Okay, I’m hooked, I have to know the non-clickbait story

I believe that one was patched a while ago

I’m a big fan of tiling window managers like i3 or awesome (awesome wm). Awesome is the one I use. It’s tiling and the entire interface is built from scripts that they encourage you to modify. Steep learning curve but once you get it how you like, there’s nothing like it.

Some people do like that sort of thing though. I would never forcibly share it with those who don’t want it, but I do want to see it myself.

There are a multitude of established, studied, simple changes that could be made to make things safer for pedestrians with relatively little needed in the way of sacrifice from car designers

Can you share some of these? I had a small stint in the auto design industry and am genuinely curious.

I’m way more worried about where the energy is coming from and what the true cost of storage is, rather than where I get it from. Every conversion/storage has an energy and materials cost. As bad as petrol burning is, I have to imagine coal burning + transfer loss has to be about as bad. Not to mention the nature of lithium cells.

We don’t need more charging stations to make EV viable, we need more nuclear power plants and cleaner battery tech first.

hence the omission I suggested unreasonable. That database needs to be updatable by the end user, trivially. IMHO could/should be done ad-hoc by a hobbyist or as part of a standard oil change every ~6mo.

“[an] integrated vehicle system that uses, at minimum, the GPS location of the vehicle compared with a database of posted speed limits, to determine the speed limit, and utilizes a brief, one-time visual and audio signal to alert the driver each time they exceed the speed limit by more than 10 miles per hour.”

Honestly the only part of this that is unreasonable is that it isn’t immediately followed with “the database updates will be maintained and provided in an open, unencrypted format for free for the life of the vehicle, and the tracking data cannot be used for any other purpose”. GPS is a one-way, triangulation-based signal. It doesn’t inherently track or leak anything. I think we would be a lot safer if we all could agree what speed to go.

Never change

That is usually more incompetence than malice. They write a game that requires different operation on amd vs Nvidia devices and basically write an

If Nvidia: Do x; Else if amd: Do Y; Else: Crash;

The idea being that if the check for amd/Nvidia fails, there must be an issue with the check function. The developers didn’t consider the possibility of a non amd/Nvidia card. This was especially true of old games. There are a lot of 1990s-2000s titles that won’t run on modern cards or modern windows because the developers didn’t program a failure mode of “just try it”

Businesses “follow the constitution” here. The nuance is that the first amendment (freedom of speech) explicitly only applies to consequences from government. As a private corporation, the people running Harvard have the right to their own speech, in this case: a policy denying graduation, without consequence from the government.

I in no way endorse the speech that Harvard is expressing, but I do have the right to impose my own consequences on them for it (I.E not supporting things they do financially, disparaging them in an online forum like Lemmy, etc). The constitution prevents the US government from punishing Harvard for these actions in the same ways, unless a law has explicitly been broken.

I am not joking lol but I do sometimes forget most people don’t live in this space the same way I do. I think people use these names because the programs themselves are forked often and the software names are very unspecific otherwise. I meant to imply that I was using the main branches of these softwares.

I have this running at home on a used r630 (CPU only). oobabooga/automatic1111 for LLM/SD backends, vosk + mimic3 for tts/stt. A little bit of custom python to tie it all together. I certainly don’t have latency as low as theirs, but it’s definitely conversational when my sentences are short enough.

It’s like grifting, but also a pyramid scheme.

That was my first thought lmao

TL/DW for those of us who don’t learn well from video content?

I thought most surveys showed like 30-40% of israelis were in support of a single-state solution?

Not that I remotely _want to defend reddit, but from a development standpoint it’s much easier to maintain and secure a single login workflow. Whatever nonsense the new/old font ends require, it’s probably much easier to make that work with a single unified token than it is to maintain both separately.

As long as the login remembers which frontend it came from, I wouldn’t be too up in arms here. If it dumps you out to www/new.reddit then that’s completely fucked and there’s no excuse.

Yeah I’m really curious what his take is going to be on this one lol. Technically it doesn’t have a layer-2 capable bridge mode like other VPN solutions like openvpn, but that’s about all I can think of. It’s still objectively a virtual network, made private by a keypair exchange.

Probably just blindly paroting something someone told him. Awkward way to learn that one lmao.

I have so many questions
