Pls don’t anthropomorphize the word calculator.

Sodium is basically ubiquitous and sodium batteries are much easier to produce, which is not to be neglected amid rising geopolitical tension. They are also a lot safer to handle. The technology has improved to be ready for the market in almost no time and is still improving rapidly.

They won’t be in your smartphone or wireless earbuds where energy density is key, but for large storage grids or maybe even cars, they might replace LiPo or LiFePO4.

Music has changed. Its more about single tracks with shorter playtime now because of the algorithms calculating the payout for the artist.

I like both very much for what they are and would confirm that Caddy is a lot easier for beginners. The only downside is that you have to rebuild the binary with caddyx for more functionality which can be limiting e.g. for people wanting to start with dns challenges for (wildcard) certificates.

At least Orca Slicer works fine for me in Wayland.

Screen sharing is a great example. I used to have issues with it, but since about a year I’m able to share my screen in the MS teams PWA in Firefox and even the Discord flatpak without a hassle.

Do you have some examples? Most things I (and others) do are in the category “showing a desktop”, multiple desktops with different resolution / scaling / refresh rate, maybe opening a virtual monitor using krfb.

Wayland has been a complete game changer for me regarding performance and reliability (as soon as it hit a certain stability lol).

It’s a tale as old as software development itself: Fuck around with your license, find out by getting replaced by a fork.

Although Redis came back and reversed the relicensing one year later lol:

Funny that this comes from a Windows dev.

There is obviously a lot to unpack here, most of it is just plain gibberish. The best option is, as always, to ask him directly.

Pro: Fresh white bread can be very delicious. It is soft and fluffy, and depending on the freshness even still warm, which are all really nice things to be associated with imho. It is also versatile, as it can be crafted to e.g. a list of delicious sandwiches. White bread can be interpreted as a clean slate, a starting point for a lot of great things to happen. The focus on the whiteness of the bread may be in remembrance to a time when paleness was a female beauty standard.

Contra: White bread is considered as bland, tasteless and boring by some, depending where in the world you live. White bread is the most consumed type of bread in the western world, possibly implying you are a little to mainstream, your personality is too adapted and not sophisticated enough for him. I have heard awful things about american white bread (e.g. has a lot of sugar in it), but a traditional german white bread on the other hand can be very delicious. It is not the healthiest choice of breads, but not a lot of wheat products are. If I’m not mistaken, it could also be a slur for people with a light skin tone.

I love how fast it is, but the PWA is missing some features like showing likes + dislikes + ratio. Maybe I just didn’t search enough tough.

The crosspost grouping feature is a godsend. I hope Clients like Interstellar are going to implement it.

Must surely suck to be the guy. He (unintentionally probably) created a safe space for people hating him. I guess contributions on the Lemmy Github or other fediverse projects like piefed are welcome and probably more efficient than trying to force one of the two lead developers out with a petition.

I’ve heard maintainers getting spammed with AI generated Issues and stuff. This is just a stupid meme from some weeks ago, trying to merge some Anime ASCII Art into the Kernal Panic log message, because the kernel should be more weeb-friendly.

You’re right, Linux Kernel development happens on an own cgit instance. Given how much Linus loves distraction, he’d be better off by not looking into Github at all.

Just called it the other day, it’s a reality TV show. That’s why they acquire all the media outlets, the viewer rates are insane.

You are right, but I highly doubt that he cares enough considering the quote I posted earlier. He probably also has a shitload of staff around him telling him what to do, whose life also depend on him complying.

Also, Musk bought Twitter to influence the outcome of elections, not for being a petty child that doesn’t want to be insulted online. Well, maybe, but that’s not the whole story here.

He wrote it in a book (or his writer lol), shortly before he got elected, about a year ago. Look for “Trump Zuckerberg jail threat”, I don’t know which source to cite here.

I mean, what is he supposed to do. The orange man threatened to put Zuckerberg in jail for the rest of his life if he doesn’t comply. I have not very much hope left for the upcoming testimonies regarding Steam, Twitch, Discord and Reddit.

Also e.g. the lobbying around ACPI breaking suspend to ram sometimes. Funny little Bill Gates quote on that:

One thing I find myself wondering about is whether we shouldn’t try and make the “ACPI” extensions somehow Windows specific. It seems unfortunate if we do this work and get our partners to do the work and the result is that Linux works great without having to do the work. Maybe there is no way to avoid this problem but it does bother me. Maybe we could define the APIs so that they work well with NT and not the others even if they are open. Or maybe we could patent something related to this.

That was a great read. Let’s hope the author is right with most of it, especially the part where they predict an upcoming focus on teaching media/information literacy as a tool of societal resilience.

Give them some time too thoroughly fuck up Github, sorry i meant M$ CoreAI.
