I'm glad not to use gnome, it really rubs me the wrong way. So few settings and options, and the way it works is totally how I don't want it to work. I'm not 100% aligned with default KDE either but that doesn't matter b

It is yes! It's great. What I like about FreeBSD is the decoupling of packages and OS. You can have a stable OS version but still have rolling packages. Somehow most Linux distros can't manage that. I also like that I don't c

X11 is very well supported under FreeBSD, but the problem is with KDE. FreeBSD does have Wayland but it's not ready for prime time
304.
by wkat4242 11mo ago
Too bad. FreeBSD isn't there yet with Wayland support. It boots now but has a lot of glitches and crashes. And FreeBSD packages are rolling so I'm normally on the latest and greatest.

Yeah GitHub is for open source. Misleading yes

Well, the voyager power source is still pretty good. But as I understand it the thermocouple that converts heat to electricity has degraded. Because the Pu-238 half life is 87 years so they wouldn't even be down to half yet..

Micay was mostly up in arms against CalyxOS not so much /e/. I can't verify that he was right, but most commenters, even former supporters like Louis Rossmann say he wasn't. But it's been very quiet since he stepped

There's people saying that the 'watered down' version is kinda the same. I lack the legal knowledge to verify but as I understand it, it no longer mandates scanning content, but it does allow it 'voluntarily' and it

Yes sure but not intentional ones.

No but many people do. Try getting something by Linus and his kernel team lol. Good luck!

The thing is, there's always someone who does read it or inspect changes. It will surface soon enough if untoward things are happening.

For me privacy = security. If a company has access to my data without my -completely voluntary- consent, that's a security breach.

Jailbreaking is trivial though. If anything really bad could happen it would have happened already. And the prudeness of American models in particular is awful. They're really hard to use in Europe because they keep closing up on what

Yeah how is this bad? I do this all the time and I'm not poor. But I can't take out a subscription on every site I see linked on hacker news.

Really? Also something I didn't see where I lived. But XP was really bad on it because the screen didn't fit many fixed-size windows.

Ah ok, here they were all windows in the shops after the first one. I can imagine also because Asus' distro was pretty terrible, it probably gave some backlash against Linux. I think the only reason they made it was to make it work on

Only the first netbook came with Linux. The Asus EEEPC 701. This was mainly because it was so underpowered it couldn't run windows (and some nonresizable dialogue boxes didn't even fit on screen). But they dropped it with later mo

I don't think a mega corp having full access to my phone while me not having that is very "secure". Sure it's pretty ok against third parties but in my threat model Google and Apple are also adversaries. Microsoft too by

Yeah I hate messing with STLs for that reason. It's an output format. Similar to when you make an image in Photoshop with a load of layers and then export to jpeg where it's flattened and all the layer info is lost. Obj is a bit b

Well, what really prompted this crisis is AI, as well as Samsung shutting down some production (and I have to say I don't think they mind that the pricing has skyrocketed as a result!) But yes we're going to need more fabs for sur

No, but the factory capacity and raw materials needed to make that gaming dram is now under higher demand to make stuff like gddrx and hbm.

Ah good point!

Maybe people get used to it but I can't. I can't even use the "magic" keyboard. I work with them a lot at work but when I use my MacBook I always use it docked. I just need more key travel. The feel is ok but the travel

by wkat4242 11mo ago
The keyboards are terrible now, even the ones that went back to the original type after the hell that was butterfly. There's still almost no key travel because Apple is so obsessed with thinness.

Not much scandalising in that IMO. Very arty photos. Would anyone find this offensive?

Thanks for the detailed answer! It doesn't suprise me at all.

Did this thing meet any design codes though? I doubt it.

VUE was really "happy", clean. Sans-serif fonts. Cool colours. Funny design like a HP logo and on/off button on the dock. IBM made it super suit and tie. Geriatric colour schemes with dark colours, formal serif fonts and anyt

It's the human guidance that makes it special. Low effort single sentence prompt creation like meta does here is super boring of course. But it can be a tool for people with great imagination but not the technical skills to make it rea

I don't mean for content creation to only be AI! I mean it could be a tool especially for people who don't understand 3D design so well. Minecraft makes it easy by using big blocks but you can't have detail like that and it&#
