Wow, this violates privacy! You mean this scans for nearby devices? Completely exposing nearby consumers of those devices? Totally illegal

If a discharge pipe is traced back to a company - and it is discharging unsafe levels or typically unexpected chemicals - then it should be on that company to get their waste water into a manageable condition.
Just because a municipal/council/whatever has above average water processing, doesn’t mean companies get a free pass to abuse it


Yes but the problem is that people keep submitting the same bug again and again and again. Some bugs exist because they haven’t been spotted, but there’s a heckton of bugs that are known about, but no-one has been able to put forward a fix for them yet. Overloading people with duplicate reports just means that they have less time and brainspace available to spend on fixing bugs.
Duplicates don’t add anything to the conversation


Yeh, I realise now I misinterpreted an article I read


Ah, ok. I must’ve misinterpreted an article I was reading then. Thanks for the clarification!


Pretty sure they wrote the AGPL licence
Edit:
They didn’t


Does “9GW data center” not mean “a data center that consumes 9GW of power”?
Or is it “9GW of computers + 5GW of cooling + something”?


Or, the bill fails.
But all of its objectives get packaged attached to other bills that are actually required to be passed.
So you get some random bill about the shape of car exhausts which suddenly requires OS providers to verify users ages


Yeh, AI as an assistant/tool. Not as a replacement


2026 Debian Vs 2001 windows?
Or 2001 Debian Vs 2001 windows?
Cause 2001 Debian 2.2 was like 4MB ram, maybe 16 if you are really going for it!

So yeh, let’s continue comparing apples and oranges.
FreeRTOS is bloatware cause we were able to orbit a sphere that could reflect radio waves with a bunch of tubes and a handful of germanium.
What the fuck is this “windows xp Vs modern Debian” shit?


But maybe they have the lowest crash rate?
So like, crashes cost money right? Someone is responsible. Someone has to pay.
But if everyone dies in an inferno, then nobody is responsible. Who can pay? They’re all dead! What medical bills? What repairs? It’s all a write off.
Sounds like a high mortality rate with low accident rate is an absolute profitable win!
Free market baby!


When ctrl+v is disabled to “prevent brute force bots” or something ridiculous


Yeh, I have passkeys in bitwarden.
I get it. Once they become ubiquitous, you click “login” your password manager prompts you to select account, and you are in.
No password that can be leaked, incorrectly stored, brute forced.
Corporations can pre-register company service passkeys for new users.
It’s like mTLS, except staged.


It works out as O(regex^n)


IDK. It puts them at the forefront of this fight.
If governments successfully prosecute distro maintainers (if they can) for this, then distro maintainers are liable.
And distro maintainers would then have to pursue non-compliant users to cover that liability, or fold.
Which is a huge loss for open source.
Or, there would be a huge legal fight and it turns out that the licence of a distro protects it from its users actions.
Which would be awesome and a massive win. It also makes sense. Nobody is suing an OS maintainer because it was used for a data breach.
And then the governments have to pursue the actual users. Which… is gonna be useless wrt these laws
As part of the “climbing out of the ground” cutscene, the demon roars with firey breath… Which burns off the scarf.


It’s actually Teams Copilot for Office now


Discord is going to be the age-verification-service for gaming, if they can get laws to follow fast enough.
They have the gaming community, they have chats/friends/DMs/VoIP.
If they release a dev toolkit that implements in-game chat, in-game VoIP, friends list and age verification… All while not being tied to steam? Imagine if they offered a system for in-game purchases and gifting purchases to friends (oh yeh https://gam3s.gg/news/discord-adds-in-app-purchases-for-in-game-items/ )
They are positioning themselves to offer a huge range of features, easy navigation of legal minefields, and no distribution-platform tie-in - while also offering out-of-game functionality of all of that (likely leading to player retention for games that leverage it properly).
They are positioning themselves to be a market-leader/industry-standard for game social networks. Everyone that has ever used discord is the product they are selling, and they are now releasing the features and tools for companies to leverage that.


I hear the 3rd best is tomorrow, and that fits with my energy levels
The first play part is setting up arbitrary (in this case, player-entered) code execution.
The 2nd part is entering the arbitrary code to be executed.
The 3rd part is the arbitrary code being executed.
From the description:
Tool-assisted meaning a program entering the data into the game. A lot of times tool-assisted is in the context of a speed run, a TAS (tool-assisted speedrun).
A TAS file can be shared and perfected by many people, and reflects the most optimised way to finish a game as fast as possible.
Sometimes TAS runs include techniques that are “TAS only”, an extreme example being alternating between left & right every frame for 30 seconds. Sometimes these “TAS only” techniques end up being performed by actual speed runners. And some TAS runs are “Human viable” as in “no techniques used that can’t be executed by a speed runner”.
Some TAS systems can interface with an actual console, pretending to be a controller (called “TAS Bot” I believe). Generally, they run the game in an emulator or interface with an emulator.
So, this video is about a TAS (well, the tool-assisted part, not necessarily the speedrun part) setting up arbitrary code execution (ACE) that then executes a bunch of user-entered code, which is what happens in the rest of the video
