Nobody provides SMS levels of interop on unrestricted internet messaging platforms because the experience sucks. Running the IM equivalent of an open SMTP relay is a ghastly experience for users. You literally have to gatekeep because the a

I'm here for the upstreamed Arc GPU support, lol. I could probably have made it work with 22.04 with enough poking but I don't generally like upgrading major versions anyway. I was actually checking earlier but it hadn't re

Yes, “appealing to the public” is a thing. Like surely even trump would have had at least an excuse on paper for choosing to favor Russia over Ukraine - and azov battalion is a good one, because hey, there really are Nazis. Absolutely “bu

Is this actual spending, or are you rolling pass-through savings programs into this? Cause the caveat there is people always seem to want to count the outflow but not the associated inflow…

Change in political control is a possibility in any democracy. AfD could hypothetically take power in Germany at some point - at least enough to stall things out “until the situation is clear”/“until Ukraine handles their Nazi problem”

A lot of generics (and name brands!) really don’t work right though. Scroll wheel is a mess in macOS. Logi ergo scroll wheel doesn’t work. ProtoArc M01 works for a bit then stops working after a few minutes. Logi M575 works flawlessly.

Copyright isn’t real, and gatekeeping pop culture in this fashion is ahistorical and revisionist, it’s literally not a thing that existed like this until the 19th or even 20th century. You can always pirate media/movies, above all else

the “onlyfans model” - if you want people to stay subscribed, then offer them discounts to do so ;) if you incentivize signups you are probably disincentivizing long-term retention just implicitly.

AIs can definitely mux a couple ideas and come up with a concept that’s not in the training work set already. In fact, it is often so willing to do it that the concepts often don’t make a sense, but certainly it does generate ideas that are

To clarify this a little further: I don't think you can do a sit-in and not expect retaliation. And that's how the labor-managment pushback works. It doesn't mean the labor retaliation won't be justified either - and i

Can you demonstrate that there is not an attribution in the Intel Management Engine documentation? ;) Sneaky or not, that's the license Tanenbaum chose, and he has to live with it. Same deal here. Anyway no, tanenbaum isn't mad

what exactly do you expect them to do about the routing? 384b gpus are as big as memory buses get in the modern era and that gives you 24gb capacity or 48gb when clamshelled. Higher-density 3GB modules that would allow 36GB/72GB have

This is just like tannenbaum getting mad nobody credited him for the intel management engine (which he feels makes him the posthumous victor in the Linux/minix debates). Bro, you shouldn’t have chosen a non-attribution license, if you

Oddly enough, the EU isn’t racing to bust down the door of these “gatekeepers” and require third-party interoperability with this socially-critical service. Pretty much just an apple thing as far as I can see.
