I suppose ray-tracing is rather suggestive of games, you're right. Well, I'll take it as an accident by the author and rest easy. Thanks for the correction!
The topic is bloatware, not games. Very different. When it comes to gaming, the hardware costs are a given (for the sake of innovation, as you put it); but when it comes to something fundamental to your computer—think of the window manager or even the operating system itself—bloat is like poison in the hardware's veins. It is not innovation. It is simply a waste of precious resources.
Thank you!
Explain this to a long-time runit user... (Seriously, I'm lost)
Okay, seriously though: the Lunar Launcher is the only one I have found consistently minimalist and yet practical. I can only recommend it.
I LOVE the Lunar Launcher!
This explains so much... I always wondered why it went away when I turned the power strip off... (this is real). In all seriousness, I am shockingly relieved. Also very annoyed. Very, very annoyed. That monitor was so goddamn extensive!
This is actually genius, because then, while you're at it, you could add different ports too, like RCA ports, a bit-perfect Toslink, etc. I desperately want this phone now! I don't care if it weighs a few extra kilograms, I NEED TOSLINK!
Except that my cat instead chooses to sit on my face and meow furiously until I get him breakfast.
