It avoids the overhead of Promises, so I can imagine that this would be quite useful if you know that blocking the thread is fine for a little while (e.g. in a worker).

Servo's original purpose was to reinvent everything for Firefox to modernize the codebase, and make it secure and more performant (e.g. CSS styling engine, HTML parser, etc.) So it actually fits that purpose pretty well.

I wonder what this means for the EU. We made a new deal under pressure of the tariffs that is actually worse than the deal we had. If we had not bent the knee, we would have had that original deal back, or at least, so it seems? Now we seem

The EU is sovereign, it is, and always has been a project for member states to tackle issues at scale that would not make sense to duplicate on a national scale, and to reap the benefits together. Don't buy into the nonsense that being

They are also doing a lot of generic work that benefits the ARM platform as a whole. And since Snapdragon X is a fucking mess on Linux, these Apple Silicon devices are actually some of the best cheap hardware you can buy with excellent perf

I am running KDE, and they look just fine. If you mean they won't follow your theme, yes, but also a lot of other apps don't (e.g. Electron).

Honestly, this seems like it could be pretty cool for video games. I always liked Oblivion's 'Radiant AI', this could be a natural progression, give characters motivations, relations with the player and other NPCs and have an

It is a war we must fight now, and must continue to fight. It is a war against oppression, against autocrats squishing their population for servitude. If nobody steps up to protect Democratic values, and the freedom of the people for self-g

It starts from the bottom up, we need to make it a priority, it is part of the defeatist attitude we have, total lack of self-confidence. We need a 'Yes we can' movement.

We should not be allying with any oppressive and dictatorial states, the US is just rapidly sliding into becoming one, and nobody wants to acknowledge it because of the consequences it would imply. If you ask me, us Europeans need to find o

Indeed, petty national topics that are used to create fake polarization against Brussels, is what is keeping us from realizing the federation we so desperately need. I am so tired of the endless, unbased right-wing arguments from nationalis

The EU actually has a great track record, it has been a massive unifying force. I think people tend to forget how shit things were even 30 years ago. I really hate this constant shitting on the EU for no concrete reasons. It is crippled bec

I really think that the main issue is that NPM itself will execute any script that is in the "postinstall" section of a package, without asking the user for permission. This is a solved problem in other package managers, e.g. PNPM
