Buy a large 4k tv (like 48"+) to use as a monitor and use it without scaling. It’ll have similar DPI to am average 2.5k monitor, but you’ll have way more real-estate.
Window tiling lets you break the large display surface up into reasonably sized pieces.
Yeah, but they won’t know which waifu is my favorite
FYI, clicking the “Claim now!” button under a game will still claim the whole bundle
i now own a bunch of porn games cuz i wanted to try Postal 2 -_-
Uhh, yeah me too. And they used my credit card to sign up for porn. Smh, GOG
Counterpoint: Yeah, but if ICE kicks in your door would be comforting to know that powering your phone off prevents it from being cellebrighted. GrapheneOS with a supported Pixel device is one of the few smartphones that they can’t exploit from BFU.
The federal government isn’t using wrenches (yet)
All of my services are in a WireGuard VPN. The Internet only transports my VPN traffic. My cloud services run in a locked box, in my house and the only thing coming out of that box is VPN traffic.
To my devices, they just think that they’re on a LAN.
I do use this site, but I limit/lie about personal details and use a VPN. I assume I’m identifiable and act accordingly.
Exactly.
They generate the keys, that’s all you need to know in order to know that it isn’t secure.
The same way they prevent you from transmitting any other illegal content: they fine you and/or throw you in jail if they know you’re doing it.
It’s trivially easy to detect encrypted messages just by measuring the entropy of each message. A messaging provider would just turn you in if they detect it.
You could probably get away with peer-to-peer messaging, but your ISP would be able to detect that you’re using unapproved encryption and then turn you in to the government.
It’s okay for asking some kinds of questions. But when you get down to specific packages you’re better off just reading the README.
You can always just ask here if you can’t figure something out
This is just a tech bro pipedream, there is zero support for this idea in academia. It’s just cynical stock manipulation, that or Zuck is drinking his own Kool-Aid.
Language models are not intelligent, they’re basically a search engine that doesn’t know what is true or real. We have no idea how to handle knowledge or first order logic in neural networks and language models are so complex that we can’t even examine how they store what information they do have.
This isn’t a problem that can be solved by increasing the parameters and throwing compute at it, it would require multiple Nobel Prize-tier breakthroughs in the field.
Anyone throwing money at this expecting intelligence, much less superintelligence, is being taken for a ride.
whoop whoop
I’ve met assholes who like ICP, but Juggalos as a group are very accepting and open minded. Like postmodern hippies with a more iconic look.
The AI usage is pretty terrible though, as is often the case
What exactly do you envision as an endgame to that line of thinking?
Neural network-based machine learning isn’t a technology that’s going to be uninvented. Clearly people are using it and it is effective in a lot of fields (AlphaFold, for example).
Do you think that you can be rude and abrasive enough that the entire world collectively forgets Transformer-based models exist? What is your idea of a perfect ending here?
It just doesn’t make sense.
Yes, generative models suck and their output is bad a lot of the time. That’s a reasonable take.
Declaring that you’re done with politeness and professionalism when discussing machine learning is an extremist viewpoint. If it’s not a topic that you’re willing to engage in good faith conversation about, what is left? Violence?
Just for context, this is the developer that spectacularly crashed out of the kernel team after Greg KH kept rejecting his attempts to submit new features to a release candidate.
When his PRs were rejected and he was told to submit them in a later version he turned to social media brigading and attacking the kernel team. He did eventually get a response from Linus though…
https://www.theregister.com/2025/02/07/linus_torvalds_rust_driver/
In response to Asahi Linux lead developer Hector Martin’s call for Torvalds to “pipe up with an authoritative answer” to resolve the device driver impasse, and Martin’s defense of “shaming on social media” as a way to counter the hostility of Linux maintainers to Rust code, Torvalds dismissed the approach and took aim at Martin.
“How about you accept the fact that maybe the problem is you,” said Torvalds
It’s completely unsurprising to see this kind of unprofessional post from him where he confidently repeats the same copy pasted uneducated takes and misinformation on generative models.
This is how I do it. I’ll see something and think ‘hmm, interesting’ and completely forget any of the details but I’ll remember vaguely that something exists then I can search for it.
Language models are pretty good at solving the ‘I think I remember something that does this specific thing but don’t know where to look’ kinds of problems (don’t just blindly run LLM generated commands, kids). Then once you have a lead, traditional searching is much easier.
It’s not too common that this happens, worst case you can just drop the text into duck.ai or something to get an English translation.
Or you could just learn Spanish, ez
If you use -Qeq, you should be able to skip the awk part of the command.
TIL
Looks like I gave up on RTFM and turned to awk too early.
inxi -Fazy
That’s a pretty neat tool. I’ll definitely be using that for future troubleshooting.
My only, minor, gripe is that it shows kernel parameters which can contain the UUID of the LUKS partition containing your sysroot. This isn’t a factor in most people’s threat model, but it’s worth pointing out.
I am a proud resident of Spain 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸
Just to add a bit more to this for the newbies who are using Arch (god help you).
pacman -Qe | awk '{print $1}' > packages.txt
Will write this list to a file, run without the ‘> packages.txt’ if you just want to see the output and;
sudo pacman -S --needed - < packages.txt
Will install all of the needed (i.e. not installed) packages from that list.
The first rule of Linux is that you always picked the wrong distro and here is why mine is better.
If it works for you then it’s good enough. Just focus on learning what you’re on and a lot of that knowledge will transfer to any other distro if you want to try others.
