Linux@programming.dev•Linux players on Steam hit an all-time high for November 2025
10·4 days agoGot the survey the other day on my OpenSUSE laptop and my OpenSUSE Steam Deck. I’m doing my part!

Linux@programming.dev•Valve's version of Android on Linux (based on Waydroid) is now called Lepton
6·4 days agoEpic is already selling Android games. Would be dumb of the others not to do the same. I’m honestly astonished they haven’t jumped on that train earlier. Especially with those big Android ports of older PC games a scheme of buy once play everywhere is pretty obvious. But apart from Itch nobody is doing that.

3·8 days agoIt does at least respect daylight savings. I guess it uses whatever your phone reports as the current local time.

You can even set it up to require photo evidence of you taking your meds.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•What are some of the worst code you have seen in a production environment?
16·12 days agoHad a programmer like this when I was still an apprentice. He was so full of himself. Was originally a Java programmer but had to program in PHP because that was what ran on the server. I never found out why he couldn’t just put Java on the server. We had full control.
All his variables were first names. Like
$klausand$grobi. Because he was afraid of clashing with reserved keywords. The thing is, in PHP all variables begin withexactly to prevent this issue. So he brought that habit over from Java which was far superior and not such a “Mickey Mouse language”.I mean, he wasn’t totally wrong, especially back then PHP was awful. But he surrounded every function with
and(PHP was designed to be combined with HTML output outside of these tags) and had plenty of whitespace between them and couldn’t fathom why all his html files had huge swaths of whitespace at the start.His way of preventing SQL injection was to look for SQL keywords in user input and then throwing an error in the log files.
I mean, the One will certainly engage with that.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Community mention spam from MicroblogsEnglish
3·15 days agoJust tested it. A Lemmy-Post is only created in one community, even if other communities are mentioned.
An external post (in this case from WordPress with the Activity Pub plugin) is only posted into the Lemmy community that is mentioned first.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Community mention spam from MicroblogsEnglish
3·15 days agoMeh, I don’t see this as a problem. People already crosspost into multiple relevant communities. If anything doing so with one post is a feature that’s missing from Lemmy/Piefed. Or is it missing? I’ll try posting into multiple communities after this comment.
It seems to me that your problem is more aesthetic in nature. Maybe ask your favourite UI to make a feature to hide mentions and hashtags that are alone on their line.

Ironic.
And it’s taken down most of Lemmy’s “selfhosted” images.

Linux@programming.dev•Can someone please explain what is this ? https://curl.se/
8·19 days agoIt’s a program to download stuff from the web. It is very flexible. You can tell it to use cookies, post form data, upload and download files. It can do basically everything a web browser does without a graphical user interface.
It is built into many software pieces. And developers love it to test stuff.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•The Fediverse and WordPress Should Be Better Friends, with Evan ProdromouEnglish
16·20 days agoThere already are working plugins for that. When I @ a Lemmy community in a WordPress post it gets posted to that community. And comments from Lemmy or Mastodon are also visible on WordPress.
We have the semantic web now! Be better!

Nice. The slow driver upstreaming is what I hate most about Valve’s open source efforts.
