Aww, it’s like he’s keeping his nose warm with his tail.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•If a Lemmy user has the same name as a community, how can I tag the community on Mastodon?English
0·7 days agoThank you! That’s too bad.

0·7 days agoThat’s interesting, I’ll try to learn more about that.
So, in this case, the community I was trying to post to was [email protected]. There is also a user with that name on lemmy.world. If I search “[email protected]” on Mastodon, does that mean both of them should show up? And what would their names be? One would start with
!and the other start with?

0·7 days agoI think that’s just a way of getting a link to the community, but it doesn’t actually tag the community in your post or make it get posted into that community. I just tried it, and the post does not show up in the community that I mentioned with
!.
I find that it’s good enough for things like the main menu or the pause menu. But I don’t find it usable if I’m having to accurately click something while gameplay is happening. And if I want to minimize the game and look something up on the web, it’ll take me five attempts to click a link with it.
Oh cool, glad to know that Returnal takes advantage of it. I don’t have any games that take advantage of the haptics right now, but I’ve been wanting to try one. And I was already wanting to check out Returnal at some point.
I have a Sony Dualsense controller and haven’t had any problems with it as a game controller. However, I’m always launching games through Steam, or letting Steam run in the background (so that it’s handling the controller input remapping). I don’t know if that’s what you plan on doing; I’ve never tried it without Steam handling the inputs.
My one complaint about it is that the trackpad isn’t good enough to use as a mouse when you’re navigating the desktop. So I ended up switching back to my original Steam controller.

Web Development@programming.dev•Anti-frameworkism: Choosing native web APIs over frameworksEnglish
0·14 days agoI’m definitely a fan of avoiding huge frameworks.
One complaint I have about plain old JS and HTML, though, is that you end up writing a lot of HTML components as just strings. Plain strings of text that is supposed to be valid HTML, but you’re not going to get any help with formatting, linting, or even just syntax highlighting when a lot of your code is literally just a big string. The example of Web Components in this post even shows that.
It mentions developer experience vs. user experience as a nod to this, and the “every HTML components is just a big old javascript string” problem is one I always run into early on with my hobby projects, which makes me decide to use a small UI framework pretty quickly. My favorite is Mithril. It’s tiny and does basically what you want React to do, without being React. You write these nested Javascript functions that get turned into HTML. So there’s no extra loader step, and it plays nicely with Typescript.

Linux@programming.dev•Gentoo’s 2025 Report: Financial Health and the Push Away From GitHubEnglish
16·15 days agoSeeing major projects move away from GitHub is so encouraging, I love it. But hopefully people also see that codeberg can use some donations to be able to handle the new traffic. (Which reminds me, I need to do that…)
I managed to stop my constant buying and flipping habit last year and didn’t acquire any. But I’m thinking about getting one of the Seiko 5 GMT models this year. Or, a different brand that uses the same movement.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Self hosted Kanban board with good mobile supportEnglish
8·23 days agoThe only one I’ve tried before is Wekan. I’m not a heavy kanban user, I just basically wanted to put sticky notes in columns, and it worked for that. Looks like it has the features you’re needing, though. There’s read-only demo here: https://boards.wekan.team/b/D2SzJKZDS4Z48yeQH/wekan-open-source-kanban-board-with-mit-license
It looks fairly mobile-friendly, and I think they have Android and iOS apps, too.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's an unpopular UI opinion you have?English
0·1 month agoGmail is the best (worst) example of this. They literally have EVERY possible icon for “settings” on the page at once.
There’s a hamburger button. There’s a three dots button. There’s a NINE DOTS BUTTON. There’s a cog. There’s a slider icon. And you click your profile picture for “manage your account.”

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's an unpopular UI opinion you have?English
0·1 month agoUnpopular opinion: people like UIs.
OK, that one is only unpopular on specific, Linux-heavy parts of the internet. (Like… right here.) And even then, there aren’t that many people who disagree with me. But there are definitely a few people who have this idea that we’d all be using super fast, powerful command line applications for all of our tasks, were it not for big tech pushing the graphical interface on us.
I get it; I’m a command-line person myself. And big tech has pushed a lot of anti-user changes. But the truth is that most users want to use a mouse, they want to have a GUI, and the shift from keyboard to mouse wasn’t simply because Microsoft wanted to limit the users’ capability.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's your favorite OLD Youtube video?English
0·1 month agoYouTube is my life, a song from 2007: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=p21nZmtq56M
Still gets stuck in my head sometimes. Also, some of the lyrics show just how different Youtube (and internet videos in general) were back then.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•For those of you that made new friendships this yearEnglish
0·1 month agoI went to a bar to get a beer after work, and ended up talking for a little bit with the guy sitting next to me. Then we ran into each other again at a coffee shop. So now we get a drink after work on purpose every once in a while. It’s great.

Baconator Aero was the best design trend.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•How do you healthcheck your containers?English
3·1 month agoSame here. I’m the only user of my services, so if I try visiting the website and it’s down, that’s how I know it’s down.
I prefer phrasing it differently, though. “With my current uptime monitoring strategy, all endpoints serve as an on-demand healthcheck endpoint.”
One legitimate thing I do, though, is have a systemd service that starts each docker compose file. If a container crashes, systemd will notice (I think it keeps an eye on the PIDs automatically) and restart them.












No, but it does have three antennas, which you can position to form The Trident of Portseidon.
