70 year old management member who came up with the idea of using this metric in the first place:
“The system shows you haven’t touched your mouse for half an hour.”
“Yes, I worked out a solution on paper, like back in the old days.”

“Jingna Zhang @ cara.app/zemotion @zemotion So freaking speechless right now. Seen many @vercel functions stories but first time experiencing such discrepancy vs request logs like, this is cannot be real??”
Independence day was indeed a great movie. Who would have thought they also use X86 architecture?
Are you… Are you saying EVERYTHING can be hacked with one line of code?
Back then, when I wanted to watch a film, I checked Netflix first, then amazon video. I only reached for other sources if it was unavailable at both. Now there are way too many platforms to pay for, and they are getting way too shitty to pay at all.
There was a time when I was even feeling good going “clean”. Now everything is dirtier than I ever imagined.
It’s really competitive of them trying to knock Putin off of the top of the charts.
You can turn off stuff that the programmers allow you to through a settings menu (that they wrote), configuration files (that they make their program to read) or fiddling 3rd party stuff that it’s using (like your driver settings, external libraries, etc.).
Similarly to how GTA V’s (could be GTA Online) extreme loading time was caused by a very inefficient way of loading data. Users couldn’t change the algorithm themselves; they could investigate what was going on, but the developers were the only ones being able to actually change it to a recommended version.
Obviously the story is a bit different with an open source code which you can compile for yourself.
Makes me wonder how many seconds till they realise the users won’t be able to tell if the game is still loading or it’s just monetised delay. Bonus points if a user finds out, lobbies to get it banned and then they just include bullshit extra processing to justify it.
The future looks so bright.
Same here but with several games that don’t run on Linux. For some degree, I even understand the problem, however painful it is: ANY multilayer’s anticheat is a pain in the ass if you have to develop them for two OSs at the same time. Counter Strike: Source was virtually unbannable on Linux for way too long, and I’m still not sure where CS2 is standing now (I stopped back in the CSGO times).
I really don’t know how we could fix this, and no, cutting off THAT many games I like is not an option (some of them even barely have a (good) alternative - think of Rocket League).
Humans are selfish by definition (genes). It would be like rewinding a film and starting over.
The main problem lies within humans’ tendency to put themselves (their family/tribe/culture/etc.) before others’. I know there are fantastic people who don’t, but in the grand scheme of things, humanity will always be too selfish in general. I’d bet that will be our bane (we’re kind of slowly killing ourselves with it already).
Whenever I have to edit a text file when nauseous, I just vom it.
Honestly, let me know before I book my flight and you’ll never see me. But planning your holiday, buying all the tickets, booking several day’s worth of accommodation and traveling there is not something I can undo when I first bump into this sticker on my first walk.
And I never even travelled abroad for holidays, I’m just picturing the situation from the tourist’s point of view.
But wait, there’s more… They’ve been making it illegal for NGOs to receive donations from foreign countries “because it violates national sovereignty”. Same for opposition parties and media. Every year it’s getting harder and harder to overturn this nightmare and the incompetence of the opposition isn’t helping, either.
God forbid I recommended you to buy an HP ever, but it feels like they’ve been awful only in the ink jet section. At least my HP laser printer (283 something) doesn’t require me to have a(n) HP Smart account (I don’t even know how/where to set up one), I’ve had it for ~3-4 years now, and it’s been reliable and trusty ever since. I can imagine they started pulling the same shady shit with the new laser printers, but this one seems to be working as of now. Fingers crossed.
EDIT: Still buy a Brother, I have only heard amazing things about them; just saying it’s not happening everywhere - yet.
Romance movies from now on:
It wasn’t necessarily out of laziness but it screams laziness to me. Nobody would have noticed if OP just simply corrected CNIDA and nothing else in Gimp, hey, even in MSPaint.
Before I would get any itch to join the TikTok trend back when it started, I heard that the Chinese Communist Party was collecting some worrying amount of information on their user base, has been suppressing and/or blocking content that raised voice about the uyghur situation and did various nasty things. So I thought I would stay away from that until the situation improves. I have never heard a fraction of information about that happening. Did everyone just suddenly stop caring about how disgustingly TikTok treats privacy and user data (and how they suppress voices they don’t like), or did I just simply miss the bit where they stopped doing all those things?
Because that’s one of the many reasons I haven’t touched it with a stick.
Thanks, I’ll take a look but AFAIK Valorant still doesn’t work properly and smoothly on Linux.
Oh, that’s perfectly fine: as Trump stated before, once elected he would start a dictatorship from day one. So if Biden is doing the same (obv. not) then he (Trump) wouldn’t bring anything new to the table, he would just copy ideas and now republicans can’t even say it’s a bad thing.
But I guess I expect too much from the average Trump voter, remembering whatever that senile felon said months/years ago.
