EDIT: Alright, this is a terrible case because the parent element has flex and therefore no inline-flex is necessary there, but I’d argue it’s the parent element being flex that is redundant, rather than child element being inline.

Chromium is a superior engine, yes. But Chrome itself, at least in my eyes, looks to be the least capable browser out of the bunch. I’d rather Vivaldi if I had to switch.
Huh, neat. The last time I looked, chrome was also plagued by this. Might actually re-start some projects I had, but it sucks to have to use chrome.
inline-flex
is indeed necessary since we’re growing left to right and flex would take the entire/fixed width, unless it’s also inside a flexbox.
Sure. Here you go. The green container should cover all red boxes in both cases. I’ve been bashing my head against this issue for a while, but, as far as I understand, this is a bug that’s never going to be fixed. Which sucks, because I wanted to re-design some of the apps in the horizontal metro-style scrolling manner for the bottom screen on my zephyrus duo, but this effectively prevents me from doing so (Unless I use grids and set positions manually).
It’s 2024 and flexboxes still don’t work that well with vertical direction and wraparound…
I’m appalled that classes representing visual styles are still a thing. I thought everyone already figured that it was a bad idea back in bootstrap days. But then I recently had an opportunity to work on project that uses Vuetify and saw quite long poems about flexboxes in class names…
This ‘compress’ everything is such a waste of CPU and energy. Plus “oops, all your files are gone, tee hee”. GZ everywhere is fucking stupid. More complexity for zero benefit.
- CTO at my previous company
I know a place where they still do this. They’ve got an 8-digit user count, 7 digit monthly profits, all running on one server that costs something like $20 a month. They’ve downsized a few years ago to single-digit employee number and just sit there and collect profits. And this is why I’m now working for a company that casually dropped a few grand for a glorified CPU usage meter and a few grand on top of that for deployment tool that does the same thing that the old guy at a former place was doing with his trusty FTP client.
Is logitech still not allowing you full customization with presets saved on mouse itself? I’d expect that from the cheapest noname 5-button mouse on the shelf, not logiteck, I thought they got their shit together already given how much praise they usually get.
I was about to say the same, but then I remembered that I’m ignoring any business that use WhatsApp or Instagram as their sole means of communication. Fuck yeah I’m a petulant teenager, it’s their loss, not mine.
Feels lonely, most of all. I don’t fear the cops or ex-wagners I walk past every time I go to the store. It’s the radio silence in once popular channels whose owners were “disappeared”, and friends either in exile or too scared to even go out, that makes me feel devastated.
I’m more of a medovukha kind of guy, but yes, indeed, we do. Thank you for saying this
This is by far the worst take I’ve seen on the topic. Sorry for being rude, but it sounds like you haven’t touched a computer since that last time in 1990.
Power management is a joke
Surprise, it’s 2024 and windows will obliterate the battery even after you turn off the machine.
There no way even possible via the GUI to config power management for things like low/critical battery conditions /actions.
There is, though it’s via dconf, but it’s justified as it’s a thing few people would want to tweak.
Open an Excel spreadsheet with tables in any app other than excel
Sounds like an excel problem to me
Tables are something that’s just a given in excel, takes 10 seconds to setup, and you get automatic sorting and filtering, with near-zero effort
I don’t use either, but I’m pretty sure filter views are available in libreoffice calc. Open source DB’s and Access? What are you talking about, exactly?
Now there’s that print monitor that’s on by default
The what now? Are you talking about CUPS daemon? systemctl stop cups && systemctl disable cups
. Enjoy your 2.5megs of ram back at a cost of not being able to print anything. Now try and do that on windows without bricking your system.
and can only be shut up by using a command line. Wtf? In the 21st century?
If you insist on needing a GUI, go ham. But don’t you diss the command line. Being able to do things without GUI is anything but a con.
Yea, samba works, but how do you clear creds you used one time to connect to a share, even though you didn’t say “save creds”?
That’s notoriously a windows problem, not a linux one. You must be misremembering it
Oh, you have a wireless Logitech mouse? Linux won’t even recognize it
Not recognize it like, not being picked up by xinput, or not even listed in lsusb? I haven’t ever heard of non-class-compliant mouse. Is that something to do with the G-Hub thingamajig? If so, that’s on logitech, not linux.
My brand new wireless mouse works on any version of windows since 2000, at the least, and would probably work on Win95
No, it won’t. If linux didn’t pick it up without a driver, then win95 won’t either. And it’s even worse in reverse. I have a bunch of old hardware that won’t ever work on modern windows because the last drivers released are for WinXP, which are not compatible nor even portable to subsequent versions. All of them are plug-n-play on linux, though.
Linux doesn’t even use a common shell
Huh? You mean the desktop environments? The shell is a thing very few people ever care about.
If it were 40 years ago, maybe Linux would’ve had a chance to beat MS, even then it would’ve required settling on a single GUI (which is arguably half of why Windows became a standard, the other half being a common API), a common build (so the same tools/utilities are always available), and a commitment to put usability for the inexperienced user first.
The overwhelming majority of systems are either in GNOME/GTK or KDE/Qt ecosystem, unless you really know what you’re doing and want to go with something completely different. But even then, there’s a lot of re-use or re-implementation of components from one or the other. It’s great to have this choice. Sure, it can be a hassle if components from one don’t play nice with another. But then, you’re comparing it to windows, that uses components from 3 distinct eras, that don’t really work together either.
My 2c:
Crypto, however, has no such backing. If Bitcoin goes away for some reason, all you’re left with is essentially digital trash
It’s crypto’s weakness and it’s power is that it’s not and cannot be regulated. It acts as a protection against malicious regulations. Of course, it does bear numerous risks and should be approached with extreme caution. But I can literally remember the seed phrase and go through dozen of checkpoints and criminal neighborhoods without any risk of losing any of it, even if they rob me completely naked. It is safe as long as I’m alive and of sound mind, and probably wouldn’t really care anymore if I’m not. As far as I know, there’s nothing else in the world that could offer such a security level.
The content behind the NFT, whether it’s artwork or whatever, isn’t locked. It’s actually the opposite of locked, it’s publically available on the blockchain, by design
There’s not even a guarantee that the content stays up. The receipt just points to some content on some server. Or to ipfs, but ipfs isn’t magic, if there isn’t anyone on there hosting said content then it is gone. Same problem, but a lot less probable, is that if all nodes on the blockchain go offline, then the NFT itself, along with all currency, is gone.
Pump and dump, for those unaware, is where you artificially inflate the value of something making it seem like a really good deal so everyone buys it, raising demand and prices, then the people who generated the hype dump their investment, cashing out when the value is high, and making off with the money while the value of the investment tanks
Ideally, in a perfect world without hype and idiots, this would be a guaranteed losing scheme. Because to “dump”, you’d have to have someone who is ready to buy. If people don’t buy, then the perpetrators would have no option but to take the hit themselves. I heard this was the case when somebody managed to short logan paul’s shitcoin immediately after the pump. There should be less hype and more of that, and more frequently.
There are two types of people: those who had their money stolen by the government and those that did not.
UPD: Screw gamblers and shills, though, with that I can at least agree.
That’s the closest one so far, actually.
You can press alt-w though to only show full word matches
Haha, nope. The links points to a table of contents after which you are on your own. The right link should point to a specific page instead, but the problem here is that postres docs are poorly optimized for search engines. If you click on the top link from google, you would see there’s a notice that the page is outdated, with a link to a current version, but said link is dead. It’s not an issue I’ve ever experienced with mysql docs for example.
And yes, w3schools, despite how terrible it is, is still above the official docs because it is more popular with newbies. I remember a time when I just started, I preferred sites like it, because they were simple and on point, rather than technically correct and comprehensive like the official docs are. If you forgot the feeling, try learning math on wikipedia (assuming you don’t have a math degree).
For the rest I cannot argue. Generated/AI shit is indeed ruining the internet and search engines giving up and joining them isn’t helpful either.
Web developer here. The problem here is not with emails but with change.org’s business model, which is reliant on lying to people that their petitions actually mean anything. But, anyone with half a brain cell can easily spot that they don’t have any legal backing whatsoever nor do they do any kind of identity verification, therefore those petitions are completely worthless. They might as well not give a fuck and allow cheating. For all they care, it only boosts counters and makes them appear more popular than they actually are.
I was under impression that his last sentence was for his founding role in ACF which was deemed extremist organization for made up connections to Tatarsky’s bombing, which would make that a terrorism change. But as a refresher I’ve looked up, and in reality they’ve been designated extremists for participation in elections, basically. The official case states that the foundation’s goal was to stage a coup in fashion of Orange Revolution. And now with it, they have a case to put everyone who’s ever been in contact with ACF in prison for 6 years, which they actively exercise. It’s a complete sham, such a corrupt government should not exist in a modern world.
