in effetti ho provato un po' la versione presa dal repo di DivestOS, e non ho avuto problemi... direi che diventa il mio default :)

Avevo notato, sto usando Fennec, ma potrebbe essere l'occasione per ri-provare Mull. L'avevo provato tempo fa ma avevo problemi su troppi siti, qualcuno lo usa regolarmente qui?

yeah, baking soda works but you have to be careful with the amount you put in them or they'll taste very bland after...

Bought a new PC, and I was measuring its consumption out of curiosity. I noticed something weird (to me): when the PC is off (in fact, I completely disconnected the PSU and did the same test), there is quite some current running in the power cable to the PSU (0.15A).

Further measures showed a power factor of (almost) zero, and I can actually measure a capacity of 2uF across the PSU ac input.

I did the same thing on an older PC I have, and there is no current / capacity. So what would the reason of a capacitor across the mains on the input be in a PSU?

PS: the PSU is a Thermaltake Toughpower GF A3 1050W

Edit: I found some official measurements for this specific PSU: https://www.cybenetics.com/evaluations/psus/2249/ that have 40W standby apparent-power by design

Hi! I'm relatively new to mechanical keyboards and I need some help.

I need a 60% that will allow to toggle between two mode, one for writing and one for cursor movement with arrows (possibly on IJKL).

From what I found most of the 60% use the Fn button for arrows, but you have to keep it pressed, which will not work for me... I need to actually toggle the alternative layout. Some 60% have a "Fn lock" to support this, but it's hard to tell by just looking at their specs...

Do you know any model with a similar feature?

I'll add something which is not mentioned: Unreal Engine, one of the most popular game engines, is source available, but not open source. Many games modify it but its then impossible to release those sources. I'm guessing that it's the same with many other engines...

The main issue is more about how many FOSS devs are available to implement what you just said unfortunately...

Recently Teams is blocking Firefox even on Windows, but changing user agent was enough in my case...

The source you linked tells that more developed countries have less kids, which is almost unrelated to how "affordable" having a child is, which infact have the opposite trend.

In one of my jobs, they were automatically locking any push 2 hours before the shift ended.

Tv and movies don't look choppy because the shutter speed of the camera smooth out the movement with motion blur. Motion blur in games is instead just simulated and not as effective.

Also as someone else have said a game is interactive and input latency can be as high as 3 frames, which at 30fps would be 1/10s and can be perceived....

I'll give a different perspective on what you said: dx12 basically moved half of the complexity that would normally be managed by a driver, to the game / engine dev, which already have too much stuff to do: making the game. The idea is that "the game dev knows best how to optimize for its specific usage" but in reality the game dev have no time to deal with hardware complexity and this is the result.

On desktop, I'm really wondering why people use it. I mean it's not pre-installed for windows, what makes people choose Chrome in 2023?
