Red beans have their own kind of sweet. I don't know what to compare them with.
I'd say you can try to think of boba tea (not western i know), but instead it's hot, with textures of very fine sand.
Cha cha (ε³ε)
Imagine red bean soup, with a slight taste of coconut.
I do have that. I have been through the pain of running the OS on an HDD with my old computer and ever since I got an SSD, I can't return.

Adult me thinks.
You know why we lack philosophy now
I have an internal DVD-RW drive, but I disconnected the cable to use it for a new HDD I bought a few weeks ago
High humidity is worse, and it's for at least 6 months
Ok this is getting pointless. I'm just stating that I use air conditioner, and Hong Kong is so fking small the median apartment size is like 430 sqft. Most households don't need and can't afford a vent.
Yes. It's Asian culture :)
Living with your parents and taking care of them is considered a good quality
it doesn't get hot where you live.
23.5Β°N, subtropical, average summer air temperature 32Β°C
I just ranted about it not supporting Cantonese the other day
θΆ~~~!
I think that already exists? I remember seeing it on Lemmy some months ago. I'll try to find it.
Ah right, vents. I don't have any. I don't think anyone at where I live has vents in their houses ( actually, apartments)
And I just felt like it would be common sense to trap heat/cold.
The fun thing is that, the Internet lacks Cantonese support.
I'm a Hongkonger and often need to type in Chinese. While I can use input methods like Cangjie or Quick, I much prefer handwriting to keep in mind how to write the characters in a digital age.
So far, I have only seen open source keyboards without handwriting support. Does any of them exist?
I have 2 physical output devices, say "speakers" and "headphones", and I frequently switch between them.
I also have a script that creates 2 virtual sinks for voice call and game by loading module-combine-sink twice on "speakers" and "headphones".
It works, but it's annoying that every time I want to switch device, I also need to mute the other one.
Ideally, I want to use module-remap-sink instead, remapping the 2 virtual sinks to the default one. This is where I'm stuck. What do I put in for master?

For a few months now, Pipewire has been acting in weird ways. Before I upgraded to Plasma 6, after a screen blank (not suspend) no media can be played. For example, YouTube player is in the loading state for a long time, eventually playing without sound, VLC doesn't start for a few minutes.
I have to restart the Pipewire Systemd service to fix it. This restart process takes much longer than usual (<1 seconds). Sometimes it takes up to 5 minutes.
Now with Plasma 6, it also does the same after the initial login. I'm guessing this is because Plasma ignores some KWIN_X11_* env var?
However, if I restart the Pipewire service prior to playing any media after login or screen blank, it takes <1 seconds and everything plays correctly.
This seems to be the problem with the HDMI audio only, as switching to the USB headphones (before screen blanks) prevents this from happening.
How should I start troubleshooting this? What other details should I provide?
I'm working on a presentation about the Fediverse, and would like to end the presentation with a slogan. Any ideas?
Edit: I probably should've specified more stuff. This is an informative presentation, not persuasive, and I don't plan to get into the enshittification. Ideally I don't want to include any corporations.
Edit 2: My title is "The Future is Everywhere"
Matters are not evenly distributed.
Edit: lol this is as controversial as I expected
I remember reading somewhere (probably my high school textbook) that one of the reasons people don't like wind power being built is they cause visual pollution.
In my opinion, I think it would be pretty cool to just look out my window and see a giant windmill there, the opposite of visual pollution.
I had a moment to think about why I like certain games, and I have figured out some criteria for myself,
- Vibrant colours
- Simple/Cartoon-ish looks
- Mid/High level of complexity in mechanics
That's why my current favourite game is Splatoon 3, followed by Minecraft, and the list consists mostly of Nintendo games.
What's your criteria?
[Splatoon 1 / Mario Kart 8] Online services for these games will resume on Aug 3 at 1 am UTC. A software update will be required. Nintendo notes that online play may be permanently shut down in the future if it continues to be difficult to keep the services running. https://www.nintendo.co.jp/su...
According to OatmealDome, online services will resume on Aug 3 at 1 am UTC.
