Looks a lot like Gnome. Is Cosmic a gnome soft fork or just a skin with plugins?

It might be something built using digital payments with no transaction fee (and a percentage for currency conversion)

Not possible globally, but in India and the Nordics, such standards are already in use. (No private apps like venmo which can’t inter-operate don’t count)

Without context this link is just bad. Plant growth will not reduce CO2 levels because biosphere is temporary store or carbon (since it is a part of the carbon cycle)

We are putting carbon (into the atmosphere) that was previously buried. So putting a tiny bit of it back into plants doesn’t help because:

• those plants will die and release the carbon back
• the number of plants added is inconsequential compared to the deforestation
• the number of plants needed to offset additional carbon is humongous

Yup. Intel can boost significantly higher than base clock

Intel CPU do outperform AMD in several workloads, but on the top end, AMD seems to have the efficiency advantage.

If AMD lost in some, they outperformed in many more metrics by large enough margins.

This trend was true in past 2 gens (price and efficiency advantage with an overall perf advantage in power limited scenarios). Nothing to astroturf about it.

The weird part would be if someone is comparing a zen2 with 14gen and still sticking with AMD for “some reason”

At some distance, we can no longer see the stars or even the galaxy. A supernova will allow us to see in really distant past, maybe at the first generation with some really good lensing.

Think ereandel but older

Isn’t this a year old news?

Tokio has support for multiple threaded async in rust. As for micro controller, I don’t think you can have multiple threads in flight anyways, so that’s the best you’ll get

Which language? Usually there’s a thread pool where multiple tasks are run in parallel. CPython is a special case due to gil, but we have pypy which has actual parallelism

X code is convoluted, so much so that the maintainers didn’t want to continue. AFAIK, no commercial entity has put any significant money behind Xorg and friends. Potentially unmaintained code with known bugs, unknown CVEs and demands for permission system for privacy made continuing with Xorg a near impossibility.

If you don’t want new features and don’t care about CVEs that will be discovered in future as well as the bugs (present and future), then you can continue using Xorg, and ignore all this. If not, then you need to find an alternative, which doesn’t need to be Wayland

Oh, and you might need to manage Xorg while other people and software including your distro move onto something else.

So yeah, “xorg bad” is literally the short summary for creating Mir and Wayland
