@chr joking aside I think macos application bundles are a very clever solution to the "programs have to be a lot of different pieces of data" problem

@chr it's only a file if it's stored in a file inode, otherwise it's a sparkly folder

@onfy @monorail most of them have the inputs on cards you stick in the back afaik

@fillertrack zsh with the grml-zshrc (it's already the default terminal on Mac OS but a good config elevates it), homebrew, Rectangle for window snapping/tiling

@unascribed luckily php8 shortens that to a third of the lines

shork boosted

I'm trying to figure out what the minimum iOS version I need to support is, so I'd like to have a bit of a better understanding of what people are running. So, if you are NOT on iOS 16, what's your reason?

Again, this is just if you are not on iOS 16. If you ARE running iOS 16, please answer the next poll instead!

re: "borderless" apps 

@clarfonthey a window in Windows will always be triple buffered afaik and stuff like FreeSync/GSync has a hard time with windowed content

re: "borderless" apps 

@clarfonthey alt-tabbing out of true fullscreen still takes noticeably longer and hides the fullscreen application, even if I'm alt-tabbing onto my second monitor. If I want to play a game and use $chat_app at the same time I have to run it borderless or it's a pain

tangentially related, I refuse to run Discord in fullscreen because it's a chat app, it shouldn't need that, and god does it love wasting space already

If you have the "just x boosts to go" enabled on your discord server I assume you like putting ads in front of my face and hate my screen real estate

@dogo I mean "litterboxes in school bathrooms" happened already

definitely don't search for the game on archive.org or macintoshgarden and don't back it up to your hard drive, that would be illegal

This is the wildest thing, apparently there's a resurgence in interest in a bizarre Japanese point-n-click because some collector is mad his copy of it got leaked? I'd love if this makes the game popular enough for a translation effort because it looks fun

@pup_hime from what I heard if you roughly know how Docker works container installation is the way to go

@Eramdam@octodon.social "there's no reason mainline shouldn't have this feature my favorite fork has" is a thing I think constantly :/

re: misinformation 

@nano@yiff.life his mom's very proud!
