In Greece you can optionally work while incarcerated, provided there is work to do for some of the prison's facilities, and each workday counts as two regarding your stay there.

Your reply is not very relevant to my comment though. Also I might be much more sensitive than you think and you are sad and unsurprised for nothing. EDIT: I' m sorry, I misunderstood you.

It works the same way. Nine times the clocks, three times smaller standard deviation for both the mean and the median of their readings. In a normal (and any symmetric) distribution these two are the same anyway, so their difference will te

Three hard resets yesterday because Chrome shat itself and Windows 11 (fresh unused installation) would not allow me to just kill it, and eventually froze itself too. Retarded and pathetic. Too bad I need to use this garbage from time to ti

I see there is some interesting stuff in the parent page as well, thanks :)

Yeah it is a subjective and configuration-dependent thing for sure.

Is there any subpixel text rendering implementation that avoids color fringing to such a degree I cannot see it, or not? It's certainly there on both Windows and Linux.

How do pixel boundaries relate to the fact that you cannot avoid color fringing with subpixel AA? You could shift your whole framebuffer (or maybe just a glyph, with possible caveats) by a subpixel or two and have GBR or BRG pixels, it does

Subpixel AA literally gets the colors wrong at the boundary, so calling grayscale AA a simplification is a bit too much IMO. Some people prefer subpixel AA and it might even be a matter of accessibility for others, so its existence is a goo

The fact that patents require time and money makes this even more pathetic and appalling.

I guess the effectiveness is related to an individual's overall online habits and interests and I would be quite surprised if it did "not work at all" at scale. Besides, if it did not work they would know by now... For exampl

Stable isotopes decay but at much slower rates. Even protons decay.

What bullshit are you referring to? Void sure seems like an interesting alternative, but I am happy with Arch atm so I have not tried it yet.

The set of qubits needs to be an isolated system while the quantum computation happens, so no. By taking the qubits apart you would only make this much harder, if not impossible.

You are saying a different thing now. Your previous comment touched a philosophical matter. Now it's about using, in a commercial product, OSS software people develop in their own time and that they might promote too much (I read this

I cannot be inside anyone's mind, but I know that one can have more than one equally strong motives when doing something.

The extension is agnostic with respect to the actual width of the chip's registers, and you also won't have to separately account for the "last iteration" where you have not enough elements to fill a register, or at leas

The two supported FPGA families are a blessing for this kind of project, since they have hardware floating-point units. Unfortunately they are quite expensive, like the Xilinx ones with this feature...

This is certainly sensible. My point was that IMHO it is unfortunate that it is JavaScript that has risen to be this single language.

But it somehow reached the "everywhere" status first...

Yeah, it is GTK but not pure GTK! It uses X11 drawing calls for some elements so it needs XWayland on Wayland. Pure GTK might be coming with Emacs 28 by the way.

Fair enough!
