Yep I made it ‘hidden’ but it didn’t work. So maybe a Xiaomi thing for sure, and I already have the f-droid app so I’m good :-)

Already got it ☺️ from F-Droid.

Doesn’t work for me.

And to be honest, it feels like the whole “windows is usable you just have to…” do things all the time (then it gets removed from time to time, or changed or ignored)

Thanks for the tip though!

Yeah I need a good camera, and I heard the pixel is good. I’ll look into that, I can probably keep an older xiaomi for my banking app with all the google crap on it…

You’re the (working for free) tester now.

And even simple things like the gallery is so bad, scanning your whole phone. I want the gallery yo show my photos, not my video collection or downloaded images.

I’m not rich, but if I could I’d jump ship with my xiaomi 13t.

Shouldn’t the wolf be the hacker?

Just make a new 2D isometric Iceland Dale and it will sustain a small dev team no problemo IMO. Then don’t push the tech but write new stories and expand the world. But no, it doesn’t have microtransactions and you can’t get funding without selling your soul I guess.

I’d love working on a project like that, I miss the old game dev days 😊😌.

My eyes opened when a videogame in a company I worked for (I worked on another title) was made under hard conditions, polished, pushed under almost burnout conditions to be finished “in time”, and the budget for commercials was 4x the dev budget…

Depends, apple & linux are toe to toe in the research world.

It’s so portable! With maximal efforts we support both windows 7, windows 8.1 (but not 8.0), windiws 10 and soon Windows 11 !!!

BTW I dream of staying in Mint. Naah.

Black Adder?

The main parts are the dependency of your files ofc, if they all depends on file A, then that A has to be compiled first, mono tread. Secondly depending on your project (is it lots of dlls or one biig executable) the linker might be a big choke point, as it’s kind of mono threaded (per project).

CCache can be fantastic, I worked on a 700-project soft (one executable), almost 2GB cpp source code, full recompile took around 2h on a modern 10/20 CPU, just compiling was often a drag but with cache it shrank compile times way more than any multiprocessing could.

If you’re several working on a big project you can share the build cache too, so your rebuild will be almost instant because your co-workers have already compiled everything except your changes.

Not yet, bit give it five ten years and your PC will be behind a cheap smartphone. At least that is what history have teached me.

And of course there will always be specific needs that a phone can’t handle, some years ago we had a client with a PC that had 1TB RAM, but that’s not what I had in mind, a desktop usually can be quite okay with a quadcore +16GB RAM, hence the comparison with a phone.

Why do you have that big a heatsink 😲 ?

Old video game dev so compiling needs no explanation either :-D I dreamed of those 20 cores cpus back in the day… Feels like at 8-10 cores you’re hitting a reduced returns though.

And obligatory have you accepted the lord and saviour CCache?

Cheers

Sure, I prefer my PC cores & faster bus to my incredible SSD, but I feel we’re getting phones that might be enough for many people.

Just out of curiosity, are you doing heavy lifting like CAD or such, or why do you need more power? Again I’m only currios, we all have wildly different needs!

My phone has 8 cores and 16+16 GB RAM.

It’ll be okay for me.

Phones nowadays are so powerful I’d switch out my home PC if I could.
