Are all GUIs bloat?
Leo Hughes
Caleb Phillips
Yes.
Charles Sanchez
No.
Jonathan Scott
any kind of raster graphics is bloat. pixels waste light and energy when you're not displaying 100% red green and blue. there is no way to disable this
Ryder Wood
vectorial graphics ftw
Parker Butler
No but a good portion of GUIs suck
Oliver Phillips
Nice fucking tablet OS. A fucking foot!
Adam Thomas
>tablet OS
haha get it because it has le big buttons haha so tablet KDE users rise up
Lucas Rivera
hundreds of hours of your life in memorizing and learning about cli utilities, their command arguments, scripting languages, system design, special snowflake keyboard mappings, endless tinkering with configs to use things like TUIs a.k.a. GUI-lite your special snowflake way is indeed not 'bloat', you can pretend all you do or desire out of a computer is batch processing anyway
Cooper Nelson
>muh bloat
Jow Forums with their autistic memes are so silly
Let's translate this meme to cars:
Car interiors are bloat. You'd want to strip out as much as possible to reduce bloat. Pic related
Ayden Jones
It's perfect now
Gavin Long
That mentality does have a place within certain confines, servers for instance.On a desktop computer though? Doubtful. Your analogy is a good one because it addresses the issue of comfort, and that's really all any of the squabbling on Jow Forums is about.
Grayson Bell
I still see bloat, under the windshield. And wooden or plastic chairs would be more lightweight and minimalistic.
Hudson Brooks
Thanks. Agreed. And pic related is within the confines of a racing car, derby car racing. Pic related (looks like the Linux kernel, good use of duct tape).
Carter Reyes
It's fast.
It's lightweight.
And it's uncomertable. Not something you would use outside the racing track.
Julian Gonzalez
batteries in a milk crate in the passenger floorboard, if the driver rolls that car he will be getting fucked by those batteries
yeah, thats what i want 50 pounds of batteries and battery acid on top of me
Josiah Brooks
Looks fine to me
Aiden Morris
Well technically It's lighter so you consume less fuel.
And it look good too.
Christopher Bailey
I'd unnironicly use that if i could.
Juan Garcia
No, because a GUI is useful for 99% of users. Bloat is shit that's kept for little to no reason, like all the compatibility shit Windows forces everyone to have in order to run *some* Win95 software.
William Miller
Launchpad and dashboard are bloat
Hudson Carter
GUIs, TUIs and CLIs all have their use.
Alexander Kelly
>the Linux kernel
As opposed to the other Linux?
Caleb Gutierrez
>Car interiors are bloat. You'd want to strip out as much as possible to reduce bloat
Unironically yeah. If your goal is performance and focus on your task, than reduce bloat is the first step
Grayson Hernandez
if you have a keyboard, yes
Blake Hall
How stupid are you that it takes hundreds of hours to learn some CLI tools for things you do frequently?
Ethan Thomas
No, but all modern GUIs are.
