But that's assuming everyone brings their phone along everywhere and not everyone knows how to scan a QR code or even (think elderly people, for example) owns a smartphone.

I do agree that it's more sanitary, though. I did go to a place a while ago that had a QR code on the table which I thought was really cool, actually. Because it allowed me to place my order on my phone and even pay on my phone. But they offered a physical menu as well.

Yes, the 2nd one implies that there should be more than one.

I only recently switched to Linux / POP!_OS so I'm still getting used to the file types, but what are .cue files generally used for? I don't think I've downloaded .cue files before.

Oh this is awesome! I really missed Atom and VSC just isn't the same.

Thank you for sharing!

You can make an account in a different instance and still access the lemmy.world content.

The engine following in Blender's footsteps would most likely be Godot.

That must've been an expensive phone call. I hate when they leave you waiting for ages and then charge extra even though it's wasting your time, not theirs.

I've probably been living under a rock or something but I don't think I've heard Atari being mentioned in a while (or maybe my brain just filtered it out or something). Does anyone know what they've been up to lately?

Just to be clear, this is for POP!_OS, right? And does it automatically update my POP!_OS installation or is it a completely new distro that I'd have to do a clean install for?

Yeah it took me a while to figure out it was about those two apps. I thought OP meant any app.

Oh really? So that's why my Windows system clock was way off after I installed Linux a few weeks ago?

I ran dual boot for a few weeks until my PSU broke which corrupted my Windows installation (I've been using Linux exclusively ever since) but when I was using Windows during that time sometimes I'd accidentally end up going to bed super late because the system clock said it was about 2 hours earlier than it really was.

I love good movies that are actually good. But lately I haven't been feeling too well physically (health problems -.-) and needed something to watch. And I ended up watching a lot of movies that are generally considered bad. And I liked them. Because I watched them for what they were and didn't have any expectations.

I thought some were actually 'decent'. Not the best, but definitely not the trash people said it was (on IMDB and RT) . And then there were some that were really really bad. But most of them were fun! Not good, but fun, which is what I'm usually looking for when watching a movie anyway.

The types of movies or TV shows I like to watch really depend on how I feel. Sometimes I want to watch movie that makes me think or have a big impact and sometimes I want to watch a movie for its entertainment factor. In the end, if I was entertained while watching the movie, the movie was good enough to me at that time.

I do the same. My husband calls me a 'game hopper' as I move from game to game and rarely finish one. I mean, I do usually get back to them. Eventually. But if it's a game with a story it's going to be hard to get back into it after so many weeks or months. Which means that it seems more fun to start over... meaning that I tend to stop playing around the same point. So yeah, it's hard to finish a game. :D

I mean, I really do want to 'be able to' finish games (I mean yeah I can...it's just hard haha), but on the other hand, if I got what I wanted out of it, it's not a waste of time or money. Plus I'm getting to experience a lot of different games instead of a select number of games, so it's not that bad. :)

I'm the same with books. I'm finding it very hard to finish a book, but what does help is using a read tracker app (the one I use is actually called ReadTracker. It's on Android) to track my progress. Basically I can just start a timer when I start reading and when I'm done I stop the timer, log my progress and the app will give me an estimate on how long it would take me to finish the book (based on my past progress). This is nice, because knowing that it I keep going I'll finish the book in 3 hours feels more doable than not knowing it at all. Plus I really like graphs and statistics and these kinds of apps give me that as well.

I never understood why people liked Notepad++ so much. I always just used Notepad for simple text file editing and quick notes so I didn't see the point.

But I recently switched to POP!_OS and the text editor has lots of features Notepad doesn't have (such as line numbers, indentation, and I can select the (programming) language I am writing the document in) and I found myself really liking these features.

I like our new Samsung dryer as it plays a tune when it's done plus I get a notification on my phone. When our washing machine eventually breaks I want one that has similar features so it's easier to keep track.

I loved that movie as well and didn't understand the hate.

I had the same problem but a fix someone on Github mentioned works for me.

Go to your Settings (in LibreTube) > Audio and Video and enable both 'Use HLS' and 'LBRY HLS'. That fixed it for me. Hope it works for you, too!

So this is the Pluto of the internet?

To be honest, despite the smaller community, I feel more at home in the Fediverse than ever I did in those big, bloated, commercial communities.

No, but only because when I try to it gives me a blank screen and no option to actually make the payment. Once that's been fixed I'll definitely pay like I did for Boost for Reddit!
