  • Released: NVIDIA 555.42.02 Linux Beta Brings Wayland Explicit Sync, GSP Firmware

    Jump

  • By some definition. They have always been usable to some degree because I think animators or something use Linux commercially on Nvidia, and for gpgpu they are still top class on linux (nothing comes close)

    They haven't always been the best for gaming or desktop (Wayland) use though, since Intel and AMD opened up their drivers.

    Arguably in my experience Nvidia has been far less buggy for the last 30+ years on x11, and with this change they may have finally reached parity on Wayland, haven't tried it myself.

  • New Teslas might lose Steam

    Jump

  • I never wait around while the car is charging (generally only charge at home), but this has been useful for waiting to board a ferry, actually being in the car on a ferry, and waiting for road closures to clear.

    I also do have a steam deck, and this is basically the same thing but with a bigger screen.

  • What laptop do you use/recommend?

    Jump

  • I updated my AMD framework BIOS using fwupd last weekend with no problem on arch.

  • Removed

    Searching for good news sources

    Jump

  • Just never read the comments.

  • Composerize - online tool converts docker commands to compose yml

    Jump

  • I guess it's finally to the point where selfhosters can admit to using k8s and not be bombarded by comments saying it's overkill, which has happened in the past for:

    • Self hosting at all
    • Using VMs
    • Using containers
    • Using docker compose
    • Using k8s (⬅️ I guess we are here)
    • Using helm charts or whatever ends up replacing this

    Anyway, I believe there is a tool also to turn docker compose files into k8s manifests if we want to take this a step further!

  • ‘Mamma Mia!’ Stage Star Sara Poyzer Replaced By AI On BBC Show To Recreate Voice Of Dying Person — Update

    Jump

  • Depending on this poster's age, this statement could have very opposite meanings.

  • Self-Destructing Chips: Researchers Unveil Techniques to Thwart Sophisticated Cyberattacks

    Jump

  • Still, having this option can't be a bad thing. Ultimately it's an engineer (or PM I suppose) that decides to use this chip based on the product requirements.

    Sometimes you want to fail closed, or purposefully fail catastrophically if some constraints aren't met.

  • What's a entertainment franchise (movies, games, etc) that has been milked but still puts out good products?

    Jump

  • I suppose if you really like tools, Makita counts as an entertainment franchise.

  • Hands up if you want to volunteer for layoffs, IBM tells staff

    Jump

  • This doesn't contradict what the OP said. ChatGPT is now an interface to both an LLM and a diffusion-based image generator.

  • Google has replaced the Google Assistant app on Android with Gemini by default

    Jump

  • Yes, I ask it random things like "is X food dog safe" or how many g of protein is in whatever food.

    Or even general knowledge stuff like "how do covalent bonds work"

  • Microsoft's Pricey AI Assistant Copilot Leaves Early Adopters Feeling Cheated

    Jump

  • I mean didn't we all do this when phones started autocompleting sentences like a decade ago? (Or however long it was, time perception is fickle)

  • Basht, a tui file manager bash script that supports image previews (among other features)

    Jump

  • Kitty supports images, not sure about alacritty, although there are many competing protocols for image display in a terminal emulator, so it could be that it just doesn't support a particular program.

  • Microsoft in their infinite wisdom has replaced the Hide Desktop icon with Copilot.

    Jump

  • I think you're confusing a window manager with a tiling window manager.

  • Bluesky and Mastodon users are having a fight that could shape the next generation of social media

    Jump

  • I don't know all the details, but isn't it set up to be some type of not for profit corporation to prevent that? Though I guess OpenAI is also not profit, but I was hoping it'd be more like Signal to stave off enshittification

  • What application do you use to rdp into your Linux machine from you mobile (android)

    Jump

  • I use sunshine and moonlight. It's designed for games but works far better because of it, as in if it's good enough for games, the latency will be far better than other RDP protocols.

    It doesn't do clipboard sharing though.

  • What Linux "Productivity" (ideally FOSS) tools do you use?

    Jump

  • I've recently started replacing most of my shell usage with org mode and babel, along with GitHub copilot and similar LLM backed tools it's like autocomplete on steroids

  • KDE Goes and Does It (Double-Click By Default, That Is) - OMG! Linux

    Jump

  • Drag a selection box around it, or use ctrl. Or right click.

  • I'm amazed at FreeCAD's abilities. It needs a better name. Thinking of it as simply "cad software" like calling a 2-GHz computer in your pocket a "phone".

    Jump

  • Spreadsheet

    Curious to hear what it's like making parts with a spreadsheet. Is it like coding?

    I use openscad a lot, and just tried using spreadsheets -- adding parameters to each property in a part still seems really clunky, compared to editing a scad file in Emacs, which I vastly prefer, especially now that there's AI code autocomplete.

  • open source pdf editor for linux based os?

    Jump

  • What kind of edits are we talking? Firefox can add signatures and text now in its built-in pdf reader.
