Hmm, screencasting is finally working properly for me now. It was a loooong road...

Aint that the truth. D-Bus isnt that terribly shit either, we just need to solve this SecretManager issue...

by javier2 10mo ago
Perhaps the SecretManager deserves some extra attention, but I concur. We worked long enough on this, please dont split whats left of the linux desktop...

For the record, I think Immich is very good, and I use it myself. But there is something about the design and performance in the mobile app that still makes it feel "not quite there yet" on iOS at least.

> something being down or not is pretty black and white it really isn't. We often have degraded performance for a portion of customers, or just down for customers of a small part of the service. It has basically never happened that

I work for a small company. We have no written SLA agreements.

by javier2 10mo ago
They could, but accurate reporting is not good for their SLAs

by javier2 10mo ago
Yeah. I only work for a small company, but you can be certain we will not update the status page if only a small portion of customers are affected, and if we are fully down, rest assured there will be no available hands to keep the status p

I have used nodejs quite a bit, and I would say it generally performs quite well. Its not as good at making the most out of monster hardware though.

No, it wasn't, and these extremely marginal results got way too much attention compared to the millions of results showing all the valuable results from broad vaccination.

Yeah, its like, we all hated the useless Clippy, but at least it wasnt intentionally made to make the product worse and steal your data better

Making these ad companies liable for the scams they allow (even take a premium for running them) seems like the only way forward.

I am already using claude to help me shopping. It can be so hard to find the actual specifications of a product. Amazon is filled with nonsense information, and its nearly impossible to compare different variants of things like monitors, tv

Most text selection has also completely broken overt he last couple of iOS versions.

I have mostly kept to linux and macos since 2008, so I was shocked when I could still find the old XP style control panels in windows when I tried it a little about 2 years ago

Secure Enclave is actually a real dedicated innovation and everything Apple built around this secure box. And the real innovation is not even the technology, but being focused over a decade to design all products to work without making a ba

I thought I was just incapable of learning. I find it so difficult to write on my ios keyboard.

This. This is also a reason why its so impressive google docs/sheets has managed to stay largely the same for so long

I have seen no signs there are any real GPU alternatives for ARM

I dont really know what has happened, but many forces have had to improve Linux kernel incrementally. 15 years ago, linux was terrible at suspend-to-ram, wifi drivers a nightmare. Power efficiency was lagging far behind on most architecture

I ran my own Wireguard for years, but its too clunky and difficult to put all my devices on it. And if the power at my house goes out, the net is fully down. I suppose its a trade-off for using Tailscale now, with a great command line tool

Nah, ffmpeg volunteers dont owe you or Google anything. They are giving you free access to their open project.

If you need this kind of security, build ffmpeg with only decoders you find acceptable

ffmpeg is pretty complicated, but at least it actually works.

ffmpeg is awful, except for all the other tools that are awfuller and does not even work

EUV machines were in development for nearly 20 years before they could reach actual chip production. The secret sauce was not getting it to work, but getting it to work stable enough such that it can be sustained millions of times per secon

Its usually just a persistent red dot on system settings and the menu that there is an update.
