Keybase was popular with some Hacker News users for a while, but now that it's owned by Zoom, anyone concerned about privacy ought to think twice before using it.

XMPP might be worth considering if you're hosting for yourself and all your contacts. I suggest avoiding it for public use, mainly because features are piecemeal and coordinating them across everyone's clients and servers is a bit complicated. (Also, I don't know if there's a good XEP for encrypted search.)

Just in case: Are you sure you selected the Controller Pad tab before adjusting it? Because the UI defaults to the Keyboard tab, and adjusting it there probably wouldn't do anything for you.

Development tools

  • The WineDump tool supports printing the contents of Windows registry files (REGF format), as well as printing data for both architectures in hybrid x86/ARM64 PE files.
  • The composable, default_overload, deprecated, and protected attributes are supported in the IDL compiler.
  • The libwine.so library is removed. It was no longer used, and deprecated since Wine 6.0. Winelib ELF applications that were built with Wine 5.0 or older will need a rebuild to run on Wine 9.0.

Bundled libraries

  • The FluidSynth library version 2.3.3 is bundled and used for DirectMusic.
  • The math library of Musl version 1.2.3 is bundled and used for the math functions of the C runtime.
  • The Zydis library version is 4.0.0 is bundled and used for x86 disassembly support.
  • Vkd3d is updated to the upstream release 1.10.
  • Faudio is updated to the upstream release 23.12.
  • LDAP is updated to the upstream release 2.5.16.
  • LCMS2 is updated to the upstream release 2.15.
  • LibMPG123 is updated to the upstream release 1.32.2.
  • LibPng is updated to the upstream release 1.6.40.
  • LibTiff is updated to the upstream release 4.6.0.
  • LibXml2 is updated to the upstream release 2.11.5.
  • LibXslt is updated to the upstream release 1.1.38.
  • Zlib is updated to the upstream release 1.3.

External dependencies

  • The Wayland client library, as well as the xkbcommon and xkbregistry libraries, are used when building the Wayland driver.
  • The PCSClite library is used for smart card support. On macOS, the PCSC framework can be used as an alternative to PCSClite.
  • For PE builds, a cross-compiler that supports .seh directives for exception handling is required on all platforms except i386.

My understanding is that it got a big surge of users at a time when it wasn't really intended for the public, and is now having growing pains.

The purpose, a spokesperson for the legislature told local media, is to “guide people to deeply understand the trinity of loving the country, the Party, and socialism.”

How is this different from brainwashing?

The game wants me to attack the bagels and won’t let me not do it.

To be fair, I have a hard time not attacking the bagels in real life, too.

Does right-clicking an unoccupied space cancel it? (That works for movement, but I don't know if it works for object interactions.)

Honestly, this should be considered a bug. The game teaches you that clicking a barrel means approach and open it, and then after you've learned that through lots of repetition, it tricks you with an exception that explodes in your face. This is Bad UI 101.

Windows redistributables are installed in each game's Proton (Wine) prefix directory, not globally. However, I have seen an example of Proton continually forgetting that it had already installed .Net for a certain game, which turned out to be due to a registry entry not getting set during install. If you've found a situation like this, it's probably worth reporting on the Proton issue for that game.

people are really big on flatpaks right now but avoided that due to issues with like the two native linux games that still exist in Steam (mostly joking).

I don't know what issues you encountered, but if you're interested in the Flatpak, it might be worth trying those games again, possibly with Steam Linux Runtime manually set in the game's compatibility options. Recent runtime versions have changed how they provide libraries to native linux games.

Yes, but the suggestion was about Steam reviews, not protondb reports.

I have no doubt that the game is outstanding, but after seeing headlines like this all week, it really smells like an advertising campaign.

The Gameplay First Look shows a better view of the environment.

This is not an action game. It's more of a multiplayer chillout space.

I'm glad to see it happening. Sometimes I get tired of endless combat, and just want some low-key exploration or a little hunting or farming. Even better if friends can join. And the price is right.

The open beta starts August 10.

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is a great roguelike.
