+1 here. It feels like an electrical pulse, shooting from my head to my body, but the sound is the same.

on: Why I started (and stopped) making games
Unity used to provide a UnityHub.AppImage (used for licensing and version management) that with enough duct tape worked on non-ubuntu distros. Now they maintain their apt repo to ship UnityHub and anything other than Ubuntu 20.04 is not viable for getting things done.
Unreal just provides the source code and you compile it yourself, and there are community solutions for different distros.

on: Dear JetBrains, Don't mess with your UI
I honestly like it. IMO IntelliJ UIs were unnecessarily clunky. Vertical text was weird, and hard to read for me on higher resolutions, along with really small icons that forced you to actually parse the list for what I need. If you’re on a small resolution and have a lot of tool windows on the left side, the upper left tool window text and lower left texts runs into each other. Bottom bar was inconsistent, the items on that bar constantly change. 2 bars of vertical text, and an endless bottom bar, it felt like they were trying to back my editor into a corner. After using it like that for years, I finally gave up, just disabled most UI components and tolerated suboptimal keyboard shortcuts for finding and using tool windows. This UI update for the first time feels like I’m not flanked by clutter in a Jetbrains IDE

While the right side power thing is still an actual bizarre issue, I've been running the exact same "B state" where the power is on the right side and usb-c hub and usb-c to DP cables are on the left since the beginning, and it nothing for me. So whether this helps or not really comes down to your luck in peripherals combination.

on: macOS Monterey
The Macbook Pro 16" thermal throttling problems with external monitors [1] finally seems to be fixed with Monterey by enabling low power mode. (At least with 16:9 60Hz monitors).
I've been dealing with `kernel_task` hitting 900% CPU usage and the entire window server running at 2 FPS when using external monitors since I got the mbp 16" a year ago. Good riddance.
