You aren’t supposed to do serious work over these things. They should be a last resort imo.

Do you have a source for that claim?

I have read somewhere that some text can be compressed incredibly efficiently in some AI models. The issue being that the compressed data is worthless without the model and power to recover it.

The cheapest printer is the one you already own.

I had a poodle mix and the nice thing is they don’t shed their fur on their own. Which also helps with allergies.

This doesn’t feel like something that should happen. Like at all. I don’t want experience repairing stuff. I want stuff not breaking. I know mos tpeople here treat a OS like a hobby, but for most people its a tool.

Thats true, but that sadly won’t help against a state forcing a company to put these things into the silicon. Not saying they do rn, but its a real possibility.

I mean can’t they just audit a version that doesn’t have a backdoor/snoops. Verifying against silicon is probably very hard.

How do you want to verify a RISC core not doing something funny?

Hear me out. There is this amazing concept of not doing something you don’t like. Yeah most people don’t know this, but you can indeed just not play games you don’t like.

I see the appeal for the package manager for a lot of things, but space got so incredibly cheap and fast that duplication is way less of a deal than the effort to make stuff work the traditional way. But im not a real linux user. I don’t like tinkering, I want to download something and it works. And the amazing thing is we can have both. If people like spending time to package something be my guest.

The funniest interaction I had recently. I downloaded a program that isn’t in my package manager or had any sort of flatpack/appimage so I downloaded it as a deb and it didn’t run because of some dependency. So I could clone the git and build it from source which might have worked, but I was too lazy to. So I just downloaded the windows exe and ran it through wine, which worked flawlessly.

Still probably piled there to stop some kind of degradation.

But I like my applications years out of date and I think its good that every distro has to spend manhours on packaging it individually.

Im using a ultimate Bluetooth on my deck without issue. Its getting detected as a switch pro controller.

Also its 40 per hour per user

I had a problem with a Intel HD4000 on arch.

What?

When I look at these patents all of them seem to be patenting others inventions from years ago. So I hope prior art wins.

I mean I had arch break grub with a update, which would really suck for a computer beginner. And I had a OpenWRT router boot loop after a update. On my windows machine the only updates that led to a boot problem were Nvidia ones.
