Is there an issue with Wayland for your setup? I run Gnome + Wayland on Fedora, with two monitors with different sizes and different refresh rates - eerything seems to run pretty fine, including gaming?

So what could be some use cases for this apart from as a toy or for faking photos/art?

Mplayer/MPV used to be able to play videos in the X root window like a wallpaper. No idea if it still works nowadays.

I've seen few people go really overboard with their prompts. RPG-like personality sheets with points assigned to various traits (personality rubric? skill graph?), convoluted graphs of ineligible task descriptions, lots of other stuff that makes little sense to a human. I personally don't think these make any noticeable difference, but people deep into that type of prompting would tell me I just don't get how ChatGPT works.

Nvidia Omniverse Audio2Face perhaps?

[...] there still exists social biases and stereotypes which are challenging to detect and filter.

If Google filters them, wouldn't the result be still biased and stereotyped, just along Google's biases? "I reject your biases and substitute my own!"

What's wrong with the old checkboxes and why are the sliding switches replacing them?

Why do people keep making these webpages that are so hostile to "open in new tab"?

I just don't see a single positive side of this. Cool, now more people can flaunt their wealth in a brand new way. It's like Fortnite skins, but more extreme and for adults. Just one more way to rope people into wasting money on mostly useless shit.

That sounds almost exactly like the functionality that Firefox' Pocket provides. The app downloads a reader view of everything you put in there so you can read offline.

Do you know what advantages does Renderman bring in comparison to Cycles or eeven Eevee, for hobbyists mainly?

Isn't this kind of the purpose of the 'verbatim' search setting?

People claim that Apex Legends employs "Engagement-based match-making" (EBMM) instead of pure skill-based match-making. The supposed point of EBMM is to rig your games to keep you optimally engaged, as you can't just get winning games all the time.

This claim is based on some EA whitepaper on the topic plus the players' own observations of the match-making system.

I can't support or deny this claim as I haven't looked into EBMM, but the terrible match-making system is what turned me off of Apex.

FYI Firefox Focus can also be used as content blocker in Safari. Of course, this doesn't offer the full protection as using Firefox Focus directly.

There's one killer feature of Sublime that I can't find anywhere else (on Linux at least) and it's the reason I still use it:

Upon closing it persist even unsaved tabs, and those tabs are named after the first line of text. I find this incredibly helpful when juggling multiple snippets of code/logs, without having to think about saving or worrying about accidentally closing the window. Intellij Idea and Zim offer something similar, but they are clunky in comparison.

Anyone know another text editor that offers this functionality and run on Linux?

What is the use for the browser serving some of these details? Number of CPU cores, amount of RAM, installed browser plugins, GPU model?

This was taken to the extreme in the novel Accelerando. The main character is mugged and loses his "cyberware". He thus loses the memories and thinking capabilities he had offloaded to the hardware.

I like the dot shortcut - press “.” and start typing a command.

In Input 2 "center" is a keyword, because the markup is using English for keywords. The example output just happens to be in English as well. I assume it will be mapped to a more appropriate word in another language.

There's no point in comparing them, in my opinion. VS Code is a tool for programming; I would call it an IDE but I 'm not very familiar with the app. Vim is still "just an editor". You can still use it for programming (not just coding bash scripts), but that's making your life harder than it needs to be. In my experience the amazing text editing features of vim are only very rarely useful in a software developer's work. I feel the same about multiline editing though. And Vim has amazing text editing features, but severely lacking code editing features.

What's a macOS keybinding theme? I'm curious as the macOS workflow is totally alien to me.

On Linux: Control+Insert/Shift+Insert for copy/paste

I switched (back) the moment they hid "http/https".

Are these websites (a-Shell and LibTerm) generated using some sort of default github template? They have identical layouts, icons, and fonts.

Also, what's up with so many websites being built in a way that makes "open in new tab"/middle click impossible? This problem is exacerbated by the fact that clicking "back", either in the browser or in the webpage, doesn't remember your position in the previous page. Is this due to whatever javascript UI framework was used?

What is vastly better on the X-series devices, though, is switching between your two or three most recent apps. Just swipe left and right at the bottom of the screen (on the bar)— this lets you flip between apps in the order that they’re in the switcher.

That gesture works on iPads as well. Start with a slight updward swipe and go sideways.

Also try four finger pinch and four finger left/right swipe.

Anyone know what's the feature shown in the banner video where a seemingly hand-drawn griffon is then used to generate a 3D model?

So what's the news here? That apps are sending information to tracking services? How is this iPhone specific?

I've repeatedly seen Android phones actually get faster when applying updates.

IF the get updates. My Android phone managed to get slower even without getting any OS updates...
