Archiving the repo doesn't stop the downloads. They would need to rename it in order to prevent distro CI/CD from keeping downloading untrustworthy stuff.
But UEFI can have pretty graphics and mouse support, so it must be better... /s Now seriously, TPM and GPT are improvements. Customizable SecureBoot along with disk and RAM encryption, are also nice.
It doesn't help that much of the "C development community" is made of electronics engineers writing "some code to make the hardware work", instead of people with a focus on security. It's similar to the "C++ developer…
Is that TBM small enough to fit on a SpaceX Starship and send it to Mars? I always thought Boring was a project intended for digging a base on Mars, fitting a whole Tesla in the tunnel would be even more than what's…
It's both. Trademark law requires registering for a series of categories where a product seeks protection, with each category being relatively specific. At the same time, suing someone for Trademark infringement…
It is an issue of trust precisely because a third party controls the platform. If mods actually owned the infrastructure for their spaces, there would be no trust involved, they'd just own it. In this case, mods trusted…
Mastodon, Lemmy, kbin, and the fediverse in general, are right now experimenting an unprecedented growth in number of instances, users, and activity.
Reddit is failing right now. Popular communities already had a lot of people who wouldn't engage in positive discourse, only offset by those massively downvoting and reporting the "noise" comments. Now that they're the…
Q1) Sure, why not. Plenty of power tripping people out there wishing for a turn at the banhammer. Q2) No. The communities are already failing just because the exodus of power users is causing a lack of self-moderation…
Indeed. It can however interact with Lemmy and kbin, which are direct Reddit replacements.
"Relay for reddit" offers a good experience: removes header and footer on scrolling, shows a list of post titles with previews, hides all actions behind a finger flick, with less used ones in expandable menus.
Teens/young adults, or really anyone "new" to the web/internet, haven't learned yet the importance of information transmission speed, or which use patterns will make them lose more time than get them something…
Find the key in no time, but how much time for the information to reach us? If it's a cube close by, then great, but most of them would still be millions of light years away.
It used to be that people using the Internet would realize, or were made to realize, that text communication lacks many of the non-verbal cues, so one should always try to avoid offending others, while when in doubt…
On the other hand, following that logic, in times of peace the soldiers of yesteryear are out of work. I'm not a fan of cancel culture, but it might be just a sign that priorities have changed for people. Maybe the…
Isn't this the same principle behind a Tesla valve?
I've been messing around with some code that uses: #define TERN(c, a, b) c ? a : b I'm not a fan of ternaries, but that macro makes it kind of more ligible.
All I care about is whether this is opt-in and whether I can decide to not give then that data. Other than that, Google being able to process more data about their own platform than others, is something to be expected.
I'm not sure China is underestimating anything. They had an asset, in the form of millions of underqualified workers, and they've used it, to manufacture cheap stuff. But with increasing automation, that asset was never…
They will likely have some Apple specific features, but I doubt they'd want to make them incompatible to the point of requiring a software rewrite compared to other ARM chips. Just recompile your stuff, jump through…
Some people know several languages, but it's difficult to learn a locale well enough to 100% touch type when you only have a keyboard in a single locale, and don't use some of the languages as often as others. Also,…
My optimal keyboard would have: mechanical switches, per-key RGB LEDs, MX keycaps with translucent borders to see the LED lights ("pudding" style), per-key legends that would change with the keyboard language and…
Eink used to be expensive, have slow refresh rates, and no color. OLED screens on the other hand have vibrant colors and can show videos. The concept of OLED keycaps is still superior, but it needs to be realized much…
The ping from Earth to Mars varies between 360 and 2600 seconds, so 30 might still be fast enough for an "interplanetary" thing.
Reopening or not is a simple balance between "risk of avoidable deaths" vs. "risk of economic damage". Different people put a different value on each one of those, which makes it a political decision.
