- Comment on I was wondering why the €40k printer at work was choking with "simple" Canva PDFs 3 weeks ago:
The prior-generation Studio Display had 64GB of storage, so the new displays have double the capacity. Apple likely found it more affordable to use existing NAND storage from its iPhone supply chain rather than to invest in smaller modules with less storage. Most of the 128GB is probably unnecessary.
probably unnecessary
- Comment on I was wondering why the €40k printer at work was choking with "simple" Canva PDFs 3 weeks ago:
Because it is a raster image processor, it rasterizes pages at 1200 DPI CMYK raw files, then applies proprietary color correction profiles, algorithms, imposing booklet and so on.
I tried a totally blank page, if even 1 mm bigger than 1319 inch (330489 mm) the server crashes (I presume OOM)
So when there are one billion vector objects or transparencies, it takes like 1 minute per page

Really, it’s too slow. The 40 mins episodes could be condensed in 5 minutes shorts.
I rage quit during an episode where Kim Wexler asked “do you want a cup of tea?” And then proceeded of preparing it in FUCKING REAL TIME!!
Ok, it’s more cinematic, but usually when they do this they just take a cup prefilled behind the counter and move on, don’t need to show the whole process. Ok, probably it’s intentional, to show the detail how how empty and lonely were the cupboards but…
So, for me it’s too slow to be watched with full attention but at the same time there are too many important details that are shown “silently” to be watched while doing errands or something else
- Comment on They're calling it the Trump Laptop. Highest quality. So affordable. We're making technology great again, folks. 4 weeks ago:
That one I don’t understand. It’s just a gold colored Chinese phone from Alibaba. Probably they put more effort in designing the box than
designing the phone itselfchoosing the right tone of the gold color for the plastics. It takes 1 week of consultation with the manufacturer (ok, two weeks, because they need to explain how important that a gold wallpaper is set as default) and two months to import them. What are they waiting? Mr FIFA peace prize just want the money and deliver a “air” phone? - Comment on How we are brought into this world 4 weeks ago:

- Comment on "Game preservation only works if people care" As GOG doubles down on its commitment to saving old games, it's asking players "who give a s**t" to support its crusade 5 weeks ago:
No, but the workaround is to let the launcher use a different config
We don’t have plans to support multiple accounts, but you can still run Heroic pointing to a different config folder by using the XDG_CONFIG_HOME=~/.config2 env variable. You could create a shortcut to something like XDG_CONFIG_HOME=~/.config-user-1 heroic to open Heroic for one user and XDG_CONFIG_HOME=~/.config-user-2 heroic to open Heroic for another user.

you can login in heroic once and then install what you need, and disable cloud saves as default option
with family sharing the DRM does not allow two people to play at the same time, don’t ignore this huge inconvenience

Why do you need family sharing if the games are DRM free? If the kid wants to play a game from your account you just pass him the exe, what’s the issue
Controller support depends from the game, if you mean a controller remapper like steam, then you either use a third party remapper or you simply add the shortcut in steam. With heroic launcher you can add gog games in your steam list with a single click

This is because he felt challenged by Obama. He has a pathological complex of inferiority against Obama.
Obama talks about classified files? Trump one-ups and gives the classified files.
Now Obama should need to talk about those Trump-Epstein files…

Now i got a “oops I tried to squeeze too much money, let me try again” message that pisses me off even more
I hate prices that change according to the perspection on how much the client can afford or pay
- Comment on This website where all listed prices are fake and you need to chat over 2+ days to know the real price 2 months ago:
I also interpret it like that. But then when i went to pay the $175, they kept chatting with me for over two days (“exact size as stated without customization, right?” yes - “same color?” yes - “same material of description?” yes) to finally say that the price it’s $1750 instead and the initial quote was completely BS, just to take leads. I wouldn’t think that getting leads misleading customers by a factor of ten is a good idea, but if 90% of sellers there do that, maybe is working

No. That price is for 500 units, which doesn’t make sense

- Comment on The right FUCKING time to get TWO ram sticks damaged 2 months ago:
yes, and I agree with it being TOTAL TRASH
- it takes two boots to start, first boot can’t see any drives connected (sata, nvme). If you boot from usb some OS installer, the installer won’t see any drive until reboot.
- it has no support whatsoever. BIOS update? LOL you get the alpha “if it compiles, it ships” version
- the bios is in engineering mode and has like 15 pages of incomprehensible options
- even if the bios has 15 pages of ultradetailed engineer-only options, it’s missing basic options like “numlock on at start”, “WOL”, fan control, and other stuff that i forgot about (or maybe they’re buried somewhere under some weird acronym)
- Comment on The right FUCKING time to get TWO ram sticks damaged 2 months ago:
I wonder also. I’m guessing maybe a bad lot?
The story starts two years ago when I bought them in a kit with 4 16gb sticks from micron. When installed all four the motherboard, I installed Linux and it crashed (froze) when running a VM with KVM. Tested with memtestx86 and it will always fail at the 5th test (after around 20 mins of crunching) and at reboot the bios would reset to default. Because it was an AMD Ryzen and all the web results said so, I assumed it was some kind of incompatibility and removed two sticks. With two sticks, it passed the test. I swapped the two sticks and it passed the test again. So I left those 2 16gb sticks in the Ryzen and used the other 2 16gb sticks with the Intel. Both passed the test.
Fast forward 18 months, in the Intel I’m copying a file from the nvme to the HDD and it tells me
Input/output error.I start diagnosing the btfrs filesystem, find corruption in the counter, scrub finds uncorrectable errors in the virtio-win.iso file, the one I wanted to move. I assumed it was some btrfs bug, deleted the file as I could download it again, moved on. After a few weeks a flatpak app wouldn’t start. Read the dmesg, see a btrfs message about some corrupted inode or something like that. I use find to find the file at that inode, it was the flatpak. Again assumed it was a btrfs bug, reinstalled the flatpak and moved on.
Then yesterday the system froze. This time I tested with memtestx86. It failed immediately within seconds. Took out one stick, swapped them, no change. I went back and swap them with the other two sticks bought in the same lot, those would pass the test.
