Step 1. Stop use that botnet

It isn't exactly much to do with Chrome itself, its more the fact that Winderps fucked up the restore capability. Isn't the tab list for the session saved in some file somewhere?

Anyone have any sort of clue how to recover this?

Working on a roguelike, just started. Feel like I'm stressing too much about the architecture but I don't want to regret choices later.

2nd for Tk

Trying to decide between using Scheme and Idris for making a game

>hoards of chinese shit that might or might not even work

Well, it works. Thats their competitive advantage.

i don't particular care one way or another about apple and honestly i don't know what direction people will claim i'm being a zealot or shill, but i'll preempt that by saying i don't give a fuck one way or another. apple's a company and they sell products. to the extent that their responsibility in society is to their shareholders to sell lots of stuff for as much as possible, they generally do a good job.

the argument for most of these things is that you're buying into an ecosystem where things work better than the piecemeal system you get elsewhere. a macbook charger has a magnetic breakaway and is consistent with virtually all other apple laptops out there (except the most recent generation). wireless earbuds reportedly just work. pairing is fast and easy. i have never found apple earbuds to fit me well, but for the apparently 80-90% of people who find they fit great, that's a great experience. the stylus is designed to work better with the iPad than any other generic stylus works with any arbitrary (windows or android-based) tablet. is that improved experience worth more? yes. is it worth that much more? obviously that depends on the value of that experience vs the value of that amount of money to you.

of course there's this status aspect to it, but apple products have generally become so common that the notion that you stand out for having an iPhone or something is nonsense. have you ever even seen someone call attention to the fact that another person had an iPhone? excluding the first ~2 weeks after a product refresh involving outwardly visible changes, have you ever seen anyone call attention to anyone's laptop, tablet, or smartphone? conspicuous consumption only applies when the thing is perceived as especially luxurious. maybe android phones have gotten a lot better, or maybe iphones have slid in prestige, but the fact is that it's not that conspicuous anymore.

>Just how the fuck does Apple get away with anything.
what does that even mean? what does "get away with" mean in this context? do you expect the police to come and do something? do you think there's going to be a big consumer backlash over prices being kind of high?

united airlines had like a slew of videos of their employees beating the shit out of various passengers and they didn't see an appreciable loss of business. you're clearly expecting a level of outrage on the part of consumers that is completely unwarranted.

>why use this?
Because it werks for me ;^)

>>61531555
Qt is good but looks terrible on non-Qt DE's
GTK is 'ight but looks like shit on Windows and macOS

If you have a good trackpad, you don't need a mouse. Basically, unless you own a MBP, you need a mouse.
BT is probably the best because it requires no dongles and is more power efficient.

>>61531577
I bought an xps 13 and the trackpad is kinda slow, if i try to speed it up it takes straigter lines and its hard to navigate accurately

nigger i run 98

you'll be fine

Do you have time to discuss about our Lord and Saviour Gentoo and how one would go about installing it?

But seriously, why not install some flavor of Linux on those clunkers?

>>61531459
Why are you reading comments?

because this way you have to scroll related videos which are paid/ sponsored

Also a greater chance you'll find something to watch next

>>61531474
They make me lol (laugh out loud) when I read them.

>>61531400

Don't listen to the adults, go for more cores. My CPU is still relevant thanks to software now taking advantage of those extra threads that it has.

Because I avoid DEs that suck.

This might be the dumbest thing I've read all day.

I did on my portable install, I remember having to modify the script in some way, I think it was pointing to the wrong compat directory at the time or some shit, I think this was more than a year ago now.

>>61531378
Can you try to remember then post what you did to make it work?

I am using wine for this at the moment.
