Last.fm is still around. Some Navidrome clients work with it, and it can point you to artists you might like.

I've heard that joke from Linux users when it comes to anti-cheat.
Which OS is better for gaming? Windows or Linux?
A: Linux, because you can't play League of Legends

It's not that they have anything against them, it's giving their customers who don't want to see them the choice not to.

A bit of NFT madness to go with the Blockchain stuff too.

Did you read the documentation I linked? There's also high/medium/low settings that use XDG signals to determine if focus should change.

What? You can set it to let apps steal the focus you want. I can set it to not allow any apps to steal focus. How are we not both satisfied?

> How would that global app ban help? You do want the application to steal focus when necessary
Maybe you do. I don't. With this setting we can both be hapopy.

Maybe it's a hazy memory, but from 2007-2011 my main computer was a MacBook Pro. I swear in that era, when an app wanted attention it would bounce in the dock endlessly.
That was annoying, but it let you finish doing what you were doing until you were ready to switch focus.

> I opened Slack on macOS, the icon kept bouncing in the dock for a few seconds. I got impatient, switched to Ghostty, and started typing. Just then, the Slack window appeared, stole focus from Ghostty and the git pull command was sent to the group chat.
One of my absolute favourite features on KDE Plasma with Wayland is the global setting to control what can steal focus. It works wonderfully, and I always miss it when I have to use my work mac or windows computers.

You think that hanging out playing video games with friends lacks an appeal for young people?
Are you for real?

> The simpler explanation here is that board games are still a niche hobby
The article says "games", which I took to be more likely to be video games. These are teenagers after all. And if they're safe and goofing around gaming in a youth club, they're less likely to be doing antisocial behaviour on the street.

I've thought this for a while, and I summarise it as:
If you want me to take time to read it, you should take the time to write it.

It isn't a meaningless word, and like my sibling poster I do wonder if that sentence is astroturfed by the junk food corpos.
The [NOVA classification](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nova_classification) has definitions for various levels of food processing.

Yeah there's some weirdness too, it's heavily optimised for the Deck, low rez textures, low shadow quality etc.
So if you force it to run on your Linux desktop you don't get an experience commensurate with your hardware.

And now I'm older with a well paying job I find myself having to do the opposite calculation.
Things like, "Actually I will get an uber instead of the bus, so I can spend more time at the party."
