As someone who always drip filter, I was confused through most of this post failing to understand it was about coffee. At some point I considered whether it was about bra sizes.
I don’t know, but as I get older I find it more and more silly when I see marketing naming things (wsl still takes the cake). For the record today was the first ever I heard about k cup for coffee or bra.
You can be all three at the same time!
Jokes apart, how would you prevent trolls and shills from trolling and shilling?
We already have a problem where real accounts get stolen because they have a history so it’s harder to be flagged as bots. And one person can open multiple accounts in multiple networks. Hell, Facebook forces people to have phone numbers and there’s still so many bots and shills there.
I don’t want this to sound like a straw man, I think there’s so many ways for bots to happen that it’s like playing wack a mole.
It doesn’t hurt that Ubuntu is from South Africa. Other Linux companies that I know of may be European like Suse but they’re derived from Red hat who’s an American company. Ubuntu comes from Debian which I think is not a company?
So… Windows is an ad delivery system.hmm, it makes sense, because as an operating system that’s the only thing it does well is show ads.
How much does an OEM windows cost these days?
I quite like their laptops but they put the most horrible keyboards I’ve ever used. I’ve had chronic rsi and my fingers physically hurt less than 8h of use.
Do they have high end laptops (32g RAM, top i7 or similar, for Android development) at reasonable prices with good keyboards? I’ve been on Xps for a while.

Are you saying this is a Borg from the original enterprise from Kirk? Or do we have to go back further 2 centuries to the space shuttle Enterprise, the one from 1980’s NASA?
I’m not super familiar with Apple as I am with Android so take what I talk about iOS with a grain of salt, and Macos with a shovel of salt.
Android permission model is a bag of different layers, and some specific permissions have shifted to more strict layers over the years. For example, in the beginning all apps had a private space that other normal apps could never get into, and public space that everyone would be able to read and write provided they made such “request” at download time. For some time after that I think they moved it to next level, so you " requested" that both at download time AND with a pop up to the user. Currently you have to do all that AND not be a normal app and fill some forms and Google has to agree with you.
Camera, microphone and GPS has been for a long time in the middle tier of requesting at download time and with pop up, for both Android and iOS. But I think not on Mac os, and certainly not on Linux, with the exception of browsers, that have their own security models rolled up on top of whatever their os imposes, since they execute code from total strangers every time you open a page for the first time.
Some permissions like send and receive Internet data are still in the lightest tier, only asked at download time, for both Android and iOS.
I recently wanted to put my Linux obsidian without Internet access, and had to learn how to do that with a script that calls bwrap that in its turn calls obsidian. I wasn’t comfortable otherwise, because I wanted the freedom to run as many community plugins as I wanted, and this is strangers javascript code running in my machine, and I didn’t want it accessing random folders and uploading things.
If I ran vscode I’d do the same, since I’m not familiar with the vetting process for its plugins. Same for gimp, but I never needed plugins in it.
That’s great bit of history
It may be useful for people reading if you could add headers about when each decade starts, since you have many of them there
Just start all chats telling it to behave like your favorite character, like the guy above did with GladOS. Genius move.
You can also just tell your favorite one to do that, if that’s what you’re after or have a really bad GPU.
LM studio is the most stable and user friendly that I’ve found by far, but try to download a model that fits inside your GPU or else the model will be super slow or crash.
Wow I need my CO pilot do this while I’m coding. If I’ve got to suffer with bad code at least I’ll get some giggles.
If history is the best way to predict the future, current Republicans will be ashamed of future Republicans, but in private. In public they’ll play along.

Well we had 3d TVs 10 years ago
What do you mean by normal sleep and pretty well? My XPS isn’t that old and it drinks from battery while sleeping quite fast, 12h and 50% goes down.
My older Dell laptop only drains 1-2% per hour on normal sleep which is also not acceptable, I can’t leave it like that over the weekend.
Nobody’s mentioning putting laptops into deep sleep where no battery power is being used.
Well they’re clearly not using Arch. Btw.
