Same systemd often hang at shutdown and I cannot be bothered to understand why. My biggest issue with systemd is the log system. It is so stupidly slow, that I don't think it is possible to make it that slow without purpose. It literal

Let's hope it will be close. MacBook has twice the battery capacity as a run of the mill thinkpad. So 6h of battery would be the default I expect. More than that, and I will be impressed. Note that I have been using Linux for 20y. And

I came to assume the battery only exists to act as an uninterruptible power supply as I travel to the next power outlet ;) It feels like over the past 10y Linux only went from 2h to 3h of battery life. While MacBook went from 3h to 13h.

Same experience here. I get 4k 120hz over HDMI with my puny AMD laptop embedded GPU without tearing on Wayland. Previous machine with Nvidia GPU (on Xorg) couldn't resume and had atrocious performances because of overheating.

I am going to argue that bytes/second is the unit. SI prefixes are for convenience. You could use mebibyte/kilosecond for what is worth.

The UI keeps bloating, lagging more and more. It can now take few seconds to load a few thousand line file for display. Ctrl-f search doesn't work anymore because it lazy loads the file as you scroll, with a very noticable lag at that.

And the experience of the OP is actually mild at that. I lived 2 blocks from Union Square, on Geary st, back in 2011/2012. I witnessed Sin City. Dead bodies, naked and drugged prostitute offering services, homeless woman blowing a home

They are all programs. But I personally use the word script to refer to small (in term of code) programs. That are very task specific, not necessarily robust to errors, with a lot of hard coded assumptions, and most often in some relatively

With a bit of luck they will be able to name the connector in inches, making it even more patriotic.

What could be causing your headache? OLED (and mini-LED is very similar) are just better on almost all account (looking at you gradiant banding). Color, perfect black, brightness, high refresh rate.

Summary: AVX-512 adds many instructions that can replace what used to take 3 less efficient instructions. This instruction set also double the number of available SIMD (single instruction multiple data) registers. Those instructions are ver

This is what I found to reduce code size the most for the 8bit AVR MCU: [profile.release] opt-level = "z" lto = true overflow-checks = false codegen-units = 1 debug = false Also invoking cargo with:

Wikipedia also says that water starts conducting at 1.23V, and the common Li-Ion nominal voltage is 3.7V. 3.7V - 1.23V == 2.47V. 2.47V / 0.2Ω ~= 30W (12.5A). You will be able the find your phone on the seabed from the bubble emanating

It's harder to form a tree with key value. I also tried the relational route. But it would always messup the cardinality (one person should have 0 or n friends, but a person has a single birth date).

Pidgin was great. Now I have all those different (web or not) applications, that never support all my devices. Most application steal a crazy amount of data, consumes bandwidth as if free on the way, while assuming they are alone and can co

Isn't lacquer technically a sort of plastic? I could find images for Indian Brass Container to learn what it is. But I didn't find anything conclusive for Korean steel.

With port knocking or a simple as having SSH on a non-standard port, the connection request stops before even opening the TCP connection. That's less load on the system, less logs, less writing to storage, etc. Less of what you don&#x2

It doesn't run a full OS. Merely the nodejs binary with all it's dependencies. You can think of Docker containers as a way to package an application dependencies, ending at the (Linux) kernel API/ABI.

async Rust functions are compiled down to a finite state machine. A stackless coroutine I think it can be called. I suspect that C#/.NET does something similar though I am just speculating here. The difference between async-std and tok

There was a few too many years when Google Chrome was much faster. Used less CPU, battery life was noticably better on laptops etc. I find this no longer the case, and I am now back on Firefox :)

The pull model, is similar to having some metrics to choose which backend to push to. I believe push/pull are the two faces of the same coin. You might physically initiate a connection one way or the other. You might in abstract push

The fact that the pattern matches. Here the type being matched is: enum Option<T> { None, Some(T) } let x = Some(42); let Some(y) = x else { panic!("None") };

Nobody code without a type system. The distinction is build time vs runtime type checking. At build time you catch bugs that would appear later at runtime. Which is more costly to fix later.
