Ghostty 1.0 is Coming
  • Seems the pitch is just that it supports Apple specific bells and whistles like the emoji bar and beyond that has the stuff other terminals have. I use tilda and use that because it has a critical core feature I haven't seen in other terminals: it appears full screen over all other windows with a keypress and disappears the same way. Since I use terminal heavily I don't want to treat it as just another window but as a first class experience which tilda allows. I don't really get why you'd make yet another terminal without some fundamental core functionality difference like that.

  • WYR live in eternal autumn or eternal spring?

    The eternalness is magic so the fall trees never run out of leaves and the spring plants never finish growing. You'll at times transition from late season back to early season.

    Georgia voters for Cornel West won’t have votes counted: State Supreme Court
  • So two candidates failed to submit their paperwork to get onto the ballot but the state in a bizarre display of proactive incompetence put them on the ballot anyways? The mistake eventually got caught and taken to the court and of course the court rules they have to follow the process dictated by law. And now Raffensperger is saying it's too late to change (which, ok understandable) and worse, is doubling down on his mistake by falsely claiming votes for them will be counted when the court has established they can't be?

  • Still relevant, just substitute for win 11
  • 98 was ok, ME sucked, XP was ok, Vista sucked, 7 was ok, 8 sucked, 10 is ok, 11 sucks.

  • Is the food in the fridge still good? California wants to end the guessing game
  • The law is set to take effect in July 2026, establishing a new standard for food labeling in California. It will require the use of “Best if Used By” label to signal peak quality and “Use By” label for product safety, an approach recommended by federal agencies. The law provides exemption for eggs, beer and other malt beverages.

    So we're going from "best by" for quality and "use by" for safety to "best if used by" for quality and "use by" for safety... Unless the law also spells out some magic way to predict when food will expire I'm not seeing the improvement.

  • banana for rule 😔
  • Agreed. Another review has a picture holding it and it looks like typical banana size. That banana is just a banana of unusual size.

  • French rule
  • France is a lie schemed up by the British monarchy in the 1400s to reinforce traditional power structures via a common enemy.

  • Sony announces the $700 PS5 Pro
  • I was thinking between 7600 XT and 7700 XT or 4060 and 4060 TI.

  • Sony announces the $700 PS5 Pro
  • GPU alone would cost more than the console, if you’re building a pc.

    There's not many models that expensive. A comparable GPU to the PS5 Pro's is around half the cost

  • WyR have a cupboard in your lower back or a drawer in your thigh?

    Let's say they have roughly the same usable volume.

    WYR a talking chicken that refuses to be house-trained/diapered or a talking snake that eats random items?

    They follow you everywhere and will mysteriously appear whenever you're sure you've shaken them. If they die while in your care then you turn into that animal.

    The hen's poop contains all the normal pathogens and smells, it also enjoys shoulder rides and isn't afraid to peck you. The snake will eat things it cannot digest if you don't stop it and will occasionally try to eat things it cannot even swallow.

    The hen enjoys talking about cocks while the snake is vocal about its rather questionable political views.

    What's the reason for high refresh rates?

    I was reading an article on the new LG display with a refresh rate of 7680Hz and it says:

    > While a typical refresh rate for a monitor might be 60Hz-240Hz, an outdoor display designed to be viewed from a distance needs to be much higher

    The idea that there's an intrinsic link between refresh rate and viewing distance is new to me and feels unintuitive. I can understand the need for high brighteness for far view distance. I also could understand refresh rate mattering for a non-persistent (CRT) display. But for an Led display surely you can see it far away even if it refreshes once a second?

    Refresh rate normally needs to be high enough to avoid pixels "jumping" between refreshes on high resolution displays, so wouldn't higher view distances allow you to decrease the refresh rate?

    Is the article just spouting bullshit? Or is there an actual link between refresh rate and view distance?

    SLPT: in a rush after a snowstorm? Skip brushing your car off by simply driving fast! The air will brush your car off for you.

    This can also save you shoveling/plowing your driveway, simply drive over the accumulated snow at high speed. Make sure to avoid getting stuck however.
