That’s crazy.
Since GPUs got into the TFLOP range I often think of this old magazine cover:

Zero chance this company replaced him with an AI that actually does anything useful.
I was a pretty experienced programmer when I first read SICP, but I still found it incredibly valuable. I’d recommend it to anyone.
It’s such a good idea. I can’t believe they didn’t think of it sooner.
It’s actually possible in a way:

But you necessarily need to limit the devices and operating systems that are allowed. No custom ROMs, no root access, etc.
It’s bullshit and breaks open computing as a concept.
I don’t disagree exactly, but I’d argue that you’re contributing to the project even if you’re just reporting bugs or helping others with it on e.g. Lemmy.
I could see avoiding all of that pragmatically in order to use some obscure, critical software, but not something you use every day and for which there are reasonable alternatives.
This is what I came here to say. This is a sovereignty issue they could solve with a miniscule portion of their defense budgets.
Do you think Trump got confused by the whole red team / blue team thing being different?
It’s kind of absurd. When you buy a TV, the bloated adware at least helps lower the price. Imagine paying extra for it.
Assuming I’m looking at the right thing on google maps, it does seem to be a lot of earthen bunkers with berms separating them. There are also quite a few free standing buildings scattered around.
I looked at Hawthorne Army Depot (US) to compare, and that one is a lot less dense, but it’s absolutely gigantic.
The aim is to terrorize the civilian population and turn them against the Ukrainian military and government, forcing them to sue for peace with Moscow.
Hasn’t this famously backfired whenever it was attempted?
Can we move the front line to the Mason-Dixon line?
Fair enough, most of that isn’t something a user should have to worry about.
VT is just Virtual Terminals. You always have one of them active, and in most distros you can switch to others by Ctrl-Alt-F1 through F12. In some distos it’s just Alt-F1.
So if you press Ctrl-Alt-F2 you should be brought to a text login. For crazy historical reasons you may have to either press Ctrl-Alt-F1 or Ctrl-Alt-F7 to get back to your usual graphical session.

I use Orgzly, but that’s mostly because I sync it with Emacs on other devices. I tend to organise things in a tree, but it’s quite flexible.
I would try:
nothing will come of it
You’re probably right, but maybe it’ll cause Trump to turn on Vance a little?
I am not sure the president is aware how inconsistent this is with his message on Europe right now.
Surely these assholes are going to fall out spectacularly in the near future.
I just started using finamp a couple of weeks ago and this inspired me to install the beta.
If I find any problems I’ll try to get involved on the repository. Discord is a bit of a turnoff though.
I use gnome-session-inhibit
quite a bit, but it’s hard to imagine a good way to automate it.
Sometimes I inhibit idle
to keep something on screen, and sometimes I just inhibit suspend
so something can complete.
It probably doesn’t make sense for the terminal to have anything more than a protocol to control it. The only real benefit to that would be in remote sessions, and it’s not really clear how it should work when multiple machines are involved.
I know this is just bullshit his supporters will believe, but I’m starting to wonder if he’s actually in on the con, or just a demented old man being manipulated.
It also occurred to me when he called Ukraine peace talks “doing business”.
This seems like a very bad idea. I think we just need more lisp and less AI.
