@Ulrich Which quote, the “first half of this year” one? Yeah, that was a post in February. A few weeks later, Valve posts a new blog saying “we hope to ship in 2026” which absolutely suggests that NOT shipping in 2026 is also a possibility. That’s the quote everyone reported on, which was later revised to say “we will be shipping all three products this year.” This is all a ton of noise and speculation based on a single line that ended up being a misphrasing but it wasn’t wrong based on the information at the time.


@Ulrich Per other discussions on this, that’s because that part was edited later. Polygon’s quote from yesterday’s blog was correct at the time, but is outdated now. (And they should update their article accordingly.)
Addressing the trio of new hardware releases planned for this year, Valve said, “We hope to ship in 2026, but as we shared recently, memory and storage shortages have created challenges for us. We’ll share updates publicly when we finalize our plans!”
@Evil_Shrubbery Haven’t gotten the update yet, but based on the release notes it appears 3.7 introduces an emoji search box, which was much-needed! Really happy to see that.


@Reisen Among other things, it’s useful in terminals where the standard ctrl-c/ctrl-v send a control signal rather than copy/paste. Most terminals nowadays have some other copy/paste shortcut so it’s less important now, but a lot of us still find it convenient.


@Kolanaki @t3rmit3 The linked article is using “casual” to refer to a number of different traits - competitiveness is one of them, but also how demanding they are for your time and attention. Casual was probably the wrong word to choose, since it already has a different meaning for most gamers, but the thesis is more about the return of low-stakes FPS games that you can pick up here and there to goof off without being milked for every minute and dollar you can spare.
An old guard of life-consuming live-service games remains a vibrant and popular part of this genre, but they’re once again sharing the space with—and even adopting the attributes of—a more casual breed. Games that don’t mind if you only play them once in a while. Games that let you make your own fun, encourage cooperation, or earn our respect by not bombarding us with ads.


@ggtdbz @Hello_there The author actually has a post on this, too: https://マリウス.com/never-click-on-a-link-that-looks-like-that/
(I’m guessing you deliberately avoided it since the person you’re responding to would also refuse to click that but I think it’s an interesting read for anyone who hasn’t seen it)


@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Good stuff, love the drag and drop improvements!


@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Omg THANK YOU for the per-workspace layouts.


@prole Fedora, which Bazzite is based on, disables this at boot time by default. There are instructions on how to enable it in Fedora here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Sysrq#How_do_I_enable_the_magic_SysRq_key%3F


@P4ulin_Kbana @potentiallynotfelix fw = fuck with. It means they like it.


@AVincentInSpace @remington The Lemmy devs are infamously difficult to work with. They’ve repeatedly shown an unwillingness to even acknowledge the existence of the many problems that instance admins face. That has been a big driver in Beehaw’s decision to move platforms, not just because of a difference in political views, and they’ve been pretty open about discussing it. You’re way off-base.
Some newer laptops use MIPI cameras which aren’t as consistently supported on Linux yet. The situation has improved a lot in the last couple years, but if you can, check compatibility for the specific laptop and distribution/kernel version you plan to use.
