  • Probably true everywhere in the world, but may vary across fields of occupation.

  • Well, Typst isn't directly comparable to plain TeX given how low level plain TeX is. Typst also poses itself as a LaTeX alternative, rather than that of plain TeX. So, I think, it'd be more prudent to compare between Typst and LaTeX.

    For beginners, Typst is much easier to get into compared to LaTeX. Typst is also much faster at compiling documents. Error messages are also clearer in Typst. Typst itself is compiled to a single binary, so local installation is as easy as just downloading it and putting it into a directory that's available in $PATH.

    I might as well also mention that the Typst web app runs on webassembly (meaning that the browser does the compiling instead of some server), so there is no compile duration limit like that of Overleaf.

  • If I have to see you whining about windows, you have to see me shilling for linux.

  • Yes, LaTeX is huge with its many years of development and layers upon layers of abstractions glued on top of one another. This is also why a new start was necessary, this is where Typst comes in, in my opinion.

  • Check out the absolute chads who created typst.app while writing their thesis because they were frustrated with LaTeX

  • Ente

  • That's just running a full fat installation of Windows.

  • By complaining about copypastas you are just making it worse. Can't you see that? Every time you comment and complain about people posting the same comments each time just adds to the incentive for people who think they are funny to continue. I am willing to bet that this comment will turn into a *** copypasta at this point just because of how "funny" and "ironic" it would be to make a copypasta out of a comment complaining about copypastas.

  • You had none to begin with.

  • I have one from 2015 that's still working just fine.

  • Discovery is a waste of time in the sense that it's not entertaining.

  • Watching Star Trek: Discovery is a waste of time though

  • Just use water.

  • Can you boot in safe mode and install the new open source drivers?

  • Emulation and piracy.

  • Firefox on a server?

  • You can use Logitech's Onboard Memory Manager app which is under 20MB and doesn't require installation.

  • The driver itself is probably a few megabytes only. The rest is just bullshit in the name of rgb control and preset/dpi control. You seem to be using a Logitech device, you can enable the onboard memory of your mouse, then uninstall this thing and use Logitech's Onboard Memory Manager app instead.

    Those who tried Linux and went back to Windows, what caused you to go back to Windows?
