So that's how it worked with MacOS and Windows? Color me surprised. But bth, Google doesn't seem to care about Android either. Chrome supports it on Snapdragons and that's it. Do you have Xclipse GPU? Like, I don't know,

Half of the stuff you names is security from you, not security for you.

What exactly is an old Intel mac and what is a casual work? For example, I have 2015 macbook pro. The last macos release for it is Monterey. Even brew has problems with that, erroring out when installing packages like libpng and complaining

Not really; vintage macs turning obsolete are being dropped from the macOS support very reliably. I.e. the 2015 mbp was dropped from 2022 macos release like on the clock.

Well, they removed the ability to connect local rdp pcs as well (in the Windows version). Their recommendation is to continue using mstsc.

Never seen this; however, youtube prefers pushing VP9 over H.264. Maybe your computer cannot use hardware decode for VP9 and can for H.264? (Since you mentioned, it is an older one). Maybe the h264ify extension would help. What firefox cann

Native widgets libraries were historically those, who were only one that knew, how to talk to the display server. So if you wanted to write another widget library, you had to link to them anyway, to use them as a proxy. That's how Qt,

Do they? There's no lack of Electron UIs on Mac and Windows. What's even a native widget library on Mac and Windows today? Do Swift-UI and WinUI (v3 nowadays) count? It's not as clear cut as it was in 2000s.

They both look very nice; thanks for the tip.

It is, but on the other hand, I would prefer to have plastic display with two inputs (since I have two computers; desktop and laptop) than aluminum one with just one input.

5K displays are very limit set in the first place. There is Studio Display, LG Ultrafine 5K and Samsung ViewFinity 5K. Samsung seems to be better value than Studio Display.

It was a response to Youtube playing stupid games with demonetizing and changing thresholds for payouts; they thought, that they can push creators around. They were wrong.

So what gives you a right to download and use the software in the first place? The copyright law forbids that by default. What permission other than the license do you have?

by vetinari 2y ago
It is right in the license.

A few more datapoints, of course completely unscientific, because why not: | Firefox | Chrome | Safari | Edge =====================|=========|========|========|======= Intel 1360P (Ubuntu) | 16.6 | 19

16.6 in Firefox, 19.8 in Chrome (Ubuntu 24.04, both browsers in flatpak).

Still can be heard, but it is not so annoying as it was. The fan noise is, how to describe it, softer? Comparing nuc7i7dnke to nuc13anki7.

I have i7 NUC13 mounted on a back of monitor and I can barely hear it. It's not that bad, previously (NUC7-era) it was much worse.

So get a stronger one. There will be always something that is better on one or another side. I have 13th gen i7, with 64 GB RAM and 2 TB ssd (and 2.5 GbE). It was 800 EUR + VAT, last year. How much would similar Mac Mini cost? Not a fair co

by vetinari 2y ago
NUC 14th gen with i3 is around 400 EUR with VAT, with no RAM or storage. For the other 250 EUR, surely you can get more RAM than 16 GB and more storage than 256 GB.

Any reason why not running transcription locally? Whisper is pretty nice and can spit out timestamped srt or vtt.

While Linux does have stable syscall interface, unlike other OS-es, you still want to go through glibc. At least for NSS, otherwise your app could be broken. Golang has CGO_ENABLED=1 as the default for this reason.

Climate change is a part of Earth's lifecycle. There have been ice ages, and there have been periods like jura, when it was warmer. It's all natural. What you probably mean is how humans influence this cycle; whether accelerating

DHCPv6 is also optional, clients do not have to support it; some do not support it intentionally. So for example, any Android device won't be up and running on SLAAC-less network.
