As a listener, if a band I like is touring within 2 hours of where I live, I go see them live and get a shirt

I hope that’s helping them more than whether I listen to a scraped digital copy or not

The high-res one also removes all the shadows, I assume the upscaling algorithm believed they were blur

What this essentially means is that when the taskbar sits at the bottom, Windows and third-party apps know exactly how much horizontal space they have to work with.

Ah, so I assume they will remove support for any resolutions other than 1920x1080, since they need a consistent horizontal size, and that’s the most common.

On Roku branded TVs, it sounds like that just means you can’t use it for anything

If it doesn’t connect, it won’t let you switch inputs or anything until you connect your account

I’m sure all the Tesla apologist that kept saying “it only has to be safer than a human” whenever we pointed out how poorly the Tesla self-driving system works will change their tune now.

… Right?

Some of the lidar based systems might work eventually, but Musk’s “humans only have eyes, so we only need cameras” is unlikely to ever work

I put the curl command to update my duckdns IP in cron about 13 years ago, and have never needed to touch it once.

It’s just worked for me

If it makes you feel better (read worse) my company buys around 500,000 chips a year, and we’re still effectively in the same support tier as an individual user.

I’ve pushed for chips with upstream Linux kernel support, even though they’re more expensive, because it’s so bad with proprietary software

apt-get isn’t deprecated…

If you run apt search x | grep y, you’ll even get a warning against using apt in scripts

apt-get isn’t going away, apt is just a nicer frontend for interactive use

To be fair, they only switched to zsh in 2019, so a lot of tutorials probably still assume bash

I’m not sure how you got to “cars bad” when it explicitly talks about an increase from 2009, and that it’s the largest increase of vehicle fatalities.

Modern cars have significantly larger blind spots than cars from 2009, which is part of what they’re suggesting is the cause.

I’ve also seen other reports pointing out that the taller hood height is more likely to kill a pedestrian, rather than just injure them, in the case of a collision

As a real developer…

I just remember that airplanes have “reboot the plane every 51 days” to prevent an overflow from crashing the plane in their maintenance manuals

So, like, yours can be improved, but it’s not safety critical like other reboot requirements…

Only if you installed the package needrestart

nvidia has HDMI 2.1 last I checked.

They can do it because their driver (even nvidia “open”) is a proprietary blob

On-device routing and the map rendering is way faster in CoMaps.

OsmAnd has way more features.

If you just need basic navigation, I tend to go to CoMaps

Fedora has a Gnome Shell extension that adds Fedora over the wallpaper.

Shouldn’t be hard to make your dreams a reality

Pop_OS put in a patch that required you to create a file /etc/apt/break-my-system and Debian added a flag instead.

My point was if someone is going to blindly follow an instruction to type that, they’re just as likely to blindly follow an instruction to touch /etc/apt/break-my-system or an instruction to add --allow-remove-essential

The Gnome software GUI, what the average user would use, didn’t allow it.

KDE realized Discover would have allowed it (after a warning), so that was fixed

The GUI wouldn’t let him break it, so he tried the command line.

The command line required him to type, with punctuation “Yes, do as I say!” after a big warning.

If an average user will do that, the “fix” of needing to create a file before being able to type “Yes, do as I say!” isn’t going to change anything

Valve doesn’t have stocks

The fucking gas lighting in this response

Google provides more assistance to open source software projects than almost any other organization, and these debates are more likely to drive away potential sponsors than to attract them

“We ran AI that may or may not have found a legitimate issue, and you’re not looking into it for us fast enough. That’s going to drive away new volunteers that we need”
