One of the chief things that make macbooks commendable over PCs is the build quality. While I don’t doubt there are very many PCs with better hardware at that price point, often macs are superior by robustness, display resolution, and the quality of their keyboards and trackpads.

I hope this cheaper model doesn’t cheap out on that front. And if it also gets good Asahi Linux support, then it would get me to recommend it above anything else.

We will see soon enough.

The first one was an excuse to get a look at some virtual ass.

Now I don’t necessarily object to that, but maybe also put a well-made story in there, too ? Bayonetta is also an excuse to get a look at some virtual ass, yet no one objects because it makes sense in-universe.

But if they partnered with GrapheneOS, there could have been a concerted effort to remedy that.

Welp. This comment has completely killed all my enthusiasm for matrix 😅 I had no idea it was such a horrible mess under the hood…

I’m trying to move some communities off Discord to something self hosted but I don’t know enough about SMPP to know if it would do the job.

50 people is an irrelevant sample size. Just because the findings seem to make sense doesn’t mean the study is good.

Well, fuck. I really hoped they would pick FairPhone. Motorola is… Okay. I guess they made the Nexus 5 ; which was one of the best phones ever.

I hope they make a SMALL one, I am so tired of this GIGANTIC pixel 9.

👏🏻 We 👏🏻 demand 👏🏻 public 👏🏻 executions 👏🏻

No. In interpreted languages that is kinda true, in compiled languages that is definitely false.

The code is a simplification. It has a direct relationship to what actually happens, yes, but most often glosses over the details (even in C and other very low level languages)

NixOS is missing cause they graduated early 😎

Ha ! I’m autistic so I was born with the innate ability to piss people off on accident, while being entirely unable to notice until it’s much too late 😅

I hope some day I can overcome the second, for now I have only been able to improve on the first…

Pretty sure the same soda from cans vs bottles rarely has the same formula. Specifically Coca-Cola, it tastes way different !

Okay, but, good AI does not exist for now… So this should mean she’s intolerant to all AI, which is obviously not true ; ergo : she’s lying.

Well, she chose AI, so she’s already failed !

Good job. It won’t succeed thanks to your privilege, because it won’t succeed at all !

Oh he’s way past that point already. Even the most horrible of public executions would not be punishment enough.

Let him burn in hell forever, if hell indeed exists.

As a Computer Scientist, I increasingly believe this tech might actually be poison for the human mind, and I’m not sure what to do about it.

I want to believe we can make it actually useful. But I don’t know if that’s possible or not.

Of course I use SecureBoot, if you know how to set it up it has no inconvenients ! But that doesn’t go all the way up to the apps !

I have no idea what life was like before systemd so while I like it I have no way to compare

I’ve never cared for Xbox but at least it had a personality before Xbox One. An annoying, idiotic personality that I thoroughly disliked, but it had a personality nonetheless. It was the “fratbro” of the pack.

Ever since Xbox One though, the fratbro graduated and suddenly became the most bland and boring corporate guy you’ve ever heard of. And as every corporate guy nowadays, he now has caught the AI brain rot.

I was enthusiastic about LadyBird until I learnt that the guy leading the project i s a white supremacist, via pivot-to-ai.

Now I hope either someone else takes it over, or that it crashes and burns.

You know what ? If this law is only imposed on commercial operating systems, and I can make my free OS lie and say I’m 100+ ; then maybe this could work.
