  • How long until we get self-insert AI porn?

  • It flies, so I don't get the joke. I'm an embedded developer BTW.

  • Some marketing survey shown that insignificant amount of users would use desktop mode, so they bought cheaper USB electronics for their next phone, that's all. Never mind that Samsung adverises DeX so Galaxy users ar least know there is a desktop mode in their phone.

  • Nope, Linux kernel used in that tech demo is for RISC-V architecture

  • Robotized armies are already here, and they look nothing like steel skeleton humanoid Terminators, they are more like cheapest four propeller drones with an anti-tank mine strapped with zip ties, naked wires with no cover, because it's single use.

  • Hey don't bash Excel, it can run Linux too, although heavily stripped Risc-V version.

  • Yes, Android is a (extremely heavily forked) Linux distribution.

    Well ackshually Android kernel nowadays is built from an upstream unmolested Linux kernel sources, straight from Torvalds' git repository.

    And the rest is just the init system, which is not systemd so it's better by definition even though it's written in Java, and a display server written in Java, because there was no Wayland when Android development started.

  • ed is outdated technology. I recommend sed, I am using it each day to edit my files. Did you know that sed has it's own scripting language, based on regular expressions? I can totally parse a .csv file using sed script, and this will take me less than a hour.

  • We can control AI just fine. We cannot control corporations, who use sloppy AI for important decisions. A few court cases for unfair hiring practices will solve the problem rather quickly, it won't be AI who will get fined, it will be CEO.

  • Yeah, you could probably achieve 15% cooling efficiency with regular old nitrogen or methane instead of fluorocarbons.

  • Not shown: a cubic meter of obscure developer boards and gadgets that hardware manufacturers randomly send to Torvalds to integrate into Linux.

    Also his RAM is ECC.

  • std::vector<bool> fits eight booleans into one byte.

  • Wow, I'll try that tomorrow

    Edit: I've tried butter coffee twice, and it's actually decent.

  • Switch to KaiOS now!

  • Silt did not magically disappear because your dam is spherical, and there is a lot of it on the sea floor. They need to install some kind of filtering system anyway.

    Also, the lifetime of a sphere is estimated to be 60 years, while the traditional dam is engineered for 100+ years of service.

    The main advantage is that the sea floor is unused and unregulated like the dry land , but then you could as well build an actual scuba diving underwater base with a hydro dam instead of a sphere, it will also be easier to clean and repair, but I guess that would be too much evil moustache twirling to get funded.

  • Yup, because they are annoying, not because they do not work.

    Pretty much every news site asks you to enable browser notifications.

  • Patreon app is literally their website. What does it do that the website does not? Notifications? Offline images? All of these can be done in your mobile browser.

  • If you want deskktop version of Firefox or Chromium on your phone, you can get them using Termux. But yeah they will be slow.

  • TIL I'm a script
