  • Compared to other national and international chains, I’ll pick Dominos. Here in Vancouver there are just so many local pizza shops and smaller chains to choose from, even the cheaper/quantity over quality chains taste better than both Pizza Hut and Domino’s (I’m thinking Freshslice for the Western Canadians in the room). Even corporate pizza events here don’t go with Domino’s, which was the go to when I was elsewhere.


  • My stages are:

    • Slow, inefficient and spaghetti factory but gets the job done, everything stuffed in a few boxes.
    • get output parts split randomly along belts to make the more complicated products
    • make a train, yay!
    • run out of power, aww…
    • bring out the spreadsheet, careful clocking and splitters to make “ideal” ratios of products to perfectly utilize maximum ore production
    • Get a healthy supply of smart splitters, use overflow and stop caring about perfect ratios.
    • retrieve products from “perfect” factories in spaghettified manner again to get the highest tier materials
    • remake the base with better ratios and better aesthetics.
    • sit back and realize you’ve spent 100 hours of your life on this, couldn’t be happier.




  • These funding milestones sound great! Very excited on future improvements.

    Dessalines and Nutomic have done great jobs along with the rest of the Lemmy contributors. Adding Phiresky and Sunaurus to the development team is also very positive and I appreciate the diversification of origin instance in the team. This will be useful in the rare but totally understandable event that a part of the team may need to break for a while.

    Multi-communities and post tags would be an absolute game changer if implemented.








  • I found a solution today using Fcitx, the clipboard addon, and the default shortcut Ctrl+semicolon. However, it works more like a history that pushes each older item down, rather than 10 separately accessible boxes. It seems as though it will work with the use case you described.

    Note: I have no idea how well Fcitx is supported in Wayland.




  • For Steam games, it’s simply a matter of checking the “Enable Steam Play for all Other Titles”, and you’re all set. Depending on your library, 50-80% will work with no discernable difference, besides maybe a slightly longer download and open time. Check out protondb.com which will give you an idea of how many you can expect to work at least somewhat, including using your own Steam public profile if you wish.

    Some games will need a couple small tweaks, ie a specific Proton version to manually copy in, a game setting like Borderless Window, or worst case a few terminal commands but they are set and forget in every instance I’ve encountered. Protondb has comments of others who will share their experience and sometimes how they got something to run well if it doesn’t out of the box.

    Non-Steam games also work. Lutris is the easiest way to set it up, but it can be done manually too. Both wine and proton will work, let me know if you want a tutorial for manual set up but it’s too long for one comment.

    Now for issues:

    Drivers are okay for most general stuff (mic, headset, mice, keyboards, gamepads), specialized stuff requiring proprietary drivers is a crapshoot. I’ve a 2nd hand DAC I can’t use on Linux for Rocksmith.

    Games that will not work and likely will never rely on invasive anticheat. So it’s a waste of time to try and run Rainbow 6 Siege, Fortnite, Valorant or League of Legends. Without the anticheat the games could run perfectly fine.
