Are we having an argument? Most likely I’m not trying to be a meanie, but I’m just struggling to understand / effectively communicate with yah.
If I understand this right, you’re looking for Continuous Collision Detection
i.e. rather than calculating collision by looking at the intersection of objects in every frame, instead calculate collision by drawing out the path the object will go, and looking for collision along it.
So you’re taking the best aspects of any fork you can find? Trust in the developers is an essential part of the question.
If a piece of software passes every audit in the whole world, but is developed and maintained by the NSA, you’d be stupid to leave your data with it.
Let me save you a lot of time and effort:
Your findings will either be an incredibly lengthy wording of that, or they will simply be wrong. It’s not a complex question.
??? Nobody gets blown up going to NK. And tourists frequently enter by land.
As a daily Fedora user, this is annoying. I totally support the push for open-source, but enabling RPM Fusion on new installs to do standard stuff is a royal pain in the butt that will immediately turn off new users.
Always gonna note too that Google Chrome (and chromium + derivatives to a lesser extent) kneecaps adblock plugins so that up to 50% fewer ad domains are blocked, blocklists are out of date, many in-page ads can’t be caught, it’s slower, and invisible trackers can bypass it.
I remember them telling us covid was low risk, that it would be contained, and not to panic.
I agree a lot public health management really fucked up in a big way, and we could have handled even the initial response a lot better. But in their defense, these statements had been true of every other overblown novel contagion in the past century. In the past couple decades there have been a few diseases which were touted as the new global pandemic and they came to very little (on the grand scale, not saying they weren’t serious for the people who suffered them). I also agree the mask shit was totally mishandled.
I think it’s impractical to call for a full-blown reaction to every new disease out there. Unfortunately then reacting to stuff when it does become big will take at least some time.
Personally wouldn’t currently advise anyone to “prepare” for it in any way beyond how they should already be as standard - Just always have a few days worth of canned food, supplies and masks.
While I am usually resistant to change, I remain ever vigilant to try not be that XKCD guy
Windows -> Fedora
Been almost 10 years and no thoughts of changing. What can I say? I lucked out first time.
The only download software I used was the DownThemAll Firefox extension, which has always been real good. It works on all sites I’ve tried it with, it’s a very customisable interface, I don’t really know what you mean by not copy-pasting links but you don’t gotta do that.
You’re not likely to find an exact copy of the software for another OS, wine probably is your best bet if you just want IDM in Linux form.
Automated tests are cool, but they definitely aren’t a panacea in place of humans
Is it possible to… boot into a LUKS in a LUKS?
For techy people, sure. But in 90% of cases, people moving from Windows are looking for as little a paradigm-shift as they have to endure. I’m sure most regular Linux-users wouldn’t disagree that other distros are cool, but telling someone “use this thing it’s literally nothing like anything you know” is not going to get many takers from the population of people who just want their tech to do everyday stuff.
Websites worked fine before ads, and they would work well again without them. Doubly so now that crowdfunding is a common method to support things people actually want.
Honestly as a power user for 10 years I very, very rarely come across a time it’s a good idea to touch anything outside the home directory.
No? I’ve already said what it’s about, and I’m not eager to repeat myself 'cause I feel vague meanyness.
It’s not about a lack of features.
We essentially have three different browsers, that definitively isn’t “lots and lots”. Every year they get together and agree on what measures can be foisted upon all users with or without their support. The rest are very little more than reskins of each other.
Install Firefox with default settings > Look at your new tab page. They’re all sponsored ads.
Firefox on mobile collects data and sends it off for marketing purposes, this can’t be turned off.
Already got all my favourite games downloaded or on DVD. All my Youtube favourites and the full catalogues of some old channels would be great. No JonGrumps and no 00’s meme videos make me something something.
