but then, anyone with a recent(ish) Macbook is up-to-date for web-browsing and playing video (on the internet). Any post-Lynnfield Desktop-Process is quite a bit faster (starting at 3GHz) and since Haswell, even the video-playing is no prob

I went there, expecting some information how DOSBox was hacked to emulate some old-fashioned CRT-visuals and output 4K-content. Got instructions on how to convert AVI to another format with ffmpeg. Great!

The P.S. is unnecessarily personal, I won't edit it but hereby apologize for the harsh tone. Other than that I suppose this is personal, since this seems to be the personal pet project of the author (and he constantly assumes a "w

Oh yeah I get that you are not comparing with anything else, because then your criticism wouldn't be on matrix but on how about 99% of the internet today work _by design_. With any protocol, where you are expecting any reliable, low-la

from wikipedia > Bitmessage was conceived by software developer Jonathan Warren, who based its design on the decentralized digital currency, bitcoin. So, looks like "blockchain"? Anyone else? From the FAQ: https://bi

And while your comments are valid, a large part of your comments are actual FUD, because every other chat application out there behaves the same (and for a large portion of the user base, matrix probably is just yet another chat app...)?!?

so, you are saying you are going to change the world by imitating Google? Good luck with that. Besides the opaque sign-up scheme and a total disregard for standards (your calendar/contacts "sync" integrates with which clients

well, the basic gold standard for note taking are GUI apps like evernote and onenote (their GUI works well). I guess upvoters are the people on HN using plain-text, expecting a real nice GUI for their plain-text-markup-files, only to find y

a) Joplin is free and seems to do the exact same thing? (+actual working todo-lists) b) Having md-notes and a dual view seems redundant... In general I either work with the notes, then the "nice view" helps nothing and on the rare

so, rewrite v3 (currently there's no such thing as standard's support. it's all a thin wrapper around S3.)

best comparison would be Nextcloud.

Not sure what kind of money you got, but for me S3-storage costs about 0.6USD/30GB*month. Multiply this by 100 and you got a bill of 60USD/month - which is not much if you are a cash-bloated startup but not really sustainable for

eeeh, I'd never miss Google, except for the search... 1/10 for the effort BTW: what about Nextcloud. Seems to have exactly the same featureset and you don't need to sign up to some fishy service

nice to see that Apple still can build a real (UNIX) workstation. just about the right combination of power, standard but exotic IO, price and design (though not my favourite)

Why? It seems like some kind of mini-DIN and this is pretty common on industrial T&M equipment around here (think CANbus et al)

It only says "preorder now" or do I miss something? And given the price point of 300USD (with taxes and shipping) you are well in the terrain of x86-Atoms, heck you might even get a good deal on a Xeon-D...

So maybe the concept of a medium or small content creator isn't profitable in our current pop-capitalistic system; I guess you are suggesting changing this system, because at the moment this process repeats, what has happened to 1000s

that's a fine line between liberal free speech (where you have to stick to facts and are hold accountable by the society if you actively are undermining its foundations) and libertarian free spech (where there is no society)

or maybe the spirit of a free and open society, where everyone is subject to objective evaluation and performance of his/her own work instead of opaque decisions in HR?

second that. also for the scientific community at large, big portions of "not-so-happy"-matplotlib-users are just using whatever they/their admin installed sometime ago, which probably is outdated and does not include a bunch

So, what's your current fuel output per squaremeter of membrane? EDIT: read the Bloomberg-report and this reminds me a little bit of the cold-fusion buzz and the occasional kid doing yellow cake in his/her basement. But hey, today

I have to say I was very pleased that the Debian-ESR package a) disables telemetry in the build and b) ESR still allows you to override the extension signing for now...

just that some cars and their usage patterns won't matter for the kind of energy consumption required by residential heating, industrial processes and shipping. Those are the real things, where we need to setup logistics and economics

We could also have had diesel cars with about 20-40% of emissions of the the current "fleet" for about two decades. But apparently nobody cares and now, instead of thinking about all the other stuff we need to replace fossils (hea
