In hindsight, Microsoft should have just quietly switched Internet Explorer to Chromium instead of wasting time with Edge and having two browsers running at the same time. The same with not migrating all of the control panel all at once.We could have had all the web browsers converge on Webkit in 2008, now we have a mess. I still think Firefox should dump gecko as too many websites don't work properly anymore.
Finally, a browser thread. Alternative to Firefox that's not a fork of it or Chromium? Also, light on RAM consumption.
>>107834378>Microsoft should have just quietly switched Internet Explorer to Chromium instead of wasting time with Edge and having two browsers running at the same time.EdgeHTML was the fastest browser engine at the time of its death. The only reason they dropped it was Google fucking with all their sites to constantly break it.We'll never have scrolling as smooth as it was in old Edge.

>>107831093There will be jail if they lose all their investor's money and sell the company in the cheap to Google or some other company with lots of money.They will rush towards an IPO to avoid this, and they likely have time to get there. The ends justifying the means have less to do with it than just simply stupid boomers in DC who can barely operate a phone not understanding the tech and falling for Jewish tricks, or being Jews themselves and always looking to take more goyem resources and give them to Israel. There is no finish line with current (LLM-based) AI tech. It would be like saying if we just pursue phone tech far enough, it will allow us to fly. It just doesn't make any sense.

This simple idea of having 2 USB-C ports CANNOT be done because it stops the zoomer from buying wireless ear buds(battery inside will always go to shit and unusable in ~3 years)and you would be stuck using extremely affordable, high quality audio headphones or in ear buds(that are a bit too green for the planet in 2026) also the 3.5mm headphone jack looks like a penis that goes inside a hole and basically why aren't you a wireless, constantly charging gay trans in 2026 right now.am i finally getting it /g?

>>107834647>Do you say it sucks because you play old gamesNo, graphical glitches everywhere.and these are screenshotable so it's not really a hardware malfunction. and on Linux it's much worse as if you use a browser (firefox based) it hangs your graphics drive also known as xe, so disable hardware acceleration.I am not a heavy PC gamer, I bought it for other stuff.It also happens the most is on electron apps(both OSes), GTK apps and the windows taskbar (rare). Surprisingly everything else like QT or other Win32 doesn't have these issues.

Why does it seem like they're trying to kill Windows on purpose? Is this the year of Linux?
>>107834516Because the (((shareholders))) put a yes-man pajeet in charge and they're demanding more AI slop.
>Why does it seem like they're trying to kill Windows on purpose?Because they are, I'm surprised they didn't do it 15 years ago. Calling it "Vista" was Ballmer's subtle effort to try and dilute the Windows brand.
>Microslop Pajeetware 11
>>107834516>Why does it seem like they're trying to kill Windows on purpose?Because it's been going down-hill for well over a decade at this point, so yeah it's going to look like that. I don't think they're trying to "kill" it as much as they are terminally incompetent and also actively malicious in that they want you to buy their subscription shit rather than run normal programs on your PC.
It's no longer Microslop, it's Microprison with gamers forced to use it because of anti cheat and corporates forced to use it because of DRM.
Is polars + plotnine currently the best tool on Earth for complex plotting? Or does the crown still go to the tidyverse?
>>107833389It's not a big deal to pipe through melt and you retain all the other flexibility of ggplot. Procedural plotting always becomes a giant fucking mess.I'd agree that if you're making a few very important charts for publication you should be as manual as possible, but actual investigations involve a lot of adhoc plotting and every python solution I've tried is shit for that. In the time you polished up one beautiful python plot (using matplotlib's ugly api because everything else has limitations) the guy with ggplot made 100 different cross sections and filters to understand every nuance of your dataset. tidyverse still mogsPolars vs data.table is a harder question though, polars is so nice as an api but somehow data.table ends up getting shit done faster for most uses
I expect python libraries to get better more than R libraries because data science is going to be increasingly focused on ML more than any other field and python, mostly by accident than anything, ate R's lunch when it comes to doing ML
>>107834660Didn't post image.
>>107834660If it was that simple it would've happened by now, python has dominated ML for a long time. It has a ton of great libraries available but somehow they are all still worse than ggplot. desu it's possible that they simply made too many instead of working on polishing one good one. The other curse is that the only common ground between the mess of libraries (and thus what works with everything) is matplotlib. which is ass
>>107834733Judging by the thread (unless its just you samefagging), it already happened. Who here is talking good things about tidyverse? Pic unrelated but made with matplotlib and seaborn.

Anybody see the NVIDIA G-SYNC Pulsar? I have been waiting for something like this since the days of CRT came to an end. Will it be worth the hype?
