There has been a lot of progress with MoltenVK and polyfill backends like gfx-rs in other emulator backends. I wonder if either would be suitable for Blender in the future?

Have you tried out Zulip? You may find the user experience pretty compelling. It's an entire alternative interface to the slack or IRC-style of chatrooms, and it's OSS and documents how to make it containerized.

The preset party supports stronger Democratic norms like same-day registration, the other supports Voter ID laws and reducing the number of polling locations. Of course an app encouraging voter maximalism can work in favor of the party that

Relevant comment by wgrant: The body of the 418 is {"error":"got unknown host (registry.npmjs.org:443)"}. Looks like some npm clients are appending the port to the Host header, but only when going through a

Remove some of the extra options from the list, like the ich9-intel-hda device probably can't be run on your machine.

True, though the fix for Meltdown requiring a performance hit might exacerbate bad incentives (people not wanting to upgrade) or bad publicity for major corporations (server hosts whose clients now have degraded performance). Whereas Heartb

To be fair, the Intel post alludes to collaborating with AMD/ARM on mitigating Spectre, but userspace memory leaking is wholly separate from kernel memory leaking (Meltdown, which only affects Intel processors).

Not to say you should doubt the Safari team, but I remember the auto-push of U2 albums to users without an opt-in being comically similar.

I do think we should simplify, and correct, the way grad students are paid. But I think the tax bill, with few public markups and no informed witnesses, is an extremely scorched earth way of approaching this problem. Can America afford thre

Well, EFF or ACLU support a broad number of cases every year that align with their mission statements. Thiel's involvement may be similarly principled and nondiscriminatory, but since his involvement was just on one case against an ent

Arguing the biological factors make a meaningful difference in engineering feels like arguing for vim or emacs makes for a better engineer, or Windows vs. Mac users, or Chrome vs Firefox. Even if you use a computer differently just consider

Rain noise helps me sleep and it helps me focus. ASMR is strangely helpful sometimes too. I've found it's never a silver bullet, but trying different white noise sounds to fit the moment.
