My money is on MusX

It’s not really emulation. It’s running on the same architecture and most of the windows libraries can be used as is with mostly only the win32 library that needs to be wrapped. That already existed for years as wine. It’s mostly graphics and peripherals that are broken.

The most important thing proton added to improve gaming was a DirectX translation layer that translates to Vulcan and also loads of fixes and additions to wine.

Not a lot of games run faster but apparently in some situations, the Vulcan precompiled shaders seem to run better than native windows, although that probably means they could make their native version better as well. For older games, the Vulcan translation layer is a lot more efficient and faster than native. Also CPU and IO heavy games might run faster on the Linux kernel.

No, the html file itself. It just contains elements like a paragraph, image, list, table,… just like a word document.

A word document can also contain a script, as can html pages. It’s why I thought these two were the closest match. Nobody is going to call those programming languages.

A PowerPoint, word document or even a text file or picture. There is only a description in the file of what it holds and it’s up to the program that reads it, how it will visualize or interpret it.

A word document or PDF would be the closest.

I think it’s fair to say those brands will source from the cheapest, scummiest places and it doesn’t matter what “certificate” sticker is on the box.

But it is so hard to avoid them where I live :/ Even the fairtrade, vegan and responsible green washed products are from those 3…

Even WWF doesn’t think avoiding palm oil is a good solution. Not short term and definitely not long term

Palm is the most efficient crop for producing a wide range of fats. Replacing it with some other source of fat will require more land and water, and disrupt nature in another part of the world.

IMO they should just remove the equality operator on floats.

They also couldn’t call it “.Net Core 4” so they called it “.Net 5”

Will they keep skipping numbers or start thinking about not naming everything the same.

I use it to open the spell checker options while I’m typing. It’s annoying to have to switch from keyboard to mouse. My current laptop doesn’t have the key and I even added another short key.

The super key, again, is useful so you don’t have to switch between keyboard and mouse when searching for an app. It is also the modifier for all GUI shortcuts.

Depends on the grid. If the lines and transformers are already used close to their limit, more smaller buffer batteries and smaller solar installations, closer to the user, could be more efficient and not require grid adjustments. The closet to the user, the less grid adjustments are needed.

Industrial roof solar should be standard in any new building by now. Companies need the power in the day and it can be used without even needing to use the grid.

There is pCloud which is based in Switzerland which has mostly the same regulation as the EU. They specifically state that they won’t use your data for commercial purposes. Until the company merges or gets bought I guess.

Ofc if it’s not end-to-end encrypted and all open source and self hosted, you can’t really be sure.

That is true. I do think we should retire pure ICE cars as soon as possible. If you need to do long distances, a hybrid that could be converted might be a good intermediate solution. If you only need a car sporadically, a car sharing platform with electric cars is a good solution. These already exist in big eu cities. Ofc good and adorable public transport is nr 1.

Decreasing the amount of cars would decrease emissions short and long term more than the current shift to EV and would make shifting easier as there are just fewer to replace.

A Prius will definitely pollute less than the typical SUV electric cars on a coal grid.

Cause:

• Efficiency of coal power plant and all losses are as bad as ICE cars. The EVs do thermal->mechanical->electrical->grid->battery->wheels and if you count them all up, is not better than an EV
• Prius is designed for low drag unlike an SUV
• Prius had regenerative braking like an EV

But just the numbers:

• Prius is rated at 94g/kg
• Coal 950g/kwh
• Volvo c40 0.2kwh/km or 190g/km even without losses

I took Volvo cause they published a report with a good compare ev and ICE https://www.volvocars.com/images/v/-/media/market-assets/intl/applications/dotcom/pdf/c40/volvo-c40-recharge-lca-report.pdf

Even with the current EU energy mix, it takes 77’000 km to be better than ICE, so arguably better. On coal electricity, they are worse. And this is comparing equally sized cars, a Prius will do better.

Coal power plant efficiency is less than 40%. You’d also not get 90% of the outlet on the wheels. There is also a lot of loss on the grid, but there is also on the production of fuel. The two pollute almost the same.

Burning coal however is a lot worse for the air quality.

Most places all fruit flavored pop are called lemonade. Where I live even mint and coke can be called that.

I don’t think I’ve ever had real lemonade, only sprite.

I think the 1.91 also includes the stream deck, but for some reason it isn’t included in the list (it is included if you select only Linux). It is about 5.5x Arch so around 0.8% of the total installs.

So the discontinue versions are around the same number as Linux desktop installs.

They already have their SteamOS, which has 43% of the Linux market share on Steam (I guess almost all Steam Deck)

https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/Steam-Hardware-Software-Survey-Welcome-to-Steam?platform=linux

SteamOS isn’t included in the combined numbers, but comparing it to Arch which is only 0.15% of steam, the deck is <1% of the total.

I actually quite like the read only incremental update model of SteamOS combined with flatpak. It makes the OS a lot simpler and I rarely ever change the OS much outside of apps that I can install in home or with flatpak. And if you have special hardware, you are probably already looking at other distros anyway. There is enough choice.

It’s that capitalization is language dependent, which email addresses shouldn’t be as I hope the rules for France shouldn’t be different than for Dutch. For instance é in Dutch is capitalized as E, but in French it is É. The eszett didn’t even have an official capital before 2017

In most programming languages, case-insensitive string compare without specifying the culture became deprecated. It should imo only be used for fuzzy searching doubles, which you probably will do with ToUpper for performance reasons, or maybe some UI validation.
