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

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, the 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.

The mic being active or not doesn’t affect her hearing. If he interrupts her she’d still hear it, only the TV audience wouldn’t, so she’d seem flustered.

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.

What’s up with the abuse of the word open lately. I had a look at that project to see how they were doing the conversion, but I couldn’t find it. But I found this:

Short answer, yes! OpenScanCloud (OSC) is and will stay closed source…

Your data will be transferred through Dropbox and stored/processed on my local servers. I will use those image sets and resulting 3d models for further research, but none of your data will be published without your explicit consent!

I feel like I’d rather use Autodesk at that point. At least I know what I’m dealing with right out of the gate.

But check that it has all the features you need because it lags behind gitea in some aspects (like ci).

At least it’s symmetrical so it won’t rock, unlike every other phone out there now.

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

I mean I learned it in a few days and found it very intuitive as well. Far more intuitive than I found fusion when I tried that years later. Inventor and onshape also feel more pleasant to use.

The issue seems to be that the fusion interface is very non-standard when compared to other cad suites, so people that get used to it first find everything else unintuitive.

I live in a qwertz ISO layout country, but I use qwerty ANSI layout keyboards because I find that text editing is better with them. Makes finding a laptop pretty hard though.

Podman quadlets have been a blessing. They basically let you manage containers as if they were simple services. You just plop a container unit file in /etc/containers/systemd/, daemon-reload and presto, you’ve got a service that other containers or services can depend on.

I’ve been in love with the concept of ansible since I discovered it almost a decade ago, but I still hate how verbose it is, and how cumbersome the yaml based DSL is. You can have a role that basically does the job of 3 lines of bash and it’ll need 3 yaml files in 4 directories.

About 3 years ago I wrote a big ansible playbook that would fully configure my home server, desktop and laptop from a minimal arch install. Then I used said playbook for my laptop and server.

I just got a new laptop and went to look at the playbook but realised it probably needs to be updated in a few places. I got feelings of dread thinking about reading all that yaml and updating it.

So instead I’m just gonna rewrite everything in simple python with a few helper functions. The few roles I rewrote are already so much cleaner and shorter. Should be way faster and more user friendly and maintainable.

I’ll keep ansible for actual deployments.

Yay, fan club.

I was just introducing someone to Rodney last night because some actor in a show we saw looked a bit like him. Then I wake up and see this here. Life sure has funny coincidences sometimes.

It’s not over… It’s joever!

Shame he didn’t have a scandal on that stage. They would have stopped taking about it within the day.
