My money is on MusX

I start writing the implementation and get the “variable not defined” error and then let the ide add the declaration. It’s less keys to press and misspell.

I do like subtites almost everywhere, but hate these slides.

Maybe I also want adjustable playback speed, fast forward and readable high contrast subtites in my real live playback.

It’s not really emulation. It’s running on the same architecture and most of the windows libraries can be used as is with mostly only the win32 library that needs to be wrapped. That already existed for years as wine. It’s mostly graphics and peripherals that are broken.

The most important thing proton added to improve gaming was a DirectX translation layer that translates to Vulcan and also loads of fixes and additions to wine.

Not a lot of games run faster but apparently in some situations, the Vulcan precompiled shaders seem to run better than native windows, although that probably means they could make their native version better as well. For older games, the Vulcan translation layer is a lot more efficient and faster than native. Also CPU and IO heavy games might run faster on the Linux kernel.

About D, you could also be programming robots, PLC’s or thermostats 🤷‍♂️

No, the html file itself. It just contains elements like a paragraph, image, list, table,… just like a word document.

A word document can also contain a script, as can html pages. It’s why I thought these two were the closest match. Nobody is going to call those programming languages.

A PowerPoint, word document or even a text file or picture. There is only a description in the file of what it holds and it’s up to the program that reads it, how it will visualize or interpret it.

A word document or PDF would be the closest.

I think it’s fair to say those brands will source from the cheapest, scummiest places and it doesn’t matter what “certificate” sticker is on the box.

But it is so hard to avoid them where I live :/ Even the fairtrade, vegan and responsible green washed products are from those 3…

Even WWF doesn’t think avoiding palm oil is a good solution. Not short term and definitely not long term

https://wwf.panda.org/discover/our_focus/food_practice/sustainable_production/palm_oil/

Palm is the most efficient crop for producing a wide range of fats. Replacing it with some other source of fat will require more land and water, and disrupt nature in another part of the world.

IMO they should just remove the equality operator on floats.

Other package managers, like nuget, throw errors if all dependencies on a package cannot be met by a single version.

This is probably the result of it copying all libraries in the same output directory and that .net cannot load 2 different versions of the same library so more an application restriction.

The downside of this is that packages often can’t use newer features if they want to not block the users of that library and that utility libraries have to have his backwards compatibility so applications can use the latest version while dependent libraries target an older version. Often applications keep using older versions with known security issues.

They also couldn’t call it “.Net Core 4” so they called it “.Net 5”

Will they keep skipping numbers or start thinking about not naming everything the same.

I use it to open the spell checker options while I’m typing. It’s annoying to have to switch from keyboard to mouse. My current laptop doesn’t have the key and I even added another short key.

The super key, again, is useful so you don’t have to switch between keyboard and mouse when searching for an app. It is also the modifier for all GUI shortcuts.

There is pCloud which is based in Switzerland which has mostly the same regulation as the EU. They specifically state that they won’t use your data for commercial purposes. Until the company merges or gets bought I guess.

Ofc if it’s not end-to-end encrypted and all open source and self hosted, you can’t really be sure.

That is true. I do think we should retire pure ICE cars as soon as possible. If you need to do long distances, a hybrid that could be converted might be a good intermediate solution. If you only need a car sporadically, a car sharing platform with electric cars is a good solution. These already exist in big eu cities. Ofc good and adorable public transport is nr 1.

Decreasing the amount of cars would decrease emissions short and long term more than the current shift to EV and would make shifting easier as there are just fewer to replace.

I put very minimal calculation which at least puts it around the same order and linked a report by Volvo where they try to count the whole cycle of a car with the emissions of the production and transport of used parts and fuels.

On current electricity mix, an electric car is only slightly better on a CO2 emissions. With only renewables, it can be 2x better.

But the statement that in China it’s at least better than a Prius is just wrong. Until renewables take a serious share of the grid, a smaller well engineered hybrid is not worse.

A Prius will definitely pollute less than the typical SUV electric cars on a coal grid.

Cause:

• Efficiency of coal power plant and all losses are as bad as ICE cars. The EVs do thermal->mechanical->electrical->grid->battery->wheels and if you count them all up, is not better than an EV

• Prius is designed for low drag unlike an SUV

• Prius had regenerative braking like an EV

But just the numbers:

• Prius is rated at 94g/kg

• Coal 950g/kwh

• Volvo c40 0.2kwh/km or 190g/km even without losses

I took Volvo cause they published a report with a good compare ev and ICE https://www.volvocars.com/images/v/-/media/market-assets/intl/applications/dotcom/pdf/c40/volvo-c40-recharge-lca-report.pdf

Even with the current EU energy mix, it takes 77’000 km to be better than ICE, so arguably better. On coal electricity, they are worse. And this is comparing equally sized cars, a Prius will do better.

Coal power plant efficiency is less than 40%. You’d also not get 90% of the outlet on the wheels. There is also a lot of loss on the grid, but there is also on the production of fuel. The two pollute almost the same.

Burning coal however is a lot worse for the air quality.
