For three years there has been a bug report around 4K@120Hz being unavailable via HDMI 2.1 on the AMD Linux driver.

The wait continues...

Having recently picked up woodworking after building my own office desk, this hit rather close to home.

I was thinking of cross posting this to a Fortran community, but it looks like we don't yet have one.

Pain... This too painful to be posted as just a meme...

Does anyone have a favorite commercial game know to be developed using Bevy? Available on steam, Google Play, etc.

I know Bevy has a web site of indexing games from hackathons and what not, but I was more interested in seeing any commercially published titles.

Private Eye - essential for staying online 24/7

What was that device, an early cellular modem or 802.11 wireless bridge? The thing ontop of the briefcase looks like a head visor with an antenna. Google search keywords are just noise.

Can you imagine the eye strain one would get programming on a translucent screen every day? One where your always having to keep your eyes focused on semi transparent text and graphical interfaces in the foreground, and not the distracting and ever changing background, continuously shifting in parallax as you adjust your head and viewing angle. Not having my display buttressed up against a wall, or having to deal with glare and screen reflections, or even low contrast monitors in general are all things I find infuriating already.

But I guess the Sci-Fi future of ergonomics is holograms. *You must have your migraines, and you must enjoy them.

Yeah, I found the discussions on HN and the debates in the Google group mailing list ("Intent to Prototype: Web environment integrity API") much more interesting, but didn't hot link the latter in the OP post to limit brigading. Although that mail list archive is made publicly accessable.

Please only post programming memes to !programmer_humor@programming.dev .

Just need to put a JIT compiled language logo inside the blue car and caption it as "Containerise once, ship anywhere".

From the article linked by the post:

Many users are mourning the shutdown. “r/ToR_Archive is my r/all,” wrote u/MostlyBlindGamer, who is also a mod on r/blind. “Transcriptions on r/ProgrammerHumor are how I senselessly stay connected to the memes around my work.” “r/worldnewsvideo and its community will miss you terribly… thank you for all you have done to bring Reddit to everyone,” wrote another user.

Out in the wild? Perhaps quite a few. For example, for teleoperated robotic thoracic surgeries, I imagine medical grade HID should mandate safety certified hardware that doesn't rely on electrically noisy mechanical potentiometers, subject to Dead zone drift, or non-deterministic dead man behavior under failure modes. Although I'm certain there's various reasons not to use hall effect sensing devices even within the same facility as MRI machines.

Textual transcription of meme: (two panels)
First panel: laughing group of people gathered around a phone, captioned:
"The Internet laughing at the Titan submersible using a Logitech controller"

Second panel: the Awkward Look Monkey Puppet meme, captioned:
"The robotics community"

If I recall, this controller was wireless via Logitech's proprietary 2.4Ghz USB dongle, but yes, weird would be better. I'm also surprised they still used wireless due to battery concerns, such as being an additional fire hazard in a confined space, or unexpected power loss during critical maneuvers, and not just from the connectivity liability of RF.
