Found a new one for you just this morning. My laptop was plugged into an external monitor and I walked away for a bit. I came back a couple hours later, closed the lid, unplugged the HDMI and power and carried it upstairs just like I would

Try using a new RTX GPU or a Wifi 6E network to it's fullest, or two screens with different scaling with Linux. You will not have a nice experience.

I use PopOS on a newer Legion 5i. Randomly the BT stopped working after a kernel update last year. Sound and wifi will sometimes not work after resuming from sleep even now. This is my average desktop Linux life experience. Some will trot o

4,999 is also just at the upper limit most mid tier managers are allowed to spend without getting an approval process involved.

My Lenovo Legion laptop gets an hour and a half more battery life on PopOS than Windows 11 for casual uses (gaming is about the same but I don't do that on battery). No tweaking or arcane config needed, this is just a plain, regular ou

Asking someone questions about the basis of their opinions without educating them in the process isn't lying to them. In this case, it discovers that their opinions are not fact-based, despite proclaiming to be so.

You're focused on the security of your own server, but an insecure or compromised front end can be used to leverage your site's utility or popularity to attack your end users or be used against other sites. Just read up on XSS. Yo

IME Laravel as a framework, ecosystem and community is wide as an ocean and deep as a puddle. Everything about it is a weak copy of something that's done better elsewhere.

The propagation/infection of async handling is just indicitive of the nature of the problem. Try writing async code in any other language and you see similar patterns emerge.

Wasn't that just an issue with the final 16" Intel MBP? I don't think any M1/M2 Macs have had that problem.

Not to diminish the work put into making this workflow easier to use, but you can completely replicate this workflow (and then some) with out of the box macOS tooling by creating an "Open <xyz.app>" script in Shortcuts, movi

Why does this flame bait have to get squeezed in everywhere?

Hell, just give access to the Hypervisor framework now that M1/M2 chips natively support virtualization. I would gladly use a macOS or Linux VM on an iPad if it didn't require constant workarounds. UTM is ready it just needs the A

I don't see the benefit of this strategy TBH. At best this tactic just drags out how long you can claim an employment dates with an employer but delays any future unemployment claim you could make until once fired and drags down everyo

As a former Flash/Air/Flex dev way back in the day I agree, AS3 was a great language that JavaScript still hasn't fully caught up with in some ways but it was only really viable to author ActionScript within Adobe's endo

This does make the assumption of aliens having similar lifespans. A life form that might live 500 or 10k years would view the personal cost of those distances much differently than humans, who view it as suicide. It also assumes similar mor

Lots of devs are willing to spend on tools but end up in workplaces where they're not allowed to install them, tools don't offer compatible licensing for that scenario, or where the workplace won't purchase a license for them

I mean, using a search engine to figure out what a CCIE was took about 10 seconds. Searching "engineer pe" and finding a contextually relevant answer wasn't any harder. Not every comment, article or book must devolve to serve

But most of them do have to pass the FE to work under the title of engineer. Simply graduating isn’t usually enough.

I'm genuinely curious what you need Docker and x86 together for. Most Docker use cases tend to be server related and most hiccups running those on ARM have been solved by now (partly due to pushes for AWS Graviton cost savings and perf
