Stopped reading at "Use Brave", "Use Mullvad Browser". Know your local noob by which browser fork he uses. Upstream security response will always be better, your "builtin" features doesn't mean its more li

Interesting. I think the software is absolutely tasteless. For a long time it had to update "twice", asking you to restart steam 2 times in a row. It defaults to showing an "ad" on startup. Its chat had a bug that had hi

You are still downplaying the effort of Wine massively. Wine is several millions lines of code compared to Proton and it isn't just "syscalls", its decades of trial and error and bugfixing making a mature codebase that Proton

Totally. Steam store looks like a god damn aliexpress marketplace and is tasteless design. The Store UI is disgusting and intrusive compared to all other competitors who actually have a decent overview and design.. You can collect gems, car

> The Steam Deck is a great gaming system. This isn’t because of it’s great battery life. A Nintendo Switch would probably have better battery life. It’s not because of its great performance. I don’t usually play AAA games, so I wouldn’t

He also paid an advertisement (still running on youtube I assuming, seen it within the last week) "Anyone who visits this page get $1200" or something in that range..

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hector_Martin_(hacker) https://youtu.be/dF2YQ92WKpM Hector Martin of Asahi Linux. Some talks on reversing M1, I thought it was one of the best I've heard this year.

Vim is way more customizable and portable than any gui editor imo. An extreme amount of filetype support is builtin to the vim runtime, try to peek how many definitions there are in the src/runtime path on github. I think its well wor

True, however at some point you have plugins that take near 1s to load like syntax highlighting and its just not possible to reduce that to 100ms

All laptops suck nowadays. Lenovo and Dell learned from Apple that laptops don't need to last to be expensive.. since Ultrabooks happened laptops have serious QC issues.

IDGAF about their "sent DOA and fix later" on-site support. It will NOT fix terrible QC of their motherboards.

Nope. Its all buggy and shitty. Dell XPS had coilwhine for several ages despite numerous complaints and other laptops with same chipsets didn't. The cause? Cheaping out on inductors. Lenovo has firmware issues I just returned my laptop

Would be an odd reference without context, but I'm not sure. I just hope he is alright.

Yeah he seems very depressive, going through some personal stuff. I think his (pinboard) Twitter-bio said something dark like "The light inside is broken, but I still work" at some point.

You're right, nothing is made to last. But Macbooks aren't any better.. You'll be paying for a new logic board exactly 1-2 years later out of warranty. Lenovo has firmware issues which makes an extreme amount of laptops go bl
