How come C# isn't more popular when it's basically Java but better? Is it because people distrust a language maintained by Microsoft, or does the JVM have non-obvious but crucial advantages over the CLR?

>(windows has a small minority share of the server OS market)
those kinds of stat charts only point to public web servers, and maybe databases

Windows Server is used for a lot of enterprise software which isn't exposed to the internet or advertised online. C#, being a Java clone, also shares its primary use case of web-enabled enterprise software
pretty much all companies use Active Directory and other Microsoft/Office/SharePoint stuff, all of which run on Windows Server

The standard library has generally very nice naming conventions.
But go try explain the difference between NET Framework, .NET Core and .NET (by which I mean .NET 5 and up).
.NET in itself is already a godawful name for a general purpose computing platform that isn't really focused on web shit at all.

And remember, Microsoft was waging a proxy war on Linux via SCO at the time C# arrived. It was not just Windows only, it was hostile to other platforms for a long time. Everyone assumed the Mono developers would eventually be sued out of existence by Microsoft.

What's the consensus on msbuild when it comes to C# development?
Usually I see people hating on it, although I'm not sure if that comes more from C++ devs working with it.
I had to get a little bit more in-depth with it recently, and I found it to be rather pleasant.
Modern msbuild is very flexible and expressive.and consise IMO.

I do hate how the most popular IDE for csharp (VS) basically hides all that flexibility from the average dev cause they wanna give people fucking GUIs to configure their builds, and solution files are an absolute disaster even with the recent modernization efforts.

But ignoring those is easy if you don't use VS and then you just have a good (and starndardized) build system.
It being standardized is also worth alot.

longsoon processors are running a novel architecture that only has a handful of linux distros that support it, so unless you can read chinese i don't really see how you're going to even use it.

zhaoxin processors are based on patents VIA stole from intel like thirty years ago and when intel bought them out and shuttered the company five years ago VIA sold their remaining IP to a chinese company.

hygon processors are literally zen 2 on a worse process node. same architecture and performance.

all three of them are going to have massive backdoors

>the batteries will eventually die and you wont be able to replace them
Skill issue. Replaced batteries on sony wf1kxm3 in like half an hour for both buds. Batteries where like $5 on aliexpress.
>>
>>107841073
>this is an old problem, most buds over $40 have the feature to connect to and switch between multiple devices
They continually tell me this and every time I fall for it and buy one, it ends up only working smoothly sometimes. The best I've used is a Qudelix 5K but that only works as well as it does because it maintains a connection to 2 devices at once and swaps between them based on which is higher priority. But even that makes its own issues, like a phone stealing audio from a computer to play a notification ding. Apart from that, Samsung seems to handle device switching best, but even so there's the occasional time it randomly doesn't and I have to either take a call holding the phone to my ear or tell the person on the other end to hold on while I fuck with Bluetooth settings until it works again.

Pulling a plug out of one thing and putting it in another works 100% of the time, never happens when you don't want it, and only takes a second.
>>
>>107841183
I have a cheap JBL. It prioritizes whatever device is playing audio first and only switches if that device stops. I don't use it for calls so maybe that's where our experience differs.

>>107839441

The real problem, the battery will eventually degrade in 1 year or so, I know this very well because I use wireless exclusively and I have to replace them every 9 months or so, because once it starts to degrade you only got 1 month or 2 before it sharply degrades even further. Now, actual battery time will depend on the price, cheap ones do like 4-5 hours while expensive ones can go up to 11 hours, HOWEVER, charging these things for like 5 minutes gives you like 1 hour. literally if you're out of battery pop then in the charging pod and wait a few minutes and bang you've got another 1 or so it's very fast.
these thing also have high latency but if you're only listening to music it doesn't matter, many of them come with a low latency mode too.

Mostly ellipsis, omitting whole words because they're implied by the context. But they can be quite dangerous in AI image generation, AI can and will make assumptions that are not actually warranted by the context, but they're nevertheless preferred by its safety guidelines or whatever else is overriding its normal "logic".

Not that anon, but I have version 10.10.2 pinned on my arch install because the current ones have regressions that cause hardware acceleration, encoding, decoding to not work properly.
Example, in my pinned version I can stream the direct file to my tv without any transcoding, newer versions either transcode on the exact same file or don't work at all.

i read the book and was disappointed to find out that nedry actually had less character development than he does in the movie. his antagonist arc is almost nonexistant outside of a few comments he makes early on. he is always desribed as ugly, awkward, and dirty. he is never shown as competent despite supposedly being the mastermind behind the entire park systems. meanwhile his death is incredibly gruesome and the author does not hesitate to remind you he deserved to die. then he beomes an afterthought. you are expected to hate the character outright.

in the movie, he is more nuanced
