I generally do mention that I like my Fedora KDE, but I’m a little worried about SELinux. I have had two or three run-ins with it, and I think that would be hard to diagnose for a noob.

Okay good, thanks for confirming. I remember Kate feeling very nice to use during my studies, more responsive than VS Code or Eclipse. But I also had 16Gigabytes of RAM, so I couldn’t be sure.

The lede by OP here contains this:

[…] addition to Xcode 16 […] is a feature called Predictive Code Completion. Unfortunately, if you bought into Apple’s claim that 8GB of unified memory was enough for base-model Apple silicon Macs, you won’t be able to use it

So either RecluseRamble meant that development with a feature like predictive code completion would work on 8 GB of RAM if you were using Linux or his comparison was shit.

The techradar article is terrible, the techcrunch article is better, the Flow website has some detail.

But overall I have to say I don’t believe them. You can’t just make threads independent if they logically have dependencies. Or just remove cache coherency latency by removing caches.

Who here really has the time to stand, think and waste in the shower?

People not in a drought. It’s been quite wet here in Switzerland recently :-D

so, my alarm company replaced it. installed the new smoke detector yesterday and… it just went off again.

Nice theory but it’s disproven by OP’s initial text

ARM is like Hotwheels, there are lots of cars, but you can’t make your own.

That’s not entirely true. There are companies that have the ARM achitecture license, like Apple or Cavium (now bought by Marvell). They are allowed to make their own hotwheels using the spring system or the wheels or whatever.

What has our copyright got to do with privacy expectation?

Better yet you can configure gitignore globally for git.

I think you really need the project specific gitignore as well, to make sure any other contributor that joins by default has the same protections in place.

In general media files can be formed in a way to trigger some bug in the media player, sometimes in ways that allow to overflow buffers and start ROP chaining.

About 8 years ago there was this media file going around crashing any iPhones that tried to play it with the integrated player.

Of course crashing is way easier than code execution. So overall your scenario is unlikely. VLC also does not yet know of any issues with 3.0.20: https://www.videolan.org/security/

Worst case the new owner employ Jones afterwards

Wake me up when the AI travels to the network PoPs for me to replace broken parts, to install new transponder cards and new routers, to cable everything up correctly, to label it all and to photograph the result for documentation.

A language for noobs

That assertion surprises me; I find C easier to use than Rust.

Bring back skins in applications.

I love the Cristal Disk Mark / Info applications for this. Some cool Japanese guy, going by hiyohiyo, develops them as free software. And he is not afraid to make editions decorated with presumably his favourite Anime girls

Wow, thanks for the link. It seems things have gotten a lot more complicated with PoS. I didn’t even know about PBS. I haven’t been following along properly.

It’s a private MEV mempool

Are you sure there is such a thing? My understanding was that they just submit their sandwich transactions to the mempool with higher and lower gas respectively to achieve their desired priority ranking. Could be wrong though.

by fraudulently gaining access to pending transactions

That makes no sense to me. The mempool is public, everyone can see pending transactions.

Wow I thought she was perhaps subtle about her hatred, and that’s why she isn’t universally rejected yet, but apparently that’s not the case:

Calling a man a man is not ‘bullying’ or ‘punching down.’ Crossdressing straight men are currently one of the most pandered-to demographics in existence, and women are under no obligation to applaud the people caricaturing us. — J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) May 12, 2024

Unfortunately the article of the post directly contradicts your point about ZLUDA improving:

ZLUDA appears to be floundering now, with both AMD and Intel having passed on the opportunity to develop it further

Following the links and searching around, I found this: Andrzej “vosen” Janik, the lead dev, says in his FAQ:

What’s the future of the project?
With neither Intel nor AMD interested, we’ve run out of GPU companies. I’m open though to any offers of that could move the project forward. Realistically, it’s now abandoned and will only possibly receive updates to run workloads I am personally interested in (DLSS).
