This has not been my experience. I've an Nvidia desktop and AMD HTPC, both running Wayland and a wide variety of games. What's more, they both do variable sync and HDR.

This and machines with 5090s are a completely different market.

The Steam Machine is marketed primarily as something sitting under your TV. I don't have 5090 under my TV money, 99.9% of people don't. That's not the target demographic.

Isn't the more obvious answer that the market research firm got their number wrong?

You could just use the last hyphen. It's not as simple since you need to scan the whole string, but it certainly doesn't seem like a challenge to me.

You mention in the article you have no direct reports. Who does engineering report into in that case?

You're confusing system efficiency and individual efficiency.

Same but with Forgejo and for the last 6 months.

If you think of it as a multiplier, even a small one, then Paul Erdos was just multiplying from a larger starting number.

I use 4 different banks, they all work with GrapheneOS.

Swipe input isn't the responsibility of the OS. Just install a keyboard that offers it.

Hey, I think everyone understands how they work by now and the pedantry isn't helpful.

Have you tried it lately? The webworker tech they added for the browser is almost definitely why this app exists at all.

Offline mode works in a browser tab too.

This is a little glib, you dropped "Entirely" because you know multiple first hand accounts are actually worth something. If you want to argue the credibility of those accounts, then please be specific about it.

Gamblers have lost their homes as a result of their addiction, I think that impact on their families counts for something.

I've been on LinkedIn a bunch lately while I'm looking for work. The cadence and "But here's what changed:" are extremely LinkedIn coded. I hope this is just an LLM and people aren't actually starting to talk this way.

I think you might be confused, there wasn't a linux-native version until yesterday.
