I have no background or knowledge on this. I would like to make an app for performance engine building that has various pages with various formulas, unit conversions, tool lists, etc. What program do I use to make an app? I’ve seen Surge, Bevy, and Godot but those seem to be for games....
Godot can be used for any app, not just games. (Same goes for the other engines, I assume.) Though I can’t say if you would have an easier time picking it up, rather than the traditional Java or Kotlin route.
I love the app so far but I am having trouble with opening Lemmy links from other instances. When someone links to say a Lemmy.world post, I am hit with a window saying I have to have a Lemmy.world account in order to vote and such. This is incredibly inconvenient, I don’t know how voyager does it but voyager just lets me view...
Not even the official Lemmy app can do that. I don’t know how Voyager does it, but afaik there is no straightforward way to get to the same post on a different instance. I’m curious, if someone can tell me! (And save me having to decipher it from the source code)
Hi all. I bring in pretty much every loaf I post here into my work. Work for a decent sized corp so it gets devoured quickly. One of the people who works there has offered me a part-time position to make custom breads for his family owned restaurant. Starting with those mini taro+matcha loafs....
A better title might be, “Solutions to newcomers’s most common problems with Linux”
The video is about the results of a survey regarding the problems people are having using Linux. Only 10% of them described themselves as beginners. That would not be a good title.
I personally see zero condescending tone in it. The video doesn’t prove to be toxic like you described either.
IMO this just isn’t a good community for this, because nobody clicks on a 20 minute video to figure out what it has to do with “Linux Gaming”. Plus YT links are almost always downvoted anyways. I agree that the title isn’t the best, because it fails to convey what the video actually contains.
Hi there, I’m on Bazzite KDE and recently somehow lost a my “gaming” folder…? No idea how but must gave been user faulty, e.g me. Therefore wondering if it’s possible to lock certain folders so that this cannot accidentally happen?
If you have the space (on a different drive, preferably) you could use Timeshift to create regular snapshots of (parts of) your system. You can restore deleted files like this from even months ago, if you configure it like that.
The first snapshot takes up as much space as all the files you want to save, but every following one only uses as much disk space as the new/changed files since the last snapshot.
Lemmy does not show you personalized content. Your feeds (All, Subscribed, Local) can be sorted by a couple of basic algorithms such as “New”, “Top Day”, “Controversial”, or “Active”. Vegan stuff seems to do well on Active because people are commenting, even though it doesn’t get the most upvotes.
I’m sick of Windows, and especially what it’s become, and the way its trending looks like it will only get worse.

I am solidly familiar with Ubuntu, but I...
Proton can run any Windows-only game on steam, you just have to enable it in the settings. The ones for which you didn’t have to enable this either have a native linux version, or are officially supported in Proton, and should run very well. The other games may have more issues, but even those might work excellently out of the box.
I think my first Bethesda game was Skyrim and I love Skyrim. I’ve played through Skyrim when it first came out I played through it again in the DLC came out. I played through it again on the switch I have since played through it again on PC. I love Skyrim. I played it so many times and I know it’s a meme to keep re-releasing...
Fallout’s every mechanic keeps disappointing me, but I can always see a glimpse of how great they could be, so I keep playing. Maybe that’s just not good enough for you.
Hi! I’m getting a new laptop any day now and I plan on going back to Linux after maybe a decade on Windows. What works best for gaming nowadays? Is manjaro good for that? I prefer a distro with a nice name but of course that’s not the central thing. I’ll also do some book keeping, writing et cetera but I don’t think...
Could it have been multiple spiders moving into the same burrow after the first one died?
from the first reference in the article:
There is a high level of certainty that #16 lived for 43 years. Neither males nor females re-use the defunct burrow of another spider. Adult spiders do not relocate if their burrow is damaged, but repair their existing burrow.
I have friends that send me tiktok links via whatsapp and then they ask questions about it like “what do you think, scam or not”.

Maybe at some point in its journey across all the social medias someone cleaned and sharpened it with AI? Perhaps it was able to deal with the large letters, but not the small jpegged ones.
My favourite part is that in the actual episode there is exactly as much context for it as when you stumble onto this (or any of its mutations) on youtube.
Hi all! I got a weeping cherry bonsai from my mom today and am really excited. I’ve always wanted to get into bonsai, but I’ve heard they are extremely difficult to care for so I’ve been a little hesitant. Well, now I’ve got one and I would very much like it to thrive. Any advice? It says it wants 8-12 hours of direct...
I can’t help you very much. My first ginkgo bonsai is sitting on the shelf as a dried up reminder of my mistakes…
That being said, I’m sure you can find specific info for caring about your species. I was going to recommend Herons Bonsai, but I don’t think Peter has made a video about this one specifically. For general bonsai wisdom, though, you might look them up!
