I'm glad they added LoongArch support in this one. Please add more Asian chips support please. Would also be great to add support for most filesystems used by contemporary phones, such as F2FS - and some other embedded ones such as QNX

Yes. Because it'll help people understand Workflows when compatibility breaks. Just like it is good to document the bill of materials / runtimes required for running a system.

Thank you for making it. - Would like a time line view: as of the next few months, what are expiring. - Would like to see a stability score for a Product / Stack, you define the metrics for what is considered stable vs obsolete. How it

In all fairness, the folks saying that the App store model isn't illegal, per last year's split judgment may want to consider Epic could re-open the case. - Citing the current payment options open to most subscription services - H

Most programs do not actually require to address 64 bits of virtual memory. On a pi cluster, I noticed that the minimum memory usage on a Raspberry Pi OS installation shows used memory is almost linearly proportional to integer size. Most p

Looks like this will finally lead to the Year of the Linux Desktop. I think the point is that even though one could do all the hacks required to disable the hardware checks that Windows 11 unnecessarily imposes, subsequent updates and re-pa

I'm glad a lot of people have done this and have commented on this and it's a decade ago. I hope more people get to try this out when they can. Ethernet is a bus, and after switching, the usage has become point to point. It will b

In early Ethernet networks, vampire taps were used to connect devices to a single coaxial cable. You could add a new device in between physically - without disrupting existing connections. Here's an actual video of a connector bring

Thank you for sharing. This is a great post that captures what a spectrogram does, and a must read for people who want to understand how audio fingerprinting works. There are similar approximate algorithms available for other media as well,

clang has been broken for a while in the last few versions. Many issues were left unfixed and development moved to 17.0.0 when they should have fixed those as point releases for 16.0.x instead (patches were available and not integrated). In

Thank you for following up on this. This code we should be sending to the BBC SDL author and asking them to look at improving their own GetPixel code. Every bit (pun intended) helps.

Thank you. Did go through the whole thing. Talk about complicated systems, lack of documentation, work stress and then branding it a personnel failure. Totally unlike most systems today (not!)

If that app ran in a 640x480 mode, memory accesses would be just as fast as the VGA applications 25 years ago, correct? I do think there's a lot more going on than that. Here's SDL's current pixel access code: https:/&#
