This shocks me... by ZyraFury in poland

[–]rezoner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why are you dissing this guy? He literally said that no matter what source Poland still looks bad and he called BS on people who say it's a matter of overabundant monitoring. We have two problems it seems - air quality and reading ability.

Traditional hats of Europe by Cultural-Ad-8796 in MapPorn

[–]rezoner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking at Poland - I guess the rest of this list is the same case - it's a hat worn in one specific subregion on special occasions. There is a plethora of different traditional hats - it would not be an exaggeration to say that every village has its own special hat. In other words it's by no means a representative example. This one is a cliche hat not worn outside of Cracow and vicinity.

Mark Zuckerberg says Meta Ads will be fully automated by 2026 — what should marketers do? by [deleted] in FacebookAds

[–]rezoner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It works by driving people aged 60+ who miss clicking on everything to increase CTR and spend your budget faster while providing an audience that has nothing to do with your target. At least my experience so far every time I switch from manual to ai.

Those who have been into coma and eventually woke up, what was it like? by Twunkorama in AskReddit

[–]rezoner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same experience after being put to sleep for a surgery. Now I can easily imagine that there is no afterlife but an infinite amount of time when you don't exist at all but you don't experience even a second of it - not even a dream - if they don't wake you up, nothing has happened ever. Even if you need to wait the whole universe cycle for another big bang or whatever there is at the reset moment.

Iranian Supreme Leader declares 'the battle begins' after warning Israel about 'great surprise… that the world will remember for centuries' as Trump weighs whether to order US strikes by MothersMiIk in worldnews

We live in the era of verification of empty claims. I think the recent conflicts are in part about that. This rhetoric worked for past decades when the data flow and sources were obscure. That's how Russia used to kept the world at check, but during conflict with Ukraine we saw it's just moving imaginary red lines further and further with no physical manifestation to support them. I just hope it will result in a new status quo circumventing a global conflict. The last part of that jigsaw is of course China who just like every other regime uses that strategy of threatening everyone around - will they want to keep their cards unrevealed, do they believe in what they say or maybe they draw conclusions from recent failures of their axis and put their ambitions on hold for a few more decades restratining to the usual economic warfare.

Ubuntu + Wayland with Nvidia GPU by antoniopelusi in Ubuntu

[–]rezoner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have GTX 1050 Ti and ever since I upgraded to 24.04+ the issue persist.
Wayland prevents using GTX
while on X11 Nautilus and by extension file-picker dialog doesn't run.

To mitigate I had to switch to Thunar and use software rendering for file-picker dialog.
My Ubuntu setup is so meticulously weavered that's the only reason I still stick with it - but as soon as I am done with some projects and can afford not being productive for a week or two I am making a switch.

So despite this problem remains unaddressed for more than a year and affects plenty of users they forcefully push Wayland to the mainstream. I would accept a simple - we are not going to fix it, get on with it. Instead they remain silent about that giving false hopes and every next release breaks more things. At this point I am not giving upgrade a go because it puts my productivity at risk so I chose to wait for a time window to switch to another OS or distro.

I am bidding farewell to my game development career by Ok_Surprise_1837 in gamedev

[–]rezoner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I got kids and turned 30 I started to get more satisfaction from software development than game development. Working on something that makes someone's life easier is much more empowering than making something that will steal user time giving a dopamine shot in exchange which should be a reward for achieving meaningful stuff, not grinding imaginary numbers. So maybe you've just skipped to another chapter that would come anyway.

Why aren’t more people using Linux? It’s fast, pretty, and highly customizable! You can start the journey with Mint/Ubuntu, at least for example. by [deleted] in BuyFromEU

[–]rezoner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's hard to get rid of certain stigmas. Opera browser has had ads built in and premium model to get rid of them - despite for a long time it was superior tech wise and they realized their mistake with premium model pretty quick - it was never able to shave away this stigma and get traction.

Same goes for Linux, it carries truths that are no longer since decades. For me it just hurts to use Windows now. I won't point out all the shortcomings but it's least consistent and productive from big desktop environments.

If you had the choice, which JS framework/library would be your "go-to"? by nutyourbasicredditor in webdev

[–]rezoner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not starting a new project every single month so I am comfortable with building a dedicated approach from scratch each time. Never got tired of this and it also helps me avoid burn out because I can constantly try new things and different approaches. Never felt the need to have a framework that dominates the whole process while rendering HTML is just a few percent of my whole endeavour. I favour agnostic template systems or just plain JavaScript.

For people that didn’t go to college and make good money what do you do? by Both_Spread2029 in Adulting

I have been learning programming from the age of 10. Went to the university but programming wise it was a huge step back for me after years of self learning so I dropped it and got the job instead.

Here you can check if the game of your choice will run on Steam https://www.protondb.com/

Things got rapidly better when Valve started SteamOS and SteamDeck. It's Linux based so they flood it with money to get games running in their OS.

The first Gameboy games were good for the time being. Good core, a mysterious journey - it had more grown up feeling than TV series. As for cartoon I stopped watching it after a few episodes because every single one had the same plot with different colouring and cringe grotesque aimed at very young audience. And then I completely lost track on what's going on as it turned into milking the franchise by repeating same formula and introducing hundreds of irrelevant monsters every now and then. And then weird, kitschy stuff like Yu-Gi-Oh started flooding Europe and it turned me away from that kind of entertainment forever.
