In my experience rPi was terrible as a local server. The micro SD cards would fail regularly and I just got tired of handling backups and restoring them. I switched to a set up box type tiny PC and it's stable as rock in comparison. Old laptop would be even better for that, shame I didn't think about it.

Private or obscure ones I guess.

Private and obscure benchmarks are very often gamed by the benchmarkers. It's very difficult to design a fair benchmark (e.g chrome can be optimized to load Gmail for obvious reasons. maybe we should choose a more fair website when comparing browsers? but which? how can we know that neither browser has optimizations specific for page X?). Obscure benchmarks are useless because we don't know if they measure the same thing. Private benchmarks are definitely fun but only useful to the author.

If a benchmark is well established you can be sure everyone is trying to game it.

Microbenchmarks which are heavily gamed

Which benchmarks aren't?

My gnome-terminal had some issues with nerd fonts so I started term jumping again. Went back to alacritty but quickly remembered that it doesn't have tabs and even quicker apt removed this piece of trash. I didn't even try kitty again after remembering how stupid it is to use it with ssh. Tried wezterm, everything worked like a charm, still using it. If it gives me any trouble I will try Ghostty, looks nice.

But they look so cute! Who wouldn't want to see this make a comeback:

Because it's fake?

41% still think he's doing a good job. Wow. Just... wow.

Only one thing to do: set two pedophile hunters up on a date.

The best thing about Vim is that despite having all the features of a modern IDE it starts in 0.1s and you can start editing right away while the code data is loading asynchronously.

The worst thing about Vim is that... just kidding, there's nothing bad about it.

The only person in real danger here is the journalist.

Zuck has to be pissed it wasn't WhatsApp.
