It’s an ancient symbol used in a number of religions with varied meanings. In uni-code it follows the crystal ball emoji 🔮 so I think it was likely just included as a common spiritual symbol many people might want to use.

Sometimes just going for a 15 minute walk can help a bunch. Thinking about something you want to do without digital distractions can make it a lot easier to get into when you get back.
Nothing wrong with preferring multiplayer games. If your problem is that there are single player games that you really want to enjoy but can’t concentrate on for very long then perhaps you should look into attention deficit treatments.
Audacious is my favorite music player and it still supports the old winamp skins for those feeling nostalgic. It does tagging fine, not sure if there is a lyrics plugin but it does support tons of codecs and net radio streaming.

4·3 months agoI found this completely maddening when I had a folder full of random videos with various codecs. I had a video player installed that could handle all of them but half of them would open in one video player, a few in another and the rest tried to open in a web browser and failed.

mhm.
While I don’t think his father owes him a house I also don’t think it’s at all rude to ask if he’d be willing to help him get one.

Gaming@lemmy.ml•I Made The Same Game in Unity and Godot, Which Engine is Better? by Thomas Grové on May 17, 2026 [Video, 15:59 mins]
3·4 months agoI think the last hurdle for Godot is going to be the marketplace. Sure you can do anything you need to do but do you always have the time to? Hard for a lot of devs to give up access to such a large base of drop-in solutions. I think Godot will get there eventually though given its trajectory.
What that needs is a smoke animation that starts as soon as your core temps get too high.

2·6 months agoI could see it working as a themed area inside a larger tourist theme park with rides and things. If most of the structure is fake just to get the look right on the surface it might not be too pricey to setup and could generate revenue just on admittance fees.
Debian is great, though I do wish they’d make it easier for new users to find their unofficial live image/installers since booting the desktop of your choice with no hassle is great:

1·9 months agoThere have been some efforts to mitigate this by adding warnings where appropriate. But that doesn’t stop certain people from ignoring those warnings and typing “Yes, do as I say!” and bricking their install anyway.
Best: Tractor engine idling. It’s a nice consistent low rumble that you can feel in the ground even when it’s not that loud. Like being rocked to sleep.
Worst: Somebody building a deck or house nearby. Just when you think the random hammers and nail-guns might be over the racket starts up again. Impossible to sleep through.
