Not if it helps raise awareness and gets companies to notice. Is peanutbutterjelly.co.uk more worthy of a domain ?
How do people who are far sighted use cameras without EVF ? When I have to hold a camera 20 cm in front of me to film I just pretend I'm able to focus on the LCD.
I wish this worked without prefixing the commands with "once". Especially if I ran a command with verbose output and afterwards decided I wanted to grep something from it. Terminals have the output in their scrollback buffer and maybe it's just a matter of writing an "output" command that lets me run:
$ cmake ..
$ output | grep "libssl version"
When the first TV ships with a battery to keep running while unplugged, I'm dusting off my soldering iron and my digital circuits handbook.
Could a smartphone sit between 2 regular laptops to achieve this with 3 USB cables and a hub ?
I still hope a future FFmpeg release will make Intel QSV encoding available on Windows laptops where the manufacturer disabled this capability from the ACPI tables. The only way to use it on these laptops is currently FFmpeg on Linux.
Hey I just came up with this idea, I'm going to feed copyrighted books into my LLM that remembers them verbatim, and then people pay me to ask the LLM for complete copies of a book.
Wait, no, not verbatim. It transforms upper case into lower case and vice versa.
A real estate photographer described the typical job as taking 15 photos of the same living room while moving a softbox around and then merging the layers in Photoshop. No Photoshop would be like no copy pasting permitted while writing code.
For one, audio transcription services that use Whisper will sample the input down to 16Khz mono first.
A comparison made by some Solaris guy comparing a Sun magnate to a lawnmower springs to mind.
Since the half of the app that is running on my local X or Wayland can only display a GUI and doesn't need QtNetwork, QtWebkit, Gtk Webview etc, what lightweight UI toolkit other than html+js do you recommend ?
Being able to initiate a shell app from a regular remote ssh CLI prompt (like "ApacheConfig myhost.com" or "Editor ~/myrepo") might improve integration with people's existing CLI workflows.
It does need an agent that starts with every X or Wayland session and waits for requests from remote SSH sessions to start an app.
If Unix philosophy is what's keeping systemd from requiring a Microsoft account during install, I'm all for it.
Linux will still be viable when systemd is gone. There will always be a need for open software.
I hope sites that just provide a way for people to assemble offline will be the new thing soon.
A photography guide's site that rallies amateurs for walk tours. A planning board for a foreign language practice group. A site with a schedule and registration form for a sports event.
When I read "online social" my head thinks "not-really social".
It's apparently a typo in the article, they probably meant to write `println()`.
Products have to change in a visible way so people know they're new.
Unless "nothing" is the ultra rich tech bros and "you" are the people working for them.
Is there any keyboard with flat keys, no NumPad and full sized square up/down keys, that one can obtain ?
Though it might be a while before hotels start offering Aeron Classic chairs in their rooms.
It's legal and it pays well. That is all.
Is there any library that does this safely for user-mode and is currently used in production ?
It sounds like the "app written in C++ calling Lua scripts, versus app written in Lua calling C++ libraries" debate.
Both designs (Lightroom, game engines) have worked successfully.
There's probably nothing that prevents mixing both approaches in the same "app".
SECCOMP_RET_USER_NOTIF appears to switch between the tracee and tracer processes for each syscall. Using SECCOMP_RET_TRAP to trigger a SIGSYS for every syscall in IO intensive apps introduces 5% overhead (and avoids a separate tracer).
I wonder if there's any mechanism that works for intercepting static ELF's like Go programs and such.
Online stores don't remove 1-star reviews of their products from their store. Do they ?
I hope Photoshop runs in the Linux VM introduced with Android 16, so I can stop carrying a laptop to edit photos and bring just a 0.5kg monitor instead.
It's not sweets and it's not an addiction, not everything on TV is for mindless consumption. The viewer is not who's at fault here. The right mindset is not "accept their terms or give up", it's "make your voice heard and try to make the manufacturers change their practices".
You can get banned from TikTok ? That's horrible, how ? Can you provide detailed instructions please?
Are there any bugs that an app can carry over just due to being compiled with old glibc headers for compatibility with older distros ?
