I do, too. They should start by cutting the defense budget every year by the amount by which they could not pass the prior year's audit.

I don't even want rounded corners. I like sharp windows.

What a typical waste of time.

The Amiga was a dead end. It was awesome for its time and I owned many of them, but the cool stuff you could do with the OS was in many cases predicated on a lack of memory protection and this was also a major drawback. It was good that you could reboot quickly, because it was frequently necessary. The custom chips were however death to backwards compatibility, and the more they were used, the harder it was to update existing software for a new chipset.

PCs started to do the things Amiga did even at the time, for example there were accelerated graphics cards even for Windows 3.1 that would accelerate drawing operations and do bitblits, and the GUS Max would offload some audio processing from the CPU.

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?

How did the stock market get into this discussion?

And the list concept concerns me. Are these lists appealable? If not, then they're abusable.

Also, the line between "AI generated" and "non-AI generated" is ever more fuzzy. AI is used for upscaling. AI is used in cameras to enhance images taken. AI is used to make the sort of minor edits that are done the world over in Photoshop. Etc. There's also the fact that this is done with image fingerprinting, which is fuzzy, so then any images that have minor modifications done with AI which get added to the list will get the raw images flagged as well. The thing people want to stop is "fake images", and in particular, "fake images that mislead about the topic at hand". But then that's not "AI" that's the problem in specific, that's image fakery in general (AI just makes it faster / easier).

And re: fingerprinting, take for example, the famous case of the content-spam creator who took a photo of a woodcarving of a German Shepard, flipped it horizontally, ran it through an AI engine to make trivial tweaks to the image, and then listed it as his own. I'd think any decent fingerprinting software would catch both versions. And if it's not flexible enough to catch that, then I have to wonder how useful it is at all, since images constantly change as they move around the internet, even accidentally, let alone deliberately.

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...

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.

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.
