You need to post it around 9pm EST or it will never gain any traction. And it's been discussed here at least a couple of times already.

I was thinking about MS-DOS and NT 3.51/4.0. But yeah, Windows 9X was terrible in this regard. I never liked it.

Steve Ballmer intervened!

It generates different writing even if you choose the same style.

The most important part: > Last week it was exactly 2000 days (5.5 years) since I have taken over MPC-HC development, so a good time to finally make the bump to version 2.0.0.0. Donations are appre…

It's funny in 2004 he mentioned that filesystem and registry are a mess. In Windows 11 they are an absolute mess. Thousands upon thousands of files/directories scattered all around the syste…

I used it briefly over two decades ago and I stopped for one single reason: it requires screen estate, it's an actual window. Meanwhile my task bar is visible at all times.

IF you find a way to reproduce this issue on another device or using any online service (I've tried two and both said it looked perfect), I'll check it out. Actually you're the only use…

I've tested it in Firefox development mode using Samsung Galaxy S20 as a mobile device and it looked fine. Google Mobile Tester doesn't report any issues either: https://search.go…

My hardware often works literally for over a decade. If being frugal and taking care of your devices is "antiproductive" for you, I'm a little bit concerned but it's up to you anyw…

BTC donation button was posted for two years - zero people donated. And if we're talking about hard cash, nothing for Russia works nowadays AFAIK. Patreon certainly doesn't work: https:…

I completely flushed system buffers prior to getting the results (echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches), so the free RAM that I posted is indeed absolutely free yet it cannot be re…

I cannot imagine my life without systray, sorry. At the moment I have a metric ton of apps in it (I use pretty much all of them): * System Volume * CPU/Wi-Fi module temperatures * Clipboard manag…

That's `free` -> `used`, not RSS for individual processes. You can download the source images which include `top` output if you're interested.

Fedora results are somewhat bloated given the presence of packagekitd but since all the spins run it, you can still make valid conclusions.

If we go down this route no comparison will ever be "valid". That's why this is strictly for Fedora 37 as of December 11th, 2022. :-) If you have your own distro resuts to share, I will…

LMAO. Yeah, an average HTML page nowadays without graphics and built-in fonts is easily above 500KB considering all the embedded JS and CSS.

True so yet all of them have the same/similar background services/daemons/applications, so the comparison is still valid though it will be distro-specific. I cannot physically test all …

> Take just one example, system tray. AFAIK in X11 there was one http://standards.freedesktop.org/systemtray-spec/systemtray-... . Wayland however doesn't have an API for…

"Fedora" is mentioned prominently in the comparison. Not sure if I could do more :-) Could you show the top output for your distros? I wonder why there's such a huge discrepancy.

> You interact with your DE whenever you create a window, switch to another, press the Super button, right click on the desktop, get a popup notification, hit your media keys, and in a decreasing w…

Delphi produced quite bloated code. I remember a default Delphi application with 0 lines of actual code showing nothing but an empty screen compiled into something like 300KB circa 2000 all thanks to …

Considering we have many dozens of distros and ten of thousands of their permutations (different "spins", desktop environments, etc.) this test is always going to be distro specific. I chose…
