First time? Just open the rear door, get inside snugle to the left, open door, exit. Leave the doors open for the next person, while your buddy walks right over the hood.

Jokes aside, been guilty of this quite a few times. Sorry about that. In my defence, this was almost always due to a senile intersection design.

If you have to ask, then there’s no reason not to. It’s people who tinker with their systems that encounter issues with it, or more often random annoyances that add up over tme to those memes.

Yeah, voice chat is all we need.

Or better yet, host your own TeamSpeak server.

Speaking of which, are there any decent FOSS alternatives? Discord got banned in my homecountry and forcing it through VPN or proxy is a total pain in the ass. Forced my friends to move to TS as that’s what we used back in the day… like a decade ago, but maybe there’s something modern and more open nowadays?

Arent they like $100/yr a pop? Thats less than what adobe charges for photoshop.

Any BSD folk 'round here?

That’s just the normal state of Russian economy

It’s not. I carry one(mix 3s) as a pocket laptop for when Im going out but might need to do some work urgently and also as a lightweight backup in case something happens to my main laptop. For the former, it’s been great and saved me many times, but for the latter… this did once happen when I bonked the entire screen out. To say it was a painful week while waiting for the replacement would be an understatement. My back was killing me the entire time, and the thing is so underpowered it was easier to remote into that screenless pc rather than trying to launch stuff locally. And even with that, the thing whirred like crazy. It’s fine for a few minutes at a time but hearing it sll fay got annoying quick. And dont even get me started on the keyboard…

Not really. 16 gigs is like the base amount of VRAM on the new 5xxx series nvidia GPU’s, and you probably want more RAM than VRAM in your rig…

I like my men strong, generated, and at least 20 long, apparently…

Ah so it’s about the same-ish functionality as supergfxctl and system76-power it seems. For me I’m searching for more granular control. e.g. if I’m gaming with dGPU-primary I might want to move browser and such to iGPU to free up dGPU VRAM, or just to put it to lower power states because spinning this behemoth up for youtube videos seems inefficient. Otherwise, when I’m in iGPU primary, it sometimes misdetects when to activate the dGPU and chokes the poor little thing down or, again, spins up the dGPU needlessly.

Can it force apps to use iGPU when dGPU is on? It’s one of the things I miss from windows and couldn’t figure out on linux

Not really. As a programmer who doesn’t deal with math like at all, just working on overly-complicated CRUD’s, and even for me the AI is still completely wrong and/or waste of time 9 times out of 10. And I can usually spot when my colleagues are trying to use LLM’s because they submit overly descriptive yet completely fucking pointless refactors in their PR’s.

As a webdev I feel like the whole internet is dying. Everything is an app now, fully controlled by google, so privacy goes out the window, and none of it is searchable anyway as genAI made search engines toast. And everyone and their cat just seem go around blocking entire /8’s willy-nilly breaking the whole global network concept… Does anyone have any tips which career path to switch to?

Just 130%? Pfft

Trick question, cause that spartan chip ain’t an SoC by itself. Zynq is, but it has ARM core which car run linux on it’s own.

Oh shit, here we go again. Time to short alphabet stock until they bury all that AI garbage like the rest of it.

I tried to give it a piece of ~200 lines of JS I was positive there was an error in, and it tried to gaslight me into thinking there wasn’t any… I tried everything, pointed it specifically to suspicious bits, asked for breakdowns, assertions, test cases… which it then promptly copy-pasted to me straight from my own code… Took me a few hours to find, but there was, in fact, a rookie mistake in it, just hard to spot at a glance.

Nope, you can’t actually do that anymore since there’s SSL in the way. I tried anyway, though, just for giggles:

drath@machine:~$ telnet lemm.ee 80

Of course I can curl and wget, but that feels against the spirit of hardcore reading the raw data.

This is a little wrong. East canada is actually north canada, while the real east canada is sticking out in the topleft corner. Please do invade it, I beg you 🥺 🙏
