1 in 7 means lots of friend groups just don’t have players. It’s very likely that many children will grow up without really knowing what roblox is.

There’s no way it has 100% market penetration.
If the language makes common but dofficult to deal with error impossible, that’s nice. Not critical, but nice.
If the language introduces easy to make and hard to deal with errors, that’s an issue. Not a deal breaker, but an issue.
The idea does exist, but it’s stated with way more confidence and finality than it deserves. That’s social media I guess.
The evolution strategy: if you don’t know what you’re doing, every function is a feature!


A very low current transformer, more of kess yeah.
Some lights will charge op and flicker, others have a constant glow. The speed/brightness depends on how long the wire is, so most residential lamps are unnoticeable even when it happens, but large rooms and weird wiring can make it more obvious.


LEDs are so efficient that even microamps can power them. If your LED driver is cheap, it’ll run on basically nothing, or charge up enough to start for a fraction of a second.
The microamps come from a hot wire running next to a switched wire behaving as a capacitor when carrying AC voltage, letting microamps leak through. (It’s not required that the light is on the hot side of the switch as I said previously, my bad).
This can happen if the switch box is a terminal box with hot and switched wires in the same cable, which is rather common. Probably some other configurations too.


Honestly, I “upgraded” my phone to the 8 year newer model, and besides the easy numbers like CPU speed, RAM, and storage, it’s a straight downgrade. No headphone jack, slower charging, 50% chance of worse battery life (something slurps like mad sometimes), a hole in the screen, fewer buttons, a bunch of my apps don’t work anymore, fewer sensors, worse case selection, fatter & heavier, and the big G won’t stop pestering me to install malware.
I still use my old mobile more. It really just needs a new battery and some extra RAM.


Worse, if the LED is wired to the hot side it will just barely glow at all times.


Yet Another Better Barrel Attempt (YABBA)


The low spec target seems pretty important.


There’s a project that persists non-flatpack software, though it might screw up if it changes something that Valve updates: https://github.com/Chloe-ko/SteamDeckPersistentRootFs
A more reliable method would be installing them in distrobox. It’s kinda like a VM, but it uses the same kernel so it’s not much slower.


Server-side anti-cheat is the best solution, and doesn’t require any malware on the user’s machine. It’s harder though, and might need beefier servers, so…


Steam Deck is held back by the perception of mobile gaming. Many don’t know how powerful it is, so it competes with the Switch more than PS5.
When I first got into linux, I was having trouble with sound issues, and my track pad had pointer acceleration and was always the wrong speed.
Wayland apparently had a fix for the trackpad settings not taking, so I switched to logging in with Wayland before it was the distro default, and almost all of my problems disappeared instantly. The only real issue I had then was screen sharing, which is fixed now.
X11 has only given me problems. I’m sure it was great at one point, but it certainly did not back me up.
Does Vibrant Visuals not use Ray Tracing, or do you mean the RTX mode specifically? If you need specifically the windows 10 version, you could try WinApps or WinBoat, but I’d be surprised if you don’t take a significant performance hit. If graphics in a voxel game are what’s holding you back, I guess the meme is relevant.


I’ve had decent results running jetbrains IDEs from a Fedora Toolbx, probably doesn’t have to be fedora though. You just have to start them from a toolbox terminal.
You can play the android version in desktop mode with the Unofficial *nix Launcher.
A lot of people are afraid of non-standard letters.
It’s not that the program you’re running is malicious, but that it has an exploitable flaw. Because it’s a GUI app, a lot of things can touch it, which might be something malicious or something with another exploitable flaw.
Memory leaks are often difficult to deal with, and many contemporary languages basically encourage them. I know many applications that suffer significant performance issues due to memory leaks, and way too many that simply don’t care about memory footprint.
A language that treats memory management differently from the start makes all these problems much easier to deal with, if they appear at all. The real question is if the other costs of using the language are worth the somewhat niche performance gains.
