That is when hardware light rendering still existed. We haven't used that in about 15 years.

Older ones stop working at around 32F. Modern ones meant for colder climates start losing efficiency at 0F. I live in Maine, we rarely get nights that are subzero, my heat pump works fine except for those 3 or 4 nights out of the year. The

Both what you quote and what you said are both asinine: I've met a lot of female FOSS developers, several of them have worked their ways into management positions at major companies. The era of pretending FOSS is a sausage party is ove

AMD internally refers to the finished product as the SoC, and the chipset (no longer a northbridge, the NB is on die) as a socket extender (a term also used by most SoC vendors) in internal documentation. Also, arguably, the IO Die is the S

AFIACT, it's a "no but yes" sort of answer. Linux games are free to build binaries for any architecture they wish, but any game relying on Proton because it's a Windows binary will require x86. Good news is, any of us in

I refuse to own an oven that is internet connected. If my oven has enough of a computer to have a firmware that can be updated remotely, it is too dangerous to own.

Except with Google, Google keeps committing the sins, and when even informed that they are doing it, executives at Google just respond "working as intended, WONTFIX".

I'm sorry, but I took one look at the page, and tried to scroll (on a desktop mind you, other people are complaining about mobile, which I can easily imagine as being 10x worse), and I closed the page. This is nonsense. I'm aware

Docker images used to be entirely Debian-based but have slowly become almost entirely Alpine based. A lot of Debian users have become Alpine users, and I've been mulling over if I should join as well (since I've used Debian for 20

I see no reason why the Russian people won't agree, they almost universally despise Putin, especially after just sending a bunch of kids to die on the front lines with no supplies or plan. The only people who worship Putin are a vocal,

Unfortunately, that was your mistake. Never buy anything Samsung branded. No phones, no consumer SSDs, no TVs, no monitors, no laptops, no phones and tablets, no fridges and wash machines and driers. Nothing . The entire brand is toxic.

Technically, nothing. If you ended up with a 100% pro-Ukranian Russian government, they could immediately cease fire, and begin talks with the entire world on resuming commerce. They may have to invent a new currency, but this would be what

If there is a war anywhere, it effects everyone, globally. I don't get why this is such a hard concept for people to understand.

Thats a rather ignorant statement, as if Americans somehow universally lack empathy.

I am of the generation that saw people being sent overseas just to die because, as many put it, "Bush lied". The world is an international community, we sink or swim together. A tragedy in a faraway country is no different than on

Mostly self control. It only takes me about 15 minutes to go through all the actual news sources I follow. HN doesn't come out of the 15 minute budget, since its all technical focused not-exactly-news; it has its own budget of sorts.

I am not in Europe, but American, and this war does affect me, since we are the largest member of NATO, but also the first target of Russian aggression in this weird neo-Soviet era if Russia decides to deploy nukes (a low, but non-zero, cha

This will only lead to Windows being banned at major corporations as per internal policy requirements. Good news, however, this could finally be the year of the Linux desktop.

I understand what you mean, as I too have said these things. Linear RGB in the sRGB/Rec 709 color space is the correct interpretation. Monitors that are not sRGB/Rec 709 primaries with a Rec 1886 gamma ramp (as opposed to the exac

As a reminder: don't buy Dell, they have a history of ignoring issues and refusing to fix. The US needs to adopt EU-style consumer laws.

AA is bad if you do not have a concept of how gamma works. If you have a program[1] that does not understand the difference between sRGB and Linear RGB, the color fringing is extremely nasty, especially on light-on-dark situations. If they
