You may be interested in reading this post about the process of packaging Steam.

tl;dr: It's mostly an annoyance reserved for packagers to deal with. Dynamically linked executables can be patched in a fairly universal fashion to work without FHS, so that's the go-to approach. If the executable is statically linked, the package may have to ship a source patch instead. If the executable is statically linked & close-source, the packagers are forced to resort to simulating an FHS environment via chroot.

 

It appears that comments stopped federating to other instances again sometime yesterday morning (January 5th, before 8AM EST). I can verify that the issue is affecting outgoing comments to multiple different instances (incl. lemmy.ml & lemmy.world) and that it remains ongoing as of the time of writing (e.g.: compare this remote post vs. SDF's copy, my comment is missing). I'll do the honors and ping @[email protected] here and now so you guys don't have to.

In the meantime, since we're all marooned here anyway: how's everyone's weekend been going so far? Any exciting plans?

New video just dropped on the official channel. 10+ minutes of Brandon talking about the inspirations that led to the Mistborn series!

I thought I'd share one of my favorite newish parts of ServiceNow: the GlideQuery class! It's a modern replacement to the GlideRecord class for use in ServiceNow backend scripting based upon Functional Programming principles.

GlideQuery is IMO much easier to work with in many common use-cases, though many situations still where GlideRecord remains the superior choice. Nevertheless, I think you'll enjoy using GlideQuery if you spend any considerable amount of time scripting on the platform!

 

Hello Mr. Times, please cancel goodbye

 

Thanks for showing up! There's not much going on here yet, so why don't we all introduce ourselves? Y'know, network a bit...

I'm 26, which makes me extremely old and not at all out of place here. Seriously, I could die any minute now! Not for any particular reason -- just too old, you see...

I've got an anilist on the off-chance that anyone wants to check my weeblord credentials. I think I'll flaunt the established <2000s paradigm and say that my favorite vintage anime is Steins;Gate. A bona fide classic, IMO.
