  • How?

  • I am not referring to it being a drop-in replacement. I'm referring to the fact that there are multiple supposedly-interoperable-but-not-really non-drop-in replacements is the problem. And it does affect the end user if devs find it difficult to adopt (as many do).

    Wayland is designed for ease of development for wayland designers. "We're just a protocol, the coding is left to anyone else" is the easiest way to write code. Because they decided not to write any at all.

  • well that's the problem. "I don't use it therefore it must be a bad idea"

  • How?

    Jump

  • see that's the problem. Everyone's first response is that it's a niche problem. For every complaint. So what? It's a new problem is the point, however niche.

    Btw, this is not a niche problem. Some big projects have explicitly said they have had this very problem

  • better act fast!

  • is it ddr4?

  • How?

    Jump

  • it will be refused in the name of security. Which is notreally a good argument. "it rather involved being on the other side of that airtight hatchway" type of thing

  • How?

    Jump

  • I am not better served. I am now in the quite new position where I'd have to rewrite some of my own personal software if i simply just decided to change DE

  • How?

    Jump

  • missing feature that used to be there but has been removed in the name of protecting me from myself, is an inability to customize.

  • Horse chips

    Jump

  • we eat horse (infrequently) where I'm from. If prepared properly it's delicious

  • Maybe there was a cure for human cancer, but it didn't work at all in mice.

    Jump

  • they are widely known to be the smartest creatures on earth, followed by dolphins, and then us

  • Debian demands Rust or rust in peace for legacy ports

    Jump

  • RIIR projects usually don't have feature parity.

  • China solves 'century-old problem' with new analog chip that is 1,000 times faster than high-end Nvidia GPUs

    Jump

  • speakers are analog devices by nature.

    The other two are used for the distortions they introduce, so quite literally lower fidelity. Whether some people like those distortions is irrelevant.

    You want high fidelity: lossless digital audio formats.

    Jump

  • what audio tech uses analog for better fidelity?

  • Why have so many services started using single-factor passwordless authentication in the last little while?

    Jump

  • banks have the most obnoxious, yet the stupidest security measures.

  • An in-space construction firm says it can help build massive data centers in orbit

    Jump

  • at least two, you can't stuff a rocket full of just gpus, you need something to actually dock and deliver the payload in space. So you need to launch at least 2 rockets (in a non-reusable configuration, so you need to pay for the whole rocket and the launch) to ship a bunch of gpus that are, at best, only 10% as fast as usual.

  • An in-space construction firm says it can help build massive data centers in orbit

    Jump

  • they did think of it. lots of people have. I just mentioned what was required. Rad hardened processors are usually 10 to 20 times slower than what we have on the surface

    Jump

  • and the infrastructure and robotics to replace them, of course.

    Assuming 200 nvidia H100 failures a day (conservativo, reality is worse) that's an extra ~340kg of weight you'd need to launch per day. Which is an extra 120 tons yearly.

  • An in-space construction firm says it can help build massive data centers in orbit

    Jump

  • and forget about running 4nm chips in space. shit has to be radiation hardened, which means bigger process nodes and higher energy cost, and lower speed

  • An in-space construction firm says it can help build massive data centers in orbit

    Jump

  • for starters, at the loads they're running at, they have literally hundreds of gpu failures a day. How do you propose doing that in space?

    Jump

  • well any actual engineer who isn't trying to sell them will readily tell you that a datacenter in space is a very bad idea.
