For what it's worth, while I may fall into the trap of clickbait sometimes, I'd probably be just as likely to open a link to "LLM discourse needs more nuance" than I would to the original. If the original had been any mo

It's probably wrong with respect to hedgehogs, but then, it's a metaphor, and what it's trying to say about human relationships makes sense to me in some way. The more intimate you are with someone, the more you're also

It's a bit more nuanced than that. Fedora disabled hardware video decoding support in their Mesa builds, which mostly affects AMD GPUs. Intel has hardware video decoding in the GPU driver (or in the firmware or wherever), and it&#x27

Since AFAIK most of the current production of rare earth metals is in China and (to an extent) the United States, large deposits being found in Europe would be interesting from a general technology point of view, IMO. Kiruna also has some o

I sometimes find it more convenient to carry a laptop to the meeting room or to a separate teleconferencing space (or even to the couch at home) with the lid closed. Especially if I'm also carrying something in my other hand.

I'm not a mathematician, but what you're asking is a valid question in philosophy of mathematics. Generally, mathematical realism sees mathematical objects as existing independently of the human mind while anti-realist schools of

Are you running some kind of an OS that doesn't need reboots for any of its updates? Are you using some kind of live patching? I (somewhat) rarely do a full reboot either, and Linux on my laptop may go for a couple of months without a

I've been using Vorta as a GUI for Borg for a while for personal use. It's not the prettiest thing out there but it has seemed to work fine so far. As far as restoring from old backup goes, though, I've only really tried that

Yeah, it still sounds large. As I said, I wasn't really commenting on that. I was commenting on the fact that someone seemed to be deducing a number they can't deduce based on the article they said it was from.

How significant are those downsides, really? A price difference of ~50 USD doesn't really matter to many people (in the techie demographic). It definitely doesn't and shouldn't matter to a tech company. The risk of a country

These kinds of things probably still depend a lot on the brand and the product line. The post is really only an anecdote about a ThinkPad, and a relatively old one at that, which is probably as good as it gets in terms of Linux compatibilit

I guess housing prices are a bit of an issue. But I think 500k+ for an apartment pretty much suggests either a large city/metro, or a large-ish apartment that you probably wouldn't be paying for alone. And if the interest doesn&#x
