But the privatized prisons are local businesses too, right?

I’m more concerned with Mozilla spending its meager resources to chase some fads instead of focusing on improving firefox.

Google does that a lot with their own web properties. I remember Google Meet didn’t support background replacement on Firefox, but switching Firefox’s user agent to Chrome suddenly fixed it.

It seems Mozilla is not immune to the AI hype. I just hope their AI endeavour won’t kill them when the AI hype finally ends.

It used to be a lot slower, which is why when Chrome showed up with its shiny new V8 engine (and other features) people switched from Firefox en masse. Now the performance difference is no longer noticeable.

the tests are now larger than the thing itself

The purpose of the code is to make the tests pass.

Maybe, maybe not. Who knows. Not everyone will switch to Linux, but those who do must be introduced to it somehow. My first experience with Linux 18 years ago was very painful yet I eventually made the switch a few years later.

Let him go back to Windows. You already planted the idea of using Linux in his head. Next time he gets tired of windows for any reason, he knows there is an alternative and he’ll consider switching to Linux on his own.

They usually have a read only channel where the devs post how-to’s and tutorials. You know, something that could’ve been put into a wiki or documentation site instead.

Virtually all of new projects created after certain years. Younger devs prefer setting up a discord server first than setting up a documentation site/wiki. I feel old.

Kids used to spam hadouken and kamehameha to each other back then. Not sure what kids these days do though.

I’m truly torn with this. The first one seems sensible (action -> target) and easier to read and reason about (especially with long names), while the other one looks more organized, naturally sortable and works great with any autocompletion system.

Generally yes, but keep in mind that apt packages are maintained by canonical, while snap packages could be maintained by canonical, the apps’ original developers themselves (e.g. Firefox snap is maintained by Mozilla), or a 3rd party unrelated to canonical or the app’s developer (i.e. random dudes packaging apps into snap and submit them). If the snap packages are not maintained by canonical, there is nothing stopping the snap packagers to use a different versioning scheme, though it’s unlikely. In general, it’s a good idea to check the package entry on snapcraft.io to figure out who packaged them so you can decide if it’s trustworthy or not.

Transreflective lcd doesn’t look great though, especially when viewed at angles, or when the room is bright enough to light the reflective layer but dark enough to require the backlight.

Ah sorry, I got it backward. Nvidia is dragging their asses on implementing “implicit” sync, so Wayland devs and nvidia ended up with a compromise and implemented the explicit sync protocol. IMO it’s just another example of Nvidia doing whatever they please and forcing everyone to do it their way or highway.

Unlike AMD and Intel, they don’t get along with the open source community well and generally do whatever they please, which is why they earned the ire of many linux developers. For example, they’re really dragging their asses with implementing explicit sync.

Heck, Japanese manufacturers even sell $15K EVs in Japan (e.g. Nissan Sakura) but they don’t seem to be interested in selling them elsewhere.

They’re probably marketing this as requiring zero infrastructure changes to attract buyers and investors. Just put the pod lifter at the end of the track and it’s done.

Are you living in the same country as those that complain about ads in windows? From what I understand, this is not rolled out globally yet.
