Looking at the chart, I guess it’s just one of the destinations a bunch of Manjaro and Ubuntu users moved to and Ubuntu users are probably amazed how a Linux distro without Canonical BS feels like.

It sounds like the water indicator stickers did not change color. But they said that water can still get in / water damage can occur regardless.
I also asked for a picture and they flatly refused that they don’t do that. – https://www.reddit.com/r/consolerepair/comments/1lugq83/bricked_switch_2_nintendo_claiming_water_damage/n1y1kga/

So alleged water damage.
woelkchen@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•Most people in France, Germany, Italy and Spain would support UK rejoining EU, poll findsEnglish1·15 days agoSo Sweden will not join the Euro without a referendum, even though they don’t have an opt out.
Sweden is a member since before the Euro. That’s one of the special treatments pre-Euro member states get. A rejoining UK would be treated like a new member and better come into line.

That’s already a condition. New members cannot opt out of the Euro once the criteria are met.

Disproportionate were Thatcher’s UK Rebate and other unfair opt-outs.
woelkchen@lemmy.worldOPto Games@sh.itjust.works•Romero Games Update (July 7, 2025)English12·21 days agoYeah, it sucks for the people who lose jobs. OTOH after the ABK takeover, Microsoft was suddenly by far the biggest games publisher and no regulatory body had any problems with it. Now Microsoft’s own incompetence is taking care of that.

Also, the developer should update the native version. Consider filing a bug report.
Russia Day is June 12th, though.
No, I meant that revolting against a government without an election system change is replacing one almost dictatorship with another.
First past the post voting system isn’t democratic and can easily be corrupted by Gerrymandering.

The easiest one would be to check for the SteamDeck=1 variable.

woelkchen@lemmy.worldto Games@sh.itjust.works•Games run faster on SteamOS than Windows 11, Ars testing findsEnglish5·1 month agoDid the author run the benchmarks few times to rule out shader compilation.
Why should the author rule it out? Honest question. If shader compilation leads so worse real world experience for gamers on Windows than SteamOS, it is a valid point to include.
Deoccupied Ukraine. Very good.

That answer is at best only partially right.
The real answer is that Pixels were, until very recently, Google’s officially supported reference hardware in AOSP while everything else is a community port of some GPL compliance source code dump.
Community ROMs are Pixel first because Pixels just work.
It’ll change now that Google decided to no longer release Pixel adaptions directly as AOSP and the community will have to port that the same way as for any other vendor, especially if a vendor decides to maintain their adaptions in LineageOS.
