Who cares what people know about? PC is still an open platform for you to boot alternative software.
Most people don’t know how to even “acquire” software without the DRM. It’s not really anyone’s job to spread news and tell people to go learn.
If they get interested and care that much to preserve what they have, they can google and learn. Many have learnt about Linux due to the recent PS5 jailbreak for instance.
Due to the memory and storage crisis, you actually cannot buy the $500 mac mini anymore. It starts at $799
They don’t because there is no reason to currently. If this was added then they would have a reason to and do it.
YouTube used to be separate domains for ads and then it got merged together so that you can’t block the ads network wide without blocking YouTube videos.
I agree about Rust gaining ground but using the argument that it got 10% faster due to Rust is not really that useful.
If they rewrote it in C++ again, they would have most likely got the same result because they got a chance to fix a design that might not have been most optimal.
What about things it wasn’t trained on?
For instance I’ve written a few custom languages to learn how to write a VM and the lexer/parser/compiler/etc. that it had never seen before and then just gave it the syntax which is different than what it had ever seen before. Simply due to the fact I made it and it had never been trained on it.
After giving it my documentation, it was able to write the language just like a language that it had been trained on. I’ve also seen this behavior at work where there are weird quirks to do things and definitely not standard and it can handle it.
Funny this comes out today. I was just about to start to write one in rust. It's amazing having opencode slowly leak memory and end up becoming 6gbs on a large project and then get slower and slower.
Will check this out! Seems cool!
I hate that I can’t write em dashes freely anymore without people accusing the writing of being AI generated.
Even though they are perfect for usage in writing down thoughts and notes.
Look up the BC-250, it is the PS5 but was created for mining. You can get these very cheap on eBay.
The developers are busy ramming AI into it by management. This is probably never going to get looked into.
From this post, I just got mine setup this morning. I already enjoy going through my 18 accounts every 2 weeks on pay day (yes, every credit card is the highest for the category of spend). For me, it seems like it would be just one extra step for me to get the data every 2 weeks.
But for most, I understand that they aren’t enjoying what I am doing every couple of weeks. I was using YNAB before but due to how many cards I had something got messed up in the importer all the time. Sometimes my transactions would duplicate or even get triplicated and then I would decline one of them only for it to pop up again a few days later. This lead to a very messed up and not accurate tracking. For me I was just fighting this thing every single day.
This is probably user error but after wiping it 3 times and starting over and over I just gave up and went back to mentally keeping track which worked but I needed something better.
You can’t prevent wall hacks with only server side anti cheat. The client needs that data locally before the enemy is rendered on screen.
As mentioned in another comment, you can’t do this on the server without expensive checks for every single player that is always checking line of sight, because it’s not just your session running on a single server but multiple sessions.
And let’s say you did this, now you have a latency problem because most modern games to make them feel fluid has client side prediction with server reconciliation. This is what makes your modern games feel more responsive, if you put a constant server check there you have lost this.
No matter what people say online, it isn’t just move all of it to the server, there is data the client needs to know and can’t be spoonfed by the server.
It doesn’t have to be 100%. The point is to make it inconvenient. The majority of people will not do it if it is inconvenient.
Thats the point to many things in life that you just make it more difficult and most people won’t be bothered to attempt to circumvent whatever it is.
There will still be circumventers but it is will be less than if you just said fuck it.
Why would weather really be an issue? The city in the article has people cycling in the winter in the snow and also during the rain.
Realistically once you get fitter and fitter from riding the bicycle, your commute times will drop and if you’re in a city like the article, your trips aren’t even very far anyway. If anything driving is more annoying.
Right now in this environment, they look reasonable. Not that they are
Not to worry, you soon won’t be able to do that in the next version
That is why you check your results. If you know what the end outcome should be. Doesn’t matter if it hallucinates. If it does, it probably already got you 90% of the work done which is less work that you have to do now to finish it.
How would GPL change the outcome?
A lot of people say that it can prevent these situations but from working for large enterprises, a lot of the offerings that are created literally don’t even change the code. Thus they have nothing to contribute and have no obligation to release any source code.
GPL also does not prevent the corporation from building software in front of whatever GPL service it is. Kind of like the Linux kernel, why bother changing the kernel when you can build software in front of it and not change anything and thus have nothing to release.
Ah yes, writing my notes down in css and html. My favorite!
Seriously though, every time some new hotness comes along, you don’t really have to use it or even waste your time looking at it. Markdown will likely be here after all of its derivatives are long gone.
Just like other companies, home users do not make much money compared to enterprises. No home user will pay $10,000 annually for example and think nothing of it.
Enterprises is where the money is, that is also why a company like Cisco do not make consumer devices
You mean the legendary “i”. There is no n.
But then you have to deal with this annoying “feature” of it deleting your data when it feels like it. Can’t tell you how much work I’ve lost to this bug.
I’ve just switched to using hurl. Can’t be bothered with any of this nonsense with all these GUI programs
Point still stands, it is clearly not as much of a big deal as people make it out to be. Especially in respect to that coworker
Does your credit really matter after you have a car, house and everything you want? If you default and pay collections, it drops off your credit in 7 years… just in time to buy a new car that would need credit.
If you really need to declare bankruptcy, then that also drops off in 7 years. I knew a coworker that amassed 100k in credit card debt, declared bankruptcy and then in 2 years he had credit cards again from the SAME creditors. Even go a car loan and mortgage shortly after that.
Linux and Windows are on the same machine. I can’t rip out my motherboard’s adaptor to connect it to my Macs
True, but I can’t feasibly rip out my wireless adaptor on my motherboard and connect it to my Mac.
Linux was running on the same hardware that windows was because I wanted to utilize my 4090 for some machine learning projects, so yes, there was an apples to apples comparison
For me, it never went away. I had an Xbox One S controller before with the same issue. Bought the Xbox Series controller last year for Elden Ring, same issue on Windows. Gave up, and just got a longer USB C cable.
I have, it’s on the latest firmware from the Xbox app. Still have these issues, the Xbox controller is just the biggest thing, my Sony headphones also have issues with Windows.
All of my coworkers have issues with anything regarding Bluetooth on Windows too
A few of friends also have this experience with the controller. Nobody bothers to say anything though and they all told me that I’d just be better off plugging it in. Which is what they do and what I ended up doing
I could do that, but I’m using the built in Bluetooth on my desktop. Honestly, I’m just annoyed with Bluetooth and windows. Everything else not based on Windows work completely fine, from macOS to my multiple linux desktops
I’ve had a ton issues on Windows with Bluetooth and I know it’s not the hardware because on Linux it works fine.
My Xbox Series controller is the biggest issue. For instance will not automatically reconnect when I pair it the first time and then disconnect. On the next turn on of the controller, it never finds the PC and connects. Windows then has no push for me to press to connect.
I have to delete the controller and then repair it each time. Sometimes I can’t even delete it and have to go into RegEdit and delete it. The delete button just does nothing sometimes in that menu
