what communist country?

Good article, though I wish it talked more about how CPUs choose what to cache

the HDR by my understanding is basically just automatic conversion, not actually support for programs to use HDR on their own. I’ve been using gamescope to run games in native HDR.

beautifully drawn!

lua is a really cute and surprisingly capable language! it’s how I got my start, and it’s one of the easiest languages I’ve ever played with. it would’ve been a good pick for web, I think. probably just needed to be fleshed out more.

for real. I’m very lucky to have landed a job in it, but it’s a dry market for anyone looking if they don’t want to be doing crypto. Rust has made a big name for itself but still isn’t that popular where it matters.

not enough, I’d like to be paid proportional to the exploitation of my self sabotage

in many cases autism is what makes me such a good worker

I mean, archinstall is pretty nice! it’s certainly not flashy but it’s a great tool that gets you up and running very quickly with no hassle

I love it because software written in rust tends to be straight up better. because it makes it so easy to make your code parallel, because it makes it easy to be user friendly by design, people actually go that extra mile. because it’s so easy to pull in a dependency to do something you’d be too lazy to do in C, the tools can get a bit big but they tend to work really well. I’ll take a rust CLI app over a python CLI script any day, and I’ll especially take it over software written in C. most people don’t care as long as the tool works, but you can definitely feel the difference of the language it’s written in in its design and performance.

very few students are interested in what and how they’re learning

yeah if only I was joking. wouldn’t that be funny

too bad everyone else is wrong

there aren’t 30 best languages, that’s not how “best” works. we use only the best language. for everything.

we should use only the best language for everything.

the app is the piece of junk for taking so long to load on an incomprehensibly fast processor

I’ve been able to play cyberpunk and the witcher in HDR, also elite dangerous. I have to use a separate tty where I launch gamescope, and have to boot with a patched kernel on a separate bootloader entry. It’s not ideal, certainly, but it does work and the experience is good once I did get it working.

I feel like this is the crux of it. do they think we WANT to be glued to our screens? social hubs are dead or dying, wrung out for profit. people have less time than ever, having to work and spread themselves thin just to stay afloat. mental healthcare is inaccessible to huge swathes of the population and our parents who can afford it refuse it. outside is a car dependent hellscape with increasingly unpleasant weather and increasingly agitated people. as a neurodivergent person it feels impossible to navigate. the phones don’t exactly help, but they’re certainly not the root of the issue. everybody on social media at this point is well aware of the drawbacks.

nowadays archinstall will get you up and running nice and quick. I broke my setup the other day by misusing paru. I wish arch didn’t have this reputation. other than me uninstalling my own display manager it’s been perfectly stable through every update since I installed it years ago. the wiki has incredible amounts of digestible information that has helped me set up anything I want. it’s true that it can be more difficult than other distros, and there are some elitists. but it’s a good choice for people who like to tinker.
