I’m sorry. I can see how someone with very thick fingers might struggle.

My father has a similar issue. I watched him write a message on his phone and I think I found the issue with him. He cared very much about the accuracy of each letter. Doing so made him slow and caused a lot of unhappiness.

My advice to him was to stop caring and just trust autocorrect. It will autocorrect away mistakes and enables people to write quickly. But if you try to get everything letter perfect as you go there is no point to it. It’s a different mindset.

As for programming yah I understand the discomfort here too. I slow down a bit when at the command line on my phone too. Particularly with the flags and such. I recommend the fish shell though. It has an amazing autocomplete set of features above and beyond even zsh. It’s not just looking at histories. It looks at man files and gives autocomplete recommendations. Just Ctrl-F to complete.

As for programming, I have to ask, do you program on your phone? I would use my laptop here.

My “raw” error rate is quite high. My actual output error rate is quite low. I can’t speak for swipe keyboards though. I just use the standard tap keyboard. For me the in context predictive autocorrect works wonders.

With my old keyboard phone things were slower because I had to press down on physical buttons. With a touch keyboard I just lightly touch type without the need for effort or rechecking. It all just works out.

As for me I could never go back to a slide out setup. It was very klutzy and thick. Like 2cm thick. Crazy.

I’m happy with touch keyboards because they are faster for me and enable things like folding phones. But to each their own.

Thanks for showing me how passionate you are here. :)

Edit: the ellipsis leads me to believe that you might have been into tech while the n900 was around. You write with the passion of a n900 user. Did you have one?

But selling other peoples’ labor would introduce it to the capitalist system. Not saying that makes you a capitalist. Just saying some people might want to keep their art out of that system.

I think that’s best left up to the author. Sometimes someone might prefer that their art stay independent of capitalism. I think that is a respectable position.

I can type faster on my keyboard free phone then I could with my old phone with a qwertz keyboard.

Plus when I’m not typing I get more screen real estate. It’s a total win win for me. Not bad at all.

You need to relax a bit. No one is denying climate change here. (At least at the time I am writing this)

While I do agree with you that many Americans are, in fact, dumb, you should drop the use of slurs. They’re not conducive to a healthy environment and they make you look like an edgy 13 year old.

With a NC license, the author still can sell the work and make money. It’s just that other people can’t.

Did you use any generative fill or any AI powered features?

This is really exciting. At 0.075 USD / w, that means a 8kw system would only cost 600 USD in solar panels!

Even in Central Europe a 8kw system should cover people’s basic needs year round. At that price it would be amazing. Labor on the other hand would still be expensive.

I do most of my cad stuff on openscad and I will say that is impressive!

Particularly since the openscad language is purely functional and side effect free.

At the cool network kids hate nat. 😤

I think it depends on what you’re working on. If you’re working on some JavaScript web app you could say that CPUs are “good enough”. But even then larger more complicated apps will get annoyingly slow to “compile”.

It’s when you are working with larger and more complicated Rust or C or whatever code bases that compile time matters.

This all being said for me CPU important is a good thing. It was good in the 90s and it’s good now.

I was not in fact mislead. I actually went and found that article to help explain the concept of IPC uplift to you.

I was speaking of why new CPUs are a good thing worth being excited by in general. You were the one who said new CPUs aren’t worth being excited about in general.

As a bonus I showed how new CPUs even at the same speed have advantages. This all being said hey if you want to be a downer here go for it.

I don’t think you have Stockholm syndrome. You just like what you already understand well. It’s a normal part of the human condition.

All those features of nat also work with IPV6 with no nat in the exact same way. When I want to open up a port I just make a new firewall rule. Plus you get the advantages of being able to address the ach host behind the firewall. It’s a huge win with no losses.

I am speaking about in general. Newer faster CPUs are something worth being happy about.

This being said there is more to CPUs than raw clock speeds. A major component is IPC uplift. For example if a new cpu has a 20% IPC improvement over an older CPU when they both run at say 3.5Ghz the newer CPU will do things 20% faster. It’s pretty cool stuff.

In the case of the CPUs you mentioned it looks like there was a 16% IPC uplift over last gen and last gen had a 18% uplift over the 5xxx series. I would be happy to have my code compile 16% + 18% faster.

For me they are. Faster compile times means I can iterate and test things faster.

If you do dev work on a day to day basis a newer faster cpu makes a major difference.

I think it’s worth taking the time to learn IPv6 property. If you have a good understanding of IPv4 it shouldn’t take you more than an afternoon.

Eliminating NAT and just using firewall rules (ie what NAT does behind your back) is incredibly freeing.

I don’t get people complaining about typing out IPs. I like to give all of my clients full FQDNs but you don’t have to. Just using mDNS would be enough to avoid typing a bunch of numbers.

You shouldn’t have to?? Maybe you might need to change the mask in your firewall settings if the ipv6 allocation block size changes but that should be it.

Everything else should just work as normal.

Imagine being so much of a Russophile that you are forced to defend MANDATORY antipsychotics for neurodiverse people.

I get disliking the west but this dose not mean one can ignore harm when you see it outside of the west.
