Is that why India has the best programmers?

whitecapstromgard,

Apple wants to keep selling overpriced cables to losers.

whitecapstromgard,

I support the idiot tax. Good for him.

Even Microsoft does not trust Windows on Azure 🤣

Twitter is losing daily active users. CEO Linda Yaccarino confirmed it. (mashable.com)

By now, you may have heard about Elon Musk’s handpicked CEO for X, Linda Yaccarino, and her disastrous interview with CNBC’s Julia Boorstin at Vox Media’s Code 2023 event. However, somewhat overlooked amid some of the more viral moments of the discussion, Yaccarino dropped some previously unknown stats that don’t exactly...

whitecapstromgard,

It suprises me that people still use Twitter. Like, how spineless are you?

whitecapstromgard,

Most journalists are entertainers in disguise. They do not care, as long as there is an audience.

Cyberpunk runs 30% faster on linux than on windows 11 (m.youtube.com)

The YouTube channel “Maximum Fury” conducted a technical test of the new Cyberpunk add-on called “Phantom Liberty” on an older AMD hardware system, testing it separately on Linux and Windows 11. The Linux system, specifically the Fedora distribution called Nobara, performed significantly better, delivering 31% more...

whitecapstromgard,

Not suprising. Linux is usually faster, that is whe backend of every internet service uses Linux.

whitecapstromgard,

She is free to work someplace else.

whitecapstromgard,

EU competition law is about not having a single company dominate the market.

whitecapstromgard,

The ARM deal is not happening.

Nvidia doesn’t make a better product. They just lock in their ecosystem and prevent competition from breaking into the market. For example CUDA code can’t be run by other cards.

whitecapstromgard,

Back in 2010s, I had to open Windows to game. Now all games work out of the box with Linux, thanks to wine, vulkan and dxvk.

whitecapstromgard,

I think the real gamechanger was Vulkan. OpenGL was just not suited for this.

whitecapstromgard,

Of course they are. If you are surprised by this, then you are an idiot.

whitecapstromgard,

Telegram is a suprisingly good app.

  • Open source clients
  • Decent Linux client on the laptop (whatsapp desktop is just terrible)
  • It can be downloaded without Google’s appstore.

I wish other apps were half as good as Telegram.

whitecapstromgard,

Better than being owned by Americans.

whitecapstromgard,

For whatsapp nothing is opensource

whitecapstromgard,

Russians didn’t invade Iraq, Americans did.

whitecapstromgard,

Whataboutism is the logical and correct response to hypocrites.

whitecapstromgard,

There are two realistic alternatives with hundreds of millions of users. Whatsapp has a closed source client, Telegram has an open source one. The choice for me is easy.

whitecapstromgard,

hah, this is ridiculous.

I will continue to point out hypocrisy. You do your thing.

whitecapstromgard,

Because there is no alternative that is on my friends phone.

whitecapstromgard,

Yet WhatsApp is neither.

whitecapstromgard,

I prefer Telegram to something owned by an American corporation.

whitecapstromgard,

The Iraq War is still ongoing, it flares up and flares down from time to time.

And the murderous American thugs who raped the Middle East are still around.

whitecapstromgard,

Pipewire is amazing. Linux had issues with Bluetooth audio that Pipewire finally fixed.

whitecapstromgard,

Yo ho yo ho 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️

whitecapstromgard,

🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️

yo ho, a pirates life for me

whitecapstromgard,

fair point.

The Boys was good, but the Lord of the Rings series was horrible.

whitecapstromgard,

One could make the case that the loss of West Virginia is a benefit in itself.

whitecapstromgard,

It clearly shows a major update in signups

whitecapstromgard,

Organic maps is my daily driver for navigation and has been since 2 years. It is a great app and improving very rapidly. It’s also a great app for adding POIs to openstreetmap when outside.

whitecapstromgard,

I like OrganicMaps’ editor more than streetcomplete. I think streetcomplete focuses a lot on things that don’t matter.

whitecapstromgard,

Yed, basic ones for adding and editing POIs.

whitecapstromgard,

No I have not. Let me give it a try thanks.

whitecapstromgard,

It’s in development. I think there is beta functionalty already that you can try.

whitecapstromgard,

I find it that being on the latest kernel is more stable than using an ancient one.

whitecapstromgard,

If you use LTS sofware, then you have to live with problems that were fixed years ago.

whitecapstromgard,

No you don’t. You get security fixes, but you don’t get the convenience feature fixing a problem in your workflow.
