>>107697089
Half of these are from years ago, the other half doesn't use the xwayland-native-scale that forces xwayland clients to render in fractions and neither of them are about how gnome-shell renders itself or its content but only about xwayland. Wayland clients get correctly rendered at the set fractional scaling and so does the shell itself.
And of course none of these are about GTK (gnome shell doesn't use GTK) which used to do the nearest interger downscaling fractional scaling until they wrote a bunch of new backends that allowed them to do it correctly without breaking the API and having to wait until GTK 5 to do it. The new backends are the new opengl one and the Vulkan one which became the default.

Hardware-wise, you can already run some pretty big local LLMs on Strix Halo (AMD), Mac Studio (Apple), and DGX Spark (Nvidia). Intel plans on selling something similar, too. Heck, even a 64GB Mac Mini can run some reasonably large models. For smoler LLMs, just use a GPU.
As for the actual local LLMs, maybe give Llama (Facebook), Gemma (Google), and GPT-OSS (OpenAI) a try, among others.

Reminder of the following:

1. Google will merge ChromeOS and Android to form a FOSS Linux-based desktop OS that will be 100% free to download and use.

https://www.androidauthority.com/aluminium-os-android-for-pcs-3619092/

2. Windows will be severely affected by this new, totally free competitor and will bleed marketshare.

3. All existing Linux desktop environments will be totally outclassed by Google's top secret desktop UI and underlying OS. Even Linux users will give up on shit like Mint and just use Google's desktop for their daily driver OS.

2026 will finally be the year of the Linux desktop, and it will be because Google will do to desktops what they did to phones.

You know it's coming. Don't act like this was a surprise.

From personal experience, most to least favourite:

>C#
Used daily for work to build backend systems running on Azure. Easy to use, good typing system, package manager, not overly verbose. Overall a decent middle ground between low level control and high level abstraction. I'd use this for business critical systems that need to be rock solid.

>C++
Great low level control, massive performance if you know how to optimize well. Can be extremely verbose and borderline arcane. Fucking hate writing all the shitloads of boilerplate code all the time but I still love it for high performance software such as games or graphics intensive stuff.

>C
Nice and simple, good language to start learning programming but after that phase I never used it again.

>Python
Decent for one-off projects such as quick scripts or proof of concepts. Amazing high level abstraction but absolute shit low level control so not suitable for high performance stuff. Actually it's way too abstracted for me and too easy to write shitty inefficient systems since you have no clue what's really going on. Very easy to hash out some quick functionality by glueing some libs togethet. That's mostly what I see it as: a glue language. Lacks a proper type system. Duck typing is fucking retarded and is my main reason to hate Python. Unfortunately I can't escape it in the data science world.

Is this idea behind a "lisp machine" that the entire system is one huge lisp image?
Meaning that if you launch an application it's not loading up a new lisp environment, it's merely loading those functions into the existing lisp image along with all other software?

If so then that would lead to fundamentally different ideas about how we do computing. For example, how do you run multiple instances of the same program then? You wouldn't. Instead you would merely have different objects that represent those different instances, and each instance object gets passed to the same functions loaded in memory. Right?

Is my thinking correct on all this, or am I way off?
>>
>>107699518
Basically yes, the idea is to remove the separation between kernel and user and between processes and have effectively the entire computer be just one big process all sharing memory and resources.
Isolation and security are accomplished just through environments and closures.
To a certain extent you can even do away with the entire file system and just have the disk be a single huge swap partition that contains the system image. Shutdown is just (save-lisp-and-die), startup is just seamlessly resuming computation ala hibernation.

lisp machines are a remnant of the past. they do not make any sense in the modern world because of glaring security issues. do you really want some smelly webjeet to be able to send code lisp code to your machine that gets ran as any program would? that being said emacs is as close as you can get to a modern lisp machine, and it can replace much of your computing if you want.
