Sure. I think we mostly stand on the same line here. I just tend to take hard stance against anything I find user hostile. Nagging, dark patterns, exploiting addictions, attempts at leeching personal information, lock-in, etcetra will qui

That was not intended to be read as a literal quote or an attempt to make it appear as if you said something you didn't. That's a fairly common way of picking a message apart to make a point, on some parts of the internet. Som

I think legislation is the only way to fix this :( Require owner's/user's consent to connect. If no consent, no connect. Device's offline capabilities must still work and it must not nag you or otherwise use dark patte

Does yours beep if you don't open the lid in a minute after it turns off? Mine does and that is super annoying. Annoying enough that I'm thinking of removing the buzzer or just buying another microwave. I do like the simple dual

If you're a genuine claimant, you have little to worry about because you don't make false claims.

> Finally, dynamic loading isn't even the right surface for messing with the behavior of existing binaries. Then what is? Dropping a custom library next to a binary tends to be way easier than modifying the binary.

I agree that shared libraries are mostly unneeded complexity, as far as free & open source programs are concerned. I kinda like how they open up opportunities for fixing or tweaking the behavior of broken proprietary binary-only garbage

It's not that hard. It just requires time, and I would be happy to spend that time (I love writing, whether docs or just thoughts). As long as there's no ticket for it (approved by a stakeholder and assigned to me by the microman

I don't think I'm ever going to approve of any sort of automated copyright claim system but if Google wanted to make it one bit fair, they should use the same concept of three strikes against the accounts that make false claims an

For personal project my hard limit is 80 cols. For work stuff, mandated by employer, we do something like 120 cols with clang-format. Four or five columns of code side by side, so I can see hundreds of lines of code at once. I still pref

GB5 = Geekbench 5. It is a real world benchmark.

by thraway123412 6y ago
It absolutely would. These cores are in a completely different class. If you care about benchmarks, a Pi4 will score around 200 points (1 core) or 550 points (4 core) at 1.5GHz on GB5. At 2GHz you can reach around 700 points multi-core. R

Yeah, nice. I just assumed Amazon is representative of what most people would end up paying for them. For my region, the actual distributors start at 44 EUR for 2GB and 64 EUR for 4GB.

2GB Pi is $55 on amazon. 4GB version is $62. That'd be $450+ for the eight pies. Ryzen 2700 launched at $300 (and tapered down to ~$200) and would pretty much run circles around such a Pi cluster. Just saying. These Pi clusters can

Yes, I know exactly why these annoying naggers are being annoying. I don't like it. And here I'm telling that maybe people should stop listening to annoying naggers and just dislike & close the tab, maybe block the channel to

What do I owe them? Nagging and soliciting subs and likes is fucking annoying. If you want me to like a video, make a good video and stop nagging. If I dislike those naggers enough, maybe Google's stupid artificial non-intelligence wi

It already is an echo chamber. Except that you have zero control over the content you see, so you're stuck in someone else's echo chamber. It can be really fucking frustrating, which is why I closed my main account after 8 years

Yep.. it's crazy how muricans seem to think everything has to be scheduled around taking and picking up kids to/from school. Around where I live, kids take themselves to school or use a bus. School can start any time between 8:00

This problem is there even if you have no swap at all, so I don't see different devices or zswap helping.

The problem is that we have no idea what you're talking about when you say C/C++. For you it seems to be C++, for someone else it might be both or it might be "one or the other but I don't know which." For yet som
