I relate to that ten dollar dude from the Hamilton musical singing „Alexander Hamilton. My name is Alexander Hamilton. And there‘s a million things i haven‘t done. But just you wait! Just you waaiiit!“

What if a new OS comes with, say, a GPU driver that is not compatible anymore? Is there not even an override for this possible? I have a PC with the GTX 970 which in computer terms is basically just after the meteorite crash ending the jurassic era. And i have been considering to use Bazzite OS for this machine.
Remember: Just tell tar to Xtract Z File.
To think there was a time when IMO Apple could convince people with great products.
(Macintosh SE explodes in the background due to overheating)
Then again i‘ve mostly seen old Apple computers on Youtube.
Don‘t forget the Core Technology Fee they will raise if you do wish to offer your app outside of the app store and you weren‘t qualified for the Apple Developer Enterprise program.
And don‘t forget that in order to be eligible for sideloading you have to have at least one million downloads on the App Store.
And don‘t forget that your app still has to go through the App Review process so you have exactly no additional freedom if you live in the european economical area.
I sure hope the EU keeps kicking Apples ass. I love iOS but i hate the lack of freedom.
Btw, does anyone know whether visionOS even supports sideloading in the EEA.
Nah, they prefer prescriptivism. Actually, Terf Island still makes sense from that lens.
I’m not sure, but there’s a descriptivism/prescriptivism joke in there somewhere.
Well, GoG does have a lot of games but only few of the latest games that we want to try out. Or could i buy, say, Diablo 4 on GoG? Dave the Diver? Enshrouded? Sons of the Forest? Borderlands? Not even Sims?
Don‘t GPUs also include hardware for DRM stuff like that?
The EU is (finally) coming for Apple‘s ass. So Sideloading might finally become a thing on iOS.
Until then we have Signulous to sign our apps for Sideloading. There are also other options but those require a PC nearby so up to three apps can be signed for 7 days at a time.
Also tell me how Apple and Apple users have ruined Android. I‘ve been using Android phones since Android 2.1 and switched to an iPhone recently solely because my company gifted me an iPhone 14 Pro Max. And through all those years i didn‘t notice Apple or Apple users ruining Android.
My Intel Wireless AC 7265 on my Sony VAIO begs to differ. Certainly not brand-spanking new but it’s AFAIK less than 10 years old. The speed would at some point drop under Void Linux.
Open Source doesn’t mean automatically that applications look ugly. It only means that they look ugly on non-Linux systems. Like VLC Player, Open Office, etc.
Linux systems are easy to install. The real challenge is to diagnose an issue. What caused the crash of GTA V? The new Mesa drivers? The new Gamescope update? Some update in the game that breaks in conjunction with KDE running in Wayland? But you launched the game in xwayland, how could Wayland still cause trouble? Or is it the latest FEX update you installed because you saw a Youtuber playing Elden Ring on their iPhone 14 Pro with HoloISO and you figured that the 15 Pro should handle the game perfectly?
Apple: “Look, we made an ad with a woman depicting mother nature. Look at how self-aware and quirky we are.”
Me: (writes a short fanfic of mother nature beating Tim Cook up so bad, it might look like a Family Guy cutaway)
I think GPD offers SteamOS copies for their devices.
Hmm yeah, but what if applications had to ask for less memory from the kernel?
It didn’t cause problems since i have a lot of RAM but i still hold the opinion that just because we have a lot of RAM, we don’t need to waste it. We could keep being efficient about it and get even more out of the same amount of RAM, you know. That said, if Tauri lowers the RAM usage of the same applications i’m looking forward to it.
That’s not a compliment to Electron, that’s a heck of an indictment to Microsoft messing up the File Manager.
If a fancy text editor starts eating hundreds of megabytes RAM without having loaded a file, i think we did something wrong.
Though Visual Studio can do that too without Electron.
Electron IS a browser. It’s a Chromium browser to be exact with all the Chromium UI elements except the very bare minimum removed.
So the only difference that remains is running a website in a tab or in a fancy window.
I personally invert the axes in third person scenarios because the camera moves around the character and i want to move the camera.
Within first person shooters i don’t because i move the camera/head to where i want to look.
My ultimate is charging.
