Not sure about multiple monitors

Most usb-c ports with DP alt mode support up to 1 monitor at 4k@60Hz, or 2×1080p@60Hz, and I believe 2×1440p@30Hz. It comes down to bandwidth, so I think that as long as you’re fine with one monitor running at a slower refresh-rate or lower resolution, you can have your primary screen displaying in high-res.

Of course, you have to also take into consideration the GPU performance, running higher resolutions will usually degrade performance!

I think more and more browsers are spoofing their UA to pretend that you’re using windows, for fingerprinting resistance

imo, that’s why flat earth stuff usually doesn’t make sense at its core. how do you explain that all those governments from around the world that hate each other all collectively agreed to lie to you

well, the point of flatpak is to have bundled dependencies so they run predictably no matter the distro

if one of your software’s dependency gets updated, and your software isn’t, you may run into issues - like a function from the library you’re using getting removed, or its behaviour changing slightly. and some distros may also apply patches to some of their library that breaks stuff too!
often, with complex libraries, even when you check the version number, you may have behavioural differences between distros depending on the compile flags used (i.e. some features being disabled, etc.)
so, while in theory portable builds work, for them to be practical, they most often are statically linked (all the dependencies get built into the executable - no relying on system libraries). and that comes with a huge size penalty, even when compared to flatpaks, as those do have some shared dependencies between flatpaks! you can for example request to depend on a specific version of the freedesktop SDK, which will provide you with a bunch of standard linux tools, and that’ll only get installed once for every package you have that uses it

“AI” today mostly refers to LLMs, and whichever LLM you’re using, you’ll likely face the same issues (wrong answers creeping in, tending towards mediocrity in its answers, etc.) - those seem to be things you have to live with if you want to use LLMs. if you know you can’t deal with it, another rebrand won’t help anything

it sure seems like it though

i mean, they’ll never replace system package manager, but for desktop applications, flatpak is honestly quite good

gotta respect the grind

wow is me, i am le surprised

to be fair, some people deserve to be called assholes

this?

i mean, the main issue is that theologues base their beliefs on the belief that some old texts hold universal truths

according to the github readme, you can just run sudo pro config set apt_news=false to disable those

if you have things set up the way you like on xubuntu, it’s maybe worth it to just do that rather than start fresh

huh, here you only need the other account’s IBAN

i mean, celsius has arbitrary numbers too - human is 37°c, ambiant is 17°c, cooking is 180°c, etc.

iirc, postgresql renames itself in htop to show its current status and which database it’s operating on

how so?

huh, yeah, i heard of similar things in the US

here it seems to be worked out through legislation though, rather than private deals, but that means it’s much slower to get set in place

i hate it when they only give out A20 exam sheets
