Ah yes I too love to read about the positives of the worst ecological disaster we have ever experienced (created) that will lead to widespread suffering and death. It's like arguing about how nuclear war would be great for the construction business.
Go tell all the climate refugees when their home gets swallowed up by the ocean or when a heatwave kills their grandma that they need to see the "positive sides" of the situation.
Thanks for the response, it's good to know what's causing the problems with messages and that it's being worked on. I'll try to contact support next time I have voice issues with my group.
Elixir was one of the reasons I started using Discord in the first place. I figured if they were smart enough to use Elixir for a program like this then they would probably have a bright future ahead of them.
In practice, Discord hasn't been completely reliable for my group. Lately messages have been dropping out or being sent multiple times. Voice gets messed up (robot voice) at least a couple times per week and we have to switch servers to make it work again. A few times a person's voice connection has stopped working completely for several minutes and there's nothing we can do about it.
I don't know if these problems have anything to do with the Elixir backend or the server.
>Go on living, stop being a hyper-sensitive prick about people saying mean things. They're going to bully whether or not it's at home, school or work.
Go ahead and tell that to the growing number of people with depression or other mental anxieties that they're being "hyper-sensitive pricks", I'll wait. I'm sure they will appreciate your advice. This is just as stupid as telling a depressed person to "just think happy thoughts". You're out of touch.
Came here to say this. Many of my friends run pirated copies of Windows because they cannot afford a license, and they cannot use Linux either because they are dependent on Windows software.
Usually I'd say it's their own fault but fuck it, it's Microsoft's fault. Everyone knows Windows licenses are overpriced and that if Microsoft actually cared about collective security they'd bring the price down. Stop pretending you're not a part of infrastructure.
I did the same. I got fed up with constantly tweaking my Emacs config so I switched to VS Code. A month later I was back because VS Code was missing too many things I wanted and didn't really work the way I wanted it to.
So the way I feel about it now is, yes, it would be nice to not have to deal with these configurations. But so far, editors like this aren't as good as the ones that do require more complex configuration, at least in my opinion.
But as others have mentioned, it's not so bad. Once you get your config right you can mostly leave it alone.
I use a cronjob with redshift[0] and it works. You can set it to simply toggle the effect without any scheduling (`redshift -O 3400` to enable, `redshift -x` to disable). I have it set to enable at 9PM and disable the next morning when I open my laptop lid ;)
I used Xfce for a while but I still prefer vanilla Ubuntu, Unity feels more polished to me. It's the little stuff like vsync being enabled by default (no screen tearing when you move a window or scroll a web page).
>There's honestly not a ton of difference on most of the CLI stuff since the hardware is the same, but it is measurable.
This is what I was after. I can't imagine ffmpeg running slower just because of systemd or unity. But yeah, if you're running on a 2010 netbook I wouldn't be surprised if it ran better under Xfce.
The saddest part about it for me is that Windows 10 made some of my friends cynical regarding privacy. If you asked them before they would have at least acknowledged the value of privacy, but now it's just "Why not upgrade to Windows 10? Everything you use is already data-mining you." They see all the bad news about privacy in Windows 10 and I guess that's the only way you can rationalize using it.
AFAIK your issues with the 2012 Nexus 7 are well known to be caused by the storage memory of the device, it degrades really rapidly. Upgrading to 5.1 just makes it more pronounced. Other devices of the same age don't suffer from it.
The new ThinkPads are indeed awful, get the X220 aka the last good one. That should do you well until something worthwhile comes to replace it (maybe HP?)
- Last old-style ThinkPad with great build quality
- Last one with the classic keyboard
- Small form factor
- Sandy bridge i7, still kicks butt because it's not undervolted (check the benchmarks)
- up to 16 GB memory
- 10 hours of battery with a new 9-cell battery (+ tlp package on linux)
