Spotify has a bigger way more real scammer issue with their default playlists... For each of their discovery weekly, release radar, daily mixes there's a scammer album or playlist with the very same name stealing plays and royalties. L

Apparently font rendering is going to get bad on Linux too with gtk4. I believe at some point they decided to stop supporting subpixel rendering with the idea that everyone will have hidpi displays. Unfortunately the display industry is lag

I understand the bitterness and I believe many of us here can definitely relate. My comment was more about the general tendency to extrapolate from specific experiences to general considerations.

Yeah probably it's just different with Apple, hardware and software is just better designed and optimized. My previous MacBook pro lasted 10 years.

I believe the more you spend on a phone the more you're inclined to endure the performance degradation. With a cheap phone it's easier to let it go and buy a new one, so you always have a new, fast and updated device

Which phone are you buying that lasts more? After two years the battery life nose dives, flash memory becomes slower, software updates become scarce. And by that time I usually have a broken screen. Good thing I only spend 200€ every two ye

I've used the internal watchdog without any issue. I mean the one you enable from systemd with RuntimeWatchdogSec=10 (where 10 iirc is a number less than 14 which is the number of seconds where the timer overflows). Not really much to

Budget for big projects like these is not an easy concept. 14 years behind schedule means 14 more years developing the science and technology, 14 more years of research grants that probably funded project-specific but also tons of side rese

Not sure, they were very popular in Italy when I was young. No electric kettle, we used gas stove ones. Heating was either radiators (slow) or wooden fireplace (only heats nearby), so maybe that's the main reason for its popularity, in
