I thought there was evidence that caffeine under a certain amount was no more a diuretic than water.

@bols59 I've actually found my dev experience is better with a Mac, things just work better. I much prefer the Unix way.

Each to their own.

@magicMirror storage is cheap, I'm happy with WAV and save those cpu cycles. Yeah BT is a terrible idea.

What do you mean by analogue output? The output is always analogue

@platypus @NoMad I've caught the audiophile bug, having constructed a sound system, bought an old but really nice amp, and a decent pair of speakers and just found out I can plug my computer directly into the DAC via USB. Currently repurposing my more modern laptop to be a media centre.

Bluetooth's bandwidth can't cope with CD quality music. Unless I pay £20 a month streaming music will only be 320kbs (CDs are 1411kbs).

@bytecode oh nice, I have a habit of being jealous but am determined to be happy with this one as long as it lasts. Its my 30th present from parents (at my request), so it's got special meaning

Hey @Root, this what you were thinking of?

@Root I believe the key caps are fully replaceable, and rgb is fully customizable. Only thing you'd have to do is paint the actual casing.

@RememberMe yeah definitely, it was absolutely the reason I made the switch in the end

@beggarboy when asked how the project will keep going, he answered "keep me alive"

@metamourge neovim is definitely an improvement, tho still lots of reasons to use emacs over it.

Spacemacs? Though I have no idea of its footprint for large projects.

@MrCSharp oh I said it wrong whoops, too late now oh well.

Good luck and keep at it :)

Rtx* damn

RRX has real-time ray tracing capabilities. Just a shame that currently no game actually implements it. So yes, 1080s are nigh identical right now in performance.

Actually I have that launcher and am quite impressed by it. And not a M$ fanboy.

"saying that amps don't kill is like saying its the bullet that kills not the person shooting"

He is now the xkcd of electronics for me.

@rutee07 yes but at least the leave me alone

The very nature of our brains is multi-threaded.

Good luck :)

Welcome to devRant @mjoellnier, good luck on your thesis!

You have done much better at schooling than I ever did

@Krokoklemme squeak and pharo look good.

Oh nice, though redux logger and redux dev tools are slightly more powerful

@tokumei also reading good things about Pharo

@CogInTheWheel yarn is nice, tho npm keeps making strides and making it more irrelevant

Welcome to devRant @legacyJanitor, this being one of your first posts seems appropriate to your name.

@linuxxx

@hugh-mungus I'll say one thing before I stfu about politics

"I once asked Rupert Murdoch why he was so opposed to the European Union. 'That’s easy,' he replied. 'When I go into Downing Street they do what I say; when I go to Brussels they take no notice"

@hugh-mungus land of the free? Suuure

Love the panic
