@selea idk how willing you are to but can't you make your own?

@kaia 7900 GRE is (rasterization performance-wise) equal-ish to the RTX4070 Super/RTX3090 on Nvidia's side.

@kura

@selea I do still have an account but I mostly just follow game-related stuff.

@solidsanek Rawr x3

@woodpunk I love the fact they even sent back the old blade.

@GustavinoBevilacqua Advertising is what allows you to get started.
Good service is what allows you to keep in business.

@woodpunk

@kaia If you mean after all is set and done (puberty finished, and thus"final size" reached)? Not rly.

It can still vary a bit with drugs and alcohol use (known as the "Pilly Willy" or "Whiskey Dick") but it's mostly just "around the same size" otherwise.

@Mitsu Merde.

@Mitsu I won as well... Then again, I'd get some good laughs regardless of who'd win. :yay:

@Mitsu 6000 bucks just for the letter "S" seems kinda pricey...

Going from pain to spain.

@skoranda If you'll allow me to pitch in, I've been using Garage for almost 3 years now and it's been pretty nice.
Managing it can be a hassle at first, since it's CLI only (and some of the commands can be a bit "annoying" to understand) but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty simple.

Updates are very simple (just create a backup, replace the single self-contained binary, and off you go), it has been very stable and fairly performant (for as performant as my server's storage is).

I haven't used any clustering yet but it doesn't sound difficult to set up either.

The community on Matrix is also very friendly if you need any help.

All in all, can recommend.

@selea

@kaia Gonna be honest, I'm still gonna be on Firefox for the time-being.
Probably moving to Zen once it has matured more.
On phone, I'm also still on Firefox.

@solidsanek She looks cute... But knowing the sauce ("Sweet Suffering"), would not plap.

@kaia Thunderbird on Linux and Windows.

@kaia Giggety.

@kaia Feeling icky or ticky? :yay:

*badum tssss*

@kaia I've seen it so many times while trying to find solutions for problems (could be games or IT stuff) and it's seriously annoying...

@kaia Marin is always welcome. : >
@romin

@Suiseiseki At this point, you just keep moving the goalpost to make JS look worse than it really is...
We went from "running JS" to "compiling the runtime"...

What's next? Linux kernel bad because it takes many CPU cycles and huge amounts of RAM to compile with chances it'll fail to compile multiple times too? :stallman_thaenkin:
I wouldn't describe such setup anywhere near "lean" but it's at least mean to one person and their computer. :yay:
GCC also takes a huge amount of CPU cycles to compile and install with chances it'll fail multiple times too... GCC bad!
And well... GCC doesn't even come out of the box with most common distros...
Oh wait... Most distro's are just passing around "mystery meat binaries", so most distros bad, must build entire distro yourself so you have 100% control over everything!...
Oh wait, that takes many CPU cycles and can fail multiple times too...
So best is just not running any software, no CPU cycles wasted anywhere in the pipeline! 🤤

@Suiseiseki I mean, the JS program isn't even that small and the Pi is effectively equivalent to a PC from around the early 2000's.
Even at peaks, it barely gets above 5% usage on its CPU (memory usage sits around 70MB including the entire OS).

And yes, most JS you find on *websites* is overly bloated.
But that's not the fault of JS.
I personally think it's unfair to label JS (the language) as "a big evil" because devs tend to make scuffed choices.
JS itself can be quite lean and mean (altho it's indeed nowhere near as fast as a compiled language).

I mostly use Deno because JS is my go-to language.
I could learn Perl (altho I already can write some Nim) but I'd need to re-learn a lot for what is effectively very little gains where it matters for me.
It's a balancing act between raw efficiency and "ease of use".
