This is consistent with "Big Beautiful Bill" (the ugliest bill ever) and the "Department of Government Efficiency" (that reduced government services, while somehow costing more).
Trump probably figures there will be peace when all the people who disagree with him are dead.
When you but an nvme bcache on your spinning rust (something Windows can't do) and add fast LZO block compression (something Windows sucks at), games legitimately load much faster. You also get about 30% more games on the drive.
Then the system boots and about 1GB RAM is used by the OS and desktop. The rest is free for your game.
When Linux idles, it really idles. No background garbage. No periodic network activity. No antivirus scans. Pure computing silence.
Fire up a game, and all the hardware becomes yours. The WINE implementation has been optomised to do Windows things faster than Windows can.
At this point, the graphics drivers don't even need to be as good to run faster.
It's not even limited to old or crappy games. Helldivers 2 and Arc Raiders run flawlessly.
I'm in Australia and it still shits me to tears that I can't mathematically communicate with Americans. We just changed one day and it was done.
That said, the Australian mainland is running 5 different timezones right now. Some zones are only 30 minutes apart. We also have a little island just off the coast of Sydney where the DST shift is 30 minutes. The entire planet does an hour. We've introduced this edge case for the sake of 400 people and some stick insects.
The best thing about Motorola is that they ship with a very stock android ROM. It's also the worst bit, because there's nobody maintaining any software. Handballing software maintenance to GrapheneOS would be sweet.
There are literal street parties that have broken out in my city. It's mostly Iranian flags, but there's a few US and Israeli flags in the crowd. They are all friends tonight.
I appreciate the honesty when they say it's an AI response and not genuine knowledge.
When I tell someone "an LLM told me that..." It's usually followed by "Let's see if there's any truth to it." An AI response should always be treated as a suggestion, not an answer.
Hell, Google's AI still doesn't know which day the F1 GP is on this week. It was wrong by a whole week a while back. Now it's only off by a day.
The problem is this also blocks SMS from those outside your contacts. It will be an issue with 2FA.
I created a "Do not disturb" profile that only blocks voice calls for non-contacts. SMS still comes through. My ringtone is a silent file, but that's just my preference.
In the DND profile, I only allowed messaging apps to show notifications. I don't care about the rest.
I remember when Clarkson drove a BMW 5 series and a Prius around the test track flat-out, and they consumed similar amounts of fuel. Their labels showed the Prius was meant to use much less.
The only time my 2015 X-Trail got the advertised mileage was when I descended a mountain.
My team just recently started using copilot for PR reviews.
So far I've found that 90% of what it raises is incorrect. For the stuff it actually finds, the code suggestion to fix it is almost always wrong. It will write 20 lines of code for something that's a one-line fix.
It picked up on one reentry bug on a recursive function that I don't think another dev would have spotted.
It's definitely slowing me down. I hear about AI wasting dev's time with bogus bug reports. It's now integrated into my workflow.
I've already got SonarQube and linters which finds issues the moment I introduce them. They're doing a much better job at maintaining code quality.
