I make things: electronics and software and music and stories and all sorts of other things.

  • Never understood the hate. Teams is by far the most competent messaging platform out there. Way more intuitive that crap like Slack or Discord

  • Stringly typed

    Jump

  • Just use enums

  • Kazeta: the new Linux-based physical media OS (my article!)

  • I've been wanting to make something like this for a while but never got around to it.

    I also wanted to get a dedicated piece of hardware ala the Steam Deck or a Raspberry Pi or something, so Indie devs would have a spec to target to ensure smooth gameplay while not having to do any kind of special build since it would run normal Linux. A proper Linux Console

    I also wanted to design a custom controller for it. I actually got the PCB designed, but never made it and never made the enclosure. It was gonna be kinda like the new Horis where it's half-modern controller/half-SNES controller, only mine is based on the XBox layout not the PlayStation's, and also I had the buttons oriented somewhat like a gamecube, with a big "main" button, a smaller secondary button, and two auxiliary buttons (tho arranged in XBox order still)

    Maybe I'll come back to the project someday.

  • LTT Labs blog + benchmarks for linux vs windows performance AMD/Intel/NVIDIA

  • Forget Linux vs Windows, the real question I have is why is Black Myth Wukong so poorly optimized that on a 4060 or 5060 it can't reach 60 FPS at 1080p even on Windows? Freaking unacceptable.

    You would think coming from the mobile world, Game Science would be used to low-spec hardware, e.g. phones, but this game can't run well even on pretty new GPUs on PCs??? I had no idea this game had such abysmal performance. I wish people hadn't bought it, so it could've flopped

  • More like the cooler cooler RHEL, the cooler RHEL, and RHEL

  • I wonder how Asahi on Apple Silicon would do. I would think it would be even less

  • Alias's rule

    Jump

  • Should be just trash not trash-rm, but it's like the other person said, when you go to rm, it moves it to trash now, instead of deleting, since usually I don't want to truly delete things (i.e., I don't raw delete when using a GUI, so I'm bringing that behavior to CLI as well)

    You can ofc still use the old rm and do full deletion. Either sudo rm (unless root also has rm aliased) or /bin/rm

    But also you can do rm then trash-empty for the same behavior.

    I'm actually trying a new alias alias del=/bin/rm so that I have a quick way to get the old behavior.

  • Alias's rule

    Jump

  • Yeah I was mistaken. It's actually alias rm=trash (not trash-put either)

  • Alias's rule

    Jump

  • I only have one alias: alias rm=trash-rm

    EDIT: Sorry. It's actually alias rm=trash

  • Linux Breaks 5% Desktop Share in U.S., Signaling Open-Source Surge Against Windows and macOS

    Jump

  • Except that the Linux part of ChromeOS is still open-source and the growth of ChromeOS still would yield benefits to Linux users across the board.

  • This is how I learned about ReScript

  • Linux Breaks 5% Desktop Share in U.S., Signaling Open-Source Surge Against Windows and macOS

    Jump

  • It's almost certainly much higher than that

    First of all, ChromeOS is Linux. It's a weird Linux, but it is Linux and can be made to run regular Linux software. It's based on Gentoo. It's not just "technically" Linux; it just straight up is. It's even more Linux than Android is.

    That adds another 2.69% up to 7.69%

    But also, the 4.77% Unknown is almost certainly made up of primarily Linux machines.

    So really, it's a range of percentages anywhere from 7.69% to 12.46%. I would guess Linux users are at least 10% of the US market now

    Source: The StatCounter pages the article is referring to for US: https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/desktop/united-states-of-america

    World wide is also similar: https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/desktop/worldwide/

    There we're potentially even higher: 5.33% to 14.5%. That's just shy of the worldwide Mac users! macOS + OS X is 15.35% worldwide.

  • Heck yeah. Love replaying OoT. It's good every time.

    You gotta play Wind Waker next. Truly the GOAT
