You looked into flatpaks?

They work using namespaces and cgroups like containers, but have a much more unified system than podman/docker

I mean I imagine an LLM is able to generate more entropy from the sheer computing power put into it, but I agree traditional digital stenography methods are MUCH more cost/power efficient than an LLM.

(Not even to mention the amount of cyclic redundancy youd probably need just to get a message across)

Depending on the environment I suppose texr-based could be beneficial vs (relatively) large media files

I could honestly see this as one of the few legit uses for LLMs.

Throw some data ino it and make some "natural text" to obfuscate it.

Glad they finally managed to implement a library thats existed (at least) since 2020.

Only difference I see is that previous attempts didnt have googles infinite budget to waste the electricity required to get there.

Source: 🤷‍♂️ trust me bro

Dunno what else to tell ya cause they are moving to open source, but hey googles free if you want to find out for yourself

4% of US alone is 12 million people.

If even 25% of them decide hardware purchases based on driver support, 3 million sales isn't ignorable.

(The number of PCs sold globally per year is similarly 300,000,000, so even then theyd lose out on 12 million potential sales YEARLY)

The market is also pretty shit post-covid, so I'm sure every hardware company is dying for a way to boost sales metrics.

With the linux server market share and recent ai boom, theyd have to be more than just blind deaf and dumb to not release linux drivers.

Maybe this was true back in like the early 2000's?

Jesus Christ, and we consider ourselves above 'slave labour' when most of those people are probably just there to get a meal. Worst part is all these cuts are just to help Amazon's bottom line.

Ive only ever worked with smaller boats or electrical rigs pulled out of larger freighters, from that view alone it blows my mind half those boats are even afloat.

I would be suprised if anything past some 1970's DC sensors to be honest.

The ships are built by capitalists, theyre about as cheap as ships get

Yeah, it was a bit of a growing pain tradeoff to accommodate high performance enterprise clusters, but kinda only sucks for the small user environment.

Still pretty impressive the same software can serve both those markets though.

Nextcloud doesnt really like when you do this, it stores file locations in its database and hand manages them.

Could work for a local instance though if you set up a cron job to rescan the dir every night or so

Engineers love moving parts, known for their reliability and vigor

I hear this a lot but in production I still see xp/win 7 era PC's all the time due to comparability issues (half the time still online too :/ )

Maybe its just absurd support for big spenders like the US military?

Seems like the small companies are mostly getting burned by gambling on MS

I thought the same, looks like AMD is trying to introduce something to limit that access (ie allow potentially compromised hosts run trusted VMs).

Probably to make VPS' more attractive to security focused divisions.

Pretty sure it means the equivalent of root on baremetal (ie ring 0 in a vm is still safe).

Pretty sure on top of that anyone with that access can essentially rewrite your CPU's brain, allowing ring 0 access even after (for example) selling the CPU.

Really thought the prequels did that.

Think anything smart JJ did was just from the next guy over's test he was copying.

Any reason you dont just use bcachefs?

Supports various write-cache configurations, and seperate forgrouns/background replications (a la raid 1).

I think its even more stable than raid because it'll auto-balance when a disk fails, but I'm not as certain in that

Nix package manager can be installed on (almost) any distro, I'm running it in an android termux right now for example. Side note if you want a fun project for an old phone you could probably run radarr this way, I'm using it for Garage s3 storage.

Without diving into the juicy details too much, the command does temporarily install it - in a way that its essentially free to reinstall anytime. For permanent setups you just have to add it to a text file, that could use a bit of a face life to be honest. Though comparitevly this would be trivial to implement vs the meat of the package manager itself

I'll admit Linux users are more allergic to GUI's than they need to be, but if snowflakeOS becomes more mature then I'd consider an app store much more intuitive and secure than arbitrary full system access.

Cause realistically we could start throwing ads in the system to really make windows users feel at home, but (like the mess that is windows dependencies) tradition can be a weakness more than a strength.
