    I played with it for 10 minutes, very impressive. Couldn't get vscode to work, will try again later with different apps. (vscode is not that important anyway as it has a remote mod…

    I might be mistaken, but both need a physical monitor turned on. If your monitor goes to sleep you can't connect/see a black screen. The kde one doesn't support remote user login, …

    Fair enough, I probably wrote most people just as an automatic phrase when it should be "some people"

    The maximum battery save mode on Samsung (or maybe on all android devices?) does just that - you can set the limit on which apps can be opend. Turn the display to greyscale. Homesc…

    I kinda miss that in the early 2000's kde and gnome shipped with a fuck ton of window decorations based on all those (then-not-so) old OS. Teenager me had fun switching them every …

    Very very strictly speaking relying on models in it's essence is not the problem I think. There is enough "meat" there you can build a nice small profitable company. Those tools ar…

    groq is a series E hardware startup founded in 2016. It took them this long to be a potential threat, I'm not sure they are even an actual threat. Even if this purchase causes 100 …

    It should work if the library was compiled with deceleration map option. Which most libraries are not and it's a shame. It was added like 3 years ago which was probably a bit too l…

    The best ”algorithm” for discovering new music was digging through profiles on last.fm back when the social functions of the site were still active. Sure, it was a lot of manual wo…

    I'm using it for a hobby project, and pretty pleased. My personal maybe somewhat "stubborn old man" opinion is that no node.js orm is truly production quality, but if I were to con…

    2003 me thought Wine is a dead end project and a waste of developer time. Granted valve put a lot of effort into Proton but they wouldn't even have considered it without the massiv…

    Css in js was like a fever dream that lasted 2-3 years and seems to mostly go away. It's a good example as to how the frontend world just seems to make bad decisions. Like if you t…

    Look I agree but one can also manage with an always on pc and an external hard drive instead of a homelab. It's part hobby part learning experience. Also if you have kids 0-6 you c…
