my wife is using win11 and I was checking it out from time to time. I didn't notice the taskbar is revertible to the old style, since when is that available and is that builtin or achievable with 3rd party software? most of my annoyanc

wow, that was brave, were you disconnected with that PC from the internet and so had no concerns, or just behind a good firewall and you browsed the internet sensibly?

I wonder what route existing Windows power users should take after Windows 10 support ends next year.. I don't care about these features at all, I just need a Windows OS, bare, where I can install the tools I need, not what Microsoft t

is there a printed edition planned or does it exist maybe already?

hell no. if they sold a title to you, that you own now, they must provide a way for the title to be playable as-is, without shoveling a ton of ads down our throats. if the title is single player, it must be playable offline, if the title is

I'm afraid the hype is still rising very much, and a very large percentage of AI products are snakeoil, or barely functional PoCs, that are hyped up for a quick cash grab.

by integricho 2y ago
Or those could be precisely the reasons that would kill it for good. Putting AI tech in every product is not a good idea, just riding the hypetrain.

sadly it did, the 3.1 version was the last one that I remember as still not bloated, 4.x was already bad. But up until that, 1.x, 2.x, ..., they were great.

mv2player was a really good option for a period of time, it's a shame it just disappeared, not even it's source code can be found.

ACDSee 2.4 and 3.1 were similarly legendary and fast in both startup time and overall performance of image loading.

Disappointed, I was expecting a study about the virtual animals from Horizon Zero Dawn.

I've come to despise how tightly integrated the C++ standard library is now with the c++ language itself, it is clearly evolving in a direction to make the two inseparable, but it is also making it less desireable. One cannot even comp

SublimeText, Notepad++, CudaText and LiteXL have acceptable performance, memory footprint and responsiveness for my taste (but this is certainly not a benchmark, just another subjective viewpoint :) )
106.
by integricho 3y ago
I think it's very subjective what is considered performant. I for one don't think about VSCode as a performant app, for me it is a resource hog, not at all that responsive app, there's always a slight delay / lag in inpu

I might be a bit biased here, but I don't consider that native, nor any of the electron-like wrappers around such creations. The only true native app e.g. for windows is an EXE, compiled from any of the languages that are capable of pr

Yes, but mostly internal corporate emails, stretching back decades, with most of the content about how to violate user privacy using various sneaky schemes. I wonder what kind of A.I. would result from training on such content.

by integricho 3y ago
sure, that's entirely possible, and even that all the recently released information is just that. but again, until this is proven, it's unfair to dismiss everything with such an explanation. it deserves a thorough investigation an

Yes, cognitive dissonance might be the correct description of this, thanks! still, the definition of it holds for this case. I also don't want to rely on speculation / jumping to conclusions, but just the same, don't want it

There is a difference between healthy skepticism and blind, fanatic skepticism. The latter is not far from the dark ages when the church was burning people for claiming the earth is not flat or not the center of the universe, only in a more

by integricho 3y ago
I think skepticism can go to the same kinds of extremes as believing. While a significant percentage of reports is surely a mixture of crackpots / people with unknown agendas, I find it hard to discard just about everything on one of t

I don't agree with this, not by a long shot, this kind of mindset is why we have such a cancerous proliferation of overbloated and slow software today and it's just getting worse and worse every day.

Not to criticise the application, but how realistic is that such an application weighs ~70MB?

I'd argue that running pip or any package installation with sudo is the devs fault.

This looks like a step in the right direction, I haven't tried them though, must check them out, I hope they don't bring just the looks, but the performance and latency characteristics of those old systems as well!

Yes, that's exactly the feel I'd like to have with a modern operating system also!

So is there a light, Windows 9x-like (so really really fast and responsive) shell for Windows 10? I cannot believe how unresponsive Windows 10 is, the menus, windows, all opening with so huge delays, it's a disgrace.
