I just think the user should be the one to decide whether they enable it or not. Pre-built PCs and motherboards can enable it by default, but it should be simple to bypass (and it usually is) and no company should be demanding or requiring people enable it.

The same applies for TPM2, which is also useful but shouldn’t be a requirement. If nothing else because of the E-waste this can cause by requiring PCs to support it. And most new PCs will end up enabling it in the long run anyway, so there is no need to force the issue.

404media is exactly the site I would expect to be aware of Lemmy among the semi-mainstream tech outlets (along with TheVerge to a lesser extent).

I know people’s experience varies on this but I absolutely hated high school, and only discovered that I enjoyed learning as a process because of uni. And I’d probably still be small minded and somewhat bigoted if I hadn’t gone. Simply because it forced me to critically evaluate my own views and also exposed me to a number of types of people I wouldn’t have encountered otherwise.

It’s a shame it’s so expensive in some countries, because I think it’s important to have a well-educated society more broadly.

Or a man named Andy.

They might mean exclusives, of which none of those apply. But I personally don’t think exclusives are a good thing anyway.

I suggest using Beetle mednafen, unless you’re on a very slow system. Or Swanstation, it’s not like that’s going away.

I also don’t see Swanstation going away any time soon, even if it gets no new features. It’s pretty close to feature complete in the ways that matter anyway.

I just overuse parantheses instead, as you noted. You know you’re rambling when you have several layers of them, like I’m writing a conversation in Lisp.

• Don’t use social media or news sites when you wake up, or before bed

• Block notifications from social media and news sites, or uninstall altogether

• Set time limits (like with leechblock-ng on desktop, or with simple alarms)

• You probably don’t need to read the news every day to be reasonably informed

Most of this is auto-generated header files to be clear. Still, goes to show how many GPU variants they have support for in the kernel, going back 15+ years.

They could, but obviously these people would be against that. Because they don’t have a rational objection, they’re just bigots.

Having a web UI is useful even if you’re not using the extra tools. Not mandatory of course, but nice.

He also won re-election running as an independent, well after the rape charges were known and he was kicked out of his party and suspended from parliament. But that wasn’t enough for the people of his electorate to go: “Err maybe this rapist isn’t the best option to represent us.”

The sandboxing sometimes breaks applications or requires additional configuration. And I don’t like that it’s a separate thing I need to maintain, although some package managers pair main package updates etc together.

And as a NixOS user, I prefer to use nix to handle as much of my system as possible, although flatpak at least is useful as a fallback in a pinch. Of course, this is a niche within a niche and mainstream users, particularly those using immutable distros can and do benefit from flatpak.

“Globalism” invariably means some sort of conspiracy theory, usually about Jews. Given this party are also anti-vaxxers, that’s the most plausible conclusion.

And a broader coalition among the rest of the Western countries including Europe and Australia/NZ etc makes more sense than duplicating effort in every country.

I’m guessing it’s the AI agent stuff. Which at the moment is literally just automating browsing through a website.

Apparently there will be APIs to do this in the future. Ironically, AI wouldn’t even be needed for that to be useful.

Valve is one of the main contributors to the RADV Vulkan driver for AMD GPUs, and a bunch of other parts of Mesa and the open driver stack in general.

I should probably add that some of this work is on RDNA3 FSR4 support, which isn’t even supported on Windows. It’s not amazingly fast, but it’s now faster than native and that might be enough to make it worth it (especially in the cases where it improves image quality due to poor TAA implementations).

Intel provides solid Linux support, I’d say it’s probably on par with AMD.

I’d say in the long run yes, but they tend to be slower at adding features compared to AMD (which tends to be where all of the experimental stuff happens first). Or rather that AMD cards are often the first target for Mesa developers, which includes the likes of Valve.

I’m almost at the point where all of my connections are IPv6, but still hampered by my mobile provider (ironically, since IPv6 was generally adopted earlier on mobile in many countries).
