We got a winner here

Oh, so the main reason why it's so good?
Yeah all of the times I see Rust being described as "harder to learn" than C I just shake my head. It's like saying that it's easier to just fall off the cliff at the Grand Canyon instead of taking the path down. Any additional difficulty is because the language forces you to understand memory and pointers properly, instead of just letting you fuck around and find out.
I mean, I'm assuming that because that's what he's saying in the text.
That's not what the post is about, it's entirely about the android TV app. I assume they already built the functionally to generate the alarm signal (since it's the entire raison d'etre for the company based on the name).
Good God I hate linkedin types. Imagine thinking writing an app that literally just displays a single notification is worthy of making a whole post about. They basically wrote a Hello World app for Android TV. And I'm sure they got paid like 40k by some poor school district to do so.
Ah right, I remember being caught by that before. Fixed, thanks.
This is currently one of the biggest selling points for the browser, since Chrom(ium) is dropping support for v2... So I don't see that happening.
An actual WM is not a DE, and if you use something like i3 (sway is the Wayland version) all it does is manage your windows. A DE includes a WM; GNOME's is called ~~gdm~~ Mutter. If you install a WM yourself, that's all you get. Docks, bars, etc. might have suggested or sibling implementations for a given WM, but you'll be setting them up yourself and you can easily swap in other options, or just not have them. There's also no included software suite with things like a file manager. You're expected to pick and use whatever tools you like, which is exactly the appeal but can be intimidating if you're used to a full fledged DE.
Tiling is just a way of organizing your windows, as opposed to the more common "floating" scheme that all the major desktop UIs use. You can totally use tiling in a DE, you just need an extension for it. I know they exist for GNOME and I'm sure there's a way to do it on kde too. Even Windows has tiling modes available.
So you can probably just enable tiling on your current setup to try it out (or install GNOME on your VM --i know that PopOS! used to have a built in tiling mode, but it's been years since I tried that so ymmv). Moving to a WM instead of a DE is a very different and more involved process that's mostly for people who want a totally custom setup with no extraneous features that they don't explicitly set up. It's basically the UI side of doing an LFS or classic Arch install where you pick which system components to use by hand.
I think Alien is a great movie (and definitely horror), but whether it scares modern audiences is pretty hit and miss. It's very slow paced and while I love the practical effects, the alien looks downright goofy in some scenes. I certainly don't find it scary having seen it, and new viewers I've shown it to usually aren't that scared unless they're self-identified wimps when it comes to horror. Aliens is scarier I think, even though it's more action than pure horror.
Same goes 10x for The Exorcist. It tops a lot of "scariest movie ever" lists online, but watching it today is more comical than anything. I think you have to be scared of demonic possession actually happening IRL to get scared by that movie.
Oh god, survival crafting games were a dime a dozen back then. Though I am eagerly awaiting the 1.0 release of Satisfactory next month so clearly I never got my fill :p
Brother it's on other platforms... What's your complaint? It's a UE5 game 🧐
