What you gain is that programs render at the native resolution of both displays. In terms of appearance, it looks noticeably clearer, since no downsampling or upsampling necessary. But the nicest thing is that it just works — I don’t need to configure any settings to prevent windows from being displayed unreadably small or gigantically large.
Screen tearing is the big pain of X11 in my experience. Most things work fine, but watching videos or playing games is a terrible experience when dealing with constant screen tears.
I tried a bunch of different configs and was able to minimize them significantly, but they were still there.
The whole notion of equivalency of evil is actually pernicious, as it is more of a contest of victimhood: "they did worse to us, so we are better". Arguing about numbers abstracts from the reality that even one person being killed for such an inhuman regime is already too many.
I think it would be sufficient to condemn the evil that was committed rather than make a certain group better because "They suffered more". So many suffered from that evil regime that we don't need a contest to see who is better. The Catholic clergy were in fact terribly persecuted in German and Poland by the Nazi regime, hundreds of priests being killed in Dachau alone. This doesn't take away the horrors that others suffered nor allow us to somehow abstract from them just because "our tribe suffered more".
Right. So he would've been acutely aware of the implications of his work and how it might be received. Maybe that's why he didn't publish his book until 2 months prior to his death over a decade after completing the first manuscript. AFAIK Protestants are Christians.
Awesome! So 'telegra.ph' allows anyone to post a richly-formatted HTTPS site right from Telegram. Neat!
It should be fairly simple from here, to display contents of said HTTPS site on their own blog or website, so that they can write and edit their site directly from Telegram.
This is exactly what I imagined when I thought of Telegram-as-a-CMS. Thanks!
Yes, the phone has to be connected to the internet for it to work. It says so in the documentation, and on the very first page "To use the Signal desktop app, Signal must first be installed on your phone."
You have confused me. The statement you quote seems to say that Signal must be install on the phone in order to get Signal working on the desktop. That does not, to me, imply that Signal must be up and running on your phone while you use Signal on the desktop.
Suppose I install and configure Signal/Phone, then install and configure Signal/Desktop, then turn off the phone.
Will Signal/Desktop still work while the phone is turned off?
* If yes, then what you say appears to be wrong.
* If no, then that's genuinely astonishing to me, and I've learning something.
The previous thread is incorrect. Signal desktop can work despite having the mobile phone active. That's the key advantage over Telegram and WhatsApp. Telegram's secret chats are not synchronized. Neither is WhatsApp's, and even worse, WhatsApp's desktop-based chat is just a projected copy of mobile. In other words, WhatsApp's desktop version works as long as mobile is active/is connected to the internet.
This is incorrect. Signal desktop can continue to work without having Signal mobile active. My mobile phone is on airplane mode and is being charged at the moment, but I am on a call with my colleague using Signal desktop. They are on Signal mobile.
The article doesn't actually answer the question. How many kilometers and what is the depth of the sound channel? Where does the pressure/temperaure ratio cause sound to difract?
After reading such an article I feel none the wiser, as the words are barely defined and no specifics given. Is there anywhere else to find better info?
