    Nah, DBus itself is plain bad interface design. Perhaps they could just piggyback off Binder if DBus itself weren't beyond saving. Also, despite a common sentiment online, it's not…

    Every [Linux based] OS usually needs some sort of HAL to wrap [ioctl] driver calls into APIs that can be consumed by more than one process at a time. Nokia/Moblin/Sailfish use Free…

    Switching from Android style Linux HAL to FreeDesktop style Linux HAL… I honestly think we need more Linux HAL options than just those two, when one is threatening to self-destruct…

    I don't use the dummy plug for display, it's only that consumer nvidia gpus won't have working 3D acceleration if there is nothing physically connected to the card. My dummy plug d…

    Now you try working with a fake in your head's place! :þ But yeah, real head (a monitor; doesn't have to be on) also works just as well, and even no head at all works, just won't a…

    Nvidia GPUs refuse to accelerate 3D w/o an output connected; if I had a Radeon, I wouldn't need the plug, it's just an Nvidia thing I believe. Afaict, Moonshine relies on a separat…

    But Sunshine _is_ headless, I would know if it weren't, I'm using it as such (albeit with a dummy plug, but that's just a hardware limitation).

    Wow, Firefox never fully loads the page, while WebKit fails to load it altogether, instead it displays "Operation was cancelled" in system font after a short freeze. I didn't manag…

    I thought I'm the hardest to impress gremlin out there, but despite what the comments here look like, this is the best looking and practical MD3 CSS I've seen to the time. Not fond…

    Here in northern Europe, there just isn't enough sunlight to not become deficient, so a vitamin D supplement is a must.

    Isn't CEC available for all in-tree GPU drivers using DP-to-HDMI passthrough? (although I do imagine Nvidia would still be preferred for a custom build, perhaps with a USB CEC inje…

    You could run java literally anywhere it matters with not too much effort, but ios store terms would never allow for mods anyway (neither would ps/xbox/ninty store probably), so yo…

    Well the difference here is that you're overly simplifying complex biology and many other factors whereas llms are in fact actually simple mathematical models. As always, the devil…

    Calling llm slop "hallucinating" is so counter-productive imo. After all, LLMs are just a variant of markov chains and as such this technology isn't able to discern falsehoods from…

    Rust is impl-first bottom-up and it's stuck with a single implementation and GCC for Rust is still in the works, meanwhile C++26 reflection is already in GCC trunk.

    "quit my FAANG job" as in they simultaneously worked in Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Nvidia and Google? Or did the op work at Netflix and is too ashamed to admit that :P
