I think 2003 is when they started taking off.

There have been lots of cases of GPS jamming lately, where this could be used as a backup. And even more crucial for certain situations, it could detect GPS spoofing attacks.

In my experience if a metroidvania game is described as soulslike it means it will have time wasting mechanics like corpse runs, and the spawn points will be placed in awkward locations. Mostly inspired by hollow knight.

Aaron bravely published the papers

I don’t think he did.

That screen is from cloudflare. It means you’re blocking their JavaScript or iframe elements used to create the bot challenge. I get it quite often as I still use the old uMatrix extension. Temporarily unblocking and refreshing the page will let you through.

Yeah, the arch installation on my desktop is about a decade old at this point. It was installed on a completely different computer. No issues.

I believe if you want to set up picture-in-picture on LG monitors, you have to use their application - the osd menu can’t do it for some reason.

Isn’t space expanding as well, and faster than light too? So it ought to be even more than 20.

Sorry, being on c/technology I made some assumptions here. I was mostly talking to people who want a dumb tv and hook up an external smart device to it, like a media centre, an android box, or an iptv box.

This is generally agreed to be a better solution as it lets you actually control your media stack, and it provides longevity. A regular smart tv will be outdated and slow within a few years, while a dumb tv can last maybe three times longer unless something inside it actually fails.

Just an FYI to anyone looking, you can still actually buy mostly-dumb TVs.

I was looking for a TV to buy for my parents last year and it seemed like the only options available were “smart TVs,” and I begrudgingly ended up buying a Philips ambilight unit. I was pleasantly surprised by how dumb the Titan OS on it was. Sure, it had WiFi, and the usual Netflix and other streaming apps, but I just didn’t connect it to the WiFi, and from then on it was just a souped up version of their 15 year old TV. It did ask to be connected to WiFi, but stopped after being told no a few times.

I’m sure other manufacturers have similar “smart on paper, but dumb in reality” OSes, as it seems to mostly be a cost cutting exercise. The hardware in the TV would need to be more expensive to run an actual smart platform. So the manufacturers just make a low end thing that ticks the right boxes to be able to call it smart for marketing, thinking that’s what people want.

Really? :P

My friend, a podman container file is a simple tiny ini text file. Behind the scenes it gets converted to a systemd service unit file, which is also an ini text file. The service file has a simple ExecStart command that just calls podman run. Meanwhile podman will just set up an environment and run the container with runc or crun. The whole thing is basically one step above a shell script. I could buildroot a system with this entire stack and it would fit on my wifi router.

You’re the one overcomplicating things.

How ironic.

That sounds heavy and complicated.

It’s neither. A systemd generator just transforms a simple 15 line container text file to a simple 20 line service text file, and then the container lifecycle and dependencies are managed by systemd like any other system or user service.

It’s not tightly coupled to anything. It just ships with a systemd generator allowing you to manage containers, pods or networks with systemd if you want. And lots of people are noticing the benefits of that arrangement.

And somehow more “independent” than arch, when it’s based on arch?

But at double the price that they were a few months ago.

There used to be x86 Android phones. But they kept that port going even after the phones went away because it was good for development on x86 machines. You could just run a VM instead of having to emulate an arm ISA.

Not even, amd on both my laptop and desktop, but still lots of issues. None of them major, but it adds up.

while they happily stick to the X they know

I mean, I’d love to, but…
