Well, SGX is only for DRM, and not much else, and would still work like that with NSA access, but then why would they want your Netflix show?...

[carewolf]

It is the file-system. Linux file-system and FS drivers are heavily optimized for development. I haven't tried the latest macOS FS, but it is supposed...

[carewolf]

Linux or macOS? Compiling on macOS is two or three times slower than Linux. A colleague of mine even found building our project on a Linux VM running...

[carewolf]

In that RHEL doesn't rebrand their gcc 3.4 as gcc 7.4?

Edit: And also that Apple doesn't offer ANYWHERE NEAR the same reliability, and only...

[carewolf]

But when will Apple clang be using clang 7.0 internally? 10 years from now.. never?

[carewolf]

Lutris? That shit that wants you to log in so it too can track your private data? Fuck Lutris....

[carewolf]

Actually it was huge repositories, but they were split up into smaller ones during the transition....

[carewolf]

Well, perhaps things work if they contrain themselves to ~10 years of history, instead of all.. emm. 30? years of history....

[carewolf]

No, it is file system access. POSIX style so not fully 'native' on Windows and macOS but perfectly usable, and in fact driven by Microsoft. The committee...

[carewolf]

Anything can look sharp and good on a high res screen. The problem is that it is a trade off on lower resolutions...

[carewolf]

You should try Liberation (1) Mono with full hinting... It is the single best hinted font I have ever seen, always 100% sharp.

Buy Cousine...

[carewolf]

But that is a downgrade. Liberation 1 is much better hinted, where the so-called second edition is Googles fork which has little to no hinting and requires...

[carewolf]

Maybe some of the patches, but without optimizing in general for new minimum arch, you wont get the full Clear Linux performance....

[carewolf]

And then GNOME reanimated my dog to some touch based abomination, and there was no way to could get it to go away or stop animating, it just wouldn't...

[carewolf]

Not really. They have a huge KDE user base, and since companies pay money for Fedora, they have to support it if they want to keep that part of their...

[carewolf]

Then it wouldn't work on older hardware anymore. They could just also themselves up their minimums....

[carewolf]

That's qbs....

[carewolf]

I was told by a gcc developer once, but I just checked and also can't find any documenation saying it, so I checked the sources. Here is the code enabling...

[carewolf]

No, it doesn't enable them as if you passed them as arguments, because when passed as arguments they are used on all code. The clever thing with PGO is...

[carewolf]

The point is that one of the tricks PGO has is enabling many of the O3 optimizations on demand, so it will use them in all hot code, as if you had indicated...
