What about Elisa? I was under the (potentially mistaken) assumption that Elisa was the successor of Amarok.

Trigraphs are handled by the preprocessor, so if you’re not handling that, then that’s fine. Digraphs are handled by the tokenizer, however.
Are digraphs and trigraphs deprecated?
Did you reference the standard?
It’s at least partially because the specification was designed to detect and thwart attempts to tee the video and audio data in order to bypass copy protection on DVDs and Blu-Rays, iirc.
I’m not going to weigh in on the specifics of Flatpak vs AppImage, because I don’t know enough about the particulars.
However, I think the “user choice” argument is often deployed in situations where it probably shouldn’t be.
For instance, in this case, it’s not the user’s choice at all, but a developer’s choice, as a normal user would not be packaging their own software. They would be merely downloading one of a number of options of precompiled packages. And this is the thrust of the argument. If we take the GitHub rant at face value, some developers seem to be distributing software using AppImage, to the exclusion of other options. And then listing ways in which this is problematic.
I, for one, would be rather annoyed if my only option were either AppImage or Flatpak, as I typically prefer use software packaged for my package manager. That is user choice, give me the option to package it myself; hopefully it’s already been done for me.
There are some good things to be said about trust and verification, and I’m generally receptive to those arguments way more than “user choice.”
Be careful, the small partitions might be UEFI partitions (/boot and /boot/efi) and are required for booting your computer.
This doesn’t specifically use the template metaprogramming interface for C++, but seems to do what you want regardless. https://github.com/jmmartinez/easy-just-in-time
I’ve never used the library myself though.
Because the nix package manager places all system packages under /nix/store/uniquehash-packagename-version/
Where the unique hash is obtained via a Merkel tree of all the inputs. So in particular, binaries and libraries exist underneath those directories, not in the places you would expect from FHS.
In order to make the system actually work, environment variables are set up and executables are patched to refer to specific paths within the Nix Store.
Considering he seems to be under the impression that OCR still sucks enough that he printed his entire letter, he’s probably not aware of recent computer stuff , (or he just writes like he’s 11, I guess?)
It’s never really clear from this video what exactly is his use case though.
Yes, nominally, but there is a layer called XWayland to support backwards compatibility, so it’s not really a concern.
Use ffmeg, here’s how to do the image part: https://superuser.com/questions/1429256/producing-lossless-video-from-set-of-png-images-using-ffmpeg
To do the audio use the copy option. See here for an example usage: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21567029/ffmpeg-to-duplicate-an-audio-stream-and-encode-this-new-stream
If “D” is physically on the same hard drive, then you’ll probably want to back it up before installing. Technically, you can manage to do it without screwing everything up, but I would not trust myself to. It’s always a good idea to have backups anyway.
Also, user files typically reside on C by default and it takes some effort to put them on a different drive. Things like Downloads, Documents, Pictures, etc. so it’s worth checking that before wiping as well.
Additionally, you’ll probably want to format your “D” drive to a Linux native filesystem (eventually, after you back it up, because formatting results in data loss). While Linux does support NTFS quite well, it’s not perfect, and your data would probably be safer on ext4 or f2fs (depending on if you have HDDs or SSDs) (or zfs or btrfs is you’re into COW filesystems).
In Linux, you have all of your files mounted to a single “drive” called /. Everything is below /, which is called the “root” of your filesystem.
Typically, user data is stored in “/home” and this resides in the same directory structure as the rest of your OS, but on most systems it’s on a different filesystem or even on a different drive entirely. This is because in Linux it is routine to put a “D” drive just in a folder. On my computer, I have several of these mount points defined, so the different types of data don’t get mixed around, and I don’t have to worry about downloading too much bullshit affecting my computer’s updates.
Hope this helps.
Just make sure you back up any important data before wiping your own hard drive. And yeah, Steam handles a lot of the weirdness of running windows only games pretty well automatically.

This is a cool idea. There are other programming languages that have libraries that expose similar behavior. For instance, Rust has the uom crate, Haskell has the units package, and C++ has the header only library SI.
But there is something to be said about it being built in.
For those curious: Gothic 1.
I’ve never heard of it before and it doesn’t look like my type of game. Anyone played it?
