Cinnamon is the only other desktop environment that I can really use besides KDE. To me they're equal in quality. Cinnamon does some things better than KDE, KDE does some things better than Cinnamon. It varies based on how each one is configured in your distro's repository more than anything. KDE on Arch is top notch. Cinnamon on Arch is hot garbage. Cinnamon on Ubuntu is usually really good, KDE on Ubuntu was barely usable last time I tried it.

If you know a lot about desktop environments you could fix either one yourself but I only use them based on which one works better after I download it and configure basic settings.

If they never release the source, including all the fpga verilog files then this is pointless to the open source community.

Edit: actually I just realized my comment is kind of pointless. Even if he released the fpga source code, a thing a lot of projects like these never do, it still wouldn't be possible to reproduce one of these using only free and open source software. This is because the only fpgas that let you program them using open source software and not a locked-down windows-only bloatfuck program that needs an internet connection and licensing are the lattice ice40 fpgas. Tl;dr this can't be fully "open source".

I wonder if it would be possible to make an ice 40 based video card that could still do opengl.

The best part is when I check to see what exact version of the package I really have and despite it being old, it's the version a month after the one where the bug was fixed but I'm still getting the bug so I guess I'll go fuck myself then.

Thanks for the write up.

After weighing my options, I think I'm going to just go with normal printer paper. When I said using normal printer paper would be more than twice as thick, I wasn't accounting for the fact that I'd be using both sides. So a 500 page ream should equal 1000 double sided pages. So that means the final size using normal printer paper would only be a little thicker instead of more than twice as thick.

I found some newsprint paper on Amazon that might work but I have an ink jet and I'm thinking it's not going to be worth the hassle considering normal paper isn't as bad of a choice as previously thought.

I'm going to do a few trial runs before deciding how I'll actually bind them together and not print all 1000+ pages before learning somethings not going to work. I want to avoid 3 ring binder. Splitting it into sections sounds like the way to go. I'll experiment with spiral bound. Regular hard cover looks enticing but I'd say that route has a high likelihood of not working out especially with the paper size and quantity I'm dealing with. Maybe I'll dissect a college textbook and see what's inside the spine.

The only thing I know about asbestos is that if it ever got to the point where I couldn't afford toilet paper anymore, I would buy a single sheet of asbestos just so I could completely clean it by torching it with fire. Also, there's synthetic alternatives that are better than asbestos anyway.

This comment is a shitpost though and not actual medical advice. Also, I thought this was on lemmy shitpost for some reason so oops.

If you actually have a choice stay away from Nvidia although it's been a hot minute since I last saw a laptop with an amd gpu.

Missouri is crazy. Its the absolute cheapest state to live in that has legal weed. At one point they were going to build a supersonic train from Saint Louis to Kansas City (and maybe they still are?) Sounds like a liberal paradise right? Wrong, they still occasionally make the news for doing the same kind of shit Texas or Russia would do. So are they liberals or fascists? Schrodingers box of political alignment.

I try not to but some social situations are so fucking stupid it's like I don't have a choice.

The economy improving because Trump sends all the people conservatives don't like to concentration camps, making it easier for others to get a job simply because there is less competition, isn't worth it. If that's the alternative I'd rather the economy be "bad".

Well I know what I'm doing tonight

If you're cold, discord is cold. Post classified military documents in your local shitposting server.

I don't understand the strange obsession people have with south east asia.
