I love this, especially the criticism of the FSF.
For coms, Zulip seems OK. I would really like Matrix to take off, but I honestly don’t really like any of the clients.

Maybe.
Linux won because it worked. Hurd was stuck in research and development hell. They never were able to catch up.
However, Linus’s kernel was more elaborate than GNU Hurd, so it was incorporated.
Quite the opposite.
GNU Hurd was a microkernel, using lots of cutting edge research, and necessitating a lot of additional complexity in userspace. This complexity also made it very difficult to get good performance.
Linux, on the other hand, was just a bog standard Unix monolithic kernel. Once they got a libc working on it, most existing Unix userspace, including the GNU userspace, was easy to port.
Linux won because it was simple, not elaborate.
They can’t even be punished. robots.txt
is just a convention, not a regulation. It’s totally not enforceable.
The only legal framework we have is copyright law. Those who oppose this behavior will have to demonstrate copyright violation, and that may be difficult to do since the law hasn’t caught up.

What’s wrong with AC if it’s powered by renewable electricity?
Zsh
No plugin manager. Zsh has a builtin plugin system (autoload
) and ships with most things you want (like Git integration).
My config: http://github.com/cbarrick/dotfiles
Exactly.
My take is that the issue isn’t with tmpfiles.d, but rather the decision to use it for creating home directories.

Apple Security Bounty awards may not be paid to you if you are in any U.S. embargoed countries or on the U.S. Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals, the U.S. Department of Commerce Denied Person’s List or Entity List, or any other restricted party lists.
Kaspersky can whine all they want. Russia is embargoed. They’re not getting their money.
Kaspersky is a good company doing good work in the cyber security space. Unfortunately, because of the embargo, they may have to turn to the black market to sell future exploits. Or maybe not; I’m not totally sure what kind of ethical standards they have.
Nvidia is in a great spot for the AI bubble.
It drives up prices now, but when the bubble eventually burst, data centers are still going to need accelerators for more viable compute tasks.
Absolutely the most robust business in the bubble.
There are still issues with WearOS, but I think some of that is hardware. Last I heard, Qualcomm’s wearable SoCs were trash, but Samsung is in a good position since they have both the SoC fab and make the watch itself.
Many industries are shifting to a model where Android is the de facto OS for consumer-facing interactions. It’s not well optimized outside of phones yet, but it is rapidly improving. Many cars run Android now, for example.
I’m moderately optimistic about the next generation of WearOS devices.
It’s not like the Dem base will switch their votes to Trump.
At this point, now that the nominees are decided, the political game is to attract the swing vote, which is mostly “tough on crime,” anti-imigration, and anti-taxation (as it applies to them directly).
Even though none of these policies are actually good for those in the middle.
Unfortunately, I think it’s been demonstrated that OpenAI will feed your data into their training pipeline whether you like it or not. They did this with YouTube. And they demonstrated this with Scarlett Johanson. (Even if they used a voice actor instead of actually scraping voice clips of her, it’s still unethical.)
So we knew they’d just scrape these articles anyway. This way, at least the publications get paid.
Mostly I use custom launchers because I don’t like the Google News feed
What’s wild to me is that back in the Google Now era, I was so excited to root so that I could install the extension for Nova to add Google Now.
But these days, the Google “Discovery” feed is trash compared to what Google Now once was.
Fine tuning a general TTS model on a specific custom voice doesn’t require as much data as you think it does.
The hard part is building the foundational model that can be easily fine tuned. And OpenAI has already done that.
Yeah, I know what a hydrogen fuel cell is.
What I’m saying is that the cost to develop hydrogen infrastructure, the complexity of it’s distribution, the risk due to its high volatility, and the uncertainty of a relatively underdeveloped technology all seem to be losing to batteries, which are very mature tech and are already in the supply chain and for which we already have a well developed electricity distribution grid.
I just don’t see what investing in fuel cells will do other than slow the adoption of zero emission vehicles by another decade.
What are the benefits of fuel cells?
Do they outweigh the benefits of batteries?
I’m confused. Why are we talking about Tesla?
For Zulip, I’ve only used it on the web. Apparently they have iOS, Android, Desktop, and Terminal clients.
For Matrix, there are many clients on all platforms, but none have ever stood out to me. Element is the official client, and it’s… fine I guess.
