I'm also on Emacs and Niri, seems to be a popular combo, and I don't have any performance problem.
At home I'm driving an Ultrawide (3440x1440@75Hz) at scale 1.1.
At work I'm driving two 4k screens at scale 1.2.
I might be less sensitive to latency but it could also be a graphics driver issue or something similar. I'm using Arch with emacs-wayland (pgtk) with a strix halo (all AMD) laptop.
Nothing of that is angering me, I live in the EU and life is pretty nice.
My comment above was meant to provide context and to point out that both sides of the argument can be legitimate.
The comment is neutral, you shouldn't be able to infer what I think about the EU from it. It simply points out facts and says that reducing a point of view to being uninformed is too easy.
My stance on the EU is complex: it does good, it does bad, it affects each member states differently, it changes over time. Those are all pretty neutral statements too, only siths live in extremes ;-).
I think the grandparent references many referendums that rejected EU treaties:
- Maastricht Treaty, 1992, Denmark,
- European Constitution, 2005, France and Netherlands,
- Lisbon Treaty, 2008, Ireland.
The votes were usually redone and passed. The exception is Norway which refused to join twice.
> Clearly not everyone loves the EU but the majorities are very much in favour (and certainly this is the case among the people who actually understand politics, economics, etc.).
This is quite the loaded statement. I've heard from people on either both sides of the argument that understood politics and economics very well (professors, lecturers, etc.)
I had many conversations with a former boss about the Azure sales team. They would come in, say they can do it cheaper, simpler and better — he was immediately convinced.
I would do a calculation based on their public price plan and come up with a 5-10x price compared to the bare metal OVH solution that perfectly fit our use case. I would then ask the sales team where I made a mistake in my calculation and hear nothing back.
A few months later, they would come back with the same pitch and the whole process would repeat...
I'm really curious what will happen to this space when Valve releases great open source drivers for the Qualcomm chip they have in the Steam Frame. It might be one of the first, very powerful, GPU accelerated SoC you can buy that has mainline support.
I can image having a very usable ARM linux laptop and tablet as a result of this — maybe even cellphone when the modems get mainlined or used via USB.
> This will allow you to distribute your creations to a limited number of devices without going through the full verification requirements.
How can they count the number of devices you install the app on without being the ones to give a permission to install it?
They took nothing back, they are still putting in place the requirement that Google gives permission to install apps on your phone. They are misleading us about it too which is also terrible.
I made a time sync library over local network that had to be more precise than NTP and used i128 to make sure the i64 math I was doing couldn't overflow.
I32 didn't cover enough time span and f64 has edge cases from the nature of floats. This was for Windows (MACC not GCC) so I had to roll out my own i128.
I'm using niri with two screens at work and it's been very nice. I don't open windows on the side as you suggest but I believe that can be done with custom bindings and/or window rules.
I'm actually curious if there's something I don't know about /e/
