Idiots in my company have started selling AI-generated predictions to government agencies. They admit they have no idea what the AI does.

How OS

Pretty much Qt. You can learn how different OSes have different way.

However, modern GUI programming is happening on the web and mobile phones. React is popular, but it's too high level and their XML-based approach is horrifically designed. Swift UI is nice, but it's Apple-only. Flutter is a good middle ground, but its Desktop capability is limited. You're going to shoot on your own foot several times.

Macs, or iTunes on Windows. There are two modes of a backup: actual one or backup in name only (like the names of the apps, I wish the latter fucks off).

Yeah. Frankly, if my company gets spied by MS it's their fault. I don't care.

Everything I put in my Teams has been accessible by my company anyway, and so I use that shit accordingly.

I'm Japanese and I can tell you they have no idea. The comic just makes no sense to me because of that. Most can't even tell the difference between the two parties. They can't even tell the difference between political left and right.

Pacifists fear Trump. Nationalists think Trump is a savior. That's all. They are both conservatives, by the way.

NotSUSE

Careful, Germans take it seriously.

Checkmate, I called the police.

As I indicated, please check (articles and the documentations of) font renderers at this point.

At this point I'm not expert enough to explain more details. You can check font renderers.

Below is what's in my mind but it's just a guess.

In typical PC architectures you have IO between the storage and the RAM, and then there's the copying from the RAM to the VRAM, and editors maybe also want copying from the VRAM to RAM for decoration purposes etc.

AFAIK it's the copy cost for the memory. GPU makes sense only when the hardware allows this copy to go away. Generally, desktop PCs don't have such specialized hardware.

Yes, but if they support Nazis,

So tired. These Nazis should be called out for what they are.

Therefore there is a real threat that the required majority for mass scanning of private communications may be achieved at any time under the current Hungarian presidency (Hungary being a supporter of the proposal).

Why did they let this Hungarian pro-Nazi idiot regime lead anything?

GPU-accelerated renderer.

There's a reason why GUIs don't render fonts in the GPU.

I can agree, but I MYSELF will pick a strong PW. So they better just fucking encrypt the thing, fucking please for the love of god.

by any process on the system

This IS bad. Btw they can ask the user to type the password rather than saving it in a plaintext. I can't believe comments on this thread defend Signal...

Poor workflow. Switching applications is horrible if you have 4 windows open in one desktop. Even gnome is far better at that.

You write like one can do stuff on Linux with one command.

However, Linux enthusiasts simultaneously tell the user to spend time troubleshooting problems on their own, and say that's a given.

It's a double standard I see on the web.

Optical discs were sold to businesses as a near-eternal solution. And then they do this... Are they serious?
