Touhou 4 arrange ~ BAD APPLE!!

Just because I can, LOL.

Then reject it.

EDIT: I accidentally thought it was written on another thread.

I want SimCity 4 that wouldn't crash. Even better if it was libre.

Windows 11 installation requirements in Crown English:

• 27 bloats of free space in the hard disk drive;
• 1⅔ bloats of RAM;
• Processor with at least of 60 milliard beats per minute clock rate;
• ...

The true solution is... build from source.

V A P O U R W A V E ! ! !

I don't like animations, smooth transitions, smooth scrolling, rounded boxes and needless notification on the corner (unless it's a chatting app).

There can be inner shadows/colour gradients. It depends.

I liked how clean was Windows 9x design. Embossed buttons, same font family for design everywhere.. Pop-ups didn't have to 'fade in', just instantly appeared on the screen instead.

...in a galaxy far away...

I used to use Arch Linux. It's really good, honestly, especially if you want to know how the OS components work from inside or make something custom. For anything else, I would recommend Debian and its non-snap-based derivatives (Linux Mint Debian Edition or Tuxedo OS, or KDE Neon).

IDK, I used to have a dedicated software for playing with CUDA. Most of the image-specific AI stuff from the internet require 8 GB of VRAM or more, though.

Nowadays, I don't feel the need for GPU-accelerated computing, though. If I needed, I would write Vulkan compute shaders for that thing.

Damn. You go me first. I will complement:

"Lįsti į akis" (to get into eyes): To annoy other person.

"Arabus pūsti" (to blow Arabs): To tell fairy tales (to lie).

There are programs (LyX, TexMacs) that implement WYSIWYG for LaTeX, TexMacs is exceptionally good. I don't know about the standards, though.

Another problem with LaTeX and most of the other document formats is that they are so bloated and depend on many other tasks that it is hardly possible to embed the tool into a larger document. That's a bit of criticism for UNIX design philosophy, as well. And LaTeX code is especially hard to make portable.

There used to be a similar situation with PDFs, it was really hard to display a PDF embedded in application. Finally, Firefox pdf.js came in and solved that issue.

The only embedded and easy-to-implement standard that describes a 'document' is HTML, for now (with Javascript for scripting). Only that it's not aware of page layout. If only there's an extension standard that could make a HTML page into a document...

Sleeping over alarms? That's easy to fix. One should attach an electrode to his body and charge the capacitor on the other end of the wire. The capacitor is powered by a battery on one side, just to keep the capacitor charged. Then, in the middle of the wire, there's a relay/transistor that passes current at 3AM, the control signal is sent by an Arduino or something else with a clock. It will pass through the body a short electrostatic discharge needed to shock the body that would be painful but not causing any injury.

Not an electrician. This may be useful, but without warranty.

Gzip is slower and outputs larger compression ratio. Zstandard, on the other hand, is terribly faster than any of the existing standards in means of compression speed, this is its killer feature. Also, it provides a bit better compression ratio than gzip ^{citation_needed}.

Yes, but only if everyone adhere to CommonMark version of Markdown.

Markdown, CommonMark, .rst formats are good for printing basic rich text for technical documentation and so on, when text styling is made by an external application and you don't care about reproducible layout.

But you also want to make custom styles (font size, text alignment, colours), page layout (paper format, margin size, etc.) and make sure your document is reproducible across multiple processing applications, that the layout doesn't break, authoring tools, maybe even some version control, etc. This is when it strikes you bad.

Open Document Standard (.odt) for all documents. In all public institutions (it's already a NATO standard for documents).

Because the Microsoft Word ones (.doc, .docx) are unusable outside the Microsoft Office ecosystem. I feel outraged every time I need to edit .docx file because it breaks the layout easily. And some older .doc files cannot even work with Microsoft Word.

Actually, IMHO, there should be some better alternative to .odt as well. Something more out of a declarative/scripted fashion like LaTeX but still WYSIWYG. LaTeX (and XeTeX, for my use cases) is too messy for me to work with, especially when a package is Byzantine. And it can be non-reproducible if I share/reuse the same document somewhere else.

Something has to be made with document files.

The appearance of facial expression in the wall is similar to that.

Looks very similar. Sauce

I wanna watch Mr Bean now
