Billionaires inherently get political power. When they’re more socially adept than Musk, they can even have the power without having the plebs notice.

Go back to reading man pages for fun - your venture into non-technical writing was a failed experiment.

Rust forces you to consider things upfront, or to put it another way, a C developer does what the borrow checker does manually. Sometimes, they do it after asan/ubsan/tsan has reported the issue. Sometimes it's after a segfau

Yeah, but the majority of people who would've been daily desktop or at least laptop users some 10 to 15 years ago now make do with a phone. Most people do not need to visualize any large corpus or edit large documents. Similarly, there

What is the license situation here?

Does it have IPMI? Does it have ECC ram? Racking Mac Minis is a painful enough, this form factor is less rackable than that. If you need to physically adjust the form factor per device, whatever you could've saved will be immediately l

GTA V multiplayer was working fine on Proton not too long ago. Haven't played in years though.

Licensing? What do you mean, licensing? Other manufacturers are free to take it. It's all open source.

Mobile is where the users are. Desktop users are vanishing before our eyes as a market segment.

Some people really don't want to spend time exchanging parts when the memory they buy turns out to be incompatible or that the GPU doesn't fit the sleek mITX case. There's a lot of research to ensure all parts are compatible

I think it works really well to pump the same amount of pixels, just focusing them on the more important parts.

Oh the irony - we don't want to pay for ffmpeg's development, but sure can finance a fork if we have to.

That's how game controllers can be paired - just plug them in.

You can use nextcloud for all pf that, not that I’d recommend it. There are solutions, even hosted ones.

Allowing me to run my own code doesn’t involve the dick waving contest.

If only you could run your own software on the computer you bought and paid for.

It would’ve been great if it was a 1:1 copy, but the soviets made the design cheaper to produce and less reliable.

There are entire kernels and userlands written in go that are used in production today, in rather constrained environments no less. Technically sim cards run a kind of Java derivative too. I dislike both languages but that doesn’t mean they

Rust certainly was not the first "systems programming" language that was memory safe, ADA was aiming for the same title and I think achieved it way before Rust.

Does Fortnite? I remember finishing hl2 on dx level 7, and then trying the same with ep1 and ep2. Those games are a lot harder when half the physics objects are not rendered. Do not get me wrong - I run Linux on all of my personal machines

Just to be clear, I don’t think your parenting decisions here are harmful, and I wouldn’t be where I am today if it wasn’t for the centimeter thick gentoo manual. My only plea is to acknowledge the downsides- and it might well be the case t

At the time it was a GTA title. Regardless, the Linux alternatives are useless, there is no alternative to the socially agreed upon phenomena, the child can either participate pr they cannot. The exclusion is not necessarily a bad thing, bu

When forced to use Linux at an early age, I was given the agency to be made fun of and miss out on social things, i.e. discussing currently relevant games. It got me the jobs and knowledge eventually too, but I really did not learn much fro

I think a common misconception is that smart people are not happy. I think a lot of people who'd like to think of themselves as smart end up chasing this identity instead of being happy. This doesn't seem to be all to smart to me.

Even if alternative app stores are opened up, there are enough limitations that severely impede the device for me as is. You can't use a VPN and at the same time do service discovery on your local network, for instance. For some servic
