   There are many problems with this website. I couldn't actually find the meat of it, where the intro page talked about what it could do for us. Inconsistent titles, stuff labelled [TOC]. It might be a work in progress and not really rea

   I'd like to see the minidisc come back but the sheer cost of the units is bonkers today :) Those were the days and gone they have.

   Personally I prefer a useless Siri that I can turn off, rather than a copilot into everything I cannot turn off. I am perfectly fine with Apple lagging behind in "AI".

   Agreed, although LLMs definitely qualify as enabling developers compared to <social media, Steam, consoles, and other distractions> of today. The Internet itself is full of distractions. My younger self spent a crazy amount of time on

   Thanks for opening my mind to this. I actually threw the ChromeOS Flex version onto a Thinkpad I had laying around and I was really surprised by how "ready" the setup is. I feel the same about a good setup that works out of the bo

   I did try Omarchy on an old laptop and it was fairly painless to get started. I did develop an unease the more I read about DHH unfortunately and decided to bail. If anything though, Omarchy shows it's not impossible to get a nice work

   This raised my curiosity. Until now I didn't know you could run ChromeOS other than on Chromebooks. Do you run ChromeOS Flex on some thinkpads or do you work on a Chromebook? What are the pros/cons vs running a debian if you can e

    no, Windows is suffering from profiteering and corporate malignancy.

    I typically jump on the latest macOS with enthusiasm. I once made the mistake to install the beta version of the next os, and well, that didn't go well for me. But typically, within X.1, I'm there. However something shifted since

    I'm one of the rare remote in an office where most are full time there and I'm there one day a week. I have no idea how they get anything done in there. I feel they only can focus before and after business hours. So don't be

    I haven't used windows for years but the shear amount of commentary on recent changes and the claims are so beyond beliefs... It reads like a company that is only there to squeeze money out of existing customers and hell bent on revenu

    These rose tinted glasses are pretty strong. I found nothing but pain trying to run the BSDs on recent computers/setups. There is 'different' as in 'alternative/edgy', and then there is 'different' as

    The whole thing looks very childish, I'm not sure I even fully understand the conversation of #43. Are they troll accounts?

    Two distros with fairly similar ideas have showed up for the "replacement for windows" recently[1]. Zorin OS and Bazzite... I was hoping someone who has tried both could enlighten me as to why one is better than the other? [1] I s

    That's impressive but early macOS were pretty awful UX; I think the UI thread was everything. I remember clicking and waiting.

    I was enjoying what I was reading until the "Limit function length" part which made me jolt out of my chair. This is a common misconception. Limit function length: Keep functions concise, ideally under 70 lines. Shorter funct

    In relative terms your mobile is a superb computer compared to 20 years ago; and it's a small resolution.

    I added DIRECTION, and use it agains the `q`. 0.25 makes them fall slowly. #define DIRECTION 0.25 // usage: vec2 q = DIRECTION * uv * (1.0 + fi * DEPTH); be sure to tweak the rest, it's fun!
