"Cancer patients for example having to wait for surgery and kids who need care for other reasons."

Lets ban tobacco altogether then. Because lung cancer patients are taking beds from people who would need surgery or care for other reasons.

Alcohol too. Ban it.
Sugar? Ban! Kills more people than covid.
Adrenaline sports? Ban it!
Motorcycles? Ban! You have safer modes of travel.

Where does it stop? Probably somewhere in a bubble-wrapped cocoon being directly connected to internet, so you can spew bullshit on social media from your "safe-space".

There will be 13 mini and it won't have fingerprint unlock. A shame that there are no small android phones with good specs.

I'm really hopeful steam deck is a success this December. It will pretty much force developers to also support Linux (at least via proton/wine).
What's happening now is that developers purposely bork their games to not work on Linux (PUBG, Destiny 2, ...) .

Not only disk space. I recently installed windows 10 for a relative. System was unusable for first 30 minutes because it was downloading apps (candy crush, linkedin, weather, facebook, Xbox something?, etc...) Fresh install with local account, which was pain in the ass to create in the first place.

Cryptos are still on original PlusToken wallets - seems that chinese police didn't get a hold on private keys.

Did you RTFA? based on astro- nomical retrocalculation) notes that seven total lunar eclipses were observable in Europe between 1100 and 1120 CE, namely on 17 September 1103, 11 January 1107, 6 July 1107, 5 May 1110, 8 August 1114, 16 June 1117 and 10 December 1117 CE. Our survey recovered 17 original historical reports that credibly pertain to these eclipses. The problem are reports that "moon was gone for months".

Wine 5.0 was just released with aim to better play with anti-cheat software. It still has a long way to go, but there's progress...

Framerate is also pretty good with DXVK now.

When you're writing in regimental OOP-crazy languages, types help. In dynamic languages like JS, you're just getting in the way. Can you even type something stupider than this? Just ask yourself what is opposite of "dynamic language" and you'll hear yourself being a retard.

What? You're spewing shit about things you know nothing about. React is not immutable, is not enforcing or requires immutability.

You're living years behind. Steam now has Proton (valve's version of Wine) integrated and most windows games work seamlessly on linux.

But still sucks. Actually all those mentioned compilers suck... and that's because javascript sucks, and you need to change the language to something that is at least strong typed (java, c#, python, ...)

so you're left with something like: GWT, DuoCode, Bridge.NET...
