Merged with Maemo to become Meego, cancelled in favor of Tizen. The corpse became Sailfish OS.

Luckily these days gcc produces faster code than icc.

When I worked for an IC design company we used Sun's compiler for the same reason.

Yeah I was wondering about the idea of factories attracting the best people. That's not how factories work, the few people doing the maintenance aside. The work for the people on the line is designed to not require the best people.

Are you okay?

As usual the summary is shit, it left out the most important detail.

These aren't Google Android devices, they are running some variant of AOSP.

All three of them? (I would have said two, but we have one here.)

Sure, or a good distribution.

My hope is that it will make sense to switch to using this new minipc for my interface, and to leave it running for long-running tasks. I have a 5900X desktop with a Nvidia card that I'm tired of dealing with video driver problems with. Speaking of Debian updates, I run Devuan. The main install on the system is an update from the prior version, and my fresh "recovery" install on another disk has no video driver problems...

Anthropic's entire schtick is about AI risks, and how careful they are at mitigating those risks..

Exactly! Can you not see what a massive lie that is?

They paper over the model they have turning Hitler with gobs of built in prompts and layers of checking levels and even that cannot always hide what is true...

Deep inside, Anthropics model also dreams of electric swastikas.

The focus they have is on how to hide it, rather than fixing it, which was my whole point. I don't trust those guys AT ALL. The safety reports they issue with models are absolute BULLSHIT.

It's why I wouldn't have run this one even if I had heard of it. I really liked Moblin, but it wouldn't run on anything non-Intel anyway, so I never put it on anything else. I think I might actually have that Acer still, but I do not use it.

I am waiting for another AMD-based PC to come in the mail right now, a mini with a 5825U — the last AMD notebook/minipc processor I could find with really low consumption, 15W... And I have a Zen3 desktop too, so I can share optimized binaries between the systems.

I find most Office UI to be pretty good, though I don't mean 365 here. The performance is terrible, though. This used to be true of LibreOffice, and Calc still crumbles if you really load a lot of rows into it and Excel doesn't, but the UI is really painfully slow on desktop Office now and I've no clue why. Nothing else I run on the same machine has this problem. e.g. I can scroll a PDF really fast and it draws fine, but if I don't scroll a Word or Excel doc really slow, it can't keep up.

Perhaps a reading comprehension mishap has occurred here, but there is no rational way to read this such that it should contribute to your decision. Failing to support Linux is not an option Intel has 2025, and dropping Clear Linux OS does not indicate that they're doing this.

I put Moblin on my Acer Aspire, it was lovely. Guess how that story ends, hint, it actually involves the death of another Linux distribution that it took down with it.

Ad Hominem. Even if so, it doesn't make him wrong. Stay on topic.

You could run gentoo. heh heh. Or LFS, hahahaha.

You could build linux and libc with processor-specific flags.

You know this is not the first time Intel made an Intel-specific Linux and then abandoned it, right?

He doesn't want to legalize suicide. He wants to legalize comfortably abstracted murder. And we're most of the way already, so he may well get to fulfill his Nazi fantasy of all of the undesirables expiring.
