These cheap Windows tablets with Atom come de facto with a physical keyboard. Or… are these also something gone along netbooks?

Too small screen!

Too expensive!

I already have a 14". It’s too big for a portable device I would carry exactly everywhere. I use it as me home PC, till I get a real new one, as well as portable computer during travels.

The thing is, a 14" laptop cannot be used in bus, train, waiting room, etc. Sometimes a thought or idea comes and I have to write it. Sometimes I have to write down the stuff other people talk about.

Thank you for your suggestion. I am a developer there and I can tell them about this. However, they will whitelist your username not your IP. So you can email them.

You can email Loki or other admins to unblock you. I also use a proxy through me VPS in SE to connect to the server. Your land is a building survival server.

The fun is in CTF which is FPS-like :))

Thank you! Noted!

As a member of the community, I won’t have a problem if the interactions with LLMs are only with open source ones, and the conversation is available as open data to all, without restrictions. The same which CommonVoice does for Voice.

Data matters so much that the companies keep it to themselves. And I absolutely don’t want the data to be used for training models which enslave the developers and the people of this planet. The least is that data should be open to all, so the FOSS community would have a chance to use the data to contribute back to FOSS.

Note that it doesn’t matter if the model is open source. For Machine Learning the data matters as much as the code does, if not more. And in this case, data matters much much more. The code is widely available and can also get researched independently.

Sorry I’m not a professional advertiser :))))

In your blog you can write tutorials. Or if you had trouble getting something done, you can write how did you do it. They will be good useful notes for other people, possibly including your future self :)

What’s the problem with addiction? An addiction is bad if it harms you. I am addicted to espresso, me family, me little cousins, me dear close friend, the spaghetti me mother makes and so on.

Sometimes they close it to prevent attacks. You can email server admins to ask for an account if the server is in lockdown.

In general if you want to be a good writer, you need to be a good reader first :)

Writing is a good ability you could have so you would be a more valuable person, and also create value. Also writing is a way to express yourself, like in your blog.

Like many other things, you get good by practice. If you enjoy doing it, then just go read and write. Ask for feedback. You’ll get better and better slowly :)

Also may the Source be with you :D

In person groups depend on where you are. But if there isn’t a group where you live, you can start one yourself! That’s the case in me city. We are starting a group ourselves for the city.

Ello Ello.

Before anything else, I want to make it clear that choice of distro is much personal. Like choice of editor, desktop environment, color and so on.

I am a software developer, a game developer, and also an AI researcher. And I do need low level access to the machine. Not just because I would need to but also because I want to learn.

For me Debian Testing didn’t work out very well. I had it for Desktop usage. And most of the time, I wanted a newer version of the kernel or the software. On Debian the packages were either too new and unstable or too old. I then moved to Arch Linux which didn’t work out either. The changes were way fast there. So now I’m on Alpine.

There are other reasons I have chosen Alpine over Debian and Arch. One thing is systemd. Tho many people are fine with systemd, it didn’t work out well for me. And as I want to learn about low level stuff on the OS, down to the kernel, Alpine is simpler.

Would you still say that when you are in game and enemy team members crowdfund 1200 points on you while average kill score is 10? xD

I always have said. Open Source shouldn’t mean free labor. I personally develop open source software and get paid. And I am really against advocating that because the project is open source, the maintainer is not supposed to get paid and do it in their free time, voluntarily, and as a hobby.

Meanwhile players discuss this…

I’m not sure if by “materials” they also meant shotguns…

Even without vibe coding, writing an app from scratch has always been the easier/easiest part. The hard part is maintaining the app and keeping it alive over the years.

Here’s a chance I’ve got to rethink about copyleft.
