What Taiwanese technology? Name some.

Intel is building fabs, TSMC is moving away from Taiwan due to the geopolitical risks.

Which brings us right back to my point. They aren’t wizards, they are simply benefiting from the enormous government investment into the extremely expensive chip manufacturing industry.

Their manufacturing efficiency is top tier, their government built facilities are top tier. However they weren’t first, they aren’t the only ones who can produce them and now that the US is interested in chip manufacturing again the new facilities will match TSMC in a few years.

nanometer is a marketing term now and doesn’t reflect actual sizes. Samsung were first with “3nm”.

America was doing “3nm” in 2018. You don’t seem to have any understanding of this issue.

From Wikipedia:

The term "3 nanometer" has no direct relation to any actual physical feature (such as gate length, metal pitch or gate pitch) of the transistors. According to the projections contained in the 2021 update of the International Roadmap for Devices and Systems published by IEEE Standards Association Industry Connection, a 3 nm node is expected to have a contacted gate pitch of 48 nanometers and a tightest metal pitch of 24 nanometers.

Also from Wikipedia:

South Korean chipmaker Samsung started shipping its 3 nm gate all around (GAA) process, named 3GAA, in mid-2022. On 29 December 2022, Taiwanese chip manufacturer TSMC announced that volume production using its 3 nm semiconductor node termed N3 is under way with good yields.

In early 2018, IMEC (Interuniversity Microelectronics Centre) and Cadence stated they had taped out 3 nm test chips, using extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUV) and 193 nm immersion lithography.

The machines are Dutch and the designs are made by the customer. The Taiwanese advantage is their government subsidised chip manufacturing. They aren’t wizards.

My understanding is darktable is the foss Lightroom.

Your chosen GNU/Linux distribution installs the applications.

I’ll have to look into it. I think my fstab is still referencing ntfs-3g.

Found this:

Note: All officially supported kernels with versions 5.15 or newer are built with CONFIG_NTFS3_FS=m and thus support it. Before 5.15, NTFS read and write support is provided by the NTFS-3G FUSE file system. Or you can use backported NTFS3 via ntfs3-dkmsAUR. Paragon Software, the author of the kernel module, has not yet released userspace utilities for NTFS3. You can use NTFS-3G userspace utilities without NTFS-3G driver via ntfsprogs-ntfs3AUR.

Isn’t NTFS-3G required anymore?

Nothing better than Google and Microsoft sniffing your traffic.

Lutris is great, I use it myself.

However, if you have a friend fresh from Windows who already uses steam and you say, tick compatible proton 8 or latest and click play vs install new software and then add the game you’ve already lost the easy battle.

Not true, steam makes it incredibly easy. Install steam, tick compatibility option, install, click green play button.

What bad do they do?

So the first one is a wolf that can walk. Second is a fish that can swim. Third is a bird that can fly.

I’m saying a bird can walk and fly. Why have the wolf?

Birds can walk

We need national laws for all real estate.

• Houses to be advertised with a price
• Sold prices must be provided against sold listings
• rentals to have a floor plan and total size
• body corp listings must list body corp and sinking fund details, minutes to meetings and bylaws.

The best kind indeed. You’re a good human.

What’s the best way to get it?

In February 1998, approximately one year prior to its acquisition by AOL, Netscape released the source code for its browser and created the Mozilla Organization

Google Founded September 4, 1998

Mozilla, Gecko and what everyone now commonly refers to as Firefox predates Google.

Edit: you’re technically correct of course, however I wasn’t about to complicate my reply with Netscape, Mozilla and Gecko history when the OP I was replying to was saying Firefox was built on Google Chromium.

Incorrect dukk. Firefox isn’t built on Chromium, Firefox predates google let alone Google chromium.

The Server Name Identification (SNI) standard means that the hostname may not be encrypted if you're using TLS. Also, whether you're using SNI or not, the TCP and IP headers are never encrypted. (If they were, your packets would not be routable.)
