Ahh, that’s a shame. Blobs would kill the whole thing dead for a large proportion of their customer base. Let’s hope they find a way to resolve it.

The fail0verflow team that got Linux to run on the PS4 ran a single, very slow PCIe lane over RS232 as I recall so that they could intercept the traffic. It’s very tolerant.

I was thinking the same, I dunno if they sold well enough to justify a new version, but I hope so. I’ve been tempted several times, but it seems like quite a lot of money for a Linux box that probably has quite a lot of subtle incompatibil

Betteridge's law applies as it always does. Oyster isn’t going anywhere because there are always going to be those edge cases. Tourists who would pay large fx fees if they use their contactless cards, children prone to spending their c

Anyone expecting the scientific establishment (or in fact anyone) to have a clear, consistent and coherent picture right the way through a pandemic caused by a novel virus is being unrealistic. The advice changes as we know better what we’

If you have to have root already this doesn’t buy you much though. Perhaps a hard-to-detect way for disgruntled bofhs to do bad things, that’s about it.

I’m not sure that’s true. Mainframes can scale up as well, in my limited experience you get the thing fully loaded but don’t necessarily pay for all of it. If you need to scale up you just unlock another set of CPUs and pay the vendor a bi

It’s not like it’s even verifiable is it? Literally anyone can say that.

You can’t.

Of course you can, Docker’s play here is not about what’s technically possible. It’s about what they can convince your IT / infosec team to block.

Docker desktop for Linux is coming. They’ve already said so. Your boss is going to end up paying for Docker. Giving your security department the ability to restrict what images you can pull is going to become a checkbox in your infosec au

I initially thought this would be another usenet story.

Taking that energy out of weather systems seems like a good idea too, given the extreme weather we’ve been seeing over the last few years. Perhaps it’s too small amount of energy to make a difference though.

Sure, but Barclays made it trivial.

Is there any better idea for how to stop people deliberately harming each other with bad information? Particularly in light of confirmation bias and the level of effort required to disprove vs the amount of effort required to make stuff up.

This is pretty obviously a bad idea. Credit agencies already have all the relevant information, whether you take out loans or credit cards and whether you pay them on time. Anything else is at best correlation, which as we know is not the s

If Windows is making changes at scheduler level to support it, I would think yes, they do.

This feels like the 80/20 rule in action. These boards mostly work but had (in my experience) non-trivial reliability and quality issues and they would have been expensive and tricky to get fully right. The cynic in my says another com

It doesn’t sound like anyone outside of Intel and Microsoft actually knows how this works. How are Linux and the BSDs going to be able to support this?

iOS 4 on the 3G was a killer.

Always buy the model with the most RAM and it’ll last a long time. iPhone 6s (from 2015!) is still a perfectly functional phone.

Why do you think this is good for the stock price?

Honestly, I despair.

What choice do you have at this point? If you’re not on these platforms how does anyone find you?

Great, FreeBSD might actually get big.little support now.

It seems you missed the whole point of an actually pretty interesting article and wrote a frankly boring rant about one word that seemingly triggered you. Probably better not to bother next time.

Zoom doesn’t support screen sharing on Wayland, except through some propriety Gnome API. It also doesn’t run at all for me on sway, just crashes at startup.

Let’s do that - on highways where it’s worth the investment. And let’s stop pretending that self-driving is in any way viable on normal roads. Outside of that relatively controlled environment, there are too many inputs and the reasoning re

Absolutely the government were in it for themselves, not for the people. The average Afghan has no love for the Taliban or the government but it’s pragmatic to side with whoever is winning.

The arrogance here is next level. Nobody is confused, you’re just wrong.
