I recall this also being the reason why Windows Phone didn't take off either. Perhaps it was forward thinking because desu when people are putting their credit card and medical info on their device then perhaps being a paranoid schizo thinking developers are against you didn't such a bad thing.

Had HTML5 webapps became the universal app format, like it was supposed to be, Firefox OS would have had tons of apps. But Google and Apple killed Flash then sabotaged HTML5 webapps in order to protect their appstore with 30% tax business. This shit is also what kept FirefoxOS from ever succeeding.

Technology wasn't there yet. Web APIs were not yet powerful enough to recreate mobile apps 1:1 using only web technologies.

The hardware wasn't there yet. Low-end mobile hardware was too slow to run web apps properly, so the devices were infamously slow.

Google and WhatsApp sabotaged it by refusing to add support for it.

A mix. Some teams work at an HQ office in Texas, but engineering is all remote. The majority of engineers are in cities across Texas and Colorado. I know there is exactly one in California, and exactly one in New York (pretty sure not New York City though). Pretty sure one in North Carolina as well?
I know some mid-levels own houses. So we're paying well enough by standards in at least some of those places, just not the eye-watering Big Tech or VC-backed salaries.

C++20 added modules and C++23 added standard library modules. Why hasn't C caught on and moved away from file inclusion, like every other language?
>inb4 C++ still doesn't have any working implementations of modules
That doesn't answer the question. Surely the benefits must outweigh the pitfalls?

>A "problem" that C mitigates by not having templates entirely and just having void pointers?
(nta)
you say that like its a bad thing...
void * is not only an anonymization measure, but also the canonical way to tell the compiler to not multiply your pointer arithmetic with your type size
and you dont need templates when you can force inline
granted, force inlines are compiler specific features
but thats still part of the c toolchain, ergo, part of c framework, even if not in the standard proper

C doesn't have templates

C++ modules will never ever be widespread, because it requires C++20 and it requires build system changes (CMake didnt't support modules with the Makefile generator yet last time I tried it)

Ever tried messing with BCLK overclocking? I had my old Athlon II X4 620 running at 3.25GHz instead of the stock 2.6GHz using that, just make sure to put the memory clock multiplier to something that results in speeds close to what that's rated for.

I actually reseat my gpu a few times a year. Sometimes the ram too. I have no idea what is actually wrong with it other than when it overheats in the hot mediterranean summer the gpu just shuts down and won't work again unless it's reseated. Most of the time that fixes the issue but once in a while you have to reseat the ram too. One obvious solution is to fix the overheating issue by reapplying thermal paste and thermal pads but since it happens only a couple time per year I can't be bothered.
I blame Valorant.

You are missing the point. Gnome is perfectly following the wayland protocol. Wayland allows these issues to exist because it's designed that way. Gnome has said that they will never support setting window position relative to monitor edge, and kde plasma will also not support getting window title (among other features). This is a fundamental wayland issue with regards to its policy.
>>
>>103391168
not really
wayland just expects the DE to do more, gnome is on the decline and is developed by a bunch of retards so I fully expect them to throw a fit and not support functions like this

Hi /g/

I recently bought a pile of microphone stuff for 50€ for just the one calibration mic(genelec 9300a), but now that the stuff arrived i googled what the rest was. I found out i got some stuff that might be worth reselling but i dont know who would buy it.

I got:
- 2x sennheiser sk100 g4 bodypack transmitter
- 5x akg pt470 pocket transmitter
- 4x que audio da12 microphones

They all look to cost almost 300€ a piece online but i dont see anyone reselling them so im not sure if there exists a market for them.

Any insight would be lovely

The powers that be will soon be retreating below the ground and in the process discard 99% of their control structures like government bodies, intelligence personel, military enforcers, think-thank masterminds, religious figures, mercantile and economic assets, the whole managerial, bureaucratic and parasitic class, and countless other occulted elites and puppets across various fields which have been hard at work in aiding and abeting them for thousands of years to shackle and enslave the rest of humanity to their doctrines and systems of control.
This is the moment we've all been waiting for anons, the Great Equalizer will bring about the extermination campaigns most of us and our ancestors could never even have dream of. The Authority currently employes hundreds of millions of men and women across various governing bodies, industries and departments, and they will all perish in a righteous rage this world has never seen before and perhaps never will see again after. Six thousand years of lies, atrocities, misery and untold suffering are coming to an end anons, and all those currently working for the system, including those retired or decomissioned, will be hunted down and wiped off from the face of the earth for their complicity and duplicity.

Ducks always walk together, so unless the divider was spinning rapidly enough, they should always be in the same semicircle.

Ducks don't care about math.

If the divider was spinning in that scenario, the only way the ducks would be in the same semicircle 100% of the time would be if the rotational speed of the divider matched the ducks movement perfectly.
