James Webb calls anything heavier than helium “metal.”

And i call it great music.

So why isn't anyone trying to replace Mozilla yet,

Because writing manifestos is easy and making a browser is proper hard work ?

It is better to give to homeless shelters and food banks.

Watch this stand-up comedy bit which deals with this topic

I've found Niri* to be the best but there are stability/performance problems (especially when you go over +20 windows) with all of them. Maybe once they will be "baked-in" in Gnome/KDE things will change.

Tiling is old news, bring on scrollable window managers.

I honestly think scrollable VM is the future of window management. It just make sense to arrange windows like that instead of cram multiple opened windows in a fixed area.

Why do i get this faulty patch if i'm not even using Bitlocker ?

Also how the heck does something like this happens ? Did MS forgot the size of the WinRE partion which THEY created ?

Wow, even that /people page screams "douchebags".....

Old and pointless article. Since then they "won" the FTC case and purchase Activision Blizzard.

Nobody spends 70 billions only to "exit" the gaming business couple of months later.

According to the ruling, DDL-Music has no other purpose than to share pirated music and Cloudflare plays a central role in making the site available.

And if they switch DNS providers what will they do ? +File a lawsuit for each DNS provider? Makes no sense to "sanction" the DNS provider because of the website content.

Also one other thing that plays a "centrol role" in making pirate websites available are electricity companies which provide power for servers. Shouldn't they sue those too ?

In addition to stopping its services to DDL-Music as a customer, Universal also wanted Cloudflare to block the site on its public DNS resolver 1.1.1.1.

Bunch of clowns...

One extra reason to never use the ISP DNS services. Just switch to Cloudflare and never look back.

Yeah, you're switching browsers not 3D modelling software.

It's easy people. Switch to Firefox today.

Description : "With Fluent Search, you can search for running apps, browser tabs"

Reality : install it, tried to search Firefox tabs, doesn't work. Then found https://github.com/adirh3/Fluent-Search/issues/850

Nope.

Regarding Wayland support, the gap between KDE/Gnome and these smaller DEs (XFCE, Cinnamon, Mate , LXDE etc etc) is getting wider and wider...

This looks like Cruise's fault

Imagine having to write the code that "detects" if a pedestrain is caught underneath the car

There's been enough "Lakes".

Yeah, they need to move to rivers now...

with a fairly steep learning curve and a ton of "tribal knowledge"

Yes, people preffer to debug their own code rather than spend shitload of time to understand Wix/MSI.

Microsoft deciding early on to not produce low cost tools for Windows Installer also didn't helped with the adoption.

First problem was repurposing flags used in the past for different functionality. Just dont do that.

Music wise, i find "Neobliviscaris : And Plague Flowers the Kaleidoscope" to have interesting composition.

"let's throw away Windows ME codebase for NT"

Well the Windows 9x codebase was always mean to be , eventually, thrown away. It existed only to be able to run the OS on very low hardware (eg Win95 run even on 4 MB of RAM).

There's a ton of words on here but I don't really know what it says

Welcome to management.

Why write code if not for the pleasure of it?

Ask a pornstar the same question...but not about code.

Often ?

It's 100% scenario. Complex apps (like Gitea for example) delivered as a single binary is basically the pinnacle of deployment.

Personally i never like the "interactive" part of fzf, ideally i should be able to do micro | fzf "myfile" and have it opened in the editor (fzf matching the first result for the file name)

Instead it's :

micro $(fzf) , then type the filename , select it and presee enter to get it opened in the editor.

and some (a lot?) of the community/devs went to https://forgejo.org/

The Forjero commits prove that this is incorrect (they are still busy removing Gitea branding related things from their code). It's going to take a long time until they begin to match the Gitea momentum.

This is madness.

Yeap, even Sparta would bow down to a 265 MB terminal app.

If their plan is to make their app crossplatform (Windows,OSX,Linux) and be very versatile with the UI customization , then maybe writing a small/focused specifically for your needs UI crossplatform toolkit is not such a bad idea (after all this is what Sublime Text is doing as well)

But the HW accelerated brag is pointeless. Even if they manage to squeeze some extra performance over native toolkits, that is not necessarely going to matter in the grand scheme of things. Drawing the UI is never the bottlneck in a text editor...

chrome.tabs.captureVisibleTab()

Anyone knows what is the actual legitimate use case for this API ? Seems very dangerous to allow extensions access to it.

.prose :is(h2 + , h3 + , h4 + *)

A person which values their sanity would not write this in CSS.

I really don't understand why the industry seems to have lost sight of this.

Because the industry is full of people who are chasing trends and keywords and to which the most important thing is to add those keywords to the CVs.
