Well, yes, there's the display latency issue, but I think that given the state of some programs, the display lag is really way, way down the list of problems.

Well, yes, there's the display latency issue, but I think that given the state of some programs, the display lag is really way, way down the list of problems. I have a 60 Hz display, and an IPS one at that, which doesn't even try to pretend it's fast. Still, my terminal window doesn't lag behind when I type. Teams does, every time. > Java for GUI apps certainly hasn’t done much to show that it’s a better solution. Meh, I use a Jetbrains IDE almost everyday, sometimes even with Rust and pretty much everything turned on. Even on my almost eight-year-old MBP input never, ever lags like Teams does on a 6 core i7 with a "gaming" GPU. It's not as smooth as a Linux terminal, but it's never irritating. > It’s funny but sad how these days, apt upgrade runs so fast, and compiling kernel modules happens extremely quickly, but it takes 10x as long as it did 20 years ago to schedule a calendar appointment with someone because GCal in a browser is so slow. Slack compared to curses-based IRC clients…woof. Exactly. And what drives me up a wall is seeing people being resigned. Some act like they don't even notice this. I guess we may moan until we're blue in the face on HN &c, but if "regular people" don't care, no one's going to do anything about this.
