The service has been inconsistent and/or down for the last 12 hours..

Wish I could too. I ended up running Windows, Linux and MacOS. While gaming is getting there, tools in many many domains are still unsupported, e.g. Office, Adobe, Audio Production…

Last time I used Matrix for our internal team notifications were beyond broken and we moved to Zulip, verification and authentication were also very funky at the time, I don't dare…

What do you mean? There's 1 gigabit ethernet.

I tested three pieces of hardware with different chips: T480, X670E Taichi, USB Bluetooth dongle All worked better with Windows than Linux. It may depend but I hoped at least one w…

> Linux works great for gaming except some anti-cheat stuff which probably won't be legal anymore anyways in Europe under the PLD. I tried to have a gaming setup with Linux (SteamO…

I find the /usage command most interesting as it's giving you a % towards your limits and when they reset rather than having to note all of that down and guess when you'll hit them…

I did this a few months back and never looked back. Linux failed me in music production and gaming, while the latter isn't important, I have invested heavily in audio VSTs and it's…

What about other Emacs functions such as org-mode? Or did you never use them to begin with?

Kagi has been a great asset for the past year, their support team is phenomenal and responsive. The result quality is great and have seen co-workers eyeing the service because of w…

It is not just _running_ things that's the problem, authentication and authorization are massive, I've attempted to run various Audio plugins with Wine which either do not run at a…

The last 3 times I installed Windows 11 _and_ used an account were a nightmare as for some reason, Microsoft would disable my account for logging in during an install... I avoid Wi…

Clojure was not "popular new" to be "boring" in a way, but it is boring in the sense that it works in a predictable manner, I use it for backend and data analysis, just works.

Wozniak is incredible, it saddens me that SuperMemo will probably drift into obscurity due to being closed source and the chances of seeing its source code drift away day by day, i…

Unfortunately, they seem to have moved to a different vendor for payment processing in the past year or two and now I get "The product you selected is not available in your locatio…

A little too late for my team, we switched two weeks ago from Element to Zulip and the difference in communication is night and day. Features such as mentions, notifications and th…

It could be said that all it does is one task, interpret Emacs Lisp, thus simple

I have found Clojure to be fantastic to run a backend service that requires data analysis and processing. Currently I use Clojure as the backend to power iData[1], a website filled…

Sadly I'm moving back to Windows by the end of the month due to the lack of audio production software, the only area where WINE, virtual machines with USB passthrough fail.. I'll s…

> Do people really dual boot a lot in 2024? Yes. > there is virtually zero overhead in using VM nowadays Not for real-time audio production. The state of audio plugins having Linux…

I have a 7950X which I run in Eco mode with air cooling and it's amazingly quiet when not under load and rips when it needs to, I don't see a reason to upgrade any time soon.
