    well, i don’t know the last state you know, but they added a floating search bar, which is pretty, but not beneficial beyond that i think. they added a default shortcut for copying the current webaddress which i sorely miss on mullvad. besides i dont think they added any major features i would’ve noticed, but it feels like a very stable experience atm, both on linux and macos.

    i would like to move from zen to firefox, but as of right now i’m somewhat unhappy with the vertical tabs in firefox. i’ll keep an eye on them though and make the switch once they got some more features (like only appearing when mousing to the left edge of the window and staying entirely hidden otherwise)






  • i think that with sone shenanigans you might be able to keep your game installations, but you would need two separate harddrives in your system and some tinkering which i doubt will be easy when it’s your first time touching linux. i have done such thing, but only among different linux installs, and with some linux sysadmin experience. if you got the drives and enjoy the tinkering, id recommend you do that, cuz worst case scenario is you gotta reinstall them which you’d have to do anyways if you didn’t try…

    here is how id do it:

    • have a harddrive with the steam library and whatever else you want to keep on it.
    • install linux on a second harddrive within the same system.
    • mount the games harddrive from within linux.
    • go into steam settings and add that extra harddrives steam library.

    i think that all but the last step are pretty certain to work. the last one may cause you some trouble. note that it’ll probably only work with steam games.

    regarding the legality of breaking the sound barrier:

    if i remember correctly there’s is an indirect general speedlimit, because any vehicle moving below a certain height is not allowed to go beyond 400 something kph. now this is intended for planes and helicopters and such, but afaik also applies to cars. therefore breaking the sound barrier, sadly, would be illegal. besides, i think breaking the sound barrier is limited to certain zones anyways.

    i’m not trying to nitpick on the joke, but rather give supplementary information that may be interesting.

    with how the german community is radically translating everything english directly into german, i too tend to need some time figuring out what the heck they mean. lemmy is translated as „let me“ but in one word, same for meme being translated as „me me“. so, oftentimes, i need to translate half the words of a sentence directly into english without taking context into consideration, then try to put them together and reread, if that makes any sense…
