And native software.
Because JavaScript runs everywhere, we have companies creating “apps” and PC “programs” that are little more than glorified web views. There’s normally nothing wrong with having shared code across implementations, but when that shared code is a 4 MB bundle of crap that creates 100s of MB in dictionaries and JIT compiler caches, you’re ruining the end-user experience.
They make entire SOCs. None of them are x86 because of the duopoly that Intel and AMD have thanks to their cross-licensing agreement, but they still have functional CPUs with a common ISA.
AMD: “Our partners will fry your expensive CPU on some boards.”
INTEL: “Our software will fry your expensive CPU on all boards.”
He wants to allow AI slime on his own platform
Don’t forget the blatant scams called crypto games! He proudly announced Epic Games Store would happily sell games centered around NFTs and crypto after Valve said they wouldn’t allow it.
Many Mods are high on “authority” and ban for incredibly asinine reasons
The recent drama around r/art exemplifies this.
Title isn’t the whole story.
Intern won $400 GPU in a raffle while on a business trip paid for by the employer. The employer decides it’s their property because they paid for the trip, and the intern disagrees. The employer essentially tells them to GTFO, the intern resigns in response.
What’s next?
Need I go on?
No, no. It makes perfect sense from an investment standpoint. Their actual target audience would love to be able to pay for access to that catalog.
Company profiting from allowing pedos to groom children enacts steps to prevent pedos from grooming children? Like that’s going to happen.
Whatever solution they come up with, I can guarantee that it “accidentally” has a loophole in it.
“Neither” is also an acceptable answer.
Agreed. The call trace shows it occurred as part of a drm_ function, which is related to the DRM (Direct Rendering Manager) subsystem.
There’s a chance it might not be the root cause, but the more obvious answer is that the Nvidia driver managed to corrupt a kernel data structure.
Please fill in the blanks:
The other reason is that I’m kinda verbose.
Some say, “why many words when few work?”
Others express their freedom to choose exactly to what extent of verbosity and verbiage they consider necessary in order to accurately and effectively communicate their previously-unspoken thoughts either through private correspondence or statements to some subset of the general populace.
“Keeping users safe on Android is our top priority,” Android president Sameer Samat wrote on X. “Scammers rely on anonymity to scale their attacks. Right now, if we block a bad app, they can often just create a new app and try again. Verification stops this “whack-a-mole” cycle by requiring a real identity – making it much harder and costlier to repeatedly distribute harmful apps.
So, you’re actually going to put an effort in stopping people from publishing malware through the Play Store, right?
Right?
Contrary to popular belief, it is possible to write software in assembly that is very readable. It takes thought but assembly has the edge with its miniscule footprint and zero-dependency runtime.

I agree with them when they say distros shouldn’t be theming their apps by default. When the packager breaks a package, it misleadingly gives users the impression that the software is at fault. Unless the distro itself is willing to field all the user complaints and bug reports, it just ends up causing problems for the maintainers.
Where I will never agree with them is in the demand that the developer has exclusive control over the application icon. It’s inconsequential to the software’s functionality, and if anyone thinks their brand should have more rights to a computer than the person who owns it, they can rightfully fuck off with the likes of Apple and Microsoft.
App Icons are the identity of an app. Changing an app’s icon denies the developer the possibility to control their brand.
Here’s an novel solution to that: fuck off! A lot of us use Linux because we’re sick of corporations and rightsholders trying to control how we use our devices while treating us as marketing tools by shoving their “vision” in our face.
Everybody else already covered his role in Tesla, so let’s look at something else that demonstrates his concern for the environment and his fellow species:
He has a datacenter in Memphis running 35 “temporary” methane generators to power Grok, the self-described “Mecha Hitler” AI. All but a dozen of them are being used without permits for permanent generators, and none of them have air pollution filtration systems installed. Oh, and it’s near a low-income community that was already plagued by air pollution.
