at all! And, learn some really cool

This was my immediate thought as well. Oh Ross, if only you closed that damn laptop lid (and didn't incriminate yourself blatantly on stack overflow)

This is very cool to see. When I discovered and subsequently purchased my framework back in October I had an idea for a homebrewed, 3D printed expansion card, where plugging it in/activating it immediately executes dban (or some other,

Very interesting. I’m running PopOS on my framework, running Wayland— the touchpad gestures is very good. But still not up to par with MacBook. I’m extremely curious as to how this compares. I think it’s both PopOS’s gestures as well as the

It is that inherent human tendency and bias that limits one’s worldview, a concept I have grappled with and am still learning to manage every week that goes by. We as humans are all victims to it and we (at least most of us here on HN) reco

This is very interesting and good to know. I rarely game on my phone these days, but every now and then I get that itch. I’ll check out their catalogue.

Well, speaking for myself personally, I was around 11-13 when I first joined the scene. Right before the fall of the classical hacker collectives and old school zines. It sounds to me like you were not, so I will give your unsubstantiated o

I’ve noticed Poetry being used more and more for projects I setup locally, and I must say, it does seem to be very, very good. Minimal overhead, easy to adopt, etc. I’ll need to setup a proper workflow with it for my current projects. Being

Probably so for anyone who didn’t grow up reading the old Hacker zines. Phrack (and the Hacker Manifesto) are iconic in the scene.

This. The MacOS <-> Linux <-> Windows swapping isn’t too difficult, just takes a day or so of training that muscle memory. I should note to the OP that I almost exclusively use my HHKB[0] for all of those operating systems, whic

It seems Wayland still has some issues with dual monitors and higher resolution (note: I am following the PopOS configuration guide on the frame.work forums. I’ll probably give Wayland a try later today as I wasn’t aware of this.

Yes you are correct! First time trying to post a code block from mobile, cheers.

Gone are the days of Jelly Car. Now it’s enormously rare to find any sort of mobile game that does _not_ have either invasive ads with arbitrary timers and intentionally hard to click dismiss buttons or egregious in-app-purchase models

If you’re on an Intel CPU Linux loves screen tearing. Create /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf And add this: Section "Device" Identifier "Intel Graphics" Driver "intel" Option "
