They remove the support to turn off DirectWrite because of their code removal for XP and Vista.
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=579196
Which leaves all the ones without a proper Full HD setup with blurry fonts and bad rendering.
Well done fucking assholes, well done!
>>54925703
>XP and Vista
It's time to move one
>>54925703
I don't see how that's going mad. They're just deprecating an OS that Microsoft has stopped supporting, and which now has a dwindling userbase.
Cleaning up the code rot of supporting XP is nothing but a good thing.
>>54925753
Well, it affects also tons of people with no HD setup. If you have only a minor graphic chip and no full hd monitor, you are fucked.
hey shills tell me why should I spend fortune on GTX 1080 or 1070 when I can have RX480 8GB for 250$
isn't it more than enough for 1080p gayming?
also hbm vs gddrx5?
>>54925634
hbm = we 4k now
1080p = rx poo in loo
You shouldn't. An RX 480 is more than enough for 1080p gaymen.
RX 480 8GB version's supposed to cost $229, and for 1080p gaming it's more than enough.

What is the best beginner book to Haskell?
Why would you want to learn an obsolete esoteric language?
Tomorrow go find the Dive into python on the web. Don't fucking worry if you get nothing at first. Then navigate to python.org and learn the standard library by bloody hard. Then grind, and I meant it, bitch, you grind the pythonian coding convention PEP8 until you know it by rote. When you write your first own imageboard, picking up html+css in the process, time to download and study any python-based asynchronous web-server. I recommend Tornado or Gevent. By the time you alter your imageboard so that it can at least manage giving off 5k request per second, you'd be ready to move on: the intriguing world of high-load programming at your feed. Apache Hadoop, ultrafast asynchronous key-value storages, MapReduce. It won't be long for you to laugh at the fuck ups of NEETs and poor Slavs that live off by sucking cocks and no longer than in half a year your income will grow to the point when any bitch will get wet from only a mention of your salary.

Because people are shit that are watching shit content what makes producers make shit content.
Something that is relevant and that provides knowledge, isn't fun anymore.
That's why we have eyecandy brochure reading video channels that are not focused on any relevant stuff that is actually useful, but instead on "look at this new thing that costs $$$$"
for the dank memes of course
Even people in the comments have been saying that LTT became complete shit after the move.
Funnily enough, their other channel where they just do random shit has been constantly getting better since then.
Just got the Moto x play

anyone here also using a glass mousepad? had mine for 8 years and still works as good as day one.
>>54924851
Wouldn't that wear-out your mousepad, anon?
>>54926829
what do you mean? my desk is glass, but so is the mousepad. you just have to change the mouse feet every now and then
>>54924851
I got an aluminum mouse pad (razer manticor). I cant imagine life without it now. The texture from cloth pads was causing my high DPI mouse to jump a pixel randomly, creating a low level of chronic stress when trying to select text. The smooth aluminum surface stopped that for good. Feelsgoodman.jif

I have also restarted my system and tried Singularity, still not working, worked yesterday

are you retarded?
it literally tells you what you're doing wrong
find a .sh script inside the game folder that starts the game
Why do we even use QWERTY keyboards anymore? They were literally designed to slow down typing.
>>54924361
Because relearning to type is a pain. Besides emacs has made me immune to rsi and qwerty induced inefficiency
>They were literally designed to slow down typing.
I used to believe in urban legends too, anon.
>>54924361
>Designed to slow you down
No
>Designed to minimise the likelihood of neighbouring keys being pressed in succession
Yes
QWERTY is garbage but it is one of those things where it is probably easier to just learn to deal with than to try and fight. I mean, Dvorak is an improvement but still suffers from QWERTYs biggest flaws like unnecessarily staggered rows or modifier keys like shift being pressed by the weakest fingers. Even if you dealt with those issues you could argue as a programmer you use operators and numbers far more than characters so should you use a special layout for programmers? And then maybe even a particular layout for C vs Lisp say?
Unless you want to go full autism and get some whacky racers layout it is easier to just take a deep breath and deal with shitty QWERTY.
Why are there more viable tech community projects coming out of Tumblr than /g/?
>>54924325
/g/ is the new /r/apple
>"technology" board
Thanks millineals
>>54924325
Oh look, another worthless Raspberry Pi.
What is it good for? Exposed PCBs are soo #Nerd and #Geek, right?
>>54924325
/g/ has never been about community projects. I use this board to get tech news usually about cpu and gpu's.
do you all realize that the slow down of moore's law is a good thing
programmers won't make even huger applications
maybe will even make them smaller & faster
>>54924246
>huger
Stopped reading there.
>>54924246
>implying today coders are competent
...But the hardware itself won't get faster so your computer still won't run as fast as The Flash.
What language looks best on a resume? Just graduated from university and want to learn a language while I look for a job. I know a bit of python.

Each os has advantages and disadvantages over the others, no one os is the best fit for everyone, why can't we all just get along? Which os do you use, what do you like/dislike about it what else have you tried?
I'm currently using fedora, with xfce since its lightweight and responsive on my shitty laptop, I've also tried most of the common distros out there and Windows since xp through to 10, skipped 8 though since I found it horrible to work with and not a huge fan of 10 either but have to use it for work
>>54924175
I use all of them.
Windows at home cuz games.
MacOS cuz workstation.
Linux cuz server.
FreeBSD also cuz server.
OpenBSD cuz firewall.
>>54924175
OSX is fine I guess, I just don't get the logic behind the UI and restrictions.
Linux is what I use daily, I like it, but I wish there was a solid CAD software except openscad and BricsCAD.
Windows has NOTHING to offer except for its legacy (a shit ton of software). I used to run it for games, but not anymore - I can now run games on Linux well enough, and I don't even have time for games now.
I'm currently running GNU/Linux on my laptop because I simply prefer it's handling of resources and customization options, at home on my desktop I'm rocking a Windows 10 install because I'm a man child and play vidya. As for MacOS I actually haven't had the chance to use it yet I've been curios to the point of being tempted to make a hackintosh but haven't been fucked to do it yet.
