SDL is kind of the equivalent to DirectX. It provides a standard interface for multimedia applications regardless of underlying mechanisms. Except the 3D acceleration part I think which is handled by OpenGL / Vulkan.
I hope Kent behaves, bcachefs is been working well for me on latest kernels and I'd hate to see it removed entirely.
The tooling needs some more love as well (e.g. there's currently no rebalance) but I understand the focus on the kernel bits. Recently added a drive (or rather a decrypted partition) and everything went smooth. Other places are also suspiciously quiet about bugs, in a good way.
I've never done shrooms / psilocybin. Only acid and 2C-B.
But looking at common dosages for it, I don't think I would have understood the concept of an office on 100 mg. That is about 6 times a normal dose.
However, I would never think of wasting a good trip at the office. Seems like a double negative
EDIT: the dosages were referring to the chemical psilocybin, as that was what the post I replied to used. It was not about 0.1g of shrooms. Also mushrooms come in different strengths, depending on a lot of factors, including the species itself. Sorry for any confusion
Realtime is not about being fast, it's about time guarantees. It helps with or is required for workloads that require realtime, which I think includes audio production, but might also be helpful for things like controllers etc. where you need to make sure incoming data is processed in a guaranteed time or else fail. Browsing the web isn't part of these, so an RT kernel will most likely be a hindrance.
Which term isn't used by "capitalists" to deceive you?
Most "capitalist" products here use refined grain. Almost no brand uses whole grain. For comparable products, the price of whole grain vs refined is basically the same.
Whole grain is a term used by capitalists to deceive people. The skin of grains is called bran.
If the skin or bran is part of the grain, including it makes the grain whole. Hence the term "whole grain". I'm sure the term was in fact not invented by capitalists. I think originally, refined grain was seen as the more luxurious alternative; at least here, it was associated with higher status for a time.
If smart people love libreoffice, then I must be dumb. Working with it always seems weird and I never like it.
Fortunately, I can use LaTeX for work; it is far from without issues but while being arcane sometimes (especially when tables are involved), it never really upsets me and the result looks very good. I can say neither for libreoffice or MS office. But at least the former doesn't charge for the experience.
I hope typst gains more traction; it seems really intuitive compared to TeX and you don't necessarily need a macro package. And while it doesn't produce the quality of TeX-based systems yet, it is already good. Then again, Knuth's goal first and foremost goal was quality (and it shows); the system just had to be usable by him.
It never states that they had these in their birth years. Just that they had them. Might have been in the 2020s with the Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut, which is the fastest car and was built in their lifetime. And coincidentally, currently the fastest in my lifetime as well
I need to spend a weekend tracking down and installing the linux binary for that game.
It came on disc. As for patches, there were Linux-specific patches. When I tried some years ago, the game worked after deleting / remaining some shipped libraries and replacing them with system ones. Though today, Wine might be a better choice. I think the Windows version supports OpenGL as well so there's no need for DXVK.
My opinion : far too many distros are « pet distros »
I think those are actually great. Personally wouldn't use them for a prolonged time or anything critical. But I love the spirit, even if the distribution is of no use to me.
Insurances need to cover their expected cost with the rates, otherwise they won't be able to cover in case of an incident. Nobody will run an insurance expecting a loss, and you can't force anyone to.
The alternative is like when we had flood that the state bails out the boomers who bought houses when they were cheap in areas where insurance won't insure because of risk, paid with taxes by people like me who have a hard time acquiring property because taxes and other cost are so high due to decisions their generation and earlier ones made.
Of course, this is somewhat exaggerated; they also pay taxes. But it's also not completely wrong.
In the particular case of a previous colleague's house getting flooded, I always had to think of the fact that she chose to fly a certain route for work to save about 2 hours because it's just so much more convenient than the train.
I mean it would have happened with it without her flying, but still thought about it.
