When I'm paying for said software? No, I don't think I have.

If you have an NVIDIA GPU CachyOS performs significantly better at the moment, so I would go with that. For AMD GPUs it's more of a preference question.

Personally for dev work I tend to use things like Nix to keep the development packages out of the host, that sort of approach works regardless of distro.

> Do note that they make it very, very, very clear that their results are preliminary,

Yeah, I'm not entirely convinced some of the results they're seeing aren't caused by their methodology. I don't think they are either.

I moved a gaming pc with a 4070Ti from Win10 to Cachy 3 weeks ago and have been purposefully testing out various games to see if it's workable; I'm about 50 hours and 15 games deep now and the only thing that doesn't work reliably is HDR. Outside of that I haven't run into any issues I haven't seen on Windows as well.

I use mine every time I take the dog out for a walk so around 2 hours a day most days since I've had them which is over 2 years now, and I've yet to notice any battery degradation. There probably is some, but not enough to notice outside of actual measurements.

How is ensuring the well-being of the people "not any of the governments business"? What other end goal could a government possibly serve?

I think the mercurial log is not doing us any favors here, most of the first few pages is the history of the `quic` http/3 support branch which indeed Maxim is not working on. Scroll past it and he'll be much more prevalent. See for example the log of stable-1.24: https://freenginx.org/hg/nginx/shortlog/420f96a6f7ac

Don't think Source ever won out, Global Offensive was the game to dethrone 1.6. At least in our "semi-professional" neck of the woods CS:S adoption was 30% at best. A clear majority were still playing 1.6 even when Global Offensive came out, and even then it took a year or two of updates to make that game good enough to start convincing significant portions of people to switch over. For example in 2011 Electronic Sports World Cup just before Global Offensive came out 1.6 still had a significantly larger price pool than CS:S. Funnily it was also the first and last ESWC to even have a CS:S tournament, even though the game had been out for 7 years at that point.

This is literally what the AI does as well. It didn't walk into a bookstore and steal all the books off the shelf, it read through material made available to it entirely legally.

The thing that authors are trying to argue here is that they should get to control what type of entity should be allowed to view the work they purchased. It's the same as going "you bought my book, but now that I know you're a communist, I think the courts should ban you from reading it".

My understanding was that `revanced-patches` contained just that: patches. The patches themselves are applied to the target apps on the end user device, so revanced doesn't need to host prepatched binaries that they don't own the copyright to.

Other moral or legal issues aside, this is a pretty clear abuse of the DMCA as far as I understand it.

In the 90s/00s it was often referred to as 'miukumauku' in Finnish, roughly translates as 'meowmeow', as in the sound a cat makes, since it somewhat looks like a sleeping cat.

To clarify, no one is picking a Macbook because it integrates with the existing IT infra, we are simply not allowed to use anything that doesn't integrate with the various corporate malware. And since they couldn't get Linux to play nice with those requirements, it's not even offered as an option.

Our devs are picking Macbooks because it's the lesser pain in the butt, many would go with Linux if allowed.

Working for a pretty big corporation (20000ish employees), the reason for this I hear from our IT/Workplace Services team is that Apple laptops actually integrate with the existing Windows-centric IT infra reasonably well with regards to account management, hdd encryption, endpoint protection, etc. This is not true for really any flavor of Linux, or so I'm told. So it's either a HP ZBook or a Macbook, and a big chunk of our devs go with the Macbook when those are the choices.

Counter argument is service providers just choosing to block anything that looks like Firefox since the market share is so small and it's being used to circumvent their precious protections.

Except you can't just invest it all into renewables and expect to have a stable power grid, the equation isn't quite as simple as "avg_power / $ capex". Last analysis I saw of this argued that the amount of "over-provisioning" needed to cover baseline demand with renewables made them prohibitively expensive as the sole solution. Peaker and storage solutions aim to solve that, but you need to build that capacity in addition to renewables.

> The practice is used widely across Europe and encourages people to open vehicle doors with their opposite hand to avoid injuries to passing cyclists.

Literally first paragraph.

Wait, you mean password history? As in being able to see the old password once you generate a new one or otherwise update it? Because Bitwarden definitely has that.

1% of downloads in Germany specifically*. Not that it excuses the practice, but 1% of downloads in Germany is pretty different in scope than 1% of downloads globally.

The joke they're making is that since we are in the process of turning the Earth into a second Mars, we should be calling what we are doing now marsforming.

While true that the current situation is pretty far detached from the fundamentals, it's not 100% speculative. GameStop just named Ryan Cohen and 2 other execs from Chewy on the board after Ryan pitched an e-commerce based strategy similar to what they did with Chewy. People have some faith in that, certainly enough to believe that the shorts are misplaced.
