I guess they have determined that the number of people who can and do leave their platforms because of lack of support is negligible, so why spend money on actual support that could be profits instead.

I've reported bugs on paid-for Apple software and MS software, and I never get anything more than a template response.
And the issues persist.
Don't know from whomst people get that support that's so good.
For me it's worse than the worst-case responses of community software, like nobody having time and being asked to do it yourself (which was actually MS' response on one of their corporate open source things, so I did it myself according to their requirements, and then nothing happened.)

YouTube makes their app broken on purpose, so that they can sell a subscription that unbreaks it, and when someone else makes a free app that just works, Google goes, well, we own links to YouTube now, and we own the phone OS you use, and have deals to make YouTube mandatory, haha, owning stuff rules, pay us.

Getting close to 8 😜
For those not in the know: I am adding to the free #fpga toolchain the ability to use the so-called wide LUTs in gowin #fpga.
So far I have LUT5, LUT6 and LUT7.
One of the funny things is that they are implemented with hard wires and therefore cannot be detected by comparing bitmaps.

Today I learned: Thingiverse are scanning for Amazon URLs, strip out the affiliate code, and replace it with their own affiliate tag.

Sorry Thingiverse, but you're an asshole.

RT @ekaitz_zarraga Do you guys have any good reference about programming on Unix?
system calls, process control, IPC and all that?

I know Advanced Linux Programming, which is ok. Something on that line but maybe a little bit deeper or with a different approach. Ideas?

Tabs in Chromium don't work like tabs in Firefox that don't work like tabs in my window manager.
And forget about dragging a Chromium tab into Firefox or vice versa.
Getting them to open everything in new windows that are managed by the WM is needed if you want one way to manipulate tabs instead of 3.

owl@beach.city wrote:

Web browsers (and other programs) having to implement tabs is due to mainstream window managers being poor at managing windows.
They should let you tab any windows you want, from any program.
Why shouldn't you be able to have a browser tab next to a text editor tab next to a PDF reader tab?
You shouldn't need a separate way to organize and arrange windows that only works within that program.
(Spent time in a VM today using a window manager that can't tab anything...)

"Restore packages (using the interactive flag, which allows dotnet to prompt you for credentials)

Yeah ok

"error : Response status code does not indicate success: 401 (Unauthorized)."

Yeah because you never prompted me?

Lets try nuget restore:

">>>> xbuild tool is deprecated and will be removed in future updates, use msbuild instead <<<<

MSBUILD: error MSBUILD0004: Too many project files specified"

What.

I used to think that the various twigs I see on redwood forest floors came from different species of trees. Then I learned that S. sempervirens will just grow different types of needles when they get big enough to have to deal with multiple climates at once. The needles start off flat and long near the ground and get shorter, thicker, and scalier as it gets warmer and drier higher up.

So these are all from coast redwoods, just from different heights in the trees.

Corporation: Use MysteryTool to accomplish basic task.
Me: Thanks, but I'll just use tools I actually like instead.
