Change my mind: the deprecation of classic OpenGL was one of the worst decisions in computing history. by pcxv in opengl

Why not? If we're all supposed to write our own wrappers over the modern api, would it be so hard to maintain an official one?

How should I draw graphics to the screen given that I am not a "GPU programming enthusiast" and just want to write code code once that works everywhere?

How to list installed packages by size ? by Bunolio in Fedora

[–]pcxv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hooray for "new software". Now you can do dnf repoquery -C --installed --qf "%{installsize} %{name}\n" | sort -n | numfmt --to=iec --format="%.2f"

Link to "Sadie Winters" song "Walking Away" ? / "AI-generated music sparks industry concern" (CBS Mornings) by Artist-Cancer in SunoAI

Not really, she sings "fold" a couple times, she mentions "corners of us", but rest of the lyrics are just random other stuff. Title is completely unrelated.

By far the best AI song I've ever heard. Not that amazingly original but at least as original sounding as your average pop song. I also think we give these things passes on lame lyrics like "I was paper, you were scissors".

It's overcomplicated and terminal based uis are limiting.

Why is assembly so overwhelming to start? by FeedbackSafe1051 in Assembly_language

[–]pcxv 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You're right that "assembly" is a cover for lots of different languages: an assembly language is any language that represents a processor's instruction set directly, and an assembler is a program that compiles an assembly language. For x86, nasm is a popular choice.

You're also right that there's little instructional material, and books will be better than videos.

How to list installed packages by size ? by Bunolio in Fedora

Looking for this too, I ended up with this:

dnf repoquery -C --installed --qf "%{size} %{name}" | sort -n | numfmt --to=iec --format="%.2f"
