New code is being written in FORTRAN, but less and less. However that's irrelevant. FORTRAN is used in simulations on literally all of the top super computers....

There is nothing special or wrong about this. This is super common. Tons of vendors still sell DOS-powered industrial equipment. The alternative would...

That has been tried, but in the end it failed to work properly. See this thread:

I am not the ultimate expert on this topic, but what would be the point of that? If you create larger textures in the CPU, then upload them to the GPU...

(One of AwesomeWM dev here, we use Cairo)

Cairo/QPainter are dead ends. They are very good at what they do, but the `context` object and...

DMA buffers cannot work on GPU accelerated toolkits. There is never a pixmap buffer (beside in the screen itself). All components are either composited...

You are mistaken too, but I admit this is confusing. QtQuick1 widgets are drawn on the CPU (individually) then placed using the GPU (compositing). This...

Because it takes about 1 year-person to properly port to a device where existing drivers already exist. The Nexus 5 is just starting to run fine with...

As schmalzler the Wayland version of Awesome is Way-Cooler. Right now the main developer is busy rustifying wlroot and Awesome running inside Way-Cooler...

(dev here)

Awesome/Way-Cooler are not really tiny tiling manager. The featureset is much closer to XFCE than, let say, i3 or DWM. AwesomeWM...

Dev here,

Because Awesome let user use raw code in their settings and extension. This code uses Cairo and these users developed it with pixels...

At this point I would advice anyone looking at this not to try it. Really, I operate oVirt (without the RHEV doc) since 2 years and it is a nightmare....

[Elv13]

Well, I had the opposite situation. I knew about oVirt and not Proxmox when I built my build cluster. My use case is mostly booting more computer when...

No, that's ion3 and that was the end of it. AwesomeWM then got most of its users....
