Any word on the next generation of matrix math acceleration hardware? Is anything currently getting integrated into the kernel? Where are the gource branches looking interesting for hardware pulls and merges?

How do you feel about yourself? Do you like to be around you in an abstract sense?

Having all that heat in a laptop sucks bad. Maybe if a person is super into gaming and in a dorm or something they might use one for gaming. The really capable laptop GPUs like a 16GB all but negate the benefits of a laptop. The battery life is terrible, the noise is annoying, and the heat is everywhere, like blowing around the keys onto your hand. Plus you have an even more obscure hardware chain with modern laptops having all kinds of closed source and poorly supported nonsense that sucks.

Your thermals are tied between the CPU and GPU in a laptop. If either is over loaded thermally both will throttle. There are also a lot more thermal interrupt states in a laptop GPU. If anyone tries to hack around with these to push them past their inbuilt safety margins while following guides that are intended for the desktop GPU version of the hardware it can easily lead to failure.

The only real reason to get a gaming laptop is if you travel a lot, if you’re extremely space restricted like sharing a bedroom with someone, or if you’re disabled and need the ergonomics for a specific reason.

I don’t see how any aspect mentioned is regional in nature.

Also pager related fatalities in 2023.

Thanks so much for all these details. I wouldn’t have seen the info otherwise.

I know this is not technically the right place to mention, but why not whitelist a USB connection like whatever the equivalent to a /udev rule is in Android? It certainly doesn’t bother me to unlock my device, to then plug in USBC headphones if that is the easiest setup and interface for users.

The use case I am thinking of is while riding a bicycle. I’ve ripped my helmet off in a hurry many times to avoid a bee sting. Stuff like that tends to unplug headphones. Or like comminuting home as it gets dark and I throw on a jacket and need to unplug and get situated. I’ll have to unplug with half damp gloves. I’m probably not going to get it unlocked without taking off my glove. Again, it is no big deal. It would be nice though if there was an advance option to whitelist a specific vendor ID and device ID, either by entering it manually or a more streamlined way of capturing the info after the device has been mounted.

Thanks for all the work you folks do!

What is the story on all the porn shorts attributed to RE?

It was things said in the comments of that post and reading between the lines. I think the change is inevitable and already decided. The main active admin of .world is working on sublinks. That is enough for me to view time spent on building community on .world as a waste. If it was the other way around and they were coding in Rust and the Lemmy base was in js or whatever, maybe I’d think differently, but everything I’ve seen is a massive red flag saying sinking ship, or at least I’m on the wrong ship and regret the time spent there now. A lot of people left already. I have my other accounts, but had never made a .ml until recently in an attempt to start making sure communities were shared across larger instances, but I guess it was well timed to make the shift.

It was MASSIVELY disappointing to see .world go down the path of announcing the intentions of instability with unnecessary change. It was the single most damaging move possible for Lemmy all because of stupid people’s anti community politics and people that can’t figure out Rust as far as I can tell.

I can’t move my comments and history with me to another instance; only my settings and subscriptions follow.

Sublinks. You whine and make excuses but didn’t make pull requests with good code, and now you are trying to tank the largest instance. Very Spez move of you.

I want nothing to do with your casus belli

Roku just announced they are going out of business the slow way.

Steamdeck is a company innovating and putting money into full time devs improving and building a community and ecosystem. This has long term value. Everyone else is trying to privateer (legal piracy) on the backs of Valve using marketing nonsense and contract manufacturing. The only full time employees involved are the warehouse staff. It is not even a choice.

I honestly love the way Alexandrite does the interface on Lemmy.world. I used photon for awhile too, but the way Alexandrite does voting made a positive overall experience that was more pleasant long term, (a.Lemmy.world & p.lemmy.world). Alexandrite simply ignores the down vote count and displays the total. Overall negativity is not clearly seen unless the count goes below zero.

Long term this makes a more positive overall experience across the spectrum of emotions in real life, especially for someone struggling through disability. The only way I would change this is to add a negative vote view in the … extras.

You likely have secure boot and a Microsoft package key installed in UEFI. They likely did what they are supposed to do and removed the unsigned software.

You must either sign your own UEFI keys using the options in your bootloader that may or may not be present, or you must use a distro that has the m$ signed secure boot shim key. These are the only ways for both m$ and Linux to coexist. Indeed, with a shim key (Fedora/Ubuntu) you can easily have a windows partition on the same drive without issues.

Secure boot is a scheme to steal hardware ownership. Of course they say it is not because the standard specifies a mechanism to sign your own keys. However the standard specification is only a guideline and most consumer grade implementations do not allow custom key generation and signing.

If you need to do your own keys, search for the US defense department’s guide on the subject. It is by far the most comprehensive explanation of the system and how to set it up correctly. They have a big motivation to prevent corporate data stalking type nonsense and make this kind of documentation accessible publicly.

If your bootloader does not allow custom keys, there is a little known tool called Keytool that allows you to boot directly into UEFI and supposedly change the keys regardless of the implemented utility in the bootloader. I have never tried this myself. The only documentation I have found was from Gentoo, but their documentation assumes a very high level of competence.

I would use OpenWRT documentation to get an idea of low level mechanisms and paths. This looks like a rabbit hole but your answer is probably somewhere around here and is just setting an alias somewhere:
