Hello, tone-policing genocide-defender and/or carnist 👋

Instead of being mad about words, maybe you should think about why the words bother you more than the injustice they describe.

Have a day!

  • Why GrapheneOS is Almost Impossible to Crack (Forensic Teams Have Tried)

    跳过

  • On #3: every modern phone running encryption has a BFU (before-first-unlock) state where the data on the device is more secure than after its first unlock because you haven't entered your password/PIN to decrypt the data. GrapheneOS also has this, but it is not unique to GOS.

  • Can the Steam Deck/Machine also be used for streaming?

    跳过

  • Yes. I use SteamOS and Bazzite (I have multiple TVs with different computers for this) with Steam Big Picture mode as my sole streaming interface. Here are some decent Linux apps for various streaming services:

    Just add those as "non-steam games" and you're mostly good to go. For some apps, like Jellyfin, you need to enable keyboard navigation (a.k.a. "gamepad controls").

    Get yourself one of these if you'd like a mostly seamless remote control experience (depending on how well each streaming app/wrapper works with keyboard/gamepad navigation). Easily the best $25 I ever spent.

  • Progress Report: Linux 6.18 - Asahi Linux

    跳过

  • Mic support for M2s just leaves one thing that I miss on Asahi: running the display at 120Hz.

    The Asahi team is doing an amazing job turning Apple hardware into my favorite Linux device!

  • Fresh Launches as a New Terminal-First Text Editor

    跳过

  • "Contributor" with the second greatest number of commits is Claude 🤡

    DOA.

  • GCC Developers Considering Whether To Accept AI/LLM-Generated Patches

    跳过

  • Don't.

  • What do you think of the TV show Pluribus? (From a vegan perspective)

    跳过

  • In the show,

    John Cena

    says something to the effect of:

    "there are still cows, which need to be milked" 🤡

    Why do they need to be milked? Are you still raping them? Picking an apple is considered harmful, but raping animals, stealing their young, and then their sustenance is totally fine?

    The show basically requires you to be a bloodmouth for that to make sense, which is annoying. If you ignore that giant plot hole, it's pretty interesting though.

  • Thinking about switching from fish to bash + extensions

    跳过

  • I just wrap bash snippets in bash -c '<snippet goes here>' and I have a great time with Fish that way.

  • I had enough of big tech and their actions, so created this guide to make switching as easy as possible

    跳过

  • Zig: Migrating from GitHub to Codeberg

    跳过

  • Your move, Rust. I'd love to see it happen.

  • Steam Machine – Powerful Enough?

    跳过

  • I hope you're right. Games have run like dogshit for at least the past 5 years or so, even with reasonably powerful hardware.

    Unfortunately, I'm not very optimistic because of the Unreal Engine monoculture (except for a bunch of blessed indie games) in the gaining industry. It would most likely be Epic's job to make their engine not perform like shit, which... 😬

  • Google boss says trillion-dollar AI investment boom has 'elements of irrationality'

    跳过

  • Good. LLMs are a fucking blight on the world and every company that pushes that dogshit deserves to implode.

  • People are playing fewer games and new releases are "struggling", say Ubisoft UK, warning of falling revenues

    跳过

  • Valid :) I wouldn't either.

  • People are playing fewer games and new releases are "struggling", say Ubisoft UK, warning of falling revenues

    跳过

  • They should try making good games and putting them on Steam and GOG and not their shitty launcher.

    It's so satisfying watching one of the worst actors in the gaming industry eat shit and die. I hope Activision, EA, and the other purveyors of overpriced, malware-laden, microtransaction slopware can meet the same fate one day too.

  • A Practical Guide to Transitioning to Memory-Safe Languages - Turning off the spigot of vulnerabilities: a new strategy for memory safety

    跳过

  • Zig isn't memory safe by default. Safety needs to be opted-in to, which isn't free.

    And merely recompiling C projects with the (very good) Zig toolchain wouldn't add any form of memory safety whatsoever as far as I'm aware. You can get some safety checks that way, but you still have to fix the buggy C code manually, which is a nontrivial task in best-case scenarios.

  • Rust Coreutils 0.4 Boosts GNU Compatibility to 85%

    跳过

  • If you're expecting stability for any Ubuntu release, that went out the window when Canonical started forcing Snaps.

    But non-LTS Ubuntu releases have always been a testing ground for less-than-stable changes. uutils is just one of them, and the only way to make them stable is to see how they're being used in the wild.

  • Google will let ‘experienced users’ keep sideloading Android apps, even from unverified developers.

    跳过

  • Again: Google would not be doing this if there was no perceived benefit for them. If it was merely a matter of adding a scarier warning, then what purpose does the new "student/hobbyist" account type that restricts the number of devices your app can be installed on serve??

  • Google will let ‘experienced users’ keep sideloading Android apps, even from unverified developers.

    跳过

  • The headline is incomplete to an extent that it's dishonest because it doesn't reflect the reality of what Google is saying.

    Google will only allow "experienced users" to "continue" sideloading with the new, draconian restrictions that Google will be the arbiter of. "Continue" implies that sideloading will continue as it is in its currently acceptable form. However, that is not the case. If it were, Google would not be changing anything at all because there would be no perceived benefit for them doing so.

    So in a way, yes, the entire article is wrong, because it doesn't adequately push back on the premise that it implies and instead uncritically parrots what Google would prefer people to believe, which is that people that want to sideload their apps and use third-party app stores like F-Droid will not be negatively impacted, which is not true.

  • Google will let ‘experienced users’ keep sideloading Android apps, even from unverified developers.

    跳过

  • It's not FUD. The "install unknown apps" toggle already does what you're describing. Whatever the intentionally vague blurbs from Google imply, whatever the new toggle ends up being will be worse.

    And that doesn't account for the need they're creating for a "student/hobbyist" account that Google is creating. If you use such an account, your app can only be installed on a limited number of devices, which Google will control.
