I suspect the studies with small numbers of spread out participants are missing the inflation effects.

We need a study of a whole town to see if giving everyone extra money is going to make the price of everything go up by the same amount.

I'm hopeful this is a good idea and would likely vote for it, but I worry a bit that it will be pointless in the end.

Doom 2016 plays well on almost anything. It was the beginning of the self scaling graphics and rendering to maintain high frame rates.

Competitive (professional) gamers?

Seems there are diminishing returns, but at least some gains are measurable at 360.

Same. Also feels a bit safer connecting to public wifi.

It is being discussed because we're in the middle of the transition from X to Wayland. Before there wasn't much discussion. In a few years when it settles out there probably won't be much discussion.

Windows and Mac have never had a choice. There might have been significant changes to a window manager layer, but it would have been part of a larger version upgrade. Like between windows 3.1 and 95 or OS 9 to OS X. The visible changes would be closer to desktop environment like KDE and Gnome in Linux.

As much as I hate to admit it, the conversations that happen because I overheard another conversation a couple cubes over do have value.

I use the KDE integration, but it seems to create a new path every time I open a file. That breaks the recent file list in apps.

Is there a good solution for that? It seems like most of the projects to do that have been abandoned.

Maybe not once quantum computers become more common.

Our current encryption methods can be represented as wave functions. This allows a sufficiently large quantum computer to solve for the keys in very little time.

There are new algorithms being developed that should defend against this. So you may still be correct.

I think that's what the kerberos is there to solve. I've heard that it isn't that bad to set up. I haven't tried and just stuck with SMB.

Except they can be hosted by the person/company making the software. This always seemed more trustworthy than AUR to me.

Of course there are also community PPAs that would need the same scrutiny as AUR packages.

Tab groups for the friendly name at the top of a set. Edge implemented vertical tabs. Not as good as tree, but better than across the top.
