There are a few lines running short distances in the Northeast U.S. that get up to 150, but there is nothing like China’s long range passenger rail that avera … ⌘ Read more

GNOME 48 released
One of the two major open source desktop environments, GNOME, just released version 48, and it’s got some very big and welcome improvements.

It will improve the smoothness and fluidity of animations and other movements on the screen, as it did for KDE when it landed there in the middle of last year.

Why fastDOOM is fast
How much faster is fastDOOM than regular Doom on a decked-out 486 from 1993? 30% faster without cutting any features! On a demanding map like doom2’s demo1, the gain is even higher, from 16.8 fps to 24.9 fps. That is 48% faster! I did not suspect that DOOM had left that much on the table. Obviously shipping within one year left little time to optimize. I had to understand how this magic trick happened. ↫ Fabien Sanglard What follows is an incredibly detailed exploration of why, exactly, fa … ⌘ Read more

kept it chill with between 9:30 and 10:00. the first half almost felt too easy. it was not until i had to go over the overpasses again where my legs started to actually feel it a bit. the leg back i would just “rope” people in and then slow down for a bit to rest. this was a great confidence boost and a nice way to end the year.
