I’m a technical kinda guy, doing technical kinda stuff.
It’s only a matter of time before Google borks the fine grained notification system in Android in the quest to serve you more ads information to enhance your life.
Apps get one chance with me. As soon as I get an unsolicited notification begging me to interact with them, that’s it, 100 percent silenced.
People don’t just leave leaking apps out there for consumption.
Ha! Welcome to corporate, where vendors sell you software and say that the hardware has to have 128GB of ram and when you poke around a bit you discover a single JVM with constantly growing memory usage with a script that restarts it every time it runs out of resources.
AND a log file that describes - in typical Java excruciating detail - the precise lines in each module where the devs allocated resources but didn’t free them. About 40 times a second.
Lol between the top paragraph and the bottom one the number of partners increased by 23. I wonder how many partners they have now?
Anything useful is still “unsafe.”
So you take care with the bits that have to deal with C, just like you have to with C code itself, and then all the rest of your code is still safe by default. Still a net improvement, yes?
If you occasionally boot to windows, it’s known to leave NICs in an unusable state if you just hibernate/quick power off. You need to boot back to windows and so a “proper” shutdown for it to come good.
Consider yourself corrected then. I’ve skimmed your comment history. Your go-to insult is “bootlicker” or alternatively, a simple clown emoji. In your comments you seem to provide very little context as to why you think that, it’s just, “I deem you to be a BOOTLICKER! Next!”
So maybe a little guidance for you:
The very, very, first thing you do when dealing with perceived propaganda - be it on mainstream media, online, or wherever - is to remove all the emotion and insults and see what’s left. You know what I see when I parse your comments like that? Very little.
Thus I conclude you have nothing of importance to say, and you become background noise that gets tuned out.
Actually your comments do have some small value. I check your bootlicker-comment-score and if it’s greater than 5, I know the community you posted in isn’t worth my time.
“Akshually”, so do you. You had a chance to discuss and inform, and instead you went straight to “bootlicker”.
Do you think they’re going to take any notice of whatever you say from here on?
Try “lspci -vv” first to see the devices on the bus and to figure out which device is causing this.
Secondly, check all your BIOS’ “performance” settings, such as memory timings, bus speeds, and etc, and set them to default.
See how things go after that.
Mainly when you are building a single-purpose , “appliance” device and you have the bare minimum of RAM/storage available. You just want to get the board powered up and initialised and then jump to your application.
So you build a kernel with only the correct drivers you need, you skip initrd, you skip initscripts and (lord forbid) systemd, you just jump straight to your program, with possibly busybox available if you need debugging.
Edit: I’m talking more about building it from scratch here, not LFS. Regarding security issues, you then “only” have to deal with kernel exploits, with a limited surface as you have limited modules linked, and exploits in your application.
“Just got to spin through a few trillion instructions to get things sorted before we go to standby! Won’t be a minute!”
Effective advertising has a clear and simple visual language, and this is what UIs should strive for.
Interfaces can be needlessly complex regardless of being flat or skeuomorphic.
But flat interfaces still require mental effort to parse. Especially when the interface is complex and/or crowded and you’re trying to pick out active UI elements amongst decorations like group boxes/panels.
Essentially, flat interfaces are currently popular because of touchscreen devices. Touchscreen devices have limited space and thus need simplistic UI elements that can be prodded by a fat finger on a small screen.
But I don’t need a flat touchscreen-friendly interface on my non-touch dual 24" monitors with acres of screen real estate. I need an interface that nicely separates usable UI elements from the rest of the application window. That means 3D hints on a 2D screen, which allows my monkey-brain with five million years of evolved 3D vision the opportunity to run my “click the button” mental command as a background process.
I was thinking that I would have to switch to bsd.
Finally the year of Hurd on the desktop?
You are flashing the chip directly so apart from inadvertent short circuits and such if it doesn’t work you can just keep trying until it does.
As for wire length it all depends on how fast they clock the SPI bus when flashing. You’ll probably be able to get away with 20cm or so without difficulty , I’ve driven SPI displays with that kind of wire length before.
Microsoft is shit. Windows, is shit. Windows 11 is a privacy goddamn nightmare.
But in the end of the day, it just fucking works, those damn bastards ensure that. And even when something doesn’t work, it seems, for some unknown reason, most of the online solutions do fix the issue.
Hahahahahahahahahahaha
(Pause for breath)
Hahahahahahahahahahaha
Only if you count “most of the online solutions” as “run SFC /SCANNOW and if that doesn’t work, just reinstall your OS”.
As if the software was as permanent as the hardware lol
There’s no guarantee that the software will ever be updated to something that the user finds usable though.
Google could just one day go “meh, we don’t think folding displays are where we want to be right now”, and - ta-da! - you’re left with a folding doorstop and Google’s got yet another entry on the “killed by Google” list.
As another poster has mentioned, M-Discs are written using a Blu-ray writer and are good for a few hundred years, in theory.
Blu-Ray USB drive and M-Discs is about the best you can get at present. Keep the drive unplugged when not in use, it’ll probably last 10-20 years in storage.
Seeing as there hasn’t been much advance past Blu-ray, keep an eye out for something useful to replace it in the future, or at least get another drive when you notice them becoming scarce.
Never understood why smartphones are so super bright by default.
Because they have to compete with 50k lux outside and then scale to 600 lux indoors, then down to just to a few lux in a darkened room.
Perhaps the brightness slider needs to be more logarithmic so you can slide from 0.001 percent to 100 percent more easily.
They need to learn how to use their tools better. Winscp does all that transparently for you if you press F4 on a file on a remote system. Or maybe they did and you just didn’t see it…
It’s quite a handy function when you’re diving through endless layers of directories on a remote box looking for one config file amongst many.
If it seems stupid, that just means that it was cheaper to do it this way.
Program ROM/EEPROM + RAM, or just RAM connected to a USB interface with a reset line tied to the camera processor? See the USB device ID connect , fill the ram with the camera software, toggle processor reset , off you go.
