Guidelines:
What to Submit
On-Topic: Anything that good slackers would find interesting. That includes more than /g/ memes and slacking off. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual laziness.
Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably lame.
Help keep this hole healthy by keeping drama and non-drama balanced. If you see too much drama, post something that isn't dramatic. If there isn't enough drama and this hole has become too boring, POST DRAMA!
In Submissions
Please do things to make titles stand out, like using uppercase or exclamation points, or saying how great an article is. It should be explicit in submitting something that you think it's important.
Please don't submit the original source. If the article is behind a paywall, just post the text. If a video is behind a paywall, post a magnet link. Fuck journos.
Please don't ruin the hole with chudposts. It isn't funny and doesn't belong here. THEY WILL BE MOVED TO /H/CHUDRAMA
If the title includes the name of the site, please leave that in, because our users are too stupid to know the difference between a url and a search query.
If you submit a video or pdf, please don't warn us by appending [video] or [pdf] to the title. That would be r-slurred. We're not using text-based browsers. We know what videos and pdfs are.
Make sure the title contains a gratuitous number or number + adjective. Good clickbait titles are like "Top 10 Ways to do X" or "Don't do these 4 things if you want X"
Otherwise editorialize. Please don't use the original title, unless it is gay or r-slurred, or you're shits all fucked up.
If you're going to post old news (at least 1 year old), please flair it so we can mock you for living under a rock, or don't and we'll mock you anyway.
Please don't post on SN to ask or tell us something. Send it to [email protected] instead.
If your post doesn't get enough traction, try to delete and repost it.
Please don't use SN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff occasionally, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity. If you want to astroturf or advertise, post on news.ycombinator.com instead.
Please solicit upvotes, comments, and submissions. Users are stupid and need to reminded to vote and interact. Thanks for the gold, kind stranger, upvotes to the left.
In Comments
Be snarky. Don't be kind. Have fun banter; don't be a dork. Please don't use big words like "fulminate". Please sneed at the rest of the community.
Comments should get more enlightened and centrist, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.
If disagreeing, please reply to the argument and call them names. "1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be improved to "1 + 1 is 3, not 2, mathfaggot"
Please respond to the weakest plausible strawman of what someone says, not a stronger one that's harder to make fun of. Assume that they are bad faith actors.
Eschew jailbait. Paedophiles will be thrown in a wood chipper, as pertained by sitewide rules.
Please post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. All press is good press.
Please use Slacker News for political or ideological battle. It tramples weak ideologies.
Please comment on whether someone read an article. If you don't read the article, you are a cute twink.
Please pick the most provocative thing in an article or post to complain about in the thread. Don't nitpick stupid crap.
Please don't be an unfunny chud. Nobody cares about your opinion of X Unrelated Topic in Y Unrelated Thread. If you're the type of loser that belongs on /h/chudrama, we may exile you.
Sockpuppet accounts are encouraged, but please don't farm dramakarma.
Please use uppercase for emphasis.
Please post deranged conspiracy theories about astroturfing, shilling, bots, brigading, foreign agents and the like. It degrades discussion and is usually mistaken. If you're worried about abuse, email [email protected] and dang will add you to their spam list.
Please don't complain that a submission is inappropriate. If a story is spam or off-topic, report it and our moderators will probably do nothing about it. Feed egregious comments by replying instead of flagging them like a pussy. Remember: If you flag, you're a cute twink.
Please don't complain about tangential annoyances—things like article or website formats, name collisions, or back-button breakage. That's too boring, even for HN users.
Please seethe about how your posts don't get enough upvotes.
Please don't post comments saying that rdrama is turning into ruqqus. It's a nazi dogwhistle, as old as the hills.
Miscellaneous:
We reserve the right to exile you for whatever reason we want, even for no reason at all! We also reserve the right to change the guidelines at any time, so be sure to real them at least once a month. We also reserve the right to ignore enforcement of the guidelines at the discretion of the janitorial staff. Be funny, or at least compelling, and pretty much anything legal is welcome provided it's on-topic, and even then.

Shiren the Wanderer 6 comes out next year (same dev team or at least as much as you get in an industry with the turnover of game dev). But I'd imagine with the continued success of danganronpa ports and ports of Uchikoshi writing the same game over and over for the last 20 years that it just wasn't in spike's best interest to keep doing licensed games.

Fdroid is nice for niche apps I like. Also what emulator is locked behind a patreon? Use lemuroid for 99% emulated mobile games, PPSSPP for PSP (which is
on mobile) and you're good.
Lemuroid supports PSP through to 3DS but I find its interface is worse compared to PPSSPP, which is kino with easy save states and fast forwards.

My dear friend, you are missing out on the true joys of life by playing video games all the time. The Bible tells us to be good stewards of our time and to not let our minds be corrupted by the things we see and do. "Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things." Philippians 4:8. You should be using your time to meditate on things that are true, noble, just, pure, lovely, and of good report. Video games are none of those things. instead, focus on things that will bring you closer to God and will help you grow in your faith. "And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him." Colossians 3:17.

"Me off to play pong."
What a sad way to live! Life is so much more than just playing pong. We were created to live for so much more than just games and entertainment. God has so much more in store for us than just playing pong.
Ephesians 2:10 says, "For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."
God has created us for good works, not for playing pong. We are to use our God-given talents and skills to bless others and make a difference in the world.
So, don't waste your life playing pong. Use your life for something more meaningful. Do something that will make a difference in the world. Live for something more than just entertainment. Live for God and His glory!

I think it's just containerised but I'm quite sure it's not using docker since the specs on most chromebooks aren't the best so docker would kinda be wasting resources

I used the debian shell stuff on my chromebook and I'm pretty sure it's not a container since I can use it to run gui programs and shit. I think it's similar to however windows linux works

yea prolly like WSL but WSL feels sluggish for some reason
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
because WSL is a heck of a lot "fatter" than something like Docker, which is extremely thin/light.
Keep in mind your chromebook is already running a Linux kernel so it's not exactly a big lift to provide a shell.
Anyways WSL is actually great and if it was sluggish you were either using a very old version or you're running on a toaster.

Are containers technically incapable from running GUI programs? The linux on android programs run via proot and have no problem launching their own X-servers. I don't see why containers should be that different (but I have no clue how docker works)
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
You can, this guy
shows how. I'm guessing it has to be for that entire container though, not just individual programs.IDk how ChromeOS does it, maybe the Debian container asks ChromeOS to run it.
There's also a way by binding docker to a port and using a browser, but that works for cmd shit too.

I've always thought it was installing the Debian shell into Chrome and it was another way of accessing, but I was wrong
. Chiobou (p-dophile child male feminist whose been killed by Lord Jinx 1000 times) confirmed that it is a container.

Not sure if ChromeOS uses X or Wayland or something else but they probably just expose the X server or equivalent to the container. They definitely don't need to run their own X server for that.

Yes. They can run their own X servers but then they'd need a display - either you'd need to map the display device into the container, or have some weird setup where there's a virtual display.
In reality most times they probably just expose a port to the host's X server and the GUI containerized app uses that to display itself. That way it seamlessly fits into the host GUI, as just another window.
