Unfortunately, GTK is much prettier than QT.

When I went to college the dot was used for the dot product (scalar product) of two vectors while the cross was used for the cross product (vector product) of two vectors.

Since in this case numbers (read: one-dimensional vectors) are multiplied, the dot product is used, which should be denoted by a dot.

(But really, if I were to write a formula in Latex I would just use the * symbol, too.)

Do not climb.

Play on and around pipe.

Which China is already working on and are as far as test flights.

Of course the US and China both have some kinds of stealthy fighter jets. That does't mean that China has what the US has (or will have).

Or does "next-generation" have a specific meaning, other than "better"?

I was working with Argon2 hashes, so it was the first thing to come to mind.

whatever you need to justify killing a pig

I don't need any justification for that lol. I wouldn't care if people ate dogs either.

I was just pointing out a traditional norm that people usually don't eat carnivores (because they are more prone to disease and are much less efficient to farm).

Dogs and cats are carnivores. We don't eat carnivores in general, regardless of domestication.

The only odd one out are horeses, who we don't eat in spite of them not being carnivores.

Huh, odd. I never had these issues, even though I use an Nvidia card with a VRR monitor. All my peripherals (webcam, printer, bluetooth earbuds) work out of the box, too. But maybe I'm just lucky.

If being ready means "runs Windows applications" to you, then obviously Windows will always be the best choice.

Like, what a metric lol

Next you're gonna tell me MacOS isn't ready either, because you can't play many Windows games on it as well

Complaining about hardware compatibility on Linux while Windows 11 doesn't even support first gen Ryzen CPUs is crazy.

Windows 11 doesn't even support first gen Ryzen CPUs. The amount of hardware that runs Windows 11 without tinkering is a tiny fraction of the hardware that runs Fedora Workstation without tinkering.

Linux is much better with drivers and hardware support than Windows. Windows only works well if you use the very small subset of hardware it supports.

And then they would have removed them later. Just like all the statues of Adolf Hitler, which no longer exist.

We only learn about the ones with defects, because they are the most interesting. Most people in history were fine.

One historic figure who had no known defects: Alan Turing

If left wing policies were truly more popular, why didn't the Democrats win? The voters didn't get Bernie, so if you can't get your ideal option, you instead take the worse of the two remaining ones? Even if voters were only voting for damage reduction, they'd still vote Democrat in that case.

But the Democrats didn't win. The voters don't want damage reduction. The voters want damage.

Another upside is the easy permission management.

You can revoke network access from your password manager to reduce attack surface; you can revoke camera access from your chat app to prevent accidentaly enabling it; You can restrict an app's file system access to prevent unwanted changes; etc.

It's not yet fit to protect from malicious apps, but it still finds some use.

If the vast majority of Americans believed the Democrats to be less evil, the Democrats would have 90% of the vote. If that were the case, the Republicans would move ever further left, perhaps even overtaking the Democrats, until they get a chance at winning again.

The reason the parties are right wing is because the voters are right wing.

That's why we need a communist revolution where everyone will be a happy little comrade

The reason that people don't vote Democrats is the same reason that people won't join your revolution.

If you found enough people to support a revolution, that'd mean you have enough people to change the system by simple voting.

Eh, the AfD has always, and still does, represent some extreme positions that the CDU is still far away from. Remember that the AfD was founded as an anti-EU party, a position they still hold. The CDU has only really copied the AfD when it comes to migration. Otherwise they are still very different.

Even the Merz CDU is left wing compared to US democrats. Remember all the social programs we have, for example public healthcare.

Context for the non-Germans: The CDU has led our government for 16 out of the last 20 years. The CDU leading is not a significant shift. But the pressure that's being put on by the AfD is certainly an issue.

You can leave off your tinfoil hat; the surveys (by many different organisations) predicted this result fairly accurately.

Especially now with Blizzard moving their games back to Steam, running them on Linux doesn't even require tinkering anymore.
