Yeah this is just a link to the branding page. I do appreciate the discussion of "system 500" at the bottom. But if you yank out the "brand" from the URL you'll get the actual site.

Literally the second line of the article addresses your questions by linking to the source code repo under discussion. Every single one of the sidebars about the topics being discussed links directly to the relevant code. The article even

The guy below downvoted for insulting SV and saying "read chapter 5" is correct: Read Chapter 5, the "Symbiote or Parasite" one you've partially quoted here. It's a real banger. Read it both in the context of

The original title, "State of multi-player Wayland" is a much better summary of the article. This ain't just about the pointers! In fact, the author is very explicit about that: > I think there could be a term that’s des

You'll see this kind of fun in other databases that support "persistent connections." When you start up, you have absolutely no idea what the state of the database is. If a previous process errored out, you might find yoursel

No, actually, an interactive textual conversation is a significantly different thing than a television show.

The reason for this is that there are still drivers for old hardware that hook into the old control panel elements to actually function. If you get rid of the control panel applets, you break the drivers. This is also an old and out-of-date

Man, I wish that tool was available fifteen years ago. All of our machines in our half-Linux half-Windows manufacturing operation were Q chips with vPro motherboards, that we (I) chose on purpose, but we didn't have the IT bandwidth t

I'm not surprised that nobody noticed it at all. That's because it's not a KVM that you can purchase and test, the subject to the article. Instead, you're just talking about IMPIjr. These specific features are not in con

Life. Being alive. I'm not going to get into a semantic debate with you so don't bother following up with some whining about conflating life and consciousness. It's autocomplete. It is not alive, it cannot think, it cannot se

Consciousness excludes all current AI because all current AI is just autocomplete over the corpus of human text. It's just a word machine. There are no thoughts. It cannot be conscious. How is this even up for debate in any way whatsoe

by McGlockenshire 4mo ago
Fancypants autocomplete cannot be conscious. It's just echoing previous human experiences, which make it sound like a person. It is not a person. It is an algorithm. There is no mechanism by which it can obtain consciousness. People be

The button renders itself after the user interface is complete. It bumps over all the other buttons to the right. The home or work button gets replaced with the AI button. This is infuriating for muscle memory. Whoever did this will need to

You seem to be missing the entire point of the exercise and perhaps you should go back and read the article again to understand what you're missing.

That article is approaching 15 years old and no longer reflects reality.

by McGlockenshire 5mo ago
You should read the article and gain understanding of the thing that you think you're criticizing. Then you will understand the parent comment. Your argument is a non-sequitur.

Nope! The Chrome updater on Windows 11 ignores the metered flag.

Google's updater service also currently ignores the windows 11 metered connection hint. It will gladly download that model over your cell connection even if you have a data cap. This is infuriating behavior. Silicon Valley must wake up

And also incredibly trivial to fix. Most VPS providers include their own backup services, and for the rest there's rsnapshot and some other cheaper VPS somewhere else to keep it "off site." Too many have forgotten what it mea

The only thing that systemd did was add a space and api to store an attested birth date. That is what the entire meltdown was about. A CRUD API. Everything else about complying with the wacko age verification law is up to distro builders.

Thank you for the inspiration, I now have a practical-impractical assembly project for my TI TMS99105A homebrew! The 64k barrier is a real pain.

In fact the 9900 itself was used in an entire line of minicomputers that included a hardware memory map. The 9900 is a single chip implementation of the CPU board in the TI 990. They even created a dedicated memory mapper chip to go along w
