We (I) really would like system where I would enable the languages/characters that I support/recognise and the rest would be displayed as a number in a box.

Lighter maybe, not thinner. I There's no reason for laptop to be thinner than ethernet or VGA ports. Give me full size mechanical keyboard instead (minus numpad).

It's worse than that... WM's that people care about will be ported/rewritten (I know I will probably do one). But the "wm" now needs to have much more infrastructure functionality which doesn't really need to b

Bluetooth used to be mostly optional, now that some people (not me) are forced to use it for audio, things might get better in years/decade.

I use the same solution (not hub like you, but USB 4x switch, originally intended for printers, with an extra hub for have keyboard/mouse). Not all brands work for keyboard/mouse, but I have several that do.

If the stack could be sufficiently small, it's not that different from heap allocated async state. But you probably needs segmented stacks, or at least separate stack async preemptible or non-async-preemptible code (has anyone tried ma

Whenever you have a chance to do something in a declarative way, it's the better way to go IMO. Sad to see XUL removed... newer Firefox extensions are integrated much more poorly and are slower when the browser is busy (due to JS). Pro

I have 2 1920x1200 and there is no reasonable upgrade except maybe something like 40" 4K (and not in retina/high dpi mode). 2560x1600 would be ok, but it's too expensive.

I've used Jenkins quite a bit and I like it a log and it's flexibility. The problem is that it has many features but not all have been added in an orthogonal way so can't be combined well. (Pipelines actually made this much w

We used to have a blinking green light at the end of interval, but unfortunately it was used as an "accelerate" signal, so it has now been removed. Thankfully I have not had a problem with going too late into yellow. Generally I f

Nexus 5 was the best... There were considerable regressions since (HW and SW), ... at least Pixel 3A still has the headphone jack.

We shall see. So far using some "tab discard" plugin is essential to reasonable performance. Somehow having many tabs/windows open slows down firefox a lot, event though they aren't wasting CPU (I have most javascript di
