OP need to train for languaging.
“Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience” - Winston Churchill or Abraham Lincoln (probably)
Que venham os carros elétricos (eu já tenho um). Não polui nem o ar nem nossos ouvidos.
That would require arable land, which would affect food production or require devastating wild areas to create new monoculture farms. Both options would come with horrible side-effects for society and/or environment.
And my bow.
Same. It was one the worst espressos of my life. Considering that I live in Brazil, the world’s largest producers of coffee, that disgusting liquid was like a slap in the face.
Fuel rationing. You get a certain ammount of fuel per year with no extra taxes on it. If you use above that ammount, you’re charged a marginal environment tax.
Musk has called the Moraes’ decisions regarding X “unconstitutional.”
According to which constitution Melon ? You do realize that Brazil is a sovereign country and we have our own constitution right ? You know, the one that has explicit protections against hate speech, discrimination and harassment ?
Also, do you really think you know more about our constitution than a fucking Supreme Court Minister ?
You’re pathetic, Elmo.
According to the open-source intelligence (OSINT) site Molfar, Ukraine has sunk or damaged nearly 60 ships of the Russian Navy.
How, for fuck sake, Russia managed to lose 60 ships to a country that has NO NAVY ?!?
Holy! Shit!
Taiwan, not PRC. Mainland China isn’t capable of making CPUs and GPUs whith the performance and low power draw needed for a portable console in the volumes necessary. They brute-forced their way into a 7nm process, but it’s expensive and low yields, so they’re using it only for crypto mining ASICs and Huawei phones.
To make a console like the Steam Deck, they would need an AMD64 chip on 5nm. Granted, Zhaoxin does have a licence for X86 architecture (inherited from Via, who got it when they bought Cirix), but they’re still far from being able to make those in 7 or 5nm.
Meanwhile, TSMC in Taiwain is already shipping 3nm chips for Apple and soon for AMD too.
Unless China figures out Extreme UV, like in the ASML machines, or direct stamping, like in recently announced Canon machines, they won’t be competitive with Intel, TSMC or Samsung anytime soon.
Fuck it ! I’m buying the game again. I have it on GOG and Google Play Store and now I’m buying it on Steam too, for no other reason than reward ConcernedApe for his amazing work.
No one mentioned the Solaris convention yet ?
/dev/cXtXdXsX
The letters mean controller, SCSI target, disk and slice (Solaris equivalent to a partition).
I always thought this was the most elegant naming scheme in the Unix world.
I use Heimdall too, with a bunch of other things. One of them is Pihole.
Pihole will not only help blocking ads at DNS level, it will also work as DHCP server and resolve localy configured addresses, like homepage.ourhome.
Put it on your network and disable the DHCP feature in your WiFi router/firewall (you may need to explicitly set it to forward DHCP to Pihole).
One warning, do not set up names like host.local. the TLD .local is reserved it will cause issues.
Analog computers don’t have CPUs as we understand them…
Not anymore. Bitcoin now requires dedicated hardware (ASICs). Other coins were designed to make use of ASICs impossible or impractical, requiring GPUs, but those still require a CPU to drive them.
New developments, such as Ethereum moving away from proof of work to proof of stake made GPUs unnecessary, but you still need a computer with a CPU to validate the blocks on the block-chain.
Edit: Even with ASICs mining bitcoin, you still need servers to distribute the work to them.
Banning TikTok would be as good as banning Facebook, Instagram or XTwitter, by that I mean it would be a net gain for society as a whole. But you have to ban them all, without discriminating based on which nation they originated.
But this is not the case here, this is the US congress enacting barriers towards foreign competitors, just like they did with steel, sugar and cars (ever wondered why you can’t buy one of those little European cars in America?).
This TikTok bullshit is Huawei all over again. It’s not to protect “national security” or “the children”, the Huawei ban was all about protecting the business of American companies during the transition from 4G to 5G.
You can set Firefox to block auto-play, even if you open the tab in the foreground, put uBlock origin on top of it and you get rid of most of those annoying videos.
Which means several years of development ahead to have working silicon, and that would mean AMD64 v1, which Windows and many libraries/application in Linux doesn’t support anymore.
In Debian Unstable, for example, ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 reports that it only supports v2, v3 and v4. v3 architecture , so CPUs from Buldozer/Nehalen generation or later. That version of the architecture will still be protected for a few more years.
Since both Intel and AMD are competitors on both CPU and GPU markets, Nvidia’s only option is Zhaoxin, a joint venture between Via Technologies (who has a license for box X86 and AMD64) and Shanghai municipality.
Failing that, they would have to go with ARM and emulation, which would come with a performance penalty, or separate CPU and GPU chips, which would make the devices bigger and less power efficient than competing models with APUs.
In conclusion, don’t hold your breath. This talk about Nvidia handheld PCs is just to appease their shareholders and create FUD on AMD and Intel ones.
Shift+Ins was the default paste on Windows 3.0, before Apple sued Microsoft for copying their OS (back in then it was still called just “System”), so MS added Ctrl+C for Windows 3.1, but the old one still work.
Same thing for Xorg. Ctrl+Ins for copy, Ctrl+Del for paste and Ctrl+Ins for paste.
All of those happened before the modern safeguards were adopted by the US. We’re lucky none of them went super-critical. We just don’t know for sure if the Soviet leftovers Russia has were upgraded to the same atandards.
