The other option is to use VirtIO with Native Context support as a software based partitioning scheme that is relatively lightweight compared to the mdev approach.

The kernel on GitHub is just a mirror - the primary source is on kernel.org

PipePipe seems to work with my login to play age restricted stuff. I do generally have to trigger a login through settings and then research the video through.

Not just that - modern Androids compile apps in a VM these days to reduce the attack surface of the compiler. You can also push other services into VMs that support the main image. You could even push some vendor drivers into VMs and help keep the main kernel less of a vendor fork fest.

Does anyone know what the underlying filesystem is on DSM? The ability to easily replace disks with a degree of redundancy across the 4 bays is the biggest plus point for Synology although I have no doubt all the bits underneath are the Linux storage stack.

It’s a shame because I really like the point and click nature of DSM. Although I’m a happy Linux hacker I don’t want another Linux box to suck up my limited admin time just to store files.

Bold of you to assume we’ll make it that far. I’m not convinced that our current networked CO2 phase isn’t another great filter event.

I played my youngest (11) the Pickle Rick episode but told them a lot of the other episodes had adult themes that night go over their head so maybe when they’re older.

So that’s how the family ended up running through all the seasons over about 3 weeks. Some stuff they didn’t pick up on but got raised eyebrows from the older sibling (13) but all in all they loved it. Rick’s even trying to improve as a person in the latter seasons so it’s not totally niahlistic.

Android gets a leg up from being built on a FLOSS base but I don’t think it was the community that pushed Android to where it is today. That’s taken a lot of money and resources from Google and it’s phone partners investing in the slightly more open platform than Apple.

That’s not really true. Yes avoiding complex instructions makes the front end easier to pipeline but there are lots of smarts in the backend to do prediction and scheduling to keep the execution units fed. The ISA might be free to use but no one is sharing their highly optimised server silicon architecture designs.

RISC-V’s challenge is can they standardise the software ecosystem enough that things just work across a multitude of chip providers or does everything devolve into specialist distributions taking advantage of each manufacturers “special sauce” custom instructions.

Gaining design wins over Arm’s microcontrollers for bespoke hardware was the easy bit. Replacing stuff in the server space is much harder and something that took Arm decades to make inroads into.

Very handy site. Nice 🙂

I pay for it so the TV and web experience is ad free. I use PipePipe on my phone because the native client won’t stop pushing shorts at you.

It’s not like Android is especially open to drive-by contributions anyway. I don’t think really changes much for the downstream consumers of the releases.

We’ll go from Google sucking up all our data to another entity sucking up all our data and selling it to other people. How much funding does it take to keep Chrome running?

Magit is one of Emac’s many superpowers.

Pre-cut with comedy edges as well. But the methodology seemed valid as another poster said, giving cars the same limited eyesight as us seems like under engineering for safety.

Context is king which is why even the biggest models get tied in knots when I try them on my niche coding problems. I’ve been playing a bit with NotebookLM which promises to be interesting with enough reference material but unfortunately when I tried to add the Vulcan specs it complained it couldn’t accept them (copyright maybe?).

We have recently been given clearance to use the Gemini Pro tools with Google office at work. While we are still not using them for code generation I have found the transcription and meeting summary tools very useful and certainly a time saver.

I used to think about it a lot when I was younger because it seemed so unfair that life comes to an end. As I’ve gotten older (and closer to the inevitable) I think about it less. Hopefully you’ll get to the point you realise worrying about something you can’t change isn’t productive use of the time you have left. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do what you can to eat well, keep fit and put off that final reckoning as much as you can.

The OSI have had a go: https://opensource.org/ai/open-source-ai-definition

I’ve been using https://containertoolbx.org/ recently to manage my “other distro” requirements. It doesn’t do anything special but works nicely as a wrapper around podman and does all the bind mounts and uid mappings so you can just enter your $HOME as though you have set up your account in a new OS.
