Ok guys, who games on an IoT version of Ubuntu?

Jump

  • Probably its part of Flatpak?

    • Youtube has fully blocked Invidious

    Jump

  • TOR exit node IP addresses are well-known. If YouTube wants to, they can just block the TOR network.

    • Firefox will consider a Rust implementation of JPEG-XL (with Google's help)

    Jump

  • The same amount of JXL gives you more image than JPEG? Also, it supports ridiculous resolutions (terapixel).

    • Firefox will consider a Rust implementation of JPEG-XL (with Google's help)

    Jump

  • I took my existing JPEG file, compressed it using JXL, 15% smaller.

    Then I decompressed it again into JPEG. The file was bit-for-bit identical to the original file (same hash). Blew my mind!

    Directly using JXL is even better of course.

    • NASA's solar sail successfully spreads its wings in space

    Jump

  • You can check heavens above (adjust your location) to check when it will be visible for you.

    Wait a second, it’s going to pass over my house in 5 minutes!

    Edit: Shit, clouds!

    Edit2: I was able to see it through a few gaps in the cloud cover!

    • 20 new CSS viewport units

    • TUXEDO on ARM is coming - TUXEDO Computers

    Jump

  • Without UEFI, the boot process is different for each device, requires a custom boot loader, or at least explicit support by the operating system. Is your laptop going to be supported by the distribution you want to use? What about in 5 or 10 years? With UEFI, the boot process is standardized, so it should just work.

    • Starship survives reentry during fourth test flight

    Jump

  • That was some Columbia-level damage that Starship experienced during reentry, and yet it successfully retained control authority, completed a soft landing, and everything was live streamed. Amazing!

    The booster seems to be almost ready for the first catch attempt (depending on the accuracy of the landing).

    I wonder to what extent they can retrofit Ship 30 to reinforce the hinge of the flaps, and how long that is going to take? On the other hand, the ship did survive, so maybe they will just repeat the launch without any major fixes, and try a few different things? (Deorbit burn, maybe even suborbital test-mass deployment, or more aggressive tests of the heat shield?)

    The next-generation Starship design has less exposed flaps with reinforced hinges already. But is it already in production?

    • only as in free beer

    Jump

  • Are you sure that it cannot be updated? The GitHub readme sounds like updating Tiny11 Core is impossible (and it also lacks Windows Defender), implying that Tiny 11 can in fact be updated.

    • Name & shame. :)
