It had value, before it bought xAI.

Now there’s an infinite money pit attached to it

I’d had a dedicated windows drive for a little while… Maybe a bug and not malice, but the forced Windows 8 -> 10 upgrade deleted everything on my second drive that windows wasn’t installed on

Where in the source does Firefox expose machine-id to websites?

With a quick grep I’m only seeing it around audio?

Yeah, you can certainly get cheaper laptops, but if you’re looking for similar build quality, it’s not that much more

I would also say, for me, the peace of mind with how easy it is to fix is worth it. I used to stress over my wife or nephew or someone wanting to do something on my laptop, but now if they poke the screen with their finger I just think I can fix it in 5 minutes if they mess it up

ARM is still extremely fragmented.

When there are ARM vendors selling SystemReady at SR levels for a similar price to x86, it will be at the point it could take over

RISC-V RVA22 is interesting, but not a lot of options yet, either

If you’re using rsync and not scp or a USB stick, I’m pretty sure you’re already in the top 50%

Is there any chance he’s self aware enough to know he just ate shit?

Looking at the rest of the AI landscape, I’d think they’re overcharging themselves, rather than undercharging.

All the money then stays in the same collective pool, and xAI’s numbers look better

I will say the Rust stdlib seems to make TOCTOU bugs really easy to make for filesystem operations

But, yes, Ubuntu switching to a test project hurts it

And what a low peak it was

If you don’t have an Ethernet connection, fairly regularly

It’s at least better than the Vista days where it didn’t even have an Ethernet driver consistently, and you had to download your Ethernet driver from another computer 🤷‍♂️

Ah, if you’re saying it should have been designed based off 5.25" I’m down :)

Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away

They’re extremely complicated, which is impressive, but also means they are rife for improvement

It’s grossly exaggerated because it was designed when we had UX designers

It has to look okay all the way down to 8x8 pixels

The imports are just to placate Trump around tariffs, and it’s not worth it to them to improve all cars made in America

So they’re warning any Japanese buyers that if they buy it, they’re getting the lower quality models

Slightly more than $24,950, so likely less than $30,000

I think it’s done this way because framing it as a “setback” gives the impression Rockstar is in the right and will overcome their setback to succeed in the end.

They don’t want you to think the workers were right

As long as they produce a PoC like fuzzing tools, I don’t think anyone is complaining

It’s the theoretical attacks that nearly always turn out to be impossible, wasting time, and making it harder to find the real issues that need investigation that’s the problem with slop reports

Pretty sure that just implements HOTP/TOTP

You could replace it with FreeOTP

Somewhere around the end of Windows 8, they fired all of their testers

Now they’re using AI to make patches

It’s been a steady decline, not a fast decline
