    Everybody knows that all sins are forgotten with each new election cycle. Watch him coming back to the benches next year. He will not even apologise.

    The companies announced their plan in July last year, with the new facility to be situated next to STM's existing plant in Crolles and targeted to reach full capacity by 2026, with up to 620,000 wafers per year of production at a size of 18-nanometers.

    Why Perl?

    It's a dependency of a lot of things, including git, lxc, GNU autotools. Check the Required By on the Archlinux repo.

    So annoying when you run into an interesting project and you realise that the only documentation is a link to Discord.

    Great and fun co-op, but it's long term investment.

  • Whats a game that everybody seems to love that you cant stand for one reason or another?
  • fouc fouc 1y ago 100%

    It's relatively a lot, maybe midpoint wasn't entirely accurate, but I'd say 25ish at a casual pace. As I said I was just about to give up myself but I was pleasantly surprised in the end. Fantastic game.

    I felt RDR2 had extremely slow start, but after the midpoint the game opened up and it evolved into an excellent experience. Well-written, well-acted. Glad I kept going even though I had the same initial reaction.

  • State of Wayland gaming with Nvidia RTX? Is it good, or stick with Xorg?
  • fouc fouc 1y ago 100%

    With recent drivers and recent enough DEs it is usable to a certain extent. There are some known issues documented in the release notes of each version. Here's for 535. TL; DR the major blockers are: (1) Variable Refresh Rate doesn't work for some cards; (2) GAMMA_LUT is not implemented (no night light) and (3) Nested X11 clients have synchronisation issues that might result in some flickering or dupicate frames, it's more noticeable on things that refresh slowly, although much better recently. Also (4) NvFBC capture doesn't work with nested X11 clients which might or might not be important for some people.

    I'm using it with Plasma; it's OK, no major concerns but my setup is pretty basic.

    Probably a good incentive to sell Game Passes, at £8/mo you can play for 7 months before you reach retail price.

  • Desktop GPU Sales Lowest in Decades: Report
  • fouc fouc 1y ago 100%

    Can't really talk about AMD but NVIDIA are at a position to drop every other model except for the x90 without major repercussions. Hell they can even go full enterprise selling these A1000 at a ridiculous profit margin. For NVIDIA at this point the gaming GPU market is just a "good to have". Artificial segmentation in VRAM aside the chips are just too good to service the consumer market so they might as well sell them for silly money. They don't particularly care about selling the gaming GPUs because they aren't losing anything not doing so

  • FFmpeg Adds Support For Animated JPEG-XL
  • fouc fouc 1y ago 100%

    Apple will add support for JXL natively on the new macOS/iOS. Adobe suite added support recently. And yet Chrome decided to kill JXL before there was even a chance of gaining enough traction. This effectively kills any chance of widespread adoption of the format, which is a shame because it looks like it has a decent featureset. I really like that you can reencode the same picture with effectively no quality loss.

  • BTRFS maintenance with SSD's
  • fouc fouc 1y ago 100%

    Set up fstrim to run once a week or so and scrub your disks periodically. It will not fix any errors unless you have a RAID but it will still tell you if there are any corrupted blocks. If you delete large blocks of data you might want to rebalance every now and then. You really shouldn't need to do maintenance on a filesystem.

  • A good calendar app to use with syncthings ?
  • fouc fouc 1y ago 100%

    Use something that supports CalDAV and use a sync app (DAVx5 for Android, for example). This will need a computer that hosts the calendar, something globally accessible running radicale or a similar caldav/carddav server. If you can't host it yourself email services typically also provide CalDAV access. GMail used to provide CalDAV endpoints, not sure if they still do. Fastmail provide CalDAV calendars, but it's not free.

  • Reddit insists on being “fairly paid” amid API price protest plans, layoffs
  • fouc fouc 1y ago 100%

    It's never been about the API. Third party apps are undercutting Reddit's as revenue. They could never ban the apps outright so they set an obscene cost for API calls to indirectly kill them. They have probably factored in the potential loss of users already and it probably ain't much.

  • do you think the fediverse could replace popular social media
  • fouc fouc 1y ago 100%

    Unlikely. When users left Digg for Reddit the internet was smaller and the users more technically minded. And even then it was essentially just creating a new account. You need an one stop solution for users to migrate and federation by definition isn't that. As a result discovery (and growth) is still hard even for Mastodon that's been around for a while and it's a relatively mature platform.
