Yeah, I’m also one of these people silently enjoying systemd and wayland. Every now and then there’s fuzz on one of these. I shrug, and move on still enjoying both of them.

8·21 days agoSteely Dan. The worst part would be I won’t stop talking about the drum solo in Aja.
A big monitor with 100% AdobeRGB is going to be very very expensive. And if you want it to be 65", you just can’t find them…
And it is a monitor, meant to be watched from a close distance. It will not be such a great experience for movies and such.
1·1 month agoYeah, the perks of the Android ecosystem. There’s also a version for Android TV such as NVIDIA Shield. Again just works and filters out ads and sponsor segments.
I’ve been using this one for years, which filters out ads and sponsor segments:
Only for Android though. If you use iOS, switch to Android and you’ll also get a really Firefox browser with ublock origin that blocks all the ads compared to that 30something% what every iOS browser does.

128 GB here which runs out if I compile the complete project at work with -j32. And this sucks because 128 GB right now means the RAM cannot run super fast, meaning it is a bottleneck to any modern Ryzen…
A random hacker news comment. I’m in EU, where this kind of tracking is not legal, so I cannot validate…
If it is a Samsung tv, they have been automatically connecting to any open wifi, maybe your neighbor has one. And there goes the data.
Avoid Samsung.
We’ve been using Linear in my latest company and it is actually quite good. No bullshit fast UI, boards, issues linking with Git, a support that can take a feature request that is often implemented in a week or two after asking it.
9·2 months agoYeah. He is pretty horrible. What surprised me though is his daughter’s film company has a pretty solid track record on quality movies and tv series:

But yeah, Larry Elison sucks…
In my experience, nix works exceptionally well with Rust. Python and JavaScript are nastier, especially if the libraries use C extensions.
Musl can be a bit annoying compilation target sometimes. Usually it works but I’ve debugged bugs a few times that were due to musl target.
I prefer my distro with glibc…
But do not run Linux, the kernel.
3·2 months agoHis job is to not get the maintainers to agree, but his job definitely is to bark a bit if somebody behaves like Ted.
It might even be Rust is not meant for Linux kernel and it will never happen. Or it happens in the driver layers, but stays out from the core. We do not know yet. The concern Ted is raising is definitely valid: if the C APIs change, people who work daily in the C code cannot spent cycles fixing the Rust APIs. These people have their day jobs which pays them to maintain these subsystems, and it is at least not yet clear will these employers fund rewriting anything in Rust. There are tens of filesystems in Linux, with lifetimes passing around that are not documented and might not work in Rust.
Note: I’m a Rust dev for the past 10 years, and I follow this discussion with high interest.
Yeah. Isn’t it funny that the most popular file system in the world has such a codebase, and it is not even well documented how it works!
I have my reasons to choose XFS or bcachefs with my machines.
Not a sysadmin, but a programmer. My work machines have been:
Probably going to keep using NixOS. This is a very cool OS.
