That's fine, but again, you need to be clear on where you're drawing the line. Because boycotting "anything remotely involving AI" means boycotting all mainstream operating systems (Linux, Windows, Android, macOS, iOS) -

If that's going to be your definition, then it's going to be extremely difficult, if not impossible to have a 100% human made program, unless you've personally hand-coded the entire OS, or you've verified beyond doubt th

I don't know the answer, so please do enlighten.

If you're an engineer, you'll understand why it's not petty. You do not want ambiguity in engineering. If you cannot even define what it is that you're campaigning for, then it's just random ramblings with no substa

What if the library was human-made, but that library included a library that was vibe-coded? If that's not okay, what if the library included a library which included a library that was vibe-coded?

The question remains. Where do you draw the line? What are the rules? The site only states " There's only one rule: generative AI cannot be used in the creation of the project. ", without defining any further rules, nor does

If your aim is to only record gameplay (and not stream), then there are far better Wayland-native tools like wl-screenrec[1] for wlroots-based compositors and gpu-screen-recorder[2] for others. The latter even supports live streaming, so co

It actually failed even before that. The project states "The goal is to make moving between Linux, macOS, WSL, containers, and Windows frictionless: the same commands, flags, and pipelines work the same way, so *existing scripts carry

How the heck is a portable 637KB .exe that doesn't require any installation, extraction or admin rights to run, "too heavy weight"?

Speaking of which, is there ever going to be another IRL linux.conf.au? I really miss those, and the good old LUG meetups. I'm surrounded by Microsoft people at work day in and day out and I'm desperate to reconnect with my kind.

WebKit isn't really independent - while it is technically opensource, it is effectively controlled by Apple. In fact, Apple were the ones who originally forked it from KHTML. They continue to be majority contributors and drive the prod

I don't get it, why use Python here? The engines are already written in Rust, why not go all the way and just write the whole thing in Rust?

How is this any different than existing solutions like aria2? I'd also like to see some benchmarks for the same download using the same chunk size settings with Rapel vs aria2.

It's got nothing to do with YouTube - people just don't download music any more, period. At least not like they used to, back in the late 90s and 00s. Instead, most people these days stream music from the myriad of streaming servi

The whole point of a laptop is portability. I would never buy anything >15. I mean they wouldn't even fit in my backpack. And whilst there may be a shiton of "sandwich makers", not all of them are all-AMD and have excellen

Phones are primarily communication devices though, so they're not a fair comparison. As for cargo pants, that's usually what I wear (along with cargo shorts during summer) so I don't really see it as a problem - they're

I'm not saying it's meant to be a primary device. I'm simply saying that just adding a keyboard adds a huge quality of life improvement, and the bigger size allows you to pack in more power whilst still being pocketable and p

You'd be considered lucky if you can even find an email address. I had some of my personal info crop up on Google searches on Fedora mailing lists, I've emailed various people at Fedora to get them delete my old messages or redact

How about a lightweight immutable distro, like say Fedora CoreOS or openSUSE MicroOS? Fedora CoreOS in particular has had a good track record delivering patches quickly. Like for CopyFail was pushed to the stable channel in about a day, IIR

There's also the Mini version which is handheld. Doesn't have the modular ports and RS232 etc though.

A MacBook can't fit in a pant pocket though. The GPD can, well, at least in cargo pant pockets.

If you're strictly taking about the Zero, I'd agree with you, but with the One they're entering a new market. I mean, kind of people who like to mess around with Linux and do hacker-y network-y things are also generally the k

We don't know the cost of the One yet. Besides, the GPD can also be used for playing AAA games, and the keyboard makes it far more useful as a general purpose PC.

I have the GPD Win Mini and it fits fine in my cargo pant pockets.

Cool, but I think they're holding themselves back with that weird form-factor. I would've preferred if they'd included a full QWERTY keyboard, like the the GPD Pocket 4[1] or the GPD Win Mini. With a proper keyboard, I could

Because you've not done anything new, you made yet another Webkit-based browser - and there's plenty of them out there. Sorry, but no one cares. If you wrote own HTML/CSS/JS engine and targeted Linux (without using GTK),
