Gotta give you that. He still might have moved the steering wheel with his thigh though ;-) Crazy how it handled a shitty situation like around 6:55 in https://streamable.com/grihhc but failed there. Guess that shows what m

Just to point to another possibility, since the drivers right hand is not in shot, even though his left hand is carefully poised over the steering wheel for the whole shot, it also looks like he pulled hard on the steering wheel with his ri

>>It feels like the height of arrogance and gatekeeping to look down on someone who just wants to be able to italicize or bold some text in their emails sometimes. I really disagree with this part of your post. Plain text is just that

Which is pretty interesting. Apparently Outlook mangles inline patches for the lkml as well to the point that they are unusable and that would have been an interesting talking point in and of itself. But apparently talking about this is not

Which is why I asked what the issue was and the author replied he/she was using Gmail/Apple Mail. I can see using the lkml with Apple Mail being difficult since Apple Mail sucks but sending plain text mails with Gmail should just

Was my comment mansplaining? I'm genuinely curious. Apple Mail sucks and I'm always shocked how many people think it's "good enough". All the Apple apps are barely functional but fall short when it comes to replace

I don't post to this specific list, so there might be weird issues I'm not aware of but... Gmail has the plain text option behind the 3dot menu in the bottom right corner. Apple Mail deserves to die a fiery death and I refuse to s

I'm kinda curious which client makes writing plain text emails hard though.

I do not dispute that you can use this in your app, my issue is with the server knowing about it (as it is in the demo here) and everything the server can call back from the client. It is not about airgapping but about realizing that curren

>Why does a webpage get to know how many CPU cores I have? The question we have been replying too? Nobody gives a shit what you can do within the client. Fingerprinting the client as the host is an issue though, you might at least apprec

by seniorgarcia 6y ago
And it is up to the client to manage all this. You do not gain anything by knowing the clients thread count. Which is what I have been complaining about all along.
12.
by seniorgarcia 6y ago
And that is totally fine. If you don't care you don't need to know. That has been my issue all along. Client computation of course needs to know how many threads are available to distribute computation in an efficient way. Why wou

So, why do you need to know how many cores my platform will provide if you can not judge the performance of the cores anyway?

by seniorgarcia 6y ago
So, considering the amount of responses for thread count that you can not count on for any sort of performance, why do you need the thread count? Since you already answered downstream, I'll spare you the bother of doing it here... >

But how is my CPU count useful to you in that situation? My i7-8700k has 12 threads, my Surface book 2 pretends to have 16 threads, my iPad Pro pretends to have 16 cores, my iPhone pretends to have 12 cores. What is the API I can use to map

by seniorgarcia 6y ago
And I do not get this at all. For my desktop you would get 12, I'm on a i7-8700k with a base frequency of 3.7GHZ and a permanent boost of 5.1GHZ. This rig runs Oculus VR/Steam VR all the time. If I ran that site from my Surface la
