I've recently switched from Windows to Linux and generally I'm using Lazygit on the terminal or SourceGit on the desktop. SourceGit is by and large a very similar UI to Sourcetree but faster (and open source / cross platfrom)

The phone number requirement is a recent change I believe to deter people from creating multiple accounts, so any old timers probably didn't have to use a phone number to sign up.

Wait, that's the actual headline? Ffs. Dumbing down of mainstream media continues apace. I really hope that was written by an LLM and not someone who went to University to study journalism.

I'm going to guess that they didn't. And Josh just said whatever he had to to meet his sales target for the month.

"all the agents at the dealership now have notes at their cubicle about Private Travelers because of this transaction"

I bet they do.

It's hardly surprising that a theory advocated by groups that normally don't give two shits about killing animals turns out to be false.

As a parent myself now, I completely understand this behavior.

I saw this on Mastodon posted by @[email protected] and figured that it was appropriate for this community and absolutely not controversial in any way shape or form.

It's a Thursday again. The worst day of the week. Or is it? Disguised as a Wednesday for those south of the border, and a Tuesday for those of us in the land of the Scots.

What are your moans for this day and this week, the first week of the work year?

Personally, I've added app timers to all my time sink apps in an effort to become less dependent on my phone. It's 9.40am and I've already maxed out Megalodon, so I'm onto Lemmy/Voyager. Going well.

Also... I'm still off with the kids. Edinburgh schools didn't break up until the 22nd of December. Which seemed like a good idea at the time, but we're paying for it now.

Bad bot. You skipped the main part:

"At first it was called Ehfir," Putin said. "And at one of my public speeches I was talking and said it was Sfera. I arrived at the Kremlin, and the former Roscosmos head greeted me and said, 'Vladimirovich, you said it was project Sfera, Sfera you said. That's what it is, project Sfera.'"

I'm sorry to report the continued decline of Aldi's "Scottish Blend" tea. It is now beyond terrible. Awful. The worst. The worse of the worst. Even worse than that.

Naturally I'm not going to go from an Aldi special to Twinings. I'm not made of money. So, I'm looking for recommendations of a good cheap tea. Ideally one that goes well with your plant milk as well as cow juice.

If possible, Sainsburys, M&S, Aldi, Food Warehouse or Poundies. Maybe Lidl at a stretch. They others are too far away and require me going in the car, and I'm too ~~lazy~~ environmentally conscious for that.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Or Asda! For some reason I forgot that Asda is literally the nearest supermarket to the house.

If you're not paying you are the product. If you ARE paying you are STILL the product. This is how big tech works.

Tuesday, Tuesday. Up here in Scotland (specifically Edinburgh) it's the last day of the school holidays. To any other parents north of the border - we've done it, folks. The end is in sight. Looking forward to tomorrow's hectic early morning followed by a day of bliss.

Anyway, TV and Tunes Tuesday! Whatcha watching and listening to? Recommendations for movies, TV shows and music please!

Personally I have the last episode of Strange New Worlds, which I'm saving for tomorrow lunchtime and then it's sayonara Paramount +. We've also just finished the reboot of Quantum Leap, which was cheesy but fun.

Music wise. Well, I'm a gen-xer so I've been listening to the remasters of the Lush albums. Long live shoegaze, the only correct style of dancing.

Don't get me wrong. I'm a big fan of marmite. But I'm not an animal. I have it on toast, or a bagel, or maybe a toastie if I'm feeling reckless.

But my son wants marmite sandwiches. Sandwiches! How is it possible to spread marmite on bread without the bread disintegrating? Is there a technique that in my five decades on this earth I have not been able to master?

It would be great to have the option of a short summary for the post content in the "Large list" view. For example the first 100 or so characters of a post text. Either that or the option to limit the length of the post content shown in the "full" view. Thanks!

It's Saturday! For many of us, probably the best day of the week. Even if it turns out to be crap then we still have Sunday waiting in reserve.

So, what are your exciting plans for this, a traditional drizzly British summer weekend?

We were planning another two day camping trip, but with thunderstorms forecast at our destination, I think as a family we have all decided to dump that concept and just doss around instead.

Yay! It's Friday!

After a week of niceish weather, we await the inevitable rain. But on the plus side, it's almost the weekend!

Personally we are off camping, in doing so encouraging precipitation. But what exciting things do you have planned for the weekend?

The tyranny of Thursday is upon us. Another one of these "not quite the weekend days" that life keeps throwing at us. What has got you fuming on this, the worst day of the week?

Oh hi. I'm not a mod or anything but felt the urge to try and post a daily chat thread. Game development can sometimes be a battle behind the scenes. I've been banging my head against a bug with a 3rd party library all week. Sometimes you need a fresh approach and today I came at it again from another angle. Turns out a DLL was being unloaded because of an API change, so the fix was to add a const & to stop my reference being deleted and the DLL unloading. 6 extra characters and it all works again! TODAY I FEEL INVINCIBLE!

Have you had any gamedev wins this Wednesday? Big or small, there is nothing like a win halfway through the week.

Don't use the hump word or it's an instaban! Just kidding, I'm no mod, I'm just some guy, you know.

What games have you been playing this last week? Video games or other. Have you gone back to Tears of the Kingdom yet? Are you spending the rainy school holidays stuck inside playing Pokemon cards with your kids? Found something in the Steam summer sale you want to shout about? Let us know here.

Didn't have my glasses on this morning when I ground the beans and my espresso seems to be 1ml of coffee oil.
