It's so retarded. Ghostscript can render perfectly, Apple has proved that using PS/PDF and a rednerer can produce excellent results. Ghostscript is free as in freedom Why isn't Linux font rendering fixed 15 years ago - why is it still so fucking bad?
Henry Miller
Do you have anything to object or is your opinion based on memes? In the latter case I strongly suggest getting freetype-2.9.1 and trying it with different settings.
I also suggest getting monitor with adequate PPI (at least 200). But this is a general suggestion disregarding your OS of choice.
John Clark
I'm assuming this isn't a bait, just pure ignorance. It's just decimals instead of hex. In #FFFFFF, you got two digits for red, two for blue and two for green, you convert each number to its hexadecimal representation and that's it. I know this is what Jow Forums has become over the past few years but I still used to take shit like that for granted, turns out I was totally wrong
Xavier Kelly
>freetype fixes it you just have to figure out the good settings. >btw get a 200ppi screen it'll help my post purchase rationalization how to not laugh and get pissed at linux nggers?
So, your opinion is based on memes. I do suggest trying it for yourself.
>You just need settings Same as everywhere. There are literally 3 parameters and a toggle. You can't choose the best from there? If you actually can't, use the default is in the DE of choice, should be good rough for you. >btw get a 200ppi screen it'll help my post purchase rationalization As I said, this suggestion is not for Linux, but for every OS. Fonts in my ~110 PPI screen look like shit regardless the OS compared to my laptop's ~211 PPI.
Daniel Edwards
what OS(es) are you using? What are your freetype settings?
John Ross
At home Windows10/Gentoo On laptop Void Linux.
Latter uses slight hinting, RGB subpixel and default LCD filter. My friend thinks full hitting looks better, but I disagree.
Nathaniel Hall
dude thoses settings are not enough to make the font rendering as good as on win7. Why are linux fags so unaware?
Lucas Nguyen
look at the libshit getting trold
Dylan Murphy
I wasn't trolling, user.
Eli Diaz
Font rendering is absolutely shit on windows 7, you're fucking delusional. Setting a custom resolution on Linux works flawlessly and everything is sharp, windows 7 makes everything blurry as fuck.
Where can I read about Haiku's clipboards? For example, I want to mpv $(xclip -o -selection clipboard
Julian Scott
Did it.

Not here yet. Why are only some windows can tile/stack? I can't tile the window spawned by the HaikuDepot and there is no indication of that. Also, there needs to be some "smart" window resizer, as the tiled windows often leave the screen and are impossible to resize properly with mouse. What are the shortcuts for that? Also also, some windows have arbitrary minimal dimentions(HaikuDepot refused to become smaller.)
>but there is a bug in libc implementation Why haven't it been fixed "since long"?
Isaiah Barnes
the icons remind me on the good old bluecurve days with redhat 9, that might make me switch.
Parker Clark
Be vary that there is but one user and the user is root. I don't think there's a password even.
Jason Green
You don't see people googling to fix their windows font rendering problems do you? Linux on the other hand... >works flawlessly and everything is sharp oh yeah sure.
And all of them have either disabled cleartype or want it to look like their Mac.
Ethan Campbell
>And all of them Why do you enjoy lying to much? >disabled cleartype or want it to look like their Mac. So they find it unsatisfactory which contradicts your claim.
>which contradicts your claim. I'm not that guy. Setting up your fonts in Linux sucks anyway. It's true. That is because X sucks fucking dicks and should have been thrown into the trash 20 years ago. The year of the Linux desktop will NEVER come if people just refuse to acknowledge it's shortcomings. Redhat will be the only one driving things forward, and they really do a terrible job at it.
Benjamin Evans

Why is this shit so popular? It's not good by design
Sebastian Lopez
it isn't popular
Blake Hill
your face isn't good by design
Jackson Davis
The bars to the left is CMYK but the right is just RGB
Landon Davis
the base system does have support for multiple accounts, it's just not implemented on the desktop level yet.
Cameron Torres
After nearly two decades working with IT I can tell you that "good by design" is another way to say "dead". I'm not proud or happy about stating this.
Samuel Wright
Is haiku usable? Does it run rstudio and a python and other things? Can it do wifi
Might as well run ESXi with several virtual machines and sandboxes like a real adult.
Hudson Green

Justin Hall
Thats not true. The bars are interesting, they shows what will happen if you move the dots. Test it, you will see, the colors in the bars changing.
We can conclude from these searches that terrible Linux rendering is a meme, Windows rendering is best described as ugly and has problems frequent enough, and Mac rendering is considered good.
David Peterson
What's the difference between haiku and Mac OS X?
Jose Perry
But it is fixed. It's better than Windows at this point.
Jason Diaz
Nightly 64 bit now has: >Qutebrowser >Emacs (Spacemacs works!) >Vim >Rust >Go >GCC 7 >mpv It's literally a few driver fixes (and GPU accel in general) away from working for the typical Jow Forumsentooman.
