Barcelona is interesting for its modernity and city design. It's maybe the most heavily planned and designed European capital. Maybe it's hard to see that coming from the US where all the cities have been planned in the last centu

Well, once installed, Fedora Asahi is just standard Fedora ARM with some drivers and bootloader code. You can do anything you would do with a Fedora. > (I have been exploring/searching on Asahi and I am gearing up to use it on my M1

FWIW, I use macOS everyday since more than 15 years (I also have a PC running various distros) and it’s true that the dock is absolutely dogshit. It’s unclear what will happen wen you click on anything, it’s useless if you have multiple win

Aren’t we talking about video out from the dock ? Because it wasn’t possible for Switch 1. After some time, some alternative USB-C hubs supported the Switch video output but it was basically reverse engineering and I totally remember this f

You may try to import Hisense e-ink phones from china. They can be flashed with Lineage OS and have a standard smartphone form factor but with an e-ink screen. Pay attention that they also exists with color eink screen and that those versio

FWIW : I own 262 games on my steam library, played most of them at least once. I had no issue with any single game. I don't play multiplayer games so I'm not concerned by anti cheats though.

Yep. PC openness is totaly a bug and not a feature of the capitalism. We should cherish this situation and fight for it because it really feels like the other long term alternative is techno-fascism.

Well I don’t think so. First, op is talking about Chrome which is not an Apple software. And I can testify that I observed the same behavior with other software which are really not optimized for macOS or even at all. Jetbrains IDEs are fa

Sure but it’s pretty easy overdose on paracetamol. Since it’s a mild and really common painkiller, sometimes seen as not dangerous, someone uneducated about it who is really suffering could easily take 3 or 4 times the dose. Unlike a lot of

Actually they do over drive them. I think it is explained in the asahi sound driver GitHub which reverse engineered the Apple driver. IIRC, there is an algorithm which overdrives the speakers in physically dangerous zones only on some frequ

I’d say it’s barely 3 things : - The trackpad (but other manufacturers now have tolerable alternatives and anyway you can work without it) - The screen : at an equivalent price point (and even more), nothing comes close to Apple screens. Th

For now, I still have hard time believing in unattended agents. Be it using a computer or generating programs. I mean that would sure be a nice demo, but it’s too probabilistic to give AI agents real tasks (and it seems that isn’t going to

Apple barely does it and only for their products. I agree with you that that’s already too much and too annoying but that’s an order of magnitude less than Microsoft who advertise their products pretty aggressively AND ALSO are advertising

Actually this trick have been proven to be useless in a lot of cases. LLMs don’t inherently know what they are because "they" are not themselves part of the training data. However, maybe it’s working because the information is som

Interestingly I feel quite the opposite but it depends on the job. Bootstrapping things like a new project ? Yeah, things can be too fast for me to stay in the flow. But my day to day is about working with already existing code which I have
