OOP is AI writing about AI

You mean, the wheelchair kind? People all around will just go “neuron activation” and help. Where do you live where that’s not the norm? Except maybe at night but it’s on them if they decide it’s a good idea.

OR upgrade to a scooter.

True… except maybe

places with lots of snow; no reliable snow plowing

People have dag tunnels under snow whenever tall enough. And then they just walk. People usually use Kamchatka, Russia as an example of that, but it happens in other areas as well. Well, that’s the extreme; normally once again people just walk on top. If you are careful enough, you can avoid getting snow in your shoes even when stepping on loose snow. Most of the time you don’t even have to deal with that because (at least where I live) people just silently all agree to shovel out snow on sidewalks they own. On city/company/nobody owned property, “desire paths” of sorts appear rather quickly. Personally saw lots of cyclists on snow, and actually much less cars for obvious reasons.

Well, all of that assuming you are not in north america lul

my legs can reach all sorts of places lol, no need to bring a giant piece of metal with me

Well, it’s clear it’s translated from German, especially how “cable” means both the whole assembly and the inner wire+rubber.

fairly produced in germany
fairly produced in germany
fairly produced in germany
made in china

Ah, yes. Well, I mean, it does clarify in the text:

Our cable is fairly produced in Germany, and the plugs come from fair production in China.

but then:

Our cable manufacturer uses stearates as an additive.

Which implies that they don’t manufacture the inner cable/wire and that they only assemble the plugs and wires together. Could do that myself for way cheaper. Except maybe the braided hose thing…

Noooo, don’t look at the bad, look at the good. We have this place and Gemini (the good one) to express ourselves.

And besides, the title in this repost is a bit sensational. That specific captcha needs a phone with the Google app. You can just delete data + refresh until you get a different one. Nothing about specifically degoogled phones, people without phones are affected just as much. I am sure MicroG would work just as well (if not now, at least later). Also, ideally you should click the fuck away from recaptcha sites either way. Paradoxically, Google’s own sites don’t have it usually except the search but nobody needs that (at least anyone you would ask on here), DuckDuckGo + StartPage (OR SearXNG) is good enough.

I don’t know. But it’s random, which gives sites a “false sense of fingerprintability” each time.

Look at my epic WebGL render:

time_t is in libc headers, just rebuild and good to go

If there’s no ForceCommand (I think that’s what it was called?) in sshd.conf and no command=x in .authorized_keys (if any), you can probably use mosh. It spins up SSH to authenticate and then immediately start a UDP based connection afterwards. Instead of logging out every 15 minutes, you will get a “Last contacted X seconds ago” overlayed every minute, that’s sure an improvement. Do note, however, that it keeps your shell running with no way to reattach to it if your machine turns off.

Idk, XDG is weird.
“Music”, “Documents”, “Downloads”, “Public” and “Templates” are in Ukrainian;
“Public” and “Downloads” are duplicated in English;
“Desktop” is just English;
“Images” is in Russian for me for some reason.

No Projects despite me updating recently, I guess it just gave up.

What’s wrong with Music? That’s where I put my low tier Soundcloud rap!

It’s a native Android feature since ~9 IIRC. Well, if the ROM maintainer didn’t decide to disable it for whatever reason :(

You can toggle it off for specific networks.

Most compromised routers scrape the hostname (both regular and mDNS) and MAC address. What you do is disable mDNS related daemons like kdeconnect and avahi (until you want them) and put this in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf:

[main]
hostname-mode=none

[device]
wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=yes

[connection]
ethernet.cloned-mac-address=random
wifi.cloned-mac-address=random
connection.mdns=0
connection.llmnr=0

(yes, the mdns bit above is a bit redundant, but systemd has something related that might read it and better be safe than sorry)

This won’t protect you if the router is a bit smarter and can see your NTP server (usually like “x.archlinux.pool.ntp.org” instead of just “x.pool.ntp.org”), your connectivity check (same as NTP) and other servers your machine connects to (like Tor nodes if you have the daemon running and oftc.net if you have an IRC client). The good news is that none are known to check that (at least to me).

You mean in 2018? When the Index was being developed top secret?

fs, scheduler

So performance? Idk, I zone out or go get a glass of water whenever something’s compiling or some bloatware is trying to launch. Probably like 0.x second improvements (in addition to the random “faster paths” the maintainers add from time to time regardless).

drivers, mesa/vulkan

I have an AMD APU, kind of sharing a lot of code with the Deck hardware. GPU suspend was broken twice (when the machine was new + 2 weeks ago). Oh, and whenever my uptime exceeds like 10 days or so, it sometimes decides to wake up to a black screen with my cursor (and the entire plymouth shutdown screen) being colored stripes. Now, the popularity of the Steam Deck made navigating issue trackers near impossible. Constant dump of random bullshit daily. Lots of shit is being closed as duplicate of other bugs which are slightly different but “close enough”.

gamescope

If we are talking about impact, may as well mention that they could have forked cage or something for the compositor.

proton

Cool. The ReactOS/Wine people do most of the work on matters other than obscure graphics and application specific quirks though. One must really hate themselves to understand Win32 internals in the first place, so you have to give them credit. Also, Valve’s fork is often pretty outdated to upstream which is why lots of people are using the third party fork of the fork that rebases with the original (Proton GE).

what steam deck did for linux

Ngl, I was a user the whole time, before and after, and can’t tell a difference. Except maybe slightly better HDR support? They mostly donated to KDE tho (!= the kernel).
