> and Macs offer ⌘ Command, ⌥ Option, ⌃ Control, and ⇧ Shift

This is traumatizing for me. I tried to switch to a mac for home use and failed because of keyboard handling. Using Polish diacritics (made with right alt) wasn't obvious at first. I was able to switch keyboard settings to mimic Linux/Windows, but it's just not there. Control and Command confusion haunts me. I dropped the platform because of this and know a few people who stayed on iphones, but also dropped Macs because of keyboard.

I once tried to "find myself" on linkedin search bar on someone else's Mac. I though "I got this, I'm a mac user now!" and managed to close the browser tab and open some random programs...

I admire people who jump between those platforms. Even more for languages that don't have standardized alphabet mappings, like Bulgarian (it seems they don't have consensus there).

The correct link should be rather this post directly, than repo.

Post actually explains what's going on.

google.com is like the guy in the old joke:

- What's your best skill?

- I can count really fast!

- What's 432*567

- 912

- You sure? Sounds off!

- Hard to tell, but it was fast, wasn't it?!

My wife loves bulk book hauls. Those places that we frequent, work like a literal permanent discount warehouse - books in high shelves, on pallets, everywhere. Often hundreds of issues of the same one.

But there is so many books there that no one want's to read. Hundreds of the same book lying there for months or years.

Same for public book-sharing "libraries" (small shelves that look like bird house, usually in parks etc). People really like them and there are many in my city, but most books there are products of a gone era and a gone mindset. No one want's that even for free.

We were taught respect for books, but not everything is worth preserving.

Try F-Droid basic, it has this for a few weeks.

Do you use a lot of apps with that?

I tried it with 3 random apps for a while, but instantly got into issues. Two stopped updating due to Obtanium falling behind how app releases - for instance, developer changed version numbering scheme but Obtanium didn't expect that, so an outdated version was always presented. It wasn't fixed for quite a while.

Yes. F-droid allows that, you can have multiple repositories and ... a few of those even exist :)

I'm using that with 2.0 (or rather with F-droid Basic, but I noticed Basic was updated to the same that is described in article, but a while ago). It works just fine.

I do, but via OpenRouter. Outside of work my use cases are small and cheaper models do great job at those. I noticed even if I "burn tokens like crazy" I still pay less than any subscription available (a few $ a month).

But I guess if I had an agent vibecoding on it's own, I'd go with subscription instantly.

Thanks.

My question was a more of "yes/no" one. So far every time I tried, DaVinci didn't work at all. Not slowly. It completely refused to work on intel integrated graphics, specifically.

Yet it was mentioned over 50 times under this submission. So I guess it is.

Anyone knows if there os support for Intel integrated graphics in Resolve now?

I tried it a few times but I think it didn't work at all with those cards.

It's music discovery. And last.fm does it well, always have.

> Spotify has always been terrible.

It wasn't, really. At least not completely. I fully agree on the algorithm - I miss times of scrobbling to Last.fm, which was much better at this. (Spotify always supported scrobbling to Last.fm from their client, surprisingly).

Spotify used to be snappy and worked really well on Linux. I even used it for local libraries, as it was one of the few options that didn't crash on mine.

It was at the beautiful time when we realized web apps can have local storage, Google released that experiment called Chrome to "show public how modern browser can evolve and inspire other browser makers how to progress". We know it ended up in "extinguish the market with it", unfortunately.

But Spotify chose native app approach - they distributed it as packages. Deezer on the other hand, back then (I don't know now) had just native web app that could pull music locally. I think it was an extension of Chrome (?). It also worked perfectly fine on Linux, almost two decades ago.

We had a lot of decent options back then.

OK, can you provide specific cases/articles about it? I'm curious what can EU do with a merger of companies that are not legal identities within EU.

It's different for their local counterparts, but the original companies?

They absolutely should, but what would be their impact on American companies buying each other out?

This is so cool. I was always impressed by how smooth linux binary execution is on FreeBSD, even solid 20+ years ago. Nice to this can work the other way around.

I always thought this is a rule of thumb, but then I learned that wireless gamepads for popular consoles (back then it was PS3/PS4 era) don't really follow that pattern. I came across multiple tests where older wireless PS controllers and xbox controllers were consistently more responsive in practice.

For modern ones there are some cool posts like this one [1], where most of the time there "were no statistically significant difference", or even wireless was more responsive.

Gamepads always impressed me - they can deliver insanely good response times while streaming high quality audio with no lag. I never found other BT accessories for phones/computers that were even close to that smooth experience.

Is that something that can be backed by data?

If not, I have anecdotal counter info: saw a lot of work of a small team doing hardware testing/evaluation for a hardware reseller. Often using Chinese sources. Typical "our brand is good, but has to be slightly cheaper than competition". Some manufacturers are really good. But a lot of them send hardware so bad that it will electrocute you instantly. Which is wild in that profession - the whole point of sending samples to client is for them to disassemble it to asses quality. This is literally the only scenario, so any lie is instantly discovered.

One company asked for immediate return of a prototype because a client ordered a batch, but they don't know how was it made. They had zero documentation and had to check what was inside.

I don't disagree here. I just pointed out that above commenter seems to dispute the author without having read the article in full. Turns out, some of us are just bad at communication :)

> A tool doesn't accomplish anything on its own. A tool is a means to an end.

Let's be fair, this article is about this exactly.

> That is a question that, the more that I look at it, seems completely wrong. (...) How does anyone measure what the contribution of a piece of software is to the world? (...) The tool doesn't make the contribution. The tool enables people to make contributions to the world.

and then tries to challenge quoted articles again to prove/disprove those words.

Different handwriting styles is just ... personal. Literally a letter. Even HAM radio operators or Morse code users have unique style. Could be ideal for small blog communities, but it falls apart when targeting large audience.

I need 250% size increase to be able to read this, and floating text makes it a super hard read for me.

OP, please use lined template for writing :)

So many of those GIFs I had on a hard drive at some point, wow.

Surprisingly, despite all that colorful circus, it reminds me times when we read web pages. Like... the entirety of them.

To be fair, they do host it. And they do have their own trust anchor.

If you recognize it or not, is another topic.

I find below article to be a cool explanation of that device, while actually showing shape Bosch uses in that logo.

But yeah, it's magneto ignition device, pre-sparkplug.

> Really? Its standard point and click engineer stuff.

Really. UI is easy. CLI is easy. But system exposes everything to you. It doesn't hide any complexity. So you need to actually know what you are doing, as happily clicking randomly won't produce any reasonable result.

> Ok so just a hobbyist perspective.

No need to diminish those experiences. That's how most of us got into the job. And enterprise experience ain't exactly a guarantee of wide knowledge.

Is there anything here that suggests that? You are jumping to conclusions easily.

It's nowadays the default not to export any credentials when exporting MT configs, and even doing that yourself is trivial. Since the equipment is pretty packed with functionality and very flexible, benefits of LLM assistance is big.

As for "sending network configurations" it's a risk everyone needs to consider individually. Having that private may make attackers job harder, but security by obscurity ain't no replacement for a secure setup.

and "(with the right to sublicense)"

If my company presented such user agreement I would be quickly reported by users to local Office of Competition and Consumer Protection, audited, fined, and ordered to change that.

I think this would be even challenged at the level of "Abusive clauses registry" that office maintains, so the agreement would be quickly overruled in court.

If no specific clause would be challenged, this is an example of "grossly violates the consumer's interests" rule.

How is big tech allowed to push this shit anywhere? How is this legal in civilized world?

You still pay for it to the company that has decades of hostile practices towards their clients. Their mechanisms are so bad that they even disable valid original cartridges sometimes, good luck with getting that refunded.

But maybe I'm emotional, as that company has been taking premium for a broken experience of so many people I know. I didn't expect such project going for their equipment.

It's a crutch, anyway. The only way to have predictable results when streaming is to have an environment with only things safe to stream. Same rule like with environment variables, home directories, ai agents or whatever...

I have shown "wrong" things, like a password, a few times too many, even before streaming was a thing.

Ain't Violentmonkey or Greasemonkey a safer bet nowadays?
