  • Most code I forget too. For a lot of stuff I might vaguely remember when looking at it but some I would deny ever even having seen even when I wrote it (that happened). However, there are some rare parts I could probably still navigate from my previous company and there are some in my current. Really depends on the connection you have to the code.






  • Not sure if it is equal on all distros but on every one I have used it’s a readable string of muliple components. One of them is “usb” for a usb mass storage, so if it is the only one you have connected to your computer it is very obvious. For like sata disks it has the manufacturer and serial on it so you can match what drive it is you want to write to. Also, the name is pretty unique (on your sysytem at least, globally I don’t know), so even if you swap hardware around, you cannot write to the wrong storage if you got the right name. Like “sdb” can be reassigned, but the id is an id.





  • Glad that you might find some games interesting! The comment chains on lemmy are not working too great for me either. In the web UI of programming.dev and the liftoff app your comment in my notifications is fully interactable and therefore I am able to vote or reply. But if I remember correctly, the web UI is fully broken and shows my reply instead of your comment in my notifications if I reply. The context stuff is also interesting. On the web UI the context is not complete and I have no idea how it chooses what it shows. In the liftoff app it shows the context but a lot more than what I personally would call “context” (the complete tree of the root comment that was replied to). AND I am sorry, I missed your notification. The notifications in the liftoff app are so subtle that I basically have to check manually if I have any. And I don’t check because I don’t expect any.

    Addendum: for Guild Wars 2 I have a shitty “guide” if you need one: https://gist.github.com/Nithanim/443362f7b76d9a8d18abea2cb0daa00e



  • List of the best:

    • against the storm
    • deep rock galctic
    • astroneer
    • dyson sphere program
    • escape simulator
    • factorio (native linux)
    • hardspace shipbreaker
    • outer wilds
    • timberborn
    • valheim (native linux)
    • vampire surviors
    • talos principle
    • war for the overworld

    Maybe:

    • monster sanctuary
    • grow home/up (ubisoft development but without the bullshit what you normally get)
    • len’s island
    • superliminal
    • wreckfest
    • guild wars 2 (not indie and not non-AAA but still good; but you have to tweak a lot for performant gameplay)

    Thats a quick list that i got at a glance from steam. It is a collection of a lot of very different genres, so there should be at least something in there for everyone.

    Some of them I have not played in years and not sure about their current state but i am sure that they only became better.
