Yeah, it seems the sensor costs as much as a decent used camera.

Tree fell on his house.

Hyperconvergence or hypervisor.

You realise that if that were to be “fixed”, you wouldn’t end up paying the low price, Brazil would end up paying the high price? One they can’t afford because they make as much in a month as you do in a week, or worse.

I remember people being upset by the ribbon back when office 2007 was released. Their complaints made sense until I sat down and used it. Found it to be a great improvement. I switched my libre office to the ribbon layout as soon as they added it. Because I don’t use it often, it’s great for finding stuff compared to looking through the menus.

The nice thing about the LO implementation is also that they added a couple of varieties of the design, like the compact one which pushes things closer together so it’s not distracting.

Yeah it’s the equivalent of finding two dollars on the ground and getting excited because at this rate you’ll be a billionaire soon enough. There’s less than 2g of plastic in an SD card - the buttons on your shirt probably weigh more.

Games are already horifically inefficient

That’s so far from the truth, it hurts me to read it. Games are one of the most optimised programs you can run on your computer. Just think about it, it’s a application rendering an entire imaginary world every dozen milliseconds. Compare it to anything else you run, like say slack or teams, which makes your CPU sweat just to notify you about a new message.

With 30% ownership it could have been at the forefront of generative AI, which OpenAI released to the world in 2022.

Do they think openai invented the concept of generative ai, because that’s what their statement implies?

It’s not that uncharacteristic. Mono is a fully open source project they didn’t create, didn’t really work on, and one they can’t extract any value from. So this is basically a gesture that doesn’t cost them anything, but at the same time it doesn’t do much except generate a headline.

Khtml was licensed as LGPL.

At least it’s symmetrical so it won’t rock, unlike every other phone out there now, including the one I’m typing on.

You say that as if solving grid storage wasn’t one of the most important problems humanity faces right now.

When Algeria is too woke for you, you should really reconsider things.

I guess it’s too much to ask the richest company on the planet to keep a list of a few accounts indefinitely. I’m sure that database is a whole gigabyte sized and maintaining it requires a whole person to check in on it once in a while. Obviously they can only afford that level of effort for a year or two. And we’re only taking about removing access from millions of people to something they paid good money for, and also doing it because. Yeah, I’m with you on this one, totally not their fault.

RaspberryBye.

Careful using the word efficiency there, as it has a different meaning when talking about solar panels - it indicates how much energy the panel can extract from the light hitting it. The best modern panels you can buy are below 25% efficient, and since these are from the 90s they were probably about half that when new.

For me the year of the Linux desktop was 2014 - it’s when I changed my desktop to Linux after using it on my laptop for a year. All the hardware on that machine has been replaced, but it’s still running the same install from back then.

Well I believe if someone is benefiting from a common good, they should contribute to that good, but maybe I’m not Laissez-faire enough for this world, or “leftymemes”.

I mean that makes sense at least, because otherwise the adjacent neighbours will be having to pay more as they’re still heating their apparent. You do have to make some sacrifices when living in a block, that’s one of them.

As an outsider it’s really annoying when someone just doesn’t understand the reality they find themselves in.

A third party isn’t in the cards, it never is, but it especially isn’t right now. The only way to get a third party elected is to change your voting system, but that’s a process that takes years, decades even. It’s really not as easy as wasting a vote with a third party, it takes a lot more effort. And the only way to start or continue that process right now is to vote Biden because if Trump wins you might not even get another election to vote in.

And Trump has a good chance of winning because the republicans aren’t having such discussions. They know what to do, and come election day they’ll all march in and do their job, like they do every time. Remember that he only won last time because people like you felt icky about voting for Clinton.

If you allow me a moment of catharsis, I’ll just add that if you Americans once again subject the world to more Trump insanity, I really hope you get to feel the worst of it.
