GrapheneOS or other custom ROMs don't solve the actual problem that you can't just buy a smartphone and install any operating system like you can with an actual computer, despite t…

And it's not just desktop _linux_ that's not allowed, but any desktop operating system, since this only works with "smartphones" not general-purpose computers. (and of course even …

I've read that in the case of Paks a retrofit doesn't make sense because the entire thing is so old and needs to be rebuilt anyway. However, hopefully, they change the plans for (s…

That second quote is truly a sentence of all time. It is not possible to use this [computer payment system] on a computer...

This is a very big oversight in that EU law. Allowing third-party "app stores" is completely useless when all apps must be approved by the operating system company. It's also being…

The same thing happened to me in school (during a test...), except I tried to type & on a hungarian keyboard, which is of course also altgr+c.

I would be fine with this if it meant CPUs became slightly cheaper, but we know that's not going to happen. And there's been talk that now the so-called "AI companies" will start u…

Very weird that this is coming from Google, given that they made their phone platform specifically to not let you install your own operating system. And now, they're making it ille…

They're literally doing the opposite, right now you can't install a custom operating system, but in the near future you won't be able to install custom apps either: https://keepand…

I hate the missing home/end/pgup/pgdn keys more (which is the case on basically all laptops, and you obviously can't just buy a different keyboard for a laptop).

Pretty sure a power supply that just puts out 12V on USB-C without any negotiation is not in spec and should be illegal. As the article mentioned, it would damage anything that was…

I knew what video that was going to be before I clicked it. I highly recommend watching the whole series, including more cursed OSs created because windows booted slowly (?): https…

Got one too for the same product, except the entire email is different (even the unsubscribe method!). They must be hallucinating a seperate email for everyone.

They tend to do that in the morning (UTC) for some reason.

There is also another Xbox Copilot missing (though it has been renamed, probably due it not being an "AI"): https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/account-profile/accessib...

> It’s like corporations are angry that they need to go through us to get our money. This is why I think the "you're the product" saying is wrong. You're just some annoyance to man…

It's actually two templates that are being copied by different states: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1rmhxk1/i_pulled_the...

I would love to see devices with a non-destroyed (corners cut off, random hole for the front camera) screen.

I read somewhere that even for the "Copilot" things that supposedly run locally, windows needs to send a request to microsoft to confirm if your input is allowed by their rules.

> Turns out careless, unethical vibecoders aren't very competent. Well they are scraping web pages from a git forge, where they could just, you know, clone the repo(s) instead.

Note that the 64-bit version is not open source. KolibriOS ( https://kolibrios.org/en ) is an active fork of the open source 32-bit version.

Authoritarian governments (that is, what unfortunately all governments want to be) also love this, since if a few big companies control all computing, they can regulate them to con…

ISPs are the worst. Currently I use Telekom's 5G for my home internet connection in Hungary as Telekom is the only company who has a cable in my street, but they refused to sell me…

I think you (or the site decided to) ran it through the html5 validator?

Maybe I'm missing something, but this seems to be an issue report claiming to be a PR? Where's the patch? Edit: there's actually a PR, but this is one of those repos where for some…
