I really wanted to do some mapping, but in all places I lived it was already fully mapped

Anything containing WebGL and anything containing complex CSS/JS animations comes to mind, also Canvas (even though it rarely used, still lags like a motherfucker), Firefox really suffers in that regard, but they recently promised that they will fix it; and I remind you that because of hardware decoder legal ussues Firefox sucked very hard at 4K and 120 Hz YouTube on Linux for a long time too

There are others, commonly created because Firefox focuses on privacy, and so, for example, all internal website timers can only count by 0.1 seconds because anything less will open you to tracking vunerabilities, often settings sacrifice performance for data safety like this

I would rather use Snap than Docker

Fuck Docker and their bullshit pricing schemes

It very highly depends on the application

For something used daily that’s more or less true

For something that needs very complex configuration like specific ffmpeg transcoding rules and cmake build files - you’d have menus that are 5-10 pages long and full of super detailed selections and forms, while in reality you’d only want to switch on or off one thing, so it would be easier just to write the command

When I made my small game engine I had a second window full of settings that I could change dymamicaly. After like 2 months of work it was so full of settings it was very hard to navigate even with all subdivisions and layouts properly made

Also, GUI apps often lack specific or new settings for the terminal app they’re built on

Chrome defaultism, and so websites are usually made for Chrome, often disregarding testing on Firefox completely, and so they work a bit worse here and there

Also no Google connectivity

Singleplayer on the left, multiplayer on the right

Wikipedia is really bad at explaining things, it’s written in a way that you have to deeply know all of the surrounding topics to understand what is going on

I used to think that it’s too hard to set up a suspension on a car because the Wikipedia pages are all weird and undescriptive, but it turns out it’s very simple for something like a double wishbone, there are even visual calculators out there

That’s pretty cool, I like watching GT endurance races, but I gueas no invite no play

Funnily enough, they still make them, both on steaming platforms and on CDs, swear to god there’s one on my nearest Tesco’s shelf

What’s on Racing4Everyone? Steams/videos of motorsports events? Racing games?

Broken clock moment

They probably meant that GNU holds half of the Linux desktop usage, and Chrome OS the other

You can set up your printer in the same area you work in (if you work from home), and audio fire alarms can be used

My father used a web camera and a remote controlled solid state power relay on his tabletop CNC that he locked away in a separate room so he can look after it

I’m pretty sure it’s either a myth (that it doesn’t work) or some US-centric thing, because when I worked as a delivery guy, I used to go through probably hundreds of different elevators in high-density residential buildings, and most of them have doors that stay open very long to allow baby strollers and heavy appliances to be placed inside, and on pretty much all of these the door closing button works, immediately closing the door

This is what I and many other programmers have done (not the removal, but fake delays), because it improves user experience, actually:

1.When the user clicks a button that should take long in their mind (like uncompressing a zip file etc) but is actually fast, it might seem like something is wrong and it didn’t work

2.When the user transitions between layouts of the application, if it loads everything too fast it will look too abrupt, a fake delay will be made here if a transition animation is not possible/doesn’t fit

The source is satire

Used it every day when delivering, because there was much more detail than google maps, so I could actually see where fences and gates are. Used Waze to drive and OSM to walk.

Mechanical keyboard. Almost had no money back then, but wanted to treat myself. It costed 100$, and I regretted it the next morning. Felt like shit, but it was so cool to type on.

After 5 years, this metal-frame keyboard managed to survive many outside gigs, long travels, literal war, and it’s still with me. And I still love typing on it. Sometimes I code just to type. You can guess why I don’t use code completion tools.
