IlikeMadison··on Ghostty 1.4
Ghostty barely takes longer than foot to open a new terminal. We are talking in milliseconds here.

time foot = 0m0.130s

time ghostty = 0m0.242s

112ms difference, and I have GPU acceleration after that.

This is nowhere near "slow", like you stated.

IlikeMadison··on Ghostty 1.4
if that's true there is definitely something wrong with your OS / machine, not Ghostty.

You would be crazy to wish the opposite, and worse, to force it on people who never asked for it in the first place.

> Well I'm european and...

Yea sure. You sound like a typical Russian bot.

IlikeMadison··on Mistral Large 4
Imagine being so bitter you are lying this much. Wow.

>The minimum wage in some parts of the US is now higher than the average wage in most of Europe.

definitely not in Western Europe.

so sad you have to use the surveillance enabled chrome browser now, I feel so sorry for you
IlikeMadison··on Dutch governments builds alternative for Microsoft based on NixOS
Completely agree. Before that I would have add the Adobe Suite as well for a lot of people but it's less a problem now fortunately.
IlikeMadison··on Ubuntu 26.10 completes transition to Rust-based coreutils
sandboxing a browser makes total sense. my firefox and chromium running as snaps never crashed a single time for as long as I can remember, and I use both every day, at the same time.
IlikeMadison··on Mistral OCR 4.1
GigaChat is russo-centric and is completely useless outside Russia itself, performs absolutely worse than Mistral once you start using English. Reminder that Russia's economy is smaller than Italy's alone. They are not winning over Europe in any single metric, let alone against the poorest country in Europe, which is not even part of NATO nor the EU, on the battlefield.

>there's a very genuine risk of people being upset over being underrepresented

Explain yourself. Who the hell could feel upset upon seeing Marie Curie, Beethoven, da Vinci or Maria Callas? They are all very recognizable, well known European figures with astounding achievements and highly respected by any true European worth its name.

Are you suggesting we should erase them because of someone's feeling?

IlikeMadison··on EU Parliament greenlights Chat Control 1.0
Not true. A lot of the left voted in favor for it. Ylva Johansson, the person behind all this who introduced Chat Control since the very beginning, is a literal ex-Communist and she's now at the left wing of the Social Democrats in Sweden and EU parliament.

lol... are you from the Middle Ages?

IlikeMadison··on Swedish parliament abolishes permanent residence visas for migrants
Economic migrants are not refugees, try again.
IlikeMadison··on Swedish parliament abolishes permanent residence visas for migrants
It has been proven again and again that immigration, even massive like what happened in Sweden a decade or so ago, isn't even a solution to that problem, so I don't know what you are talking about.
IlikeMadison··on Electric motors with no rare earths
Because it's grossly untrue and backed with propaganda slop articles. I suspect this is a bot.
IlikeMadison··on Electric motors with no rare earths
No, and it was mentioned by the consortium of European cars manufacturers after the joint press release with Der Leyen herself: the implementation of factories and research centers in India is solely to be able to sell on that market. It is the exact same process that happened with China in the past. The exact same also happened with Airbus.

You are also wrong on the market importance for Renault. For 2024, France was the biggest, followed by Italy, Turkey, Spain, Germany, Brazil, UK, Morocco, BENELUX, Romania, Poland, Netherlands and... #13 India with 0.9% market share...

Supply chains didn't change at all, in fact it did the opposite, and Europeans won't rely on anything Indian made for the near future, as local re-industrialization is already acted on and even accelerated since the pandemic.

Production numbers across all manufacturers even Volkswagen (which was unexpected) show the number of cars manufactured in Europe increased in the past 2 years.

Electric cars in Europe mostly come from China, the US and European brands. Nothing Indian-made, not even parts.

IlikeMadison··on Electric motors with no rare earths
European and Indian manufacturers/engineering are definitely not in the same category though.

IlikeMadison··on GrapheneOS user reported to authorities for using GrapheneOS
So we shouldn't be using GrapheneOS neither nor any Sony products if we follow your logic right? Because obviously it means we are addicted to both.

IlikeMadison··on Stockholm poised to become leading European geospatial intel player
Sweden relies on foreign technology for this (US), compared to France and Germany. They also depend on the ESA/France to put these satellites into orbit. That's not what I would call a leader player.
IlikeMadison··on Why the US Navy won't blast the Iranians and 'open' Strait of Hormuz
Germany has 80+ mil inhabitants. Also 90,000,000 people doesn't mean 90,000,000 soldiers, especially when a large part of them hate their own regime.

IlikeMadison··on Windows native app development is a mess
Electron is the worst thing that happened to quality software. I spoke to two HR guys last year at the company I'm working at and they told me they ditch every single resume mentioning "web technologies" in them. Funny part is when they also told me these "bad" resumes are for the vast majority H1B wannabees.

You just got your real names flagged and blacklisted on this other website that provide HR and VC partnerships. I'm not sure what you did exactly but your company and people associated with it seem really shady.

Python and TypeScript... hard pass. Mediocre software made by mediocre web developers. Imagine a car manufacturer using wood instead of steel because they can only afford to pay cheap lumberjacks.
