What's out there?

Awesome! Been looking for something like this for so long, thanks so much for making it! Tried it and it seems to work for the most part, but one app where it would be really helpf…

Right, and to be specific, what they also leave out is that the DMA only mandates that third-party providers can request access, the user can be in full control without breaching t…

I bought an Arc A770 expecting that this feature would materialise based on it being available on other contemporary Intel GPUs, but it never did. Does the B70 definitely support S…

They have a new type of core on these they refer to as a "low-power efficiency core", which is probably what is enabling these "feats", but as one of the parents to this comment po…

Yeah I think if they manage to solve that then we're gonna be cruising. I want to but can't really run AsahiLinux as it stands, my workstation is Thunderbolt-based and that's non-n…

Yeah I think this is the biggest difference. Here in Sweden if I get a headache that's bad enough I'll just take a sick day and there's not really much social stigma about that kin…

I mean Azure doesn't really support IPv6 well either for a lot of the big-ticket services.

I'm sure the number probably changed a bit, but I can tell you for a fact it isn't like cheaters disappeared overnight just because they banned Linux clients.

All the damn developers keep turning off online play for Linux users though... I play two games a lot currently, Apex Legends and Battlefield 6, both block Linux players from onlin…

Fascinating. Could this method be used to boot iPhone OS 1.0 (or at least 1.1.1) on an iPhone 2G with 16GB NAND maybe? The oldest iPhone OS that natively boots on my particular one…

I wish the iPhone 12/13 mini had been a few mm thicker for a bigger battery, and had been in the Pro class of devices. As it stands they didn't have a good enough battery to last a…

Right, in the nginx example above, someone has setup a secondary tool to provide certs at the location referenced, and is also handling renewal of them. Also, if I want to add anot…

I don't disagree, but if we end up in a situation where users are negatively affected because they chose not to update for fear of shit like this happening, that's not a great posi…

Yeah, I should have spent an extra 10 seconds thinking of the problem here and I'd have realised you can have multiple sensors going to different software on one steering column...…

Problem with that is that if it's an online product then the manufacturer also _must_ provide updates to keep the device secure so that it continues to do whatever they sold you in…

Disregard me, I'm dumb.

First I thought "WTF why?", and then it appeared in my terminal and then I thought "what the hell, I thought I turned this stuff off!?!"

If Asahi Linux had support for Thunderbolt and DP alt-mode I would be running it today, but those are dealbreakers for me unfortunately. I'm donating to them and hoping they eventu…

Or just host their own actually end-to-end encrypted chat apps.

I also reacted to this and came to the same conclusion as you.

Sounds like what bcache does? https://bcache.evilpiepirate.org/ This is what bcachefs is based on.

> letting that effort linger till display tech catches up to whatever Apple is waiting for, would feel like a waste perhaps. To add to this, it's often said that research can only …

I mean I've read a lot of what you've posted everywhere, and I can't really say I disagree with much of it, it's just a shame it all happened the way it did. Hope "go back in later…
