The point of a terminal like this isn’t necessarily to have more features. I have the tabs turned off (I also just use tmux). The point is to render smoothly and look/feel nice.

Some people would rather spend a lot of money on a nice pen. It still is just a pen that writes. No additional features over a 25 cent Bic pen. But the smoothness of the writing, the hand feel, consistency of line thickness, etc… to some people that matters. No extra features, it just looks and feels a bit better… But if all you are doing is writing a grocery list, you may not care. And if you don’t care, you aren’t wrong. This just doesn’t apply to you. If you don’t have a reason, you don’t need to find one. It’s just not applicable.

But some people do care. They do have a reason. And they are also not wrong to care. Their reasons just may not apply to you because you have different workloads or priorities (or maybe they do, and you just haven’t realized that it’s a thing you care about)

I think this just happens to fall under the category of “some people care about milliseconds of rendering time, and some people don’t.” I don’t know if the GPU acceleration has anything to do with it, but this terminal emulator also has really good font rendering.

If you are happy with your current terminal emulator, continue using it. If you heavily use your terminal emulator for a lot of things and in some things you’ve found that it stutters a bit, and you wished it was a bit smoother, get a GPU accelerated terminal emulator.

And secret bonus option: Even if you are happy with your current terminal emulator, give it a try anyway. Ghostty has a “zero configuration” policy where their goal is for most people to never need to configure anything. Sane defaults. It’s a good out of the box experience. Give it a few test drives, and if you’re still perplexed about why you should care, then maybe it’s just not for you and you can switch back. If you go “that was pretty smooth, i dont have a reason to switch back” then maybe you’ll think about it differently.

I was using alacritty. Ghostty feels snappy like you said. I dont know if it’s “noticeably” faster in any meaningful way. but the out of the box config settings make the font rendering look much nicer than I had set up for alacritty.

I told myself “I’ll use this for a while” as well but then realized… I don’t actually have a reason to change to anything else. It gets the job done. So until some other new shiny thing comes along, this is probably where I stay for a while.

This suggests you can go to about:config and set devtools.toolbox.host to bottom for the toolbox.

However, it also suggests that the Parent process toolbox you are looking at can’t be docked.

It’s possible the one you saw before was the Web Console (Ctrl+Shift+k) which is docked by default. On that one, there are a couple of icons on the right side to re-dock either on the bottom or side of the tab content. I don’t know whether it is possible to dock the Browser Console.

Try using Ctrl+Shift+K to open the console for a specific window/tab (this one should be dockable) instead of Ctrl+Shift+J, which opens a console for every window/tab combined (so can’t be docked to a specific window/tab)

(Also who downvoted me for being the only one to even attempt to offer a solution, geez. Makes people not even want to try to help.)

The ... menu in the top right has an option to pick where the toolbox is docked.

Some games can detect if they are running a VM and block that as part of their anticheat. You may not be able to get roblox or fortnite running in a windows VM.

Some games just flat out require actual Windows, so your options are “Have an actual Windows drive/partition” or “Just don’t play those games”

I believe the number is now closer to $110k and even then you are one major hospital visit from being back on the problems train.

The trick is to make more money, but don’t live like you do. Just save the money. And then be able to retire young with millions in the bank

The hard part is that point moves. I have very few problems. And insurance covers some things (supposedly). But if my spouse died and I suddenly had to throw child care into the mix, and changing my schedule to be the one that takes them to/from school… I could easily wind up where new problems form. I thought I had enough money, but I only had enough money for the specific circumstances

I would never buy Jade. I always buy snsv laptops

Science isn’t anti-god either. It’s just pro-knowledge. Observable, testable, verifiable knowledge.

This part. If ghosts are observable, testable, and verifiable, then we would have a way of measuring things. Maybe ghosts are 4th dimensional entities. It’s very possible they are real and it’s purely something we haven’t been able to measure thus far.

Science gets stuff wrong all the time. The point of science is to be adapting and learning. And part of that involves verifying credibility of a new source of information.

Unfortunately, almost all of the sources of “proof” of things like ghosts are heavily biased in favor of proving things over disproving, and there are a lot of people throwing clear scams into the mix. Science needs to go in with an open mind. “I want ghosts to be real, and the wind moved this door, therefore it was a ghost” is not valid proof of ghosts.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WohbNt18wNs Things like this. A pastor that can walk on air, which is clearly fake. If the pastor believed he could walk on air, why would he fake it. This is not proof that people CAN’T walk on air, but it’s a great example of why when someone claims they can, you should figure out why lying about it benefits them (this guy clearly wants more people to tithe to his church).

GotG benefits from the default being “GOD!” for all things, because it leaves them in power. Science has no benefit from anything except the truth. Sure there will be liars in science as well and a lot of people will optimistically want to believe the lies if they sound nice, but looking at things like LK-99, it winds up disproven when it’s a lie. Capitalism and industry don’t care about your fake superconductor. That doesn’t benefit them, they only care about real superconductors.

If something can “transcend” the laws of nature, then the ability to do that is part of the laws of nature, and thus it transcends nothing. We just didn’t know all of the rules.

If ghosts are real, then they aren’t breaking the rules of nature because clearly the rules of nature allow for ghosts, we just don’t understand how yet, but then ghosts are natural.

By definition, anything real is natural, and anything supernatural is not.

The cofounder of sticker mule went real hard on trump support this past year so I’ve just done without stickers.

Getting bit by a venomous snake in Australia and you’re blood starts to disassemble itself. The only counter is antivenom or die. Your blood breaking down is what kills you. And there is no way to separate the bite from that.

Being able to counter the venom in such a simple way is what makes it different. You can logically break it down into steps that are separable.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as a Gull, is in fact, Sea/Gull, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, Sea plus Gull. Gull is not an categorization unto itself, but rather another component of a full identity made useful by the kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species components comprising a full identification as defined by its scientific classification.

This would drive teenage me crazy, fr fr on god.

Sometimes games ship updates that mess with the game. I have over 20,000 hours in WoW. But my play habits from over almost 2 decades ago don’t reflect the current quality of the game.

And some people compulsively play games they don’t enjoy because “once I get to the next thing, it will finally be fun!” And maybe this person had an awakening and realized that they will never get there… Or after this amount of time had a drastic change of heart.

And some people leave games open when they aren’t playing.

I’m not saying this is normal or necessarily healthy, but it’s not unfeasible.

It isn’t just about ungoogling things though. Having a monoculture in the browser space means that if Google makes a push to favor ads, say by removing certain extension support from their browser engine that everyone uses, then the entire internet suffers. It is effectively a monopoly.

Mozilla tries really hard sometimes to be unappealing, but there is value in not just letting Google have full control over the internet.

Because otherwise if you have too many small letters in a row it stops looking like a plural and more like a misspelled word. Because capitalization differences you can make more sense of As but not so much as.
