Am I the only one who hasn’t felt the need to upgrade in _way_ more than just one year? I still have an old XPS 15 9560 (pushing 10 years!!!) running Ubuntu which is perfectly usable. I upgraded the ram (32Gb) and the battery, and I still consider it to be totally usable for most day to day tasks. Development, docker containers, browsing the web with an unhealthy number of tabs open. What more do I need?
Same. My daily driver is a high spec Dell laptop from 2018. I do CAD work on it and it's approximately fine. I upgraded the memory last year and I've had to repaste the heatsink and replace the battery, but I still can't justify getting a new machine given that it does everything I actually need flawlessly.
You might wanna give Bitwig a try, it’s one of the best commercial DAWs available on Linux. You can record live loops, similar to Ableton (it was originally built by ex-Ableton developers)
Worked at UC3M on their CREATOR generic architecture simulator. Rewrote the core, added a CLI app, and completely overhauled the web version bringing it up to modern standards. Available at https://creatorsim.github.io
Looking for a junior role to gain more experience in the field. I love improving existing codebases, cleaning them up, and optimising performance wherever possible. If you think I’m a good match, I’d love to talk.
I have yet to try it in depth, but being able to stack different apps into the same window is awesome. Reminds me of Konqueror, where you had the same app for browsing the internet and your local filesystem.
That’s actually really neat. It’ll be interesting to see how durable these kinds of displays end up being. Rubber bands tend to loosen up with use, or when exposed to uv rays.
It would actually be super useful if this could be extended to work with Universal Control. I have a 24in iMac and a MacBook Pro. Being able to sync the brightness across devices would be great.
Interesting thought, thanks for your input. I will look into it and add this feature.
Just to clarify, you would like to control the brightness of your iMac from Macbook Pro and vice versa from the MacGlow app. Did I understand it right?
