Yep. Anyone know where to find more music in this style?

Uri, with all the powers you have you shall be famously remembered for bending f****** spoons. What a legacy to leave behind. Maybe in the future there is no spoon.

You got anything better?

Do you have a number for what a low level count is?

Android? Nah. I want my vanilla flavoured linux. Without biscuits.

Software for hardware components is not like maintaining a linux distro.

I don’t want to ignite programming language wars but, seriously, would it be that hard to get the current software “compatible” with a linux setup?

If it is that hard then fire the software “engineers” and hire ones who will do a better job.

Ha ha. That never gets old.

You know my XFCE is way better than the latest Windows 11 or macOS whatever.

Sure, I don’t have an instagram app that controls my desktop background but I don’t give a shit about that.

Nah. I have older netbooks (remember them?) and they are still more usable (with linux) than my old ipad.

You think with apples human resources they couldn’t write the software to get their hardware to work?

I think I have the first or second gen ipad. For some years now the OS and apps are frozen in time. I have basically some old games and the old safari browser.

The old safari is slow and, can you believe it, HN does not fully function!

Now, we all know the hardware is premium and this device would probably run linux very smoothly and the touch interface would be a dream. But we can only dream right?

WTF? Apple won’t allow us to use another OS or open software on old non-supported devices? What a waste of physical material!

What a waste of human creativity! What a waste of my money! What a waste of my time! I don’t give a shit how its enabled the masses to be able to do selfies.

This also mostly applies to android devices as well - which is another shit show.

For fucks sake - its 2023 and occasionally we have HN posts that are announcing how we are getting closer to run linux on the latest macs with the new processors. Holy shit! Even with more access and control to the apple macs we still don’t have full linux capability.

Apple has the best mathematicians to optimise for pure profit and as you can see they have done a great job. Apple 1 - Rest of the world 0.

Woz, please have have a talk with Tim (Nice but dim) and tell him the wonders that can be unlocked by allowing apple devices to run linux natively without jailbreaks or hacks. Don’t give me any shit they can’t do that by next month. Until then I can only dream.

Thank god we have surplus machines (eg thinkpads XNNN) available that show us the light of truth.

Ah. One of his masterpieces the Fredkin gate: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fredkin_gate

Thanks for the response. If you have any links, to where I could start exploring, then I would be grateful.

Can you recommend any mud “engines” that can be used on a modern linux system which are easy enough to get into (both for users and devs) and battle tested for security?

Yep, your homepage breaks on my imac/firefox due to webgl.

You got any links to info about those chips?

I guess Bill don’t like it.

Great idea! I’ll put a bet on Microsoft doing this. Especially if Bill reads this, I’m sure he would love it.

Mate, you used the word “boner” when discussing Columbus without mentioning your “privileged” US citizenship. Conflict of interest.

Because you are “American”?

Are you serious? The best /useful things for you are PDFs and SSO? Both of these features are not what makes a web browser super duper. PDF viewing is available in all major browsers. <rant> SSO works in all web browsers - unless you’re using Windows XP as your enterprise cloud server running java and oracle and your asp.net web app requires a microsoft browser running in internet explorer legacy mode. </rant>

Yes, the initial loading does take time before the game can init. Like I said this is not a showstopper.

You could be focusing on the main app logic rather than the spritesheet functions.

Have you finished it yet? ;)

If you’re using plotly (js) and good at it then stick with it as it gives you so much flexibility - especially with scientific plotting.

I saw the examples for OP and did not see anything challenging Plotly for my use cases.

In the beginning its simpler to do and you can focus on the other parts of the game.

In the end you may not have to “optimise” because it works and good enough to ship.

lol?

1.8% does look like a small number but imagine (i know its hard in this day and age with 4TB finger nail usb sticks) a physical library holding good old fashioned paper made artifacts and what does 1.8% of that looks like?

1) 1.8% is still massive 2) 1.8% is still massive 3) what?

Any youtube recommendations?

Is this due to stupidity or malice?

I just can’t get my head round the idea that software written and reviewed by experts and submitted to the “National Institute of Standards and Technology” with a budget of 1 billion dollars can fuck up this way.

I’m no mathematician but I would have thought implementing pure number crunching code is not rocket science.

Buffer overflow, overwrite memory, run arbitrary code, seriously? LOL, WTF.

+1 for stupidity

Some users have embedded images disabled in email client by default.

Ooof! Spoiler alert!

> Well you're just a jumble of electrons and protons interacting with each other. That's a 100% true interpretation is it not?

NO.
