Keyboard shortcuts in general.

• Alt + left right (previous/next page in browsers)

• Windows + 1 (2, 3, …) on Windows and KDE focuses the window at that position in the taskbar

• Alt + Tab to switch windows (hold shift to go backwards)

• Windows + Tab to switch windows within the same application (like, all browser windows if you’re in a browser)

• Alt + 1 (2, 3, …) on Windows/Linux usually selects the corresponding tab

• Ctrl + Tab to cycle through tabs like Alt-Tab does for windows (hold shift to go backwards)

• In most browsers or things with a URL/go to bar, Ctrl+L will focus that. No need to click the address bar, Ctrl+L, example.com, Enter.

• In Discord and Slack, you can press Ctrl+K to open a box to quickly type a channel/DM name to go to it quickly

• If you have them, the Home/End/PageUp/PageDown keys are actually pretty useful. Press Home instead of scrolling all the way back up.

• F1 is usually help

• F2 is usually rename

• F3 is usually search

Ubuntu 7.10 so late 2007, but I guess the nerd part came when I installed Arch in 2011. Still running that very same install.

Gotta condition americans to the norm of guilty until proven innocent early!

And hopefully ad blockers too.

My own personal example: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux4noobs/s/8FM1ZvXi68

It just doesn’t look great nor serious nor welcoming.

The guy gives a ton of “I don’t care about anyone’s use cases except mines” vibes too. Also called Gnome and KDE teletubbies DEs when I mentioned xcomposite being an important feature. Basically considering the widely known issues around multimonitor vsync and mismatched resolutions and all as basically not real issues with Xorg.

XLibre is 100% a political fork because the guy claims Xorg is deprecated by a big tech conspiracy pushing inferior software onto users. There’s nothing wrong with wanting to continue Xorg’s legacy but come on we don’t have to pretend Xorg is this perfect thing that always works. Xorg has been hated for decades for a reason. This xkcd exists for a reason: https://xkcd.com/963/

Why though?

We can just subscribe to the community on lemmy.ml, there’s no point reposting when it’s already there ready to federate.

It was made back when Facebook had that old style UI, in 2010. And then interest in Facebook’s format kinda died, and so did the interest in the project.

Í wonder if visualizing what you read slows people down.

Not really, I can read very fast too and also visualize it at the same time, like full blown movie. I think it’s more indicative of information processing abilities in general: I can generally keep up watching lectures at 3x speed and notice things on screen almost instantly too.

I’m super efficient at filtering information too: I’ll look at a paragraph in some documentation and immediately see “If you’re in X special case, then…” at the 5th sentence in the middle of the paragraph when skimming through documentation. Or of course skipping details I don’t care about.

I consider this one to be my public/serious account, so, eh why not, it adds a face, a personnality. And I think I look cute on it. Due to the origin of my nickname, it’s realllly not that hard to find out who I am. Facebook ruined the anonymity aspect a decade ago, so I just live with it. And it’s a little bit more recognizable than just the username. For anonymity I have alts.

It has some downsides though, like people telling me I look like I got my dick chopped off. I’m cis, my dick is perfectly intact. Come on guys it’s just hair dye lol.

Tesseract and other clients kinda do:

Then it’s not the GPU, as it doesn’t appear to be using it in the first place.

What’s the rest of the hardware? Tried disabling hardware acceleration and see if it makes a difference?

I had more in mind like an AM3 platform with an FX CPU, or equivalent old Intel platform.

Really starts depending on what you run on that GPU, like it’ll render Furmark just fine at full tilt but a modern open world game will probably struggle with asset pop-in and stutters because of both bandwidth and the CPU not issuing draw calls fast enough to keep up with the GPU.

If it’s PCI Express (as opposed to regular PCI), then it pretty much should work.

What may happen however is that the slot will run at a slower speed, so if you put a 5090 with a Core 2 Duo you will struggle to keep the GPU fed with enough data to fully load up the GPU while your CPU is pegged at 100%.

It’ll run though.

EDIT: You can also have issues with the legacy BIOS and your newer card not shipping a BIOS ROM to initialize it on boot, but once it gets into the OS it should activate. If you have an iGPU it should output there until the OS starts.

Ideally, socialism isn’t just “the government provides for your needs”, it goes the other way around too. The point is to come together, pool resources and combine our strenghts. There’s no free handouts, you give and you receive.

You shouldn’t have to enforce a birth rate cap if the population understand that they need to match society’s capacity to expand and build the infrastructure. You’d announce the recommended number and danger number, and people would organically organize to on average make it, knowing their large family could lead to famine.

The main problem here is

If all basic needs were met (food, shelter, and medical)

That part does a lot of heavylifting there. People only play nice all together when society is working for them, people need to respect the society they live in. When scarcity happens, people become selfish, it’s survival of the strongest, and everything falls off the rails and naturally goes to capitalism and hoarding resources. The population cannot lose faith in the system.

The graph suggests it started declining well before AI became mainstream. I’m sure it accelerates it, but it had already long peaked.

Maybe, just maybe, most of the big questions have been asked and answered already.

These days when I look something up it’s been answered like 8 years ago, and the answer is still valid. And they aggressively mark questions as dupes, so people aren’t opening too many repeat questions.

It wouldn’t surprise me if it’s interpreted similarly as “Microsoft Word proficiency” in recruiter speak, which really means, are you able to type a letter in it and hit the print button.

The most I would expect is maybe finding your way in a shell, to run a render on a beefy server over SSH or something like that. Some familiarity and the will to learn is probably good enough.

I think P2P has stood the test of time. Torrents scale extremely well, any large scale video would have so many peers the server wouldn’t have to participate at all. These days most torrents easily saturate my gigabit connection no problem with just a handful of peers. Torrents tends to spread like wildfire.

The main issue would be storage space, but I think a lot of YouTubers would be perfectly okay with spending $5-10 a month to pay for the storage costs with all the benefits you get from not being tied to YouTube’s ToS and policies. It’s a drop in the bucket compared to the earnings from sponsor spots.
