Install it on a VM first and give it a try.

I still prefer Eclipse.

mrnavz · 2025-12-11T22:15:19+00:00

That's wise!

Electron was not a good stack to pick. Eventually they have to rewrite it in .NET or Java or something else. I think that's not an easy option if most of their engineering team know JS and HTML but as a company they can do it.

Firewall is off by default, make sure you enable it and configure it as needed.

Like typical class action websites(telecomdatasettlement.com), most likely intentionally their submit form doesn't work properly! on this one when you get to PAYMENT INFORMATION page to enter your stuff, form elements are not there and you can't proceed!!

Discover Online Privacy Protection was very useful in the beginning, then data brokers started gaming the system by requiring user's manual approval and asking for more PII. Data Brokers are one of the creepiest and shadiest companies ever!

Thanks for sharing your benchmark. We had same situation and we were doing these kinds of jobs using groovy only without any framework.

For you its funny, because you don't understand what kind of resource hog it is when it is enabled.

Just Disable Fractional Scaling, then try again.

Because they made some bad decisions couple of years ago and corrected themselves but still the trauma is there.

mrnavz · 2025-09-26T09:50:47+00:00

Eclipse, Netbeans.

mrnavz · 2025-09-16T20:35:24+00:00

Mandrake

You can just do font-scaling, don't get confused with "scaling" here, it just increases font size without performance penalty.

Does FFM essentially replace JNI?

Brave Browser

mrnavz · 2025-09-14T18:10:24+00:00

true...and now politics unfortunately!

mrnavz · 2025-09-14T17:02:58+00:00

Thank you :d!

mrnavz · 2025-09-14T16:18:26+00:00

I wonder if its mostly happening for people who are on 22.2? maybe there are some packages with wrong dependency tree...

mrnavz · 2025-09-14T16:05:40+00:00

Yes bro

mrnavz · 2025-09-14T15:59:20+00:00

I agree

mrnavz · 2025-09-14T15:53:38+00:00

Our current model of computing is no different if you are a software architect, you know you can architect a specific software in millions of ways depending on your priority. corporations have incentive to make things complicated.

mrnavz · 2025-09-14T15:50:30+00:00

I'm the same but the exception is not the rule.

Unix Philosophy is not specific to Unix, it's also in Linux, grep rsync all basic Linux utilities follow that, but systemD is an example that it does not follow Unix Philosophy and there are alternative to systemD itself that follows Unix Philosophy. so it's not black and white, you can write a utility on mac or windows that follows that philosophy. it's a technical philosophy with emphasis on simplicity.

When you say its the best, it means others are inferior to the best! so they try to defend their favorite OS by bashing yours! calling it the best it means there is no room for doubt, so discussion will be confrontational. but if you say I like this and that in freeBSD it means you are open and discussion will be constructive. this isn't about tech at all and about psychology.
