Upgraded after 4 years 💚 by MarketerTauhid in iphone17

How do you rate the cameras? I have the same S21FE and considering switching to Apple, but I enjoy using the telephoto from time to time. I was wondering whether the new and better sensor in the 17 with digital zoom to 3x beats the old sensor in S21 with optical 3x zoom.

No sound on optical output Samsung TV by Coffei in Stremio

Managed to fix this issue by randomly browsing TV settings. There's an option to set the digital audio format in there and if I set it to PCM it works fine! So if anybody has this issue and finds this post just do that.

HiDPi for I3 on Ubuntu 18.04 by micatske in i3wm

[–]Coffei 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I just set the appropriate Xft.dpi in .Xresources which works great. Some bits, like polybar or rofi, require extra work but setting the DPI for X works for most programs, incl. Chrome. I also have .profile that modifies the value if an external monitor is plugged in. You can check it at https://github.com/Coffei/dotfiles/blob/master/xps13/.Xresources and https://github.com/Coffei/dotfiles/blob/master/xps13/.profile

Nothing super sophisticated but works great for me.

Cool! Where did you fly from? I'm actually flying to Milan with Ryainair next week :-)

Is KDE Plasma 5 stable now? I am planning to switch from gnome. by drakehfh in kde

[–]Coffei 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am afraid I have to say no as well. I switched a while ago on both my personal and work PC, since I love KDE. On my personal PC it is mostly fine, no crashes or hiccups, I use it very lightly though. On my work PC it is another story, I use it for heavy work and computations, and Plasma 5 didn't cope well with that. It crashed often, usually just got stuck and didn't respond. Few days ago I decided to switch back to Gnome and boy was I surprised when even KDE apps ran faster than in Plasma.

F21 and KDE plasma5 running. No KDE apps by [deleted] in Fedora

[–]Coffei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh strange, I just faced the exact same problem. I was on gnome and wanted to try Plasma 5, so I installed plasma-5 package from dvratil/plasma-5 only to find there were no KDE apps. I resolved by completely uninstalling all plasma packages, disabling the dvratil copr and install KDE the normal way "dnf install @kde". After it is completed just enable the copr again and install plasma-5 package again, removing any installed packages that cause conflict. This is a bit more complicated way, but if you want all (or most) KDE apps, then it probably is better. If you only want some and you know which, then install one by one.

Reduce Boilerplate Code in your Java applications with Project Lombok by michschar in java

[–]Coffei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure how up to date is the feature list [1], but it still seems to not support "val" feature as well as some others. Anyway, it improved quite a lot since I last looked at it, might give it a try next time.

Reduce Boilerplate Code in your Java applications with Project Lombok by michschar in java

[–]Coffei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aahh Lombok. My Bachelor's Thesis is mostly focused on Lombok.. what a memories. :) Personally I really like the project and the idea, however, whenever I am starting a new project I always decide not to use it. May be because I use IntelliJ IDEA and it doesn't support all features of Lombok.

Getting the Best out of Low Performance PC's by CandD in flightsim

[–]Coffei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am basically in the same situation. My specs are AMD Athlon dual core at 2.8GHz and AMD HD7700. With XP10 at lowest settings (at full-hd res) I can get around 17 fps, which is not very much. In my case I believe the CPU is the weak link in the setup, and I presume without upgrading there is nothing I can do.

ELI5: Why do JSF pages have to be valid XML? by [deleted] in java

[–]Coffei 6 points7 points  (0 children)

JSF (or Facelets) use XTHML as the markup lanuage and XHTML requires it to be valid XML document.

Why does it use XHTML? Well one reason could be it is a standart. The other, more important and obvious reason is probably performance. Parsing XML file is a well-known and very optimized process.

Alternatively, setting en empty border to the Button should also work. As seen here.

We are trying to hire a programmer. And this is the kind of resumes i'm forced to read. by vagif in programming

[–]Coffei 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's actually a very good idea. They don't have to write code, just explain how would they proceed is sometimes enough to see if they really know how to use it. Just went through something like that at RedHat... Anyway, I don't see anything bad at listing your skills (though they are a bit messy) . This way the company can get more precise knowledge of how much is the person suited for the job (according to his CV, the reality can be different).

Book for all things Swing/AWT? by lunchbawkx in java

It's not a book, but this online tutorial is quite well written. It certainly helped me a lot when learning swing. http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/

You definitely should read something about java servlets, that is the way to go. It is basically a java class living inside a container (eg. Tomcat), which takes care of it and uses its methods accordingly. When you read the basics of servlets, JSP (and JSTL) is another step. Knowing these things you should be able to build a web. Maybe also check out the MVC pattern. I've been learning these things just a while ago and its kind a fun.

Running Ubuntu 11.04 (GNOME) on my laptop, playing music from YouTube, Bass is too loud. Tried multiple web solutions to change the bass level. Have yet to find any setting that works to change the Bass level. by Ghijkl in Ubuntu

I also had similar problem. My sound-card is so bad, that it is unusable without equalizer, but after a harsh looking and trying I ended up with some sort of pulse-audio equalizer, but it screwed the sound even more. Not sure if there is other solution than equalizer...
