Yea, the periodic weird one really makes it an exciting gamble.

Framework 2880 x 1920 (new) display review in c/linuxmemes

Actually I have really REALLY bad vision, but my glasses bring me to around 20/20. Maybe as I get older I'll start scaling up. Or just buy bigger sized monitors!

Seriously, cannot go back. When MacBooks came out with retina, got one and got a program to run at native resolution. So much data and text on a screen! Looking forward to this display with 100% scale. Full stop. Everyone always says my text looks tiny but I love it! Dual 4k monitors, no scaling on my desktop Linux. My old Alienware laptop was 4k oled, gnome and KDE looked fan frickin tastic! I'm not buying pixels to not have em go to full use.

The intro to #41, Invisibility, has always been a favorite. Don't need this anymore. Don't need THIS anymore 'smacks computer off desk' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7YdvkSJUjM

Using exponents in basic Kcalc in c/[email protected]

[–] blueday 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I'm on kcalc 22.12.3, so maybe something changed. If I click the negative sign after clicking the 8, it works for me. So workflow in science mode: 5 x 10 Xy 8 +/- Enter.

And after typing all this I realize you probably meant using the keyboard. If so, use Backslash after typing the exponent to make it negative.

Ridiculous they won't bring it back after he said it's fine. Sue us, what kind of response is that??

Microsoft blocks some PCs from Windows 11 24H2 — CPU must support SSE4.2 or the OS will not boot in c/[email protected]

[–] blueday 3 points 6 months ago

Looks like Intel started with it in 11/2008, AMD in 2011. Long time, but not 'nearly 20 years.'

SMITE 2 added Proton in system requirements for Linux in c/[email protected]

[–] blueday 3 points 7 months ago

Did it go from Linux native to Proton only? Only reason I would think assuming headline is accurate.

Steam :: Introducing Steam Families in c/games

For REAL!! Not playing same game with one copy makes sense. But the one instance per library was harsh. This is tremendous, and honestly, I'll probably buy even more games knowing my kids can play them and I can stick to my same old same old if I don't like it.
