that’s just how Ed Zitron always writes. he makes some good points usually despite that, i wouldn’t dismiss him just because of it.

his blog is widely known and read among tech workers. i saw another one of his articles posted on hacker news just this morning.

when you buy from yourself instead of from a different market participant that is considered wash trading and it is fraud

paper profits

when you buy from yourself instead of from a different market participant that is considered wash trading and it is fraud

they should never have let the idea gotten so far… that it became public knowledge. was a fucking stupid idea

yeah the price is too much. something like $40 would be great

no read! only comment

looking forward to leaving the tech industry for farming or woodworking

that is my dream. dev in usa working way too much

do you really not know the answer to that?

Each GPU has a limited number of display outputs (also called display pipelines or display controllers). as an example, the macbook air can only support the built-in display and one external display. This is a hardware limitation of its GPU architecture. When using multiple displays on laptops that support it, some systems can utilize both the integrated GPU and discrete GPU simultaneously to drive different displays.

they are both like 20 year-old operating systems (linux distros)

does it swap if you hit windows+P? as in hold down the windows key and press the P at the same time? you should be able to hit it a few times to toggle the external display mode. i haven’t used windows much in the last decade so that might not work any longer

linux desperately needs/needed something like apple for macOS to drive usability. the steam deck is exactly that- one hardware set to really nail the UX and then expand from there.

thanks for the recommendation, I’m going to give that a try myself!

that’s why i switched to a mac instead of linux. i love linux on my servers, but for day to day productivity? nothing beats the “turn it on and go” of a mac. of course you pay for it with money (for a mac) or time (for linux)

but at least i don’t get full screen ads for windows 11!

thank goodness for bsd/mac/linux

that’s why companies don’t hire employees any more

money grubbers, always grubbing for money. discusting

same on Voyager (in post view)

they start around $10 or $20. don’t think you need to waste hundreds for a few extra ports
