No I don't. The restarts are fucking infuriating but, at least in my case, they've never been catastrophic. My computer is usually running all the time but when I finish working on some thing I always ^S everything and usually `

I actually do pretty mundane, boring stuff with computers - web dev, some finance & trading, lots of backend. It isn't all that exciting to an average person but I'm fine with it, it gives me pleasure to do it and I don't

Years ago I did some C++ development using Borland C++ Builder on Windows and couldn't find any problems or annoyances. I've been doing web dev (both front and backend) for a decade or so and can't really complain about anyth

While I understand that this sucks, I've been running Windows as a primary dev machine for a long time now, so this particular problem doesn't affect me personally.

While I wholeheartedly agree with you, I think that putting the horrible piece of shit antivirus software on enterprise boxes is a cover-your-ass tactic. It's required from IT depts to be able to say they followed industry standard pra

Care to elaborate? I'm using Windows as a primary dev machine for years and I've encountered no problems aside from the infuriating update-related restarts. What am I missing? This is an actual, emotionless, genuine question? Alwa

If you're looking for a PC that's not a headache to put together, is semi-mobile, powerful and quiet have a look at AMD-based gaming PCs. I got a Lenovo Legion with 4800H(8/16)/32GB/2T/GTX1650/144Hz a coup

That's probably it, yeah. Still, surprising that only Instagram figured the RM2 angle out.

You know, I do see a lot shit on Twitter but somehow my brain has given the low value, spam etc tweets the "advertisement treatment" - I tune it out, don't "see" it. Any artists in particular you'd recommend?

Yep, seconded. Stopped using FB years ago and I use Instagram for two of my passions - tiny houses and boobs. And, somehow, Instagram figured out that I wanted to buy a Remarkable 2 ;) But yeah, joking aside, Instagram was the one of few pl

Yeah, I can relate. The ephemeral and mercurial character of those things really bugs me. I stopped using Facebook because it's useless - once I scrolled past something I could never find it again. Infuriating. On a funny note, I seem

For me, what makes Linux a better administration experience is the ability to backup and move configuration. In Linux it's all files. In Windows? Who knows. It's registry entries, files spread across hidden directories and god kno

Yep. One of very few pieces of software that when it runs I swear I can actually hear the zillions of transistors in the CPU doing their job. Unlike an Electron app that tasks 16 cores with endless fucking apologizing for their creator&#x27

Seconded. She puts out so much good content and thoughtful analysis.

I kinda always wanted to try a tiling window manager but, since I mainly work on Windows I've grown used to AltDrag, GridMove and, recently, FancyZones@PowerToys. Any reasons a tiling window manager is superior to using keyboard shortc

Same here. I thought I had a good grasp on how I think and why I do what I do and this was a real eye opener. It was freaky that after 300 or so pages I suddenly didn't have to smoke whereas before I tried literally thousand+ times.

Don't use Amazon all that much but from the comments here and in other articles that seem to pop up more often recently I figure now time has come for Amazon to finally milk that sweet sweet trust relationship. I've recently used

Seconded. However, you forgot to worry about the inevitable shutdown just when you would start to enjoy or rely on it.

I like that!

Doesn't seem to work in my setup. If I use the scroll bar manually by dragging it I do get 120Hz. Using mouse scroll wheel is 60Hz for sure. Same scroll wheel in Chrome/FF and it's 120Hz.

Yeah, HODLing is underappreciated. I once tried mining, a long time ago. Dumped $5k in mining equipement and, at the time, barely broke even. Had I bought and held, instead of wasting countless hours on the project, I would've been wa

Oh, I was wrong, sorry. It turns out that it does render in 120Hz but the smooth scrolling is somehow still capped at 60Hz. Is there a way to fix that ?
143.
by mszcz 5y ago
Is there any way to get it to render at over 60Hz? I've got a high refresh rate monitor but Sublime still renders in 60Hz. I've enabled the hardware_acceleration and it shows up in the console but still no dice.

Even as an exercise to understand how it works?

Tulips weren't easily transferable, divisible, durable, in limited supply or fungible but hey, let's hear more about this original theory of yours.

Check out GPD P2 Max or GPD Pocket 2 . Not sure about the Alpine compatibility but it seems that it can run Ubuntu.

AltDrag has been one of the first pieces of software I install on a Windows machine for years now. Such a time saver. As we're a little OT here, I might as well recommend you check out GridMove which moves windows to predefined positio

So in Russia you can express different views? There's freedom after freedom of speech there now?

Yeah, somehow I rarely come across the correct order of those. For me, it's usually "agree to cookies" or other nonsense first and then "region-go-fuck-yourself" kind of stuff.
