  • This sort of reminds myself on the discussion on "what is a women". Is Siri a women? Many might say so, but t the same time Siri is not even human.

    The question on how old the person on a specific generated image might be and if it even depicts a person at all, can only be answered through society. There is no scientific or any logical answer for this.

    So this will always have grey areas and differing opinions and can be rulings in different cultures.

    In the end it is about discussions about ethics not logic.

  • When the debate revolved around Emacs vs. Vim, I used Spacemacs. It seem we moved on from that?

    Is it now about VScode vs. (Neo)Vim?

    Guess that means Vim won the Emacs vs. Vim debate then, when it got into the next round.

  • Why would wheelchair bound people have to pay so much more to get car they can use, when they can pay the same price as everyone else for a ticket to ride with public transportation?

    Also there are blind and other handicapped people that can easily ride public transport on their own, but would have to rely on others to ride with their own car.

    Public transport is especially useful for the handicapped and elderly compared to personal cars.

  • I guess monotheistic religions just have in common that everyone believes in their own truth, and instead of accepting the differences, feel the need to go to war over it.

    Maybe all those religions need to be banned, and only allow heno- or polytheistic ones. Especially the polytheistic religions seem much more exciting. But of course it is much more difficult to control the common folk with those.

  • Well, that could have been fixed by booting from an usb stick, chrooting into you real system and either downloading and (re)installing the python package this way, or, if your package manager depends on python, download the package in the Live Linux and extracting the python package into your system, and then reinstalling it, so the package management overwrites your "manual installation".

    Could be tedious, but less so that having to reinstall everything IMO.

  • It is more about being lazy.

    In most cases, where you havn't destroyed your filesystem, you can just boot another Linux from a USB stick, mount your filesystems to /mnt, chroot into it, and then investigate and fix there.

    See the Archlinux wiki, even if you do not use Archlinux, it is great: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Chroot

  • No no no! When you break something in Linux systems you fix it. Starting over and reinstalling everything is what you do when you mess up on Windows.

  • TBH, buying a cheap Chinese burner phone with no security relevant data on it just for traveling to the US, might be better security wise than buying an expensive Google Pixel Phone with GrapheneOS on it.

    Especially now where Google, a US company and bound by its laws, that produces these devices, might (start) hand(ing) out backdoor keys to their hardware.

  • I suppose some of that comes down to the personal understanding of what "smart" is.

    I guess you could call some person, that doesn't understand a topic, but still manages to sound reasonable when talking about it, and might even convince people that they actually have a deep understanding of that topic, "smart", in a kind of "smart imposter".

  • I thought that MinIO is a Open-Source S3 implementation, which you can just install on your own system. S3 is a "protocol" here IIUC.

    Is your complaint that they are using the S3 protocol, because it was invented and is controlled by AWS?

    Or that some services might use it without MinIO, directly on AWS?

  • The title of this post is "Self-Driving Tesla Crashes into Wall Painted to Look Like a Road… Just Months Before Planned Robotaxi Launch". In order to know that someone was sitting in the car, you have to watch the video.

  • We are never recovering as a Nation from this. This kind of violation of the order of law in our nation will take a century to heal if not more. The United States as it was is gone, full stop.

    Well, that is the goal. I think the goal is to create a (US/global) crisis, which allows the powerful (rich) to step in to reshape the society, to fit their agenda better.

    I do not think that the Trump administration is simply incompetent, I think they are having a plan, and are executing it and what we see is part of it.

  • I am a bit disappointed to not see the Tesla crash into a real wall. I feel a bit click baited here.

    Also, they prepared the polystyrene wall to break this cartoonishly, but still played on being surprised.

  • What makes implementation so difficult is that browsers cannot just "work", they need to be correct in what they do. And support all websites.

    The standards of HTML, CSS and JS have developed over a long time, not only is the amount of stuff massive, over time sometimes strange features where implemented, that were then used by website developers, and now these all need to be handled correctly by all new browsers.

    Emulating and reimplementing existing stuff is often more difficult, especially if you cannot leave out any feature, no matter how obscure, because that might break someone's website.

  • Do You Guys Not Have Phones?

  • "the middle class" does not exist, they should focus on helping the homeless, jobless and working class.

  • But as long as they are RISC V chips, then they would run the same software as any other RISC V chips.

    Not necessarily, RISC-V is permissibly licensed, so they could add proprietary extensions, that would make the binaries or even compilers only work with their implementation of the RISC-V ISA.

    Embrace, Extend, Extinguish tactics would work on RISC-V, and I trust billionaires and huge corporations to enshittify it.

    Big player joins RISC-V, creates design, introduces proprietary extensions, builds compilers that use them, software depend on them, other RISC-V designers need to license them, because the whole platform now depends on them.

    Also based on how complicate it is to port Linux to different SoCs, which at least share a common ISA, it will be much more difficult if you need to support even more RISC-V ISAs with different proprietary extensions, not only in the kernel, but in the toolchain as well.

  • So a bit like extending Mozilla Application Suite aka Seamonkey instead of focusing on standalone products?
