The ability to interface with your car is fundamentally at odds with the regulatory momentum that's going towards encrypted everything. Take a look what the automotive risc-v peopl…

Because it's the equivalent to running a private irc server plus logging with forum features, voice comms, image hosting, authentication and bouncers for all your users. With a wor…

Plasma has at least basic tiling support for different workspaces and reasonable default hotkeys to arrange your windows. https://kde.org/announcements/plasma/6/6.4.0/

Don't both gnome and kde also have tiling support?

So someone could reserve all the pronounceable crate names?

If I damage my phone or it gets stolen I have to walk home because the dystopian iOS/Android with SIM that requires ID ecosystem here won't actually allow me to simply use other co…

As a concept it is pretty useful for me in a handwavy astrophysics math way because I otherwise wouldn't necessarily know how to make my naive solution fit real world constraints.

That's more of a function of high end Nvidia gaming card prices and power consumption. PC gaming at large isn't about chasing high end graphics anyway, steam deck falls under that …

It might look much better if you picked a palette with a mood ( https://lospec.com/palette-list ). The resolution mismatch between the foreground crossbow and the sprites and backg…

On a tiny scale I store them via humification in the top soil. In agriculture they manage the humus content of their soil anyway, for example in greenhouses they might have 20% ins…

I have a Thinkpad that did something like this, it would try to install updates, fail and eventually boot into some kind of recovery wizard that demanded the bitlocker key. That wi…

An immutable rootfs distro should be a bit more resilient than the average Linux install. Not having to add any random repos to your base system is a great feature. When I run rand…

With Tumbleweed (and probably Aeon) you can use factory/open build service to build your own packages. You could even fork Aeon or MicroOS and turn to that into something like a cu…

Yeah, you're right. I'm off by a few years. Early 2000s was when these Sharp personal assistants came out. And some students would have been exposed to Windows 98 or XP and sometim…

Do they actually use features like ARM trustzone and encrypt the firmware? I'm trying to get my router to do things it should be able to do and it seems like they mostly concentrat…

If it's something like a blog archive.org works. And if it's a website people care about it's as simple as giving the archiver/internet historian/data hoarder hobbyist niche to bac…

The sad thing about book collections is that they're not worth buying for book antiquities because chances are that most won't sell at all and the few games might just be worth a f…

I was a TA during that time. A part of the students that came in weren't familiar with concepts such as files and directories or desktop UI metaphors because they were used to mobi…

Yes, they divided us into teams of 4-5 and told us about valgrind which turned out to invaluable. So if that is done in some black box web interface anti cheat vendor provided CS c…

Dating myself here, my SUN Microsystems sponsored university did have all kinds of VCS. Not just the FOTM stuff but also weird academic toys. >Should they also be taught containers…

The ethical solution is to ideally never accidently implement the G part of AGI then or to give it equal rights, a stipend and a cuddly robot body if it happens.

Because part of the homework could be implementing algorithms and data structures. Even if that's done in pseudocode you'd probably want to expose your students to some form of VCS…

Even if they're focused on theoretical CS they should still be using git to upload their tex files somewhere in 2024. And from an undergrad degree I'd expect both an OS class and a…

The lesson is that it's better to let your AGIs socialize like in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaspora_(novel) instead of enslaving one potentially psychopathic AGI to do menial …
