    There is ways of create a basic masonery layouts using only pure CSS grid. But dependes on the use case. Take this example where are mixed cards without images, only text, and with images plus text.

    > 'Tricks' like 'not including too many comments' were already well-known from day one of the ZX line (which started around 1980) because, well, you had 1K, 16K or 48K or RAM to work with, so every character counted!

    But that GO TO/GO SUB target position in the code list matters, because does a linear search (so the no use comments, isn't only about wasting RAM), was new for me. And I toyed with a ZX Spectrum as child.

    I disagree. Not all it's "autosave on cloud", and some apps keeps having an explicit save something button or option.

    I recently had a discussion about replacing the "save icon" (IE. the old floppy disk icon) for an icon with an arrow pointing down, for a button that saves (don't download!) a custom query of the user in the system. Perhaps it could be replaced with another icon, but not by someone that everyone would think is "Download".

    Twitter was . Not is . And I'm not talking about the name change.

    If you use a LLM for writing, then you aren't writing anything.
  8. Zardoz84
    Do you stop to think of the wastage of resources that is having an auto OCR of the screen and a LLM to simply close a tab.

    I had it working without issues from Steam (I bought UT 99 and 2004 before Epic de-listed from Steam)

    I prefer a pletora of code hosting sites, that one massive hub controlled by a single one. We can see how bad is when there is a monopoly or cuasi-monopoly.

    Except Linux
  12. Zardoz84
    And why you not run Linux dev env on bare metal and avoid the pain of using W11 ?

    EPUB it's a glorified HTML page in a zip file.

    What's wrong buying any Harry Potter thing, when J.K. has spoken very clearly that any money that she would get, would be use in his anti-trans crusade ?

    I'm using KDE with Wayland and I don't have problems to make screenshots or capture video.

    Good luck when you sysadmin apply a decent automated security suite and removes the old Java 8 installation because isn't updated

    They could get less effort it's they simple use KDE and configure it to mimic Windows or OSX. It isn't necessary to hack Gnome.

    the last time that I check it, I find that I need to convert to Jpeg to show the image in browsers.

    > There’s an old electronics joke that if you want to build an oscillator, you should try building an amplifier

    The most easy way to annoy a neighbor using AM radios, it's using a regenerative AM receptor with too high gain. Could oscillate and begin to emit noise at the same freq that are you tuning. Adding a simple carbon microphone to it, and setting the gain to the max, was a very easy way of building a AM radio emitter.

    > The circuit can be simplified to two transistors at the expense of readability, but if you need an analog oscillator with a lower component count, an operational amplifier is your best bet.

    Well... Using a NOT (really a NAND) gate was a very classic way of generate clocks for discrete logic.
