Consider myself educated, thanks!

The cones are the colour sensitive portion of the retina, but only make up a small percent of all the light detecting cells. The rods (more or less the brightness detecting cells) would still function…

i really do like kde, it just works and doesnt’t get in my way! and there’s the fact that every update actually seems to improve the user experience is something quite astonishing in the current clima…

25 GiB for a single binary sounds horrifying at some point surely some dynamic linking is warranted

the :1 is short for :0001 basically and then just put that bit of the address at the very end and put the first bit of the address at the front, and then just fill each missing group inbetween with 00…

along those lines, I saw a video where a light strobing pattern from quake was still used in a section half-life alyx (with much better lighting lol) the fact the quake engine’s internals still live o…

What setting is there to make the tabs look better?

it’s a bit baroque but I use strace personally

it’s the current meaning he’s reciting he’s just adding etymological context

Unfortunately, the world is a complicated place and each one of these languages have their own benefits and tradeoffs that suit themselves to one particular language or another (ask an ML scientist t…

pretty sure the base minecraft rendering engine is still using opengl, and most of the improvement mods also just use opengl so exposing this extension to them is probably important to a game where it…

I mean Khronos put that in for a reason. If the drivers didn't get explicit information about the application being run, they would do silly heuristics like quake3 to squeeze out performance.

I know my own personal anecdote isn’t much, but I’ve noticed pretty good space savings on the order of like 100 GB from zstd compression and CoW on my personal disks with btrfs As for the snapshots, t…

This might not be directly about btrfs but bcachefs zfs and btrfs are the only filesystems for Linux that provide modern features like transparent compression, snapshots, and CoW. zfs is out of tree l…

Apparently those 195 recognized by the UN as well as countries like Taiwan. 203 in total according to the article.

Oh! So it’s like how there’s many Italian “dialects” that become less mutually intelligible the farther away you go?

what they’re referring to might be better put as applying a patch once and then running it 500 times until you get a benchmark thats better than baseline for some reason which is understandably a bit …

I don’t think the vast majority of people will have a good sense of how far away the standard gas giants and pluto are from the sun in terms of AU.

oh, I see now! that makes more sense when I reread it.
