Turn off PICT-RS.

Aka PATA or IDE hard disks. Basically consumer grade kit.

The statement that the kernel would only ever handle IDE was basically a confession that this would never be a product suitable for enterprise or professional use where SCSI was the typical interface.

Rule for my team is I don’t care where you are as long as shit gets done and I can find you if I need you.

In addition to the reasons already mentioned, Apple has a requirement that applications have a novel component. While it's often questionable as to what is considered "novel" Weather applications get contrasted against the built-in weather app. If the app simply duplicates the functionality it will be rejected.

The Intel Chipset Device Software installs the Windows* INF files. An INF is a text file that provides the operating system with information about a piece of hardware on the system. That information is primarily the product name for the piece of hardware. This allows the operating system to show the correct name for that piece of hardware in Device Manager.

Typically the download from your manufacturer's website is sufficient as it has the information for the hardware relevant to your system. Newer versions from other sources (like Intel) will cover newer hardware that probably doesn't exist in your system.

You're missing the forest through the trees if your take is that anyone is directly comparing the severity of these two issues. The point is that any instance owner that doesn't have the proper framework in place to mount a legal argument or defense is in a highly vulnerable position regardless of the content.

Being in the right doesn't matter if you can't afford the price tag associated with proving it. Just responding to a subpoena or a lawsuit has a non-zero cost associated with it.

More applicable to comments than posts... Used as "I don't like this" stifles conversation. For example, the comment that we're replying to has been downvoted two to one. It's a legitimate comment that is worthy of conversation but that won't happen because downvoting is being used as a "I don't like this" button. It inevitably creates an echo chamber.

Don’t have a solution for everything but did want to mention that brew is as viable for Linux as it is for MacOS, except for casks. I tend to use an Ubuntu or Debian base layer and then use brew to pull in all the packages that I know I will always want later and more diverse options than what’s available in the distro, e.g. ffmpeg, Python.

Binary Sunset. Luke staring pensively out into the distance as he considers his place in the universe and where it may or may not go. I’d be staggered to find anyone who can’t relate to that.

A key factor is LINUX has been available for ARM since nearly "the beginning". Unlike Windows, which was basically Intel only for well over a decade, LINUX has had strong support for multiple architectures throughout its lifecycle. As a result, software that grew up within that ecosystem tended to be more agnostic in design which helps porting efforts.

Relative to what? Relative to LINUX on Intel? Relative to Windows on ARM?

BC titles remain available through the current store.

There's plenty of us here but we're not as noticeable. We're old enough that we've learned to stop incessantly complaining about shit that doesn't matter yet not so old that all we do is incessantly complain about shit that doesn't matter.

Circle of life.

I'm an older X. Another ten years and I'll be on my porch yelling "get off my lawn" and "not in my backyard", carrying on the tradition laid out by my forefathers.

True dat. I've been running it about seven weeks and am pulling about 700 communities. Most have near zero traffic but the high volume ones do add up.

By design, yes, but there's a number of things that can go wrong that can cause the remote instances to not receive (or comply with) the instruction to do so.

I use Lemmy Community Seeder. Every four hours it checks the top posts on instances you specifies and automatically subscribes you to communities that appear there but you aren't already subscribed to. You can tweak it to ignore specific communities or instances.

Only because I can read the whole thing significantly faster than Reddit.

Everybody is virtuous and brave when it's not their ass on the line.

As an administrator of many different public-facing services I'm always going to defend other admins right to moderate their services in whatever manner makes them comfortable, even if I don't agree with their decision.
