Is the right photo real? I can’t believe how my country keeps blindly supporting Israel…

SpaceX has loads of capable engineers. If NASA gets a massive budget increase, they need to draw from that pool of talent.

Discord sure does feel like a 0.0.x version

Disabling it entirely is possible, but I want to keep the encryption and set a proper password for it instead of the stupidly long recovery key. That and similar features seem to be locked behind the pro version.

I can’t even adjust bitlocker settings on my laptop’s windows 11 home Installation…

I use Fedora KDE, and I don’t think ive ever seen crashes that bad on my system (AMD CPU and GPU). I used to have a small problem with RADV crashing during video playback, but that solved itself after a few updates.

I wish I could delete that partition for good, but my computer grqphics professor forces me to write code for DirectX instead of Vulkan.

Fair point.

No self-respecting UI designer would ever want to work on that dinosaur of a codebase. The GIMP team is simply unable to do what Blender did, even if they made the UI their number one priority.

Isn’t C just wonderful?

The worst thing you can do in non-unsafe Rust is perform an out-of-bounds indexing operation, or anything else that panics. The error you get tells you the panic’s exact location in the source code, down to the line and column. Meanwhile, C and C++ either don’t produce an error at all when accessing uninitialized memory (which is arguably the worst behavior), or it segfaults with zero extra info.

The only way to make Rust segfault is by performing unsafe operations, and those must always be clearly marked.

Except that many other languages have proven that C++ is simply terrible at providing meaningful errors.

I always try to avoid these, unless the application I’m installing has it’s own package management functionality, like Rustup or Nix. Everything else should be handled by the system package manager.

I could actually see myself contributing to Rust kernel code. C code has always been impossible for me to understand, but the Rust part seems to have a more understandable structure

I feel like all C++ does these days is badly and very slowly copy other languages. It wouldn’t be a huge loss.

You might have issues with permissions for serial ports on some distros, but there are loads of easy to follow guides for that. Linux definitely handles them better than windows though. I never had issues where they just stop working like on Windows.

Wayland is basically the direct successor to X11. It basically fixes tearing, makes HDR possible, makes scaling way better, and is all-round just better prepared for the future. I’ve been using it for years without much trouble. The only issues I keep having are scripts which expect x11-specific tools to be there, but that seems to be quickly solving itself while people realize that x11 is quickly loosing support. If you want to try it, I recommend setting up a fresh installation of a distro with KDE, Gnome, Sway, or Hyprland, just to make sure all the right dependencies are installed.

Weird that it doesn’t work. The usual way to run scripts on startup is through systemd units though. That has the added benefits of automatically logging all output and letting you control it through commands like systemctl enable <unit name>. It’s a really neat system, and I highly recommend learning it if you see yourself doing this kind of automation more often.

I doubt that people aren’t “smart enough”. I’ve seen the ads for windows 11 on my dad’s PC, they are literally full screen banners that guide you right to the upgrade. It couldn’t be more simple and obnoxious. The truth is that people simply don’t want Windows 11.
