reddit is being less and less trustworthy and interesting, the constant opinion bubbles make it impossible to have a thoughtful conversation anywhere.

So it requires writing a CMake script, some python, and some weird C++ code.

A bit tedious but that's how it goes.

I don't understand how an LLM is able to reason about those things

LLM use language, but it can't "think" about biochemistry

I saw that LLM have reasoning capabilities, which is different from machine learning, but I don't understand how it works.

I mean, even if android is/was open source, it was always fastidious to build a de-googled android image for a phone model.

Of course it's not great for their business model. Not to mention, no more trustworthy app distribution.

I don't see the EU really being able to forcing them to de-google android phones.

I am also curious how much those phones would cost, BTW, since the cost calculation to release such an OS would be a bit complicated.

As long as you have critical thinking, it's fine.

So I would say it accentuates the gap between good developers and bad ones.

A sharp sense for logic and causality etc is what differentiates.

I'll never get over game dev people arguing that I should spend half my budget on marketing, which they mean ads.

The internet has so much fraud, bad actors and toxicity, yet it makes so much money.

hey, no threats, please

I prefer firefox, but doesn't firefox have a history of more similar exploits?

That was the last software that held me to windows

I hope plugin makers are going to port them too

Sorry what's the link between valve and kremlin?

the problem is that HTML is so bloated nowadays, that medium phones cannot deal with it, so apps always have better performance

I want to believe this will reveal people who do tax fraud or potentially illegal tax dodging schemes

It's probably the quickest way to punish those people, just regular data leaks from the tax bureau.

I'm probably too optimistic, since this data is probably not admissible in court.

win10, firefox

freezing for no reason

could this be used to create some panic and make some money through trading or something?

no idea who submitted all of those, but it sounds like malicious intent

How could they manage to forget that underscore if that's their only evidence?

I don't know why, but on windows, the first time I start VLC after a windows boot, it takes about 5s to 8s to open a video file, any sort of video file

I suspect it's a graphics driver issue, or something else

I fear that in the future, opengl will be made obsolete and GPU vendors will stop supplying drivers for it, because it won't be worth it for them. Of course there are layers to be put on top of vulkan, but I don't know if they're reliable enough and can support 100% of opengl.

I would say that's one thing that the "stop killing games" movement would not see coming. I am not expert enough in graphics programming.

I am wary because lately, I realized I could not run blender 4.5 on a thinkpad from 2014, on windows, I had to use a 3.x version because that thinkpad has a chipset.

Generally in software, making things work for a long time doesn't generate profits, and it feels like opengl is getting a bit old already. I hope it won't happen and people can contradict me here.

got banned on my EU country subreddit for saying hamas dresses as civilians

reddit is probably the worst echo chamber of the internet

Blender is certainly a great software, but there are still remains of bad UI choices, for example how zooming works

https://blender.stackexchange.com/questions/644/why-does-the...

They improved the UI already, but maybe they could improve it a little bit more. And this is not the only frustration, I constantly have to ask around for little things like that.

Also important to know, but late blender versions don't support old GPU, which is a bit sad: I can't use late blender version on my old thinkpad which only has a graphics chipset.

Care to give arguments?

Does Israel has the intent of genocide? I don't think so.

Does Hamas try to maximize civilian casualties with martyrdom? By meshing its combattants with civilians? Yes.

The Geneva convention, unfortunately, allows collateral to a certain extent.

Hamas also executed gazans several times.

Israel does have a very aggressive strategy, but labeling it a genocide doesn't help the Palestinian cause.

Words matter.

I read many people saying "it's just a PC", but I am a bit skeptical for now.

I will probably wait for reviews to see how it goes

I still feel very interested, though, but I would need to adapt some workflows that I have with paint.net for now

so the available software is a bit limited then

I can still customize and configure things, or not really?

does that mean I can't customize the OS, like shortcuts?

So SteamOS is just arch linux?

I guess there are important differences?

This is just wishful thinking

We don't have a good definition of intelligence

Also, the premise that this thing would take over, it's hard to reason why it would do so

Anthropocentrism is also problematic in this article.

I did not say everyone is a gamer, but it's still a big market share

valve is on the brink of replacing windows with steam for many people

it's probably not a big dent in market share, but it's probably a good tipping point

Feels like another bad idea from management born in the silicon valley

Thanks nuclear for subsidizing renewables

it's probably time to call those old retired programmers to ask them how to reduce software memory footprint

or to teach that again
