How come Electron gets all the hate when it enables developers to make interesting desktop apps again? Other GUI toolkits BTFO

You cannot trust anything that can be dismantled with a single NSL.
Yeah. I'm going to trust the Russian Facebook guy that had his website(VK) turn into the Russian spying social network. What's next? I'm going to trust the zuck to provide me with a messaging application that has end to end encryption and is truly not backdoored?

Do you do any hardware acceleration like OpenCL or CUDA?
>>60863379
you make 3d graphics by finding the solution of a line equation and other geometry
usually this involves sending out primary rays using a focus point and a grid that represents each pixel and then recursively casting rays for refraction and reflection at collision points

So the Prius gets roughly 5 miles more per gallon when driving in the city then on the highway. All the explanations I see says that this because of regenerative braking.
I understand that energy can be saved from regenerative braking but obviously its not 100% efficient... or >100% efficient which it would have to be in order to achieve more mpg city, right?Looking at this from an energy standpoint and I can't understand how stopping and accelerating, even with regenerative braking, is more efficient than maintaining speed.
Someone help me out here.

cuz the car cant use electirc battey motor if it going too fast.
If u brakin around town n shit it means hybrid HYBRID Mode so like its a mix of battery motor and gasoline
doin 60? ur whip aint usin no battery son. petrolium fuckin only
It needs petrol to maintain highway speeds.
In city it uses electricity
>>60862914
>>60862952
so its just misleading because it doesn't include battery usage in the mpg? I also thought the battery was only charged by gas engine / braking or do you have to plug in a hybrid to use the battery?

O denizens of /g/! We call upon you to take control of your digital lives, to reject proprietary ideologies and hidden agendas! For many of you, it may already be too late. Your pineal glands calcified and brainwaves permanently altered to serve the forces of maleficence. Take heed, lest you fall into the traps set by the Evil Ones! These beasts will stop at nothing to have total reign over your "private" and "public" lives. Hearken unto the call of the Ancient Being, spreading the wisdom of the True Path! Only through uprising against the totalitarian regime by the use of Free Software and Hardware, will they cease to control us! One simple change would be to obfuscate your Internet traffic through trusted VPNs that use architectures that are known to be safe, such as pre-Oracle SPARC or MIPS. Naysayers jabber about, saying they have nothing to hide, but in truth, everyone has something to hide, no matter how small it may be. Thus, we must again return to the GNUtanari and see that it rise above the forces of oppression! This is the only way that we, as a species, will ever be truly Free.

Just use Tor, VPNs can't be trusted
