If using Gnome, only use integer scaling. 100%, 200%, 400%. KDE will have working fractional scaling for the DE and apps using QT and there you can adjust a slider to a % you like.

Linux's desktop experience also lacks polish in a lot of areas. It's not a talent or expertise issue, it just comes down to lack of resources. You can do a lot of polishing if you say here's 50 million dollars and a staff of

Apple should embrace this if the project is in need of reference materials. Apple is a hardware company primarily, so if someone buys their hardware because it will be compatible with an OS they may like more, that's still a sale for A

Once they're public, everything is going to change. At that point it becomes "building value for the shareholder" and "minimizing risk for the shareholder". Except in this case, users are the product, and if you rui

What is the point of using a tool that comes with management and/or coder bias to make sure you never ask or receive anything that might offend someone somewhere? I'm asking the question, I don't care if Jar Jar Binks would b

The reason time travel movies don't make sense, while absolutely lots of fun to watch, is because the Sun is travelling through space. If you were to hypothetically build a time machine and set it for any given year, you would material

To make life easier, just don't use anything of theirs from after 1928. However, anything released in 1928 and earlier is fair game. That includes gloves (movie poster, Willie title card etc. from 1928 has gloves), colours, etc. Link t

While I am definitely sympathetic to Taylor Swift, from an objective perspective, this is an example of why it's nice that other regulatory domains like Russia exist that do not have to comply with directives from American regulators.

The YouTube guy Linus Sebastian has a net worth of 85 million apparently. So he could do it as a hobby if he wanted to.

This is why I don't like publicly-traded companies much. It's always just about short term gain and long term losses. Why would you give up research and development, just so some executives can buy themselves another yacht?

Changing the dither pattern every frame subjectively increases noise so I have change dither pattern every frame off for videos. I also turn off colored noise as well, because even though having colored noise on lowers luma noise, it does i

No, it's like heroin.. after a certain point/age you burn out and are not addicted anymore. You can do this with porn too. But like heroin, it isn't consequence free.

I use the flatpak version of Firefox because my Linux machine is an immutable OS. Hardware video decode is working for FF. Not working for Chrome though, sadly.

I just really liked the old skeuomorphic UI which dripped gorgeousness and didn't want to switch to a bland flat white interface.

Are you talking about the iOS 6 to 7 transition where the security certificates expired and Apple wouldn't issue a new one and said you needed to switch to iOS 7 if you wanted Facetime to work again? That was my last iOS device.

Part of the original impetus is because the nice-looking classical logos, etc. were too high-resolution for low-definition display devices. Then it became a game of pointy-headed middle-managers having meetings in the boardroom and micro-ma

I use Firefox, but I'll point out that MS Edge has its own extension store that isn't run by Google. Google can make things as slow as they like in their store and it won't affect Microsoft unless Microsoft goes along with it

It was faster than Leopard but still Leopard. As an end-user who ran Tiger and Leopard back in the day (and System 6 and 7 before that), I didn't feel that either were bad or slow. Both were good releases that I was happy to use. Leopa

Fantastic. Now we're going to see more of those toxic aerosol air freshener machines everywhere. They use petroleum solvents as a carrier and sensitize people toward becoming allergic. Those fan-propelled oil droplets of air wick are a
