Could linux breathe new life into a busted toaster laptop like mine?
  • Also how is linux for emulation and gaming in general?

    everyone's already told you that cpu is slow so i'll answer this one. i game exclusively on linux. it's gotten very good in general. valve basing their products off of linux and developing proton to support wine (and wine improving greatly over the years) have made linux a viable platform except for certain games that require particularly aggressive anticheat. valorant is an esport game that comes to mind. the anticheat in that game touches the Windows kernel. protondb.com generally catalogs people's per-game experience on linux.

  • What do I think about Lua after shipping a project with 60,000 lines of code? - Interview with lead programmer of the video game Craftomation 101.
  • Fun related fact: both Hades and Hades II are also mostly Lua scripts. And they ship the source code with both games so you can just go look at things like how fishing probabilities are implemented directly in the script.

  • Reminder that if dipshit patsoc grifters with delusions of grandeur can read Capital you can too

  • The modern university cannot function without the support of the military-industrial complex
  • universities take 50+% of grants in the name of facilities costs. in stem a large number of these grants are either related to industrial funding or military complex funding or government military funding or government military energy funding or if you're the nice window dressing you might get to fight over national science foundation money. these are the kinds of grants that make multimillion+ dollar labs financially solvent. so in a very literal and obvious sense, capital in general and the military-industrial complex in particular are actively engaged in both the acts of funding the modern university and choosing what research gets performed.

    amerikkka: you can say anything about anyone and as long as you don't have a lot to gain from it and a vault of evidence that you knew you were lying, it's fine

    ukkk: if you say disparaging stuff you sure better be able to prove that it's not just rhetoric.

    japan: you cannot say provably true things about other people if it looks bad for them, even if the true things are about how they've hurt others.

    i agree with other posters that long-corbyn could have and should have taken ownership of the sun and the daily mail for what they did to him.

  • Kicked macOS to the Curb and Installed Asahi Fedora Gnome
  • i've had fedora on a macbook pro somewhat recently, and the weirdest difference was whatever copr is. i think it's some kind of alternate repositories that can have non-free software or something along those lines. fedora seemed decently quick to learn coming from debian though.

  • China set to build giant chip factory using a particle accelerator
  • tldr: they're working on a process that uses an electron laser for lithography. the particle accelerator is a typical way to make an electron laser.

    How a global seafood giant broke Red Lobster | CNN Business
