I recently visited a museum and i really loved it. Getting up close to an image and seeing none of the fuzziness, no AI “shimmer” on photos and every stroke made sense (as in you could see that an arm moved a brush and you could see the path it took etc.). Hands made sense. And while tryptichons were not exactly precise when it comes to the anatomy of humans, no humans had anything smeared etc.

It was the best of times, it was the BLURST OF TIMES! Stupid monkey!

Microsoft still makes money off the OEM licenses AFAIK. The Linux community had a whole day about this back in the 90s.

What if a new OS comes with, say, a GPU driver that is not compatible anymore? Is there not even an override for this possible? I have a PC with the GTX 970 which in computer terms is basically just after the meteorite crash ending the jurassic era. And i have been considering to use Bazzite OS for this machine.

Remember: Just tell tar to Xtract Z File.

I prefer the 32 bit signed integer underflow in my favor.

There is a single aspect in which the Switch remains superior: Simplicity. Sure, you could take the time once to set up Yuzu and your Switch games and be rewarded with superior performance.

But the technically less experienced user might be put off by the fact that you can‘t just plonk in the game and play it. That‘s however not exclusive to the Switch.

I tried downloading Switch games from uuuuh… rather bespoke sites and they had a rather uuuuh… curious idea of what ads you could throw into the users face. Vivaldi‘s integrated adblocker simply couldn‘t handle those sites. That discouraged me from downloading games for now. Luckily MIG-Dumper is there to save the day and allow me to back up my games to later play them in Yuzu.

Isn‘t the battery simply mounted with sticky tape and thanks to the case being screwed in still fessibly replaceable by the user?

Apple cites security concerns for killing PWAs in europe. I mean they could‘ve made changes to the system to allow running PWAs in other browser engines by offering an API in which other applications could hook themselves into, akin to how Android did it with the web activity that is used by other apps.

But then that would mean conceding to the EU and we can‘t have that, can we?

Actually yes. PokeMMO. I wonder whether Steam tracks this because PokeMMO is not available on Steam though.

Alternatively we got Temtem on Steam from which i heard that it‘s a good game.

How can you surf this site? I opened this in Vivaldi on my iPhone (with integrated adblock enabled) and it immediately greeted me with untrustworthy popups?

EDIT: This comment should‘ve gone under another users comment.

Open Source doesn’t mean automatically that applications look ugly. It only means that they look ugly on non-Linux systems. Like VLC Player, Open Office, etc.

Linux systems are easy to install. The real challenge is to diagnose an issue. What caused the crash of GTA V? The new Mesa drivers? The new Gamescope update? Some update in the game that breaks in conjunction with KDE running in Wayland? But you launched the game in xwayland, how could Wayland still cause trouble? Or is it the latest FEX update you installed because you saw a Youtuber playing Elden Ring on their iPhone 14 Pro with HoloISO and you figured that the 15 Pro should handle the game perfectly?

How did Microsoft not crush this project already?

1. People have enough RAM.
2. Developers see people getting more RAM.
3. Developers allow their software to use more RAM (either by doing more cool stuff or optimizing less stuff).
4. People have little RAM.
5. People buy more RAM.
6. goto 1;

This also applies to CPU and GPU.

I am working on an application using DevExpress XAF. It allows you to build a big enterprise application relatively quick by doing a lot of the dirty work you would otherwise do yourself for CRUD stuff. A lot of the application can be modified through mere clicks without touching a single line of code.

It is cool but kinda bloaty. When you simply launch an XAF application, it uses 300 megabytes of RAM. And that’s before you even loaded a single byte of business data. You have just reached the login screen.

At least i felt it was “kinda bloaty” until i first booted Void Linux on my gaming PC at home and took a look at htop. IT’S ONLY 400 MEGABYTES AND IT’S READY TO USE! MAYBE ADD 200 MEGABYTES FOR KDE!

ALL THIS BLOATING CANNOT CONTINUE! WE HAVE TO TAKE ACTION IMMEDIATELY OR WE WILL BE FOREVER DOOMED TO UPGRADE OUR RAM LEST WE DON’T WANT EVEN A FUNCTIONING TEXT EDITOR!

Kind of. First you have to buy a Texteditor token and then the license says you’re permitted to open the IPFS link in order to use Texteditor.

I’ve been wondering which crypto product i should work on. What do you think is the most promising project?

KateKash, Nanocoins, VimBucks, NotePetz++ (i heard cryptobros love ERC-20 based lifeforms), M$ WorDillars
