PowerShell, because of autocomplete and shift+arrows select.

Out of all the games I tried to play, only one of them worked.

Fellow pythonistas, how can I make this code more pythonic?

PS3 in particular has very weird hardware. There aren’t any good PS3 emulators for PC. Basically the only way to play PS3 games is on an actual PS3.

More like a democracy with no term limits and a leader with 90+% popularity rate.

Sure, steam looks powerful, as if they can do whatever they want. But you have to look at why steam is so powerful, it’s because people like steam. If steam uses that power for anticompetitive behavior, people will stop liking steam and it will lose a lot of power.

Just like if the leader does something that the people don’t like, suddenly the approval rating is no longer at 90+% and he loses the next election.

Tbf monopolies are sometimes unavoidable. Like the water company or the energy company (at least the ones that actually own the cables). Usually natural monopolies are nationalized though.

Even if steam is not a natural Monopoly, competition is possible, we allow it to be a monopoly because we like it, not the other way around. There are plenty of digital stores, you can at any time buy almost any game from an alternative, I’m not aware of steam having any exclusivity agreement with any game (except the ones that valve made).

Valve also doesn’t use shopping platform monopoly methods such as artificially making process low by selling at a loss, which is the main problem with other monopolies like Amazon.

It also doesn’t bundle 100 unnecessary services to the subscription. It doesn’t even have a subscription.

Sure, you can’t move your steam games to another platform, but you can get new ones. It’s not much of a problem having games from different platforms anyway, GoG for example even let’s you launch steam games from the GoG launcher. And you can always go back to good old shortcuts on a folder.

The moment steam starts enshittifing, it will be very easy to switch to another platform. Compared with other platforms, like any social media or YouTube.

The lifetime extension is huge.

Well, of course you can have few indent levels by just not indenting, I don’t think the readability loss is worth it though. If I had give up some indentation, I’d probably not indent the impl {} blocks.

Why have an async block spanning the whole function when you can mark the function as async? That’s 1 less level of indentation. Also, this quite is unusable for rust. A single match statement inside a function inside an impl is already 4 levels of indentation.

I’m not sure if it fixes your problem, but it fixed mine.

Pin the tab.

In my case, Whatsapp web didn’t get loaded when I opened firefox, so notifications didn’t reach me unless I opened the tab at least once.

If the tab is pinned, however, it will load when you open firefox, I’m unsure if the tab stays loaded.

Do you need those features? If not, go LTS. LTS means you’ll have to update the distro less frequently than latest.

If you want those features, go non-LTS, there’s no other choice. If you don’t want them, go LTS, it’s less of a hassle.

IPv6 addresses are practically endless, therefore their value is practically 0. ISPs justify charging extra for static IPv4 because IPv4 addresses do have a value.

If ISPs charge for static IPv6, then one of them could just give that service for free (while keeping the rest of the prices the same as their competitors). That would get them more customers while costing them nothing.

EDIT: I can’t give you an example of an ISP that offers free static IPv6 because there are no ISPs in my country that offer IPv6.

50%?? I fucking wish. In Spain we are at 5%. I finally got IPv6 in my phone this year, but I want it in my home, which is still only available as IPv4 even if they’re the same ISP.

In the world of computers, why would remembering numbers be the stop for new technologies?

Do you remember anyone’s public key? Certificate?

I don’t even remember domain (most) names, just Google them or save them as bookmarks or something.

The reason IPv4 still exists is because ISPs benefit from its scarcity. Big ISPs already paid a lot of money to own IPv4 addresses, if they switched to IPv6 that investnywould be worthless.

Try selling static IPv6 addresses as they do now with IPv4. People would laugh at them and just get a free IPv6 address from an ISP that wants to get new users and doesn’t charge for it.

The longer ISPs delay the adoption of IPv6, the longer they can milk IPv4 scarcity.

If you place a data center in a 100% green location, then you’re reducing the supply of 100% energy, so everything else has to consume less green energy. Therefore, by using 100% green energy you just increased your carbon footprint.

Green energy, like all resources, is limited. If you waste it on a glorified food predictor you can’t use it on a electric harvester that will feed the people.

Even if you want to avoid this problem and create your own green power plant for your own data center (creating the green supply and demand at the same time), you are still spending green energy resources (rare metals and manufacturing capacity) that went into creating your powerplant instead of creating a powerplant for electric harvesters.

There’s no way around it. Misusing electricity is accelerating climate change, one way or another. Even if the energy you are misusing is 100% green.

Well, it’s the same in rust, that’s why I agree more with the first interpretation.

There is an existing solution in C/C++, just make some binding and call it *.rs

Both python and rust use py and rs in the same way, to signal that it’s the python/rust version of that library.

Of course, there are exceptions, but that’s what usually happens.

Yeah, no python package has “py”, JavaScript “.js” or java “java”. None at all.

Favourite? Windows terminal.

Favourite Linux compatible? Vs code integrated terminal.

The one I actually use on Linux because viscose integrated terminal is not standalone? Konsole, just because it’s the default In kde.

EDIT: may I know why I got downvoted? Just because I have an unpopular preference? Is this reddit?

I don’t think I’ve ever noticed Firefox updating. The only sign I get that it updates is that when it does a special tab opens telling me about the new features.

Even for someone that doesn’t leave their basement, can’t use the computer in bed.
