  • just developing an intuition, like how you don't do addition in your head by just doing 1+1+1+1+1+1....

  • i think the wine-wow64 thing is pretty new though, right?

  • why is that an issue? it's a turn of phrase, isn't it?

  • the literal first link is to a lemmy post full of people listing their usecases.

  • i'm so glad someone got this, it's borderline incomprehensible.

  • how to division in your head. i always have to go the long way round.

  • steam itself is moving towards 64-bit on linux on well, but fact is that most games are 32-bit and linux doesn't have the same compatibility guarantees as windows since you can just recompile software to run on new systems. you can't do that with old games, so you need multilib.

  • impliong

  • it happens. it's not one of those things that's important to keep around.

  • pytorch is a unique kind of mess

  • the bash language server is in nodejs...

  • other way around. the xbox was five years after the playstation, and used A for confirm, like nintendo's consoles. the snes has A on the right, so the PS has O on the right. but when they released in europe, they chose to use X for confirm, which is on the bottom. so the xbox has A on the bottom.

  • I started using aeon, which comes with a specially-configured snapper integrated with systemd and the package manager, a while ago. it's so nice to have a system that does automatic updates, has automatic rollback, and cannot be broken by using it like a normal user.

    it's not completely stable yet, but what's there is really cool. heads up if you want to try it that it's made to be the only os on your machine and so will wipe all partitions on the drive you install it on.

  • doas

  • those costs are insane, the us one because it's so high and the oz one for being so low. i think about 20% of our total tax revenue goes to care (health and elderly). for me that's something like €3500.

  • sweden is so sparsely populated that some places have more empty houses than people. population density is about a quarter that of spain. the big cities are closer to the rest of europe, with homes going for three to four times the price of something an hour away and the rent queue being dominated by people who have been there since the 90s.

    i bought a 70ish sqm apartment for about €100k two-ish hours from stockholm. in the city that would probably go for 5-20x the cost (depending on area) and have at least double the monthly cost.

  • as evidenced by the instance i'm on, sweden.

    which of course also means that i did the normal stupid we do here and gave the amount before taxes. the take-home from that is more like €40k.

  • what about insurance and healthcare?

  • us software salaries are insanely high compared to the rest of the world, because the cost of living in SV is insanely high.

    with a €60k a year salary i'm in the 90th percentile of earners in my country and it took me about two years to have enough to finance my own three-bedroom apartment on one income.
