The comparison was against the original game. I haven't played on the computer since ages, but that was my impression the times I played it. I'm not deep into all the nuances of the game just that it was considerably better that t

If you play the original and then OpenRA you will be amazed how well OpenRA is balanced. As an example, while in the original game using allied artillery against soviet tesla coils was a dead sentence in OpenRA is great to be able to fire w

If you think Linux is a good candidate for older hardware (which it is) wait until you try a BSD.

That's pretty lame. Startups that show this behavior to the OSS community should be equally punished, be under the YC umbrella or not.

Thanks for the insight. So regarding what you explained above, is Corgi's fate supposed to be similar to Delve's? Or are those numbers so big/important for YC that they won't be banned?

Can someone give a bit more of context on this thread? I have no idea who Nico is nor what Papermark is or does. As an aside thought not related to the thread: Is it my perception or people are getting more used to not only vibe code things

For me Windows 2000 Professional is the best OS that Microsoft ever released. At the time I used it was really polished, stable and fast. One recurring question that I keep asking myself is why UIs have to constantly change for the worse?

I don't because I'm not a Windows user since a very long time. See my other comment. My youngest brother had exactly the described problem in the article just the moment he needed his data the most and called me in panic having no

Iteration 19 is particularly beautiful if you look at it with polarized glasses, it almost looks like a 3d effect.

Users should be given a choice and clearly and concisely explain the consequences of choosing one or the other. Simple as that. What it should definitely not happen is to do this behind scenes and store recovery codes on a microsoft account

One thing I will never understand is why do me need to have animations at all? There is zero value on them. Worse I'm inclined to believe that they introduce a nasty amount of bugs and they also need to be maintained.

Is this a true story though? I mean given the fact that we are seeing AI slop posts everywhere I'm inclined to not take seriously many things publisehd out there anymore.

I hate laptops now shipping with the Office 365 logo. Apparently the Windows logo wasn't enough. How many more Microsoft symbols will keep polluting keyboards?

When I was a kid I used to spend entire days building and creating new stuff once I built the designs from the booklets. Today when I see a Lego kit is kind of another toy: is designed to build one and only one design, compared to the gener

It never occurred to me that I could tie shoes with a different knot. This is excellent. It takes a bit of practice to undo a lifetime habit of tying my shoes with a weak knot. Well worth it! For some reason I have a pair of sneakers that t

Is it just me or do I have the feeling that we have gone too far with our memory requirements? Why everyone now suddenly need 32Gb, 64Gb or hundreds of additional Gb of RAM? Same thing with GPUs, is kind of insane having so much processing

What's going on with tech companies now releasing "limited editions" or "limited runs" of a calculator? I find that a hit ridiculous. Not long ago there was a post on a japanese made Casio laccquered calculator that

I didn't know about this one. Looks an in-depth book on the shell as well. Thanks for sharing.

The pocket is perfect for beginners. It has a nice introduction in chapter 1 that explains all essential concepts to understand and operate the console. Then it is basically a sort of reference of a moderate list of most useful commands for

Thanks for pointing it out! I visually checked the books on the shelf but my eyes tricked me and confused "rr" by "rn".

For anyone just starting I highly recommend: "Linux Pocket Guide" and if moving forward adopting linux as a daily driver "Efficient Linux At The Command Line". Both books by Daniel J. Barnett. Even if you're a seaso

I think this is an unfair comparison. We are comparing a company valued on the order of trillion dollars with a very small company that is trying to put something different on the market. And yes sure, Apple is going to do way better than p

AMD business should be selling FPGA hardware. The software suite should come for free. If it doesn't then people should not purchase AMD FPGAs. It is absurd that in 2026 you have to pay for such tools. It feels like buying a propietary

Excellent. Besides the article, I've always questioned myself many many times how is it that the whole world has agreed that we have to work 5 days and rest 2. Why is it that, why can't be 4 and 3? I truly wish that in general we

If this is already happening among adults, what's left for the current or next generation? Kids that can no longer think by themselves? I believe this is really scary.

So what you actually need is a program that navigates through the huge image of the die and detects if the structure that is looking at is a 1 or a 0? This at the fundamental level is a cross between machine learning and image processing?
