The yt-dlp contributors are not in the business of writing or finding JS runtimes, they're trying to download videos.

Using it in vscode, while not perfect yet, is starting to be alright.

There's a bit of a pain in that I could only get Brave to run Netflix, but all that meant was that I switched to using Brave for all of my browsing.

There's no official Tor build for it, but there is an unofficial one (that I do not use)

The only real pain I have with it is that Facebook's javascript for its reels chews up RAM something horrible, which freezes the OS whilst being processed, and often causes me to reboot it

>We know for sure when we arrive at that point.

The moment you do arrive at the -20 every year point means that:

* You've spent the previous 40 years in denial that it happens more and more often

* You're on the path to -30 already, with no way to stop it.

So, no, we won't "wait and see", no.

    build.gradle.kts
    java {
        toolchain {
             languageVersion = JavaLanguageVersion.of(17)
             //bonus: pick your favorite distribution with vendor = JvmVendorSpec.<X>
        }
    }

> It won’t even tell you are building with wrong version.

Right, "Class file has wrong version" doesn't explicitly tell you it's the wrong JDK. Gradle itself runs from a JDK8, so even the install you made with your Windows XP will work fine.

If your last experience with Java was 20 years ago and you think that for some reason it hasn't kept up with modern advancement and leapfrogged most languages (how's async doing in rust? virtual threads still stuck nowhere? cool.), sure, keep telling yourself that. You could at least keep it to yourself out of politeness though, or at the very least check that what you're saying is accurate.

But then again, when it comes to quoting a culture war grifter, you can find a lot of stupid ass quotes.

Aside from a tiny amount of nerds needing post hoc rationalisation as to why they blew $1500 on a gimmick, absolutely nobody will go looking for a phone and consider grams/mm² as an important measure.

Cool, get big enough, become friends with the right people and you can squat an entire name on the internet. What, you're the Nepalese Party for Marxists, you've existed for 70 years and you want to buy npm.np ? Nope, tough luck, some random dude pushes shitty javascript packages over there. Sorry for the existing npm.org address too, we're going to expropriate the National Association of Pastoral Musicians. Dare I remind you that the whole left-pad situation was because Kik, the company, stole (with NPM's assistance because they were big enough and friends with the right people) the kik package ?

At least they're paying dozens of millions to buy a shitty ass .google that noone cares about because more and more browsers are hiding the URL bar. I'm glad ICANN can use it to buy drinks, hookers instead of being useful.

And then never even did anything with it.

I think you and I have drastically different ideas about how dramatic a response is warranted by the scenario of needing to buy a domain with a different three letters or maybe even four or more letters before the TLD.

> Dare I remind you that the whole left-pad situation was because Kik, the company, stole (with NPM's assistance because they were big enough and friends with the right people) the kik package ?

...and then the package was entirely removed, which would have been preventable by sane policies around making removal just not allow new dependencies to use it. You're also conflating a resource that's ostensibly free and perpetual for people to claim with one that's only rented for fixed periods of time for money.

So, yes, if you want to look good on pointless benchmarks, a M1 ultra ran for 1 minute is more efficient than a downclocked 3090.

Look at that updated graph which has less BS. It's never close in perf/watt.

The BS part about apples graph was that they cut the graph short for the nvidia card (and bending the graph a bit at the end). The full graph still shows apple being way better per watt.
