You wanted to fuck your friend’s meatloaf?

I’m very curious how RDNA 4 will stack up against Battlemage. Ingl, if Intel had released a B580 x2, so like a 5120 shader class card, I would’ve probably bought it (or its sister SKU) already. Gonna be tough competition

Your caption totally doesn’t match these graphs.

‘The lesser evil’ might as well be left (leaning) from the majorities POV. In that case the shift would be to the left. And furthermore you seem to be assuming that this shift continues because you keep voting for the ‘lesser evil’?

I think that’s contradictory. Voting for someone is telling them you like their course best. Why would they change their course if they are already getting the votes? (Or lead the polls?) They would only do so to capture another parties audience - and only if their own ideas are not popular (enough) already. So the contrary is true: Parties tend towards whoever is getting more votes. This is only logical, because that’s ultimately what they need.

Having to vote for a ‘lesser evil’ just means your system is broken, corrupt, or you feel like you have no other option. In functioning democratic systems, you will see fluctuations based on the general sentiment towards current topics. What’s currently going on tends to have a much more significant impact on voters than any ideals.

To give you a very simplistic example: Economy bad -> People vote for guy who (they think) will fix it. This was a big factor in Trumps victory. (And there are probably also more racist then you think.)

The former acted because he was personally affected by a person supporting exploitation within a liberal system, the latter leads an authoritarian regime that allowed their CEOs to do what they do until they got annoying for whatever reasons.

So if you want to talk objective results here, sure, one of them got a higher kill count. However, who has the moral high ground here is not even up to debate IMO

Funnily enough I had more bugs on Tumbleweed than on Arch. Admittedly, most of them were probably not on Tumbleweed, but it seems like there are just much more people caring about Arch. Otherwise I can’t explain why it gets so much better support

2-4 I have never had any problems with, file bug reports if you do I guess

I’m not sure what to make of this, but I assume you wanted to say KDE does what it’s supposed if you select the Wayland session. This would lead to my follow-up question: Why not just use it?

Wayland has been the preferred session for KDE since late 5.X

I don’t know if it is available yet, but KDE Linux sounds pretty cool. It’s kinda the same “Arch for everyone” take on Arch that Valve has going on with SteamOS, but with some pretty fancy stuff planned.

If you want to learn about a couple of cool customisations, you could also take a look at Garuda Linux, specifically the Dragonized Gaming Edition (aka Bloaty McBloatface Edition) or XeroLinux (although I don’t know if that’s maintained atm, I think the dev had to flew from a war in the middle east)

Is it legally wrong? Yes. Should it be legally persecuted? Absolutely. Is it, in this specific instance, morally justifiable or even admirable? I would say you could definitely argue that.

I’m not familiar enough with the dead guy to judge, but from what I have heard I’m leaning towards “yes and yes”.

If you can afford it and want ultra low power consumption, latest gen Intel is for you. If you want maximum performance or go for older gen APUs, AMD is pretty much always better.

Edit: Since Intel’s naming got super confusing: I’m talking about Core Ultra 7 256V and 236V. I’m not sure whether the 288V is worth it. Note that the 256 and 236 also have 32GB variants, if you think you need more than 16.

If you smoke, you better start vaping. If you vape, you better stop vaping. It’s that simple.

If you can’t, at least don’t use throwaway and sketchy products for anything you plan to inhale.

The thing is, much of the new stuff is intended to replace old stuff. Modern C++ is a completely different experience than old C++ - actually a much better one imo. But then there are two problems which make things messy:

1. Lagacy code, where introducing new concepts without updating the older parts increases complexity.
2. People who don’t know or don’t care and just copy-paste whatever, mixing styles and standards.

In both cases, you end up needing to know how to do things the new way and the old way, while one of which would be sufficient.

There are exceptions of course (try{ pun(); }catch(const NotFunnyException& err){ return NOT_INTENDED;}).

THEY ARE DRAWING CLEARLY UNDERAGE GIRLS AND CLAIM THEY ARE 900, DAD! DAD? DAD WHAT IS THIS GREEN WEBSITE!? HOW DO YOU EVEN KNOW LAPTOPS?! OH GOD! I MEAN, YOU, I MEAN… MICHAEL! MICHAEL HELP!

There are alternatives tho, no reason to support them

The audacity of playing victim when there’s a warrant for your PM because he’s responsible for war crimes, while at the same time your country is occupying and illegally settling on the land of the people he’s committing war crimes against, is remarkable.

Love how 2/5 comments suggest using KDE (like any sane person) and I totally wasn’t going to do the same (like any sane person).

It used to be pretty terrible, but the frameworks are getting there, starting with the languages they are based on.

Believe it or not, Java has been optimized a ton and can be written to be very efficient these days. Another great example of a high-level, high-efficiency language is Julia. And then there is Rust of course, which basically only sacrifices memory-efficiency for C-speeds with Python-esque comfort. It’s getting better.
