Unfortunately X forwarding doesn’t work (as far as I can tell) with vulkan.

What I’ve been doing is using waypipe (which seems very stable), with xwayland-satellite (which is not so stable) on the remote end.

I’d also love persistent sessions, so I’ve been following wprs, but it doesn’t seem to support GPU drawing at all.

Lots of interesting tech, but it’s still pretty immature.

export WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-1

Like with X it’s not guaranteed to be that value, but same idea.

C at least has a preprocessor. C# has almost nothing except generators, which are a huge pain in the ass. Java seems to be similar.

Lisp is the greatest. Everything else is in between.

We should have tools and libraries that help us avoid boilerplate, not ones that help us write more of it.

Doesn’t fdroid build everything from source (in the main repo)? There’s no way Google would allow them to do that with their own developer keys.

• UFO/X-COM
• Ultima VII
• Starsiege: Tribes

It won’t boot though, because the keys to decrypt the system are stored in the TPM.

Sure you could replace the whole OS, but that’s going to be very obvious and won’t allow you access to the data.

In interactive add mode you can use s to split a hunk, and e to edit it. That’s usually enough for me to split things up.

This was on my mind, but then I just watched it yesterday.

There’s a film that covers how they named Gleemonex:

The first decision has to be vim/emacs.

Or to copy something and modify it 30 times.

This seems like a very bad idea. I think we just need more lisp and less AI.

I was a pretty experienced programmer when I first read SICP, but I still found it incredibly valuable. I’d recommend it to anyone.

I had pretty much the same experience finding the virtual memory settings on a win11 machine the other day. Same 20 year old dialog, now buried 5 more layers deep.

It’s actually possible in a way:

But you necessarily need to limit the devices and operating systems that are allowed. No custom ROMs, no root access, etc.

It’s bullshit and breaks open computing as a concept.

I don’t disagree exactly, but I’d argue that you’re contributing to the project even if you’re just reporting bugs or helping others with it on e.g. Lemmy.

I could see avoiding all of that pragmatically in order to use some obscure, critical software, but not something you use every day and for which there are reasonable alternatives.

It’s kind of absurd. When you buy a TV, the bloated adware at least helps lower the price. Imagine paying extra for it.

If it makes a sound you don’t recognise, use the gun.

I trust you to make more of them.

AI generated meeting notes make it easy to produce summaries and action items for all parties, including those who couldn’t make the meeting

I’m only familiar with the Zoom version of this, but every time I’ve seen it used, it made so many mistakes that I would never trust it.

Maybe it’s okay in certain scenarios, but it’s like having someone taking notes that has no understanding of the context (our project, industry, etc).

Edit: I should emphasise the worst part. A human with no context would write “(something technical about GPUs that I don’t understand)”, whereas the AI confidently makes up some bullshit.
