I make things: electronics and software and music and stories and all sorts of other things.
Yeah I mean it’s just a themed Kubuntu, right?
It’s a fine beginner distro
Wdym? They’re so good they even got backported to C in C23
You know how often C gets big features like that? I mean to get auto they had to basically deprecate a keyword (well, sort of)
Yeah it was good for a while. But now a few important websites for me just don’t work anymore, like a page for paying my loan. It only worked in chromium browsers. I know that chromium will work everywhere because they’re the first to implement the newest standards and are the most supported by developers due to it having a huge market share. I can’t rely on knowing firefox will work anymore. I’ve lost faith in it as a product.
Brave works. Firefox doesn’t. Cope
Yes they are. They are agreed upon standards set for future development from a host of different companies. Chrome is just always the first to implement them. It’s not that firefox will never have them, they just develop slow.
And I won’t switch from brave bc it’s the one browser that just works and has good adblock
Good for you. It works for most websites. But when I can’t pay my loan bc firefox is crapping itself, it means I can’t use firefox.
especially with this recent adblock nonsense that google is pulling.
But brave has adblock, so it’s all good
At the end of the day Lisps are atoms and lists and that’s it
One of the few chromies that has adblock still as well as decent privacy-by-default settings. I just disable the AI stuff. It doesn’t have crypto stuff anymore (at least not in your face; I’m sure you can still re-enable it). It’s the best chromium browser by far.
Haskell is the GOAT
If it weren’t for the fact it doesn’t have good library support for certain areas, e.g. GUI and graphical apps, I would use it for all my projects instead of C/Rust/Python/etc that I normally use
It’s also good for learning bc it drops you in deep. Everything is a pure function and theory based. You will gain a lot of understanding. I also recommend trying to develop point-free notation in Haskell to further your functional knowledge
EDIT: Also, I would personally recommend against LISP (and its derivatives like Scheme and Closure), not bc they’re bad languages - they’re awesome - but bc they are overly simple in their premise. In LISP, there are basically “things” and “collections of things,” and that’s it. To me, it’s not necessarily even functional, but its own paradigm.
EDIT 2: Also, check out code_report on YouTube. He talks a lot about functional languages (tho he talks even more about array languages lol). Check out the haskell solution on this video
The only problem is it isn’t based on Chromium tho. That just doesn’t suffice anymore.
I was an avid Firefox user for years and librewolf user for a year after that, but unfortunately, FF hasn’t been able to keep up in terms of web standards.
More and more I kept having pages just not work. I ended up having to install a backup Chromium-based browser bc critical websites like my banking and loan sites only worked on Chromium-based browsers. Eventually, I caved. If I had to have a second,Chromium-based browser anyway, I might as well just use that for everything.
I wanted to not use Chromium, but FF has lost the war. Chromium runs the show now. No more fighting back. Google owns the internet.
So now I’m on Brave, and honestly it’s way better than Librewolf these days. I would recommend any librewolf user switch over to that.
The GBA, not bc it has fancy features like the Wii, but bc the mods deliver an experience I couldn’t otherwise have.
Sure, running ripped games on a PS1 or full-on Slippi on a Wii is nice, but I wasn’t locked out of those experiences. I could use a PC or even my phone these days to get a similar experience.
However, GBA hardware mods are all about making the GBA the best it can be, not just doing something in yet another place like the Wii mods.
For instance, in the form factor of the GBA (i.e. the landscape form that is far superior to the SP), you can:
With those mods and the extensive and wonderful GameBoy/GameBoy Color + GBA library, you get a truly elite handheld experience.
Sure I can play GBA games on my phone, but I can’t play them with a device that feels so good to hold like this. A dedicated distraction free gaming experience on the go as well. It’s personalized and practical and beautiful.
So yeah, loading backups from SD on a Wii is cool, but to me, nothing beats perfecting an already great device through hardware mods!
Ah I see. So the complaints aren’t really in the feature-set or design of the app, but rather the optimization.
That makes sense to me now. I was coming from the perspective of “I really like how information is organized and how collaboration works” not from a “does this app function well.”
I’ve never really had any performance issues, personally. Perhaps that’s bc I always used the Linux app back when I used teams and had a beefy PC. It had its own issues, but they were really with getting it to run in the first place. Once I could get it running, it always worked well for me.
Also, I was using it a couple years ago, pre-copilot, so maybe that’s added to the crappiness
Never understood the hate. Teams is by far the most competent messaging platform out there. Way more intuitive that crap like Slack or Discord
I’ve been wanting to make something like this for a while but never got around to it.
I also wanted to get a dedicated piece of hardware ala the Steam Deck or a Raspberry Pi or something, so Indie devs would have a spec to target to ensure smooth gameplay while not having to do any kind of special build since it would run normal Linux. A proper Linux Console
I also wanted to design a custom controller for it. I actually got the PCB designed, but never made it and never made the enclosure. It was gonna be kinda like the new Horis where it’s half-modern controller/half-SNES controller, only mine is based on the XBox layout not the PlayStation’s, and also I had the buttons oriented somewhat like a gamecube, with a big “main” button, a smaller secondary button, and two auxiliary buttons (tho arranged in XBox order still)
Maybe I’ll come back to the project someday.
Forget Linux vs Windows, the real question I have is why is Black Myth Wukong so poorly optimized that on a 4060 or 5060 it can’t reach 60 FPS at 1080p even on Windows? Freaking unacceptable.
You would think coming from the mobile world, Game Science would be used to low-spec hardware, e.g. phones, but this game can’t run well even on pretty new GPUs on PCs??? I had no idea this game had such abysmal performance. I wish people hadn’t bought it, so it could’ve flopped
More like the cooler cooler RHEL, the cooler RHEL, and RHEL
I wonder how Asahi on Apple Silicon would do. I would think it would be even less
Fair
