All other things aside, which Logitech mouse are you talking about? Both my G Pro and my G 305 work out of the box. Logitech also advertises them as ChromeOS compatible and AFAIK the Logitech wireless dongles are USB HID compliant so seeing a Linux straight up refuse to interact with them sounds very weird.
I’d love to but on my gaming rig Wine/Proton will absolutely refuse to install the Visual C++ runtime, making me unable to play most games. On another, virtually identical, Linux installation it works without issue; in fact, I have fewer weird issues like a game randomly not connecting to EOS.
I consider it karmic justice for buying Nvidia; that’s the major difference between the two systems.
(Update: The latest Wine version seems to have fixed this. I’m certainly not complaining.)
How about autoscrolling shmups where you don’t die after every hit and get to upgrade your ship between missions?
The oldschool entry in this niche would be Tyrian – released in 1995, made freeware in 2004, then ported to modern OSes.
2004 was also when Jets’N’Guns came out. It looks more modern, has a quirky sense of humor and a badass metal soundtrack. It also has a sequel.
Both games can be found on your (PC) digital marketplace of choice.
When AMD introduced the first Epyc, they marketed it with the slogan: “Nobody ever got fired for buying Intel. Until now.”
And they lived up to the boast. The Zen architecture was just that good and they’ve been improving on it ever since. Meanwhile the technology everyone assumed Intel had stored up their sleeve turned out to be underwhelming. It’s almost as bad as IA-64 vs. AMD64 and at least Intel managed to recover from that one fairly quickly.
They really need to come to with another Core if they want to stay relevant.
I use interactive rebases to clean up the history of messy branches so they can be reviewed commit by commit, with each commit representing one logical unit or type of change.
Mind you, getting those wrong is a quick way to making commits disappear into nothingness. Still useful if you’re careful. (Or you can just create a second temporary branch you can fall back onto of you need up your first once.)
Or, if the team does allow refactoring as part of an unrelated PR, have clean commits that allow me to review what you did in logical steps.
If that’s not how you worked on the change than you either rewrite the history to make it look like you did or you’ll have to start over.
To be fair, he also had an eye for good product design. Not the skills to implement it but the ability to see whether a design is good.
Of course he expressed this skill by yelling at his engineers and designers. A lot. Because he was an asshole.
I have to disagree on one point – that iOS home screens somehow look more orderly because they’re full of icons arranged in a strict top-left-to-bottom-right fashion. It doesn’t look any less cluttered than an overly full Windows desktop.
I found desktops that limit themselves to core functionality and maybe a nice wallpaper to be better looking and more usable since the days of Windows 95 and that hasn’t changed since.
That “strict grid of icons” look certainly is uniform across iDevices and that’s what appeals to Apple but I never found it to be particularly attractive.
CUDA was there first and has established itself as the standard for GPGPU (“general purpose GPU” aka calculating non-graphics stuff on a graphics card). There are many software packages out there that only support CUDA, especially in the lucrative high-performance computing market.
Most software vendors have no intention of supporting more than one API since CUDA works and the market isn’t competitive enough for someone to need to distinguish themselves though better API support.
Thus Nvidia have a lock on a market that regularly needs to buy expensive high-margin hardware and they don’t want to share. So they made up a rule that nobody else is allowed to write out use something that makes CUDA software work with non-Nvidia GPUs.
That’s anticompetitive but it remains to be seen if it’s anticompetitive enough for the EU to step in.
“One of them is responsible for unspeakable atrocities and the loss of millions of lives. The other made some tweets that negatively affected stock prices. It’s hard to tell which is worse.”
I’m certain other judges will be stoked to see people cite this in future cases. “You can’t punish me because other people did similar things and aren’t part of this trial. Here’s an earlier case where the court has decided that way.”
The parliament has spoken against “chat control” as well AFAIK. The Commission, however, is probably still trying to find a way to eliminate privacy in whichever way they can.
Grip style. People grip their mice in different ways and the Magic Mouse really doesn’t work for palm grippers. For fingertip grippers it’s one of the most comfortable mice ever made; for everyone else it’s hot garbage.
That’s why I like my G Pro. I usually run it wired but if I want to travel I can just unplug it and stick the receiver in my laptop.
To be honest, the first incarnation of Spaces was really damn good; they deserved some credit for that. Then they made it worse so it matches iOS.
Compared to other languages it’s still very barebones – but admittedly some of the bloat is also because the JS world is kinda set in its ways. I still see people use jQuery for basic selector queries and SASS for basic CSS variables.
Another factor is that developers these days assume that users have fast unmetered connections. Loading 800 kB of minified gzipped JS from ten different domains is seen as no big deal. When the cost of adding piles of dependencies is considered nil there’s no impetus to avoid them.
I find it to be fairly similar. Most people I know either don’t care about VR or bought/borrowed a rig and ended up not using it much. It’s typically seen as kinda nice but not nice enough to really bother with.
In terms of interactivity, most see VR as little better than the Kinect – and that didn’t exactly take the world by storm, robotics labs excluded.
I think most people are actually happy with their regular screens so it’s hard to sell them on something that does more.
The amount of work actually doesn’t matter (except when it does; especially the EU may consider it). The specific wordings might matter but that’s not immediately obvious. A dictionary is at least close enough to mere database that its protected status isn’t automatic. The more selective the dictionary is the more obviously it is protected since the selection process is an expression of creativity.
Fake entries are definitely used in practice, most likely because they move the dictionary from “probably protected but the court would have to decide” to “definitely protected”.
