Application optimization reduces disk usage and reclaims space. 🙂
- When I hit the power button, it turns off. It still does its shutdown and all, but it’s not an extended negotiation where I find a bunch of programs that are refusing to “let me” do what I want the computer to do, and have to try to make each of them happy. It just turns off.
Double edged sword. Applications asking if you want to save your stuff aren’t designed to annoy you, they’re designed to save you from the headache of losing your work.
But I can see why you’d want the power button to be a “stronger signal” than clicking Shut Down in some menu.
Until your toddler presses it and the OS just tosses all the work that you didn’t save yet. It’s good with a safeguard, and Windows will eventually force shut down after a timeout.
rip that document you forgot to save
I’m a big fan of
init 0. My friends say I’m living on the edge but if an application can’t handle it, I don’t want it.Firmware update: am I a joke to you?
What negotiation? I have a hard time to follow what you mean. Which operating system does turn off when shutting down? If it does not, then either its configured to do so (or not to) or there is an issue that needs to be handled and resolved. You don’t want your PC turn off immediately, so it can do stuff that is needed (such as wait for all drives to write the data) or remove temporary files and unmount drives and so on. Otherwise an instant turn off is equivalent to a crash (including all background services and running applications, losing data, corrupting drives…).
Pretty sure both windows and macos allow programs to interrupt shutdown, usually if there’s any unsaved documents open. I quite like that feature actually, if it’s used correctly anyway.
Alright, I want two apps that depend on two different version of python, but won’t work on the other.
No warning, no notice, just one of the two fails to start. Thank you package manager
yay python31{0…2}
Or three docker containers
And that’s why nix exists.
I tried it, ye. And although I like the concept, I can’t say the implementation was to my liking
