@glyph Did you quote post something?

[snoopj@hachyderm.io]

@glyph man, I barely can keep track of the stuff *on* Windows, I don't even wanna know how cursed things get when doing compat

[glyph@mastodon.social]

@SnoopJ I don't have a native x86 machine but it's surprising how the reliability of games is like:

1. proton
2. codeweavers
3. windows/arm VM on parallels

there are things that run on one that don't run on the other two, but proton runs substantially *more* software than real Windows-on-ARM does

[nick@sloan.host]

@glyph I found this really insightful. The core of my discomfort with LLMs in software development is the disregard for costs. I think I have good language to talk about the personal and societal costs, but the organizational costs are where the rubber meets the road.

[nick@sloan.host]

@glyph It comes as no surprise that checking costs would be a major overlooked (or more likely, ignored) cost. That cost applies to human output as well, and many organizations seem to be under-investing already.

@glyph @SnoopJ Proton is a godssend (but by humans, to whom I am grateful)

[snoopj@hachyderm.io]

@cthos @glyph I will definitely be getting familiar with it over the next year as I migrate off Win10

[cthos@mastodon.cthos.dev]

@SnoopJ @glyph it mostly “just works” both for games and regular productivity apps

[snoopj@hachyderm.io]

@cthos @glyph and I have no choice but to respect it, because it's awesome that someone loves NieR:Automata so much that they created a revolutionary compatibility layer about it

[xgranade@wandering.shop]

@SnoopJ @cthos @glyph There's some compatibility advantages over just pure Windows, even. It's pretty easy to just create a whole new Wine prefix, tell programs running in that prefix that it's a different version of Windows, then run them that way. Basically, side-by-side installing multiple copies of Windows.

That's a bit extreme, but it's nice to have that option.

[xgranade@wandering.shop]

@SnoopJ @cthos @glyph It's so incredibly wild that that's a literal description of what happened. People are amazing.

[snoopj@hachyderm.io]

@xgranade @cthos @glyph bro heard "Glory to Mankind" and responded "say no more"

[cthos@mastodon.cthos.dev]

@SnoopJ @xgranade @glyph a million times this.

@xgranade @SnoopJ @glyph perfect, no notes

@glyph This is a big challenge for The Onion. They had a thing months ago about ICE releasing a decapitation video of Gavin Newsom. To beat the horrifying absurdity of real life, you may have to dive beneath it & you may sort of lose something, some shred of humanity, in the process.

@jalefkowit You realise that for nerds, excluding 95% of their audience is a feature, right? That’s why they have a word for them: “normies.”

@glyph if you ignore all the shit that happened for money and then failed, we are only growing stronger.

[otfrom@functional.cafe]

@glyph I feel it is always worth remembering that these things are contingent and genealogical rather than teleological and unified.

The revolution existed at the same time as the rest and the pieces are all there, and capital is doing its best to capture the value after the disruption

[neilk@xoxo.zone]

@glyph I have been trying to say exactly this for quite a while now and never made it concise enough. Thank you
