Fascinating article. However, whats up with that sentence about reposting and world war 2?

The most important part of the article:

However, as MyDrivers also notes, Geekbench entries for the Lisuan 7G100 series—featuring 32 compute units and only 256MB of VRAM—suggest performance roughly comparable to older GPUs such as the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti released about 13 years ago and the AMD Radeon R9 370 from around a decade ago.

So no AAA gaming yet. Or AA gaming. Or AI. Or much of anything graphically intensive really, with 256MB of VRAM.

Still, more Competition is always good. I wouldnt exactly call those stats competitive yet though.

What im especially interested in is if they open source their drivers.

Edit: Apparently it has 12GB of VRAM, those stats were wrong.

Sounded really interresting until I saw that this thing was vibecoded.

Imagine something as potentially destructive as software for wiping and installing an OS being AI generated!

Headline: Were about to simulate a human brain!!!!!

Cited professor in the same article: "We cant make simulations of the brain".

Amazing Journalism.

My problem with it, is thats its even less open source than android is, even after all the enshittification. If they were serious with their anti big tech approach, they would open source it, then Sailfish OS would be a real alternative.

I would greatly prefer a simple calc software/website that you give a model to and it tells you how it would run, but I suppose in the era of vibecoding, making small, functional, well designed software has become a distant dream.

(and the readme tells you to curl and execute a shell script? no thanks)

moonlight/sunshine is really good, i heavily recommend it! You can also use it as a teamviewer alternative, but at the moment it requires some light fiddling to open ports etc. so its not really easy enough for "grandma downloads sunshine to get tech support from you" yet.

Keine Angst, die SIN gibts schon bei uns. Nennt sich eID. Und was auch immer wir verwenden werden müssen um uns im Internet auszuweisen wenn dann die Jugendsperre für Online Plattformen kommt.

What licenses are these? I only found apache licenses for the stuff they released. But yes, it kinda looks like open washing, since it looks like keet is open source, but its not.

Yeah, I saw that too, that not the full source code. I found another repository for the android releases: https://github.com/holepunchto/keet-mobile-releases

Again, no source code, just binaries. Rather shady I think...

A thats cool. I used it for a while as a skype(hah!) alternative, but call quality is very low and it has no noise cancelling. Chat works though.

Jami is nice in theory, but it was very buggy for me when I tried it and Jami calls had no noise cancelling at all. Other than that, it does work.

I cant find the "keet" git repo, I think its proprietary. So thats a no go for privacy.

Didnt tox development stop a while ago?

No idea. I use the app Conversations (XMPP+Omemo) and it works great. Only downside ist that you have to somewhat trust the server you are on, because of metadata. But thats basically every chat app.

kinda reads like an advertisement for these heat vision binoculars.

The only DE I know that does that, is enlightenment. I really miss that feature...

This is really great, dont tell this to anyone!

They are still releasing more parts of the Epstein files!

Take the advice of Napoleon: Never interrupt the enemy while they are making a mistake!

You can also use kdeconnect for filesharing in your home network, an it has a whole bunch of other features like mouse control emulation and remote multimedia control and such.

Yeah, I hope someone makes an engine based on this, that seems like a really important step that is currently missing completely.
