They're making a ui to compete with steam game mode, which is already available on windows. They completely miss that the value of steamos is not (just) in that ui, but in the lack of all of the unnecessary junk underneath it.

"there is no other way to preserve it" Bullshit. Right click -> view source Or just press ctrl+s and the browser will also gather all the assets into a folder for you. The arrogance of thinking that the only way you know how is

I completely agree with you. It is very baffling to me too. But that is literally the reason parroted the most. Linux is a monolith that includes a bunch of drivers for things you will never need (on a typical distro, not when you compile y

That computers can be used to perform long calculations is nothing novel. That is literally what they were designed to do. The 4 color theorem was proven because humans actually did the math and discovered a way to simplify the problem enou

I regularly need to write messages in both english and my native maltese. Sometimes in the same message. Autocorrect is more of a hindrance than a help to me there. If the problem was that I make too many errors, then figuring out a way to

Sure! Here you go. Open paint. Set the canvas to FHD resolution. Draw a one pixel thick, gray (#777777) line from one side to the other. You now have a perfect render, with antialiasing.

This is specifically a task that LLMs would be utterly useless at. Because they can't execute loops.

I've had it happen almost every time I try to give them another shot. It presents a snippet of my code, claims there's a bug due to an unhandled edge case, and completely miss the (literally) very next line that specifically handl

Before go had generics it was pretty common to have multiple implementations of the same thing just for different datatypes.

But they didn't copy code. Because the code was proprietary and they didn't have access to it. Reimplementing an interface != stealing code.

if you have the source to those programs, and are willing to (sometimes significantly) rewrite parts of them and recompile (see: wayland, for example) The amazing part is that you don't need to do this in windows whether you have the s

It is mindblowing to me that so many people think that just ripping out functionality and completely eliminating certain legitimate usecases is "progress". And that having fucktons of incompatible compositors because wayland, by d

"While we can’t promise all problems will be completely gone" They could promise to drop support for it once the wayland one reaches feature parity. If any "significant issues" remain, then it's simply not ready for

by vrighter 11mo ago
Wayland isn't decadeS (plural) old. So it can't have been ready that long. And it still isn't. It's a design-by-committee type of thing.

As for the first: Everything points towards the problem NOT being able to be overcome with current architectures. For the 2nd: We are completely 100% sure this cannot be solved. This is not a training issue. This is the case for any statist

I did the math. It's about the exact same as you can squeeze through the thing if it did not physically exist at all. My conclusion is that whether the inner or the other diameter is the one that shrank only affects aesthetics, not fun

A lot of them. They might not always look nice, unfortunately, but there sure are a ton of tools that equal or rival professional stuff (and professional stuff often uses a bunch of them anyway nowadays)
