I don't even agree with that... even if you constrain it to a pretty prescriptive toolkit (MUI, Mantine, etc) it still does a pretty janky job of things.

I don't necessarily agree with that... I think that it's a matter of perspective. I find that AI tends to make a lot of the same errors I've seen from actual developers, especially when interacting or leading foreign dev tea

It's kind of wild in terms of how it will use different random designs, even given a specific style guideline. Even if you tell it to use a given framework like MUI or Mantine, it will stray largely from format. I don't mind work

I though Adobe's font pricing was extreme... While I do appreciate the effort it takes to make a good typeface, this just seems a bit excessive compared to even other commercial alternative packages.

I had an RX 5700XT at launch, that was about the most painful... but 6mo later it worked fine... But by then I did switch back to Windows because I couldn't deal with the day to day issues... A year later, I went back to Linux and hav

I'm with you... beyond that, there's a lot of other costs involved with solar and in particular wind. Least of which is disposal/recycling on top of the materials and transport for assembly. I think that especially in areas

I still feel that excluding Nuclear is a mistake for a lot of areas.

LLMs aren't a requirement though.. and if you're learning, you're probably better off without the things. I was pretty down and out after the .com bubble burst and was staying in a house a friend was renovating without inter

One niggle... Basic wasn't really free either. At least not QB45, etc. It's wasn't super expensive, but it wasn't free... Also worth a mention is computers themselves back in the 80's and early 90's costs as m

I really think MS should have just resurrected the "Wordpad" app name for what the new "Nptepad" does. It would be far less annoying if they'd just done that.

I tend to run pretty close to the edge on hardware (9950x, 9070xt, gen5 nvme)... I've had a few issues with that in Linux... that said, I've been using Linux as the main OS on my desktop for a while now, and when I upgraded about

I was a little curious to see if there was any Tauri integration, and it looks like there is (tauri-runtime-verso) ... Not sure where that comes out size-wise compared to Electron at that point though. My main desire there would be for Lin

Note, if you're going to use the EGA 8x14 or VGA 9x16 fonts for rendering, your best bet is to also render each pixel 3 pixels wide and 4 pixels tall, then scale to your desired size... I do this, then the 50% of the scaled render look

And all the latency of classic ASP.Net Webforms. Click a button and see the page change in the length of a short yawn. Or, switch to client side wasm and load a payload that makes the typical react dev jealous.

For the office apps, the cloud versions work well enough... I think even Visio (additional fees) cloud/web version actually works okay now, I haven't used it recently. At least well enough for the occasional interaction if Libre&

I setup cloud sync on my nas to sync my dropbox, google and onedrive accounts... I only have dropbox actually installed anymore as it's just what I mostly use. I mostly tend to keep some important information synced to the others, for

I tend to make a concerted effort to often make sure anything settable via cli is settable via environment variable... though, I often have a search-upward option for a .env file as well. Mostly so that it's easier to containerize&#x2

Also worth mentioning are VeloxDB and RavenDB, both written in C#. TBF, I haven't used any of them... but aware they exist. C# is pretty powerful and capable of lower level usage, such as in the examples given... not to mention a pret

Proxmox can do LXC and has some experimental support for converting Docker based images... that said, it's not the same as Docker/Podman support, which are more feature rich. I would suggest at least a minimal Linux Server VM if y

True... but it was never really the same... IMO Saturday Mornings were kind of a special event before there were 24/7 cartoon network etc. Even if 2/3 of it was of dubious quality.

And Saturday morning cartoons from 5am-1pm... then they started rolling back the non-toons earlier until no more Saturday morning cartoons. Phoenix, AZ had a local variety kids morning show, "Wallace and Ladmo" that anyone from th

Wouldn't necessarily bet on it... would likely need to use puppeteer or playwright and change the user agent to match the desktop browser. And even then, the various services likely change pretty regularly. That said... could maybe se

I started just ripping everything when the studios started adding unskippable ads... I had a rental copy of Friday, still have never actually seen it, there was a bad scratch and it froze after 30+ minutes of unskippable previews. I've

It's also worth looking into if your local library offers Kanopy services.

I would probably go Blu-Ray at least to have higher resolution content... Ripping isn't too bad (I use make-mkv then re-encode with handbrake). I don't really notice going up from 1080p, but really notice going below 1080p conten

Not sure if this is legit... I could see it working well enough if they require the laptop to support at least say thunderbolt3/usb4 then they can use a single connection interface to a management/dock interface that includes a ne

While I get what you're saying, I think it's exactly in that the expectations are different between a donation and a payment for product/service. You pay for an existing product/service and expect that product/servi

Ironically, I've got most notifications disabled because I simply find them annoying. I think SMS, phone calls and my CGM are the only things that cause my phone to regularly make noise.
