QtWidgets uses software rendering. It's completely fine on my 4K display except for a single application, KOrganizer, where it actually takes a while to redraw the UI. You can implement hardware rendering badly too (see QtQuick which is noticeably less responsive than QtWidgets)

Not an app, but one thing I can recommend that is pretty much "for free" is to turn on iCloud Advanced Data Protection, that gets you end-to-end encryption for pretty much all iCloud storage (photos and so on).

Everything else I would recommend is probably not going to happen (such as deleting Discord) or of questionable benefits (such as using the web version of Discord instead of what is probably the app) :^)

I'm in a similar situation. Before I had to move all was fine, I had a single ethernet port I plugged my router into. It even had a static IPv4 (even though no IPv6 but I could just use tunnelbroker). Literally perfect.

After I moved I'm now stuck in this horribly designed network that has a stupid internet cafe tier login portal even for wired devices, unencrypted wifi, seemingly every single device from every student on the same network (I am getting blasted with other people's broadcast packets and I'm pretty sure the network congestion from that is where my weird intermittent packet loss comes from). And now I don't have any public IP address at all.

Whoever they hired to set this up is an absolute moron who has no idea about network security or how to make an efficient network and considering the internet cafe login portal probably likes to cause as much suffering as possible. (Not saying I'm necessarily qualified but the fact alone that I can connect to other people's AirPlay devices means they failed at both.)

And the reason all of this is a problem is that they also don't allow putting a router/firewall in front so I can get a sane network. Had to tear down pretty much all the infrastructure I set up in the old place because a lot of it was relying on me having control over the network. Of course, I knew none of this before I moved in, I was explicitly looking for internet shenanigans in the contract.

I now have a janky Wireguard mesh network setup with one of the machines being the IPv6 gateway. Awful but at least I have public addresses and IPv6 (and with that a bit of my own network space) again.

People paid for that original game too, it wasn’t free. I don’t assume they got refunded. It was basically a massive bait and switch.

Looking it up, seems like it's something you will only find on original UNIX. So probably nothing you have to worry about in reality tbh.

Me too, Intel

Registrars (or DNS providers if you don't use the one that comes with your registrar) worth using have an API to manage DNS entries. That's basically all there is to DynDNS.

It's very unlikely there's a GUI tool that will do this unless you write one yourself, that sounds like a very uhhh, unique naming scheme. You can sort them using a shell script:

for file in *; do
  name="${file%.*}"
  suffix="${name: -2}"
  printf '%s\t%s\n' "$suffix" "$file"
done | sort

Alternatively, modify this so that it will create symlinks in a new folder that have names that will get sorted correctly in whatever GUI tool.

This is designed for Gentoo but I've used it for Ubuntu before: https://github.com/TheChymera/mkstage4/

Same same same. I would love to have one, and I would absolutely be down to have mine preserved.

Also I study CS which is funny considering the "he works in IT" from the OP

Keep in mind that some killall implementations do not take arguments and instead literally kills all processes. You might want to use pkill instead.

This is only true for steam keys. https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/features/keys

I don’t use a computer from the 90s. It can handle it.

For files? I like title case (like in article headlines). For example, I have a "Shell Tricks.txt". I'm not really consistent though, sometimes it's all lowercase or whatever really.

Are they implying the police are accountable for anything?

I agree about Sourceforge but there isn’t really anything better than Bugzilla still, at least not that I’ve seen anyone use.

I don’t know about playlists specifically (do you mean something like Spotify’s Discovery playlist?) but I think Last.fm has recommendations.

Well, it's now an issue with Rust since Cargo makes it a pain in the ass to do. It's one of the big things that makes me very reluctant to write any sort of system tools in Rust despite being a big fan of the language itself.

Ah, yeah openrc is nice and I used it for a long time with gentoo, but it does lack a lot of the useful features like this one.
