gotta respect the grind

i mean, i've never needed to divide the size of a standard sheet of paper - if i need a smaller variant, i can just fold it in half and cut it. when working with paper, it's pretty easy to do physical math, and you rarerly need something that's perfect down to the millimetre

regarding the size- it's just something you learn through life. school supplies lists typically specify the size of notebooks and paper you need to buy in centimetres, so year over year, you quickly learn that A4 is 22:29.7, and the slightly bigger standard notebooks are 24:32

you probably got a kernel panic, which froze the system. it's like a BSOD on windows, except on linux, there isn't a proper stack to handle them when they happen while you have a graphicam session running, so it kinda just freezes

i don't think reisub would do anything, because the kernel was probably already dead

you don't risk corrupting much data by hard-reseting your pc on linux -- journaling filesystems, like ext4 or btrfs, are built to be resilient to sudden power loss (or kernel crashing). if a program was writing a file at thz time the kernel crashed, this one file may be corrupted, because the program would get killed before it finished writing the file, but all in all, it's pretty unlikely. outside of fs bugs, which are thankfully few and far between on time-tested filesytems like ext4, you shouldn't have to worry much about sudden power loss!

unfortunately, figuring out the cause of these issues can be challenging -- i've had many such occurences, and you have no logs to go off of (because the system doesn't have time to save them), so you'd most likely need to figure out a way to send your kernel logs onto another system to record them

as general mitigation steps, you should try monitoring your cpu temperature a bit closer - it could be high temperature tripping the safeties of your motherboard/cpu to avoid physical damage to them - in which case, try installing a daemon to control your cpu frequency, like auto-cpufreq, or something like thermald specifically made to throttle your cpu if it gets too hot (though i think that one is intel specific)

embrace the sinographic way.

lmao. as if the ai was gonna have a better carbon footprint than the small plastic thing you replace every 5-10 years

i mean, it's cool we have science to provide that to the people who want it imo

X11 being reliable because Xorg devs aren't stupid

xorg devs are wayland devs. nowadays, most of the people that used to work on xorg now work on wayland. they're not stupid, they realised that x11 is too dated for modern systems (see asahi linux) and now are working on a replacement

yeah, i think the 30% is fair enough, given the amount of stuff you get as a user by using steam, like

• good cross-platform support
• a working friendlist and chat system
• remote play together
• the workshop and community features
• profile customisation stuff for those that like it
• whishlists and gifts

i honestly feel like while they're a monopoly, they don't do anything other companies can't do, their cut goes to fund features others simply don't provide, so it's entierly fair for them to be more expensive than the competition

i have yet to see a single anti-adblock pop-up on youtube lmao

my list of cool features:

Gradually rolling out in Fx119, Firefox now allows you to edit PDFs by adding images and alt text, in addition to text and drawings.

If you're migrating your data from Chrome, Firefox now offers the ability to import some of your extensions as well.

As part of Total Cookie Protection, Firefox now supports the partitioning of Blob URLs, this mitigates a potential tracking vector that third-party agents could use to track an individual.

The visibility of fonts to websites has been restricted to system fonts and language pack fonts in Enhanced Tracking Protection strict mode to mitigate font fingerprinting.

Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) is now available to Firefox users, delivering a more private browsing experience. ECH extends the encryption used in TLS connections to cover more of the handshake and better protect sensitive fields.

Firefox is now available in the Santali (sat) language.

Several enhancements have been made to the Inactive CSS styles feature. This feature assists in identifying CSS properties that have no effect on an element. Pseudo-elements such as ::first-letter, ::cue, and ::placeholder are now fully supported.

The JSON viewer is particularly useful for debugging REST APIs, as it displays formatted JSON responses. Now, if the JSON is invalid or broken, it automatically switches to a raw data view, improving the user experience.

Grouping of items in an array (and iterables) is now easier by using the methods Object.groupBy or Map.groupBy.
