    If you have an NVIDIA GPU CachyOS performs significantly better at the moment, so I would go with that. For AMD GPUs it's more of a preference question. Personally for dev work I t…

    I think the mercurial log is not doing us any favors here, most of the first few pages is the history of the `quic` http/3 support branch which indeed Maxim is not working on. Scro…

    Don't think Source ever won out, Global Offensive was the game to dethrone 1.6. At least in our "semi-professional" neck of the woods CS:S adoption was 30% at best. A clear majorit…

    This is literally what the AI does as well. It didn't walk into a bookstore and steal all the books off the shelf, it read through material made available to it entirely legally. T…

    Working for a pretty big corporation (20000ish employees), the reason for this I hear from our IT/Workplace Services team is that Apple laptops actually integrate with the existing…

    Counter argument is service providers just choosing to block anything that looks like Firefox since the market share is so small and it's being used to circumvent their precious pr…

    Except you can't just invest it all into renewables and expect to have a stable power grid, the equation isn't quite as simple as "avg_power / $ capex". Last analysis I saw of this…

    While true that the current situation is pretty far detached from the fundamentals, it's not 100% speculative. GameStop just named Ryan Cohen and 2 other execs from Chewy on the bo…
