Well it sets an upper bound on compute requirements at ‘simulate 10^27 atoms for thirty years’ remains to be seen if what we can optimize away ever converges with what’s feasible to build.

It would become Twitter.

I agree strongly with your gut reaction. I personally use it as the archive of record whenever I digitize some media that would otherwise be lost. I use it when trying to establish how something looked in the past. I don’t need IA to go out and pick losing fights with publishers at the expense of the excellent services they already provide.

It should be noted that if you want digital book loans Libby is fine.

N64 runs ok on pi? Since when? Which PI?

Warzone 2100 was my jam! They hadn’t actually got cutscenes working in the Linux port I was using so I was.very confused about the story.

Termux used to rock but nowdays installing stuff is very hit or miss.

x86 apps? Awesome.

I still don’t understand why IA picked a fight with publishers with the emergency library.

IA provides a really valuable service and they’re an incredibly juicy target. Going on anti-copyright crusades isn’t their mission.

MacOS was just about as jank as Windows 9x by my recollection.

The screen was nice, the USB support was nice. I didn’t hate the keyboard, though I was used to an IBM Model M so I hammered those keys…

Reason. It’s got a unique workflow that is hard to break from. I even tried Renoise, but it’s hard to switch.

For the tower defense enthusiast.

If students hide their phones instead of being distracted by them, isn’t that mission accomplished?

I personally like FastAPI (python.)

Came here to post Tech Won’t Save Us.

I think mentoring is incredibly important-it’s how the field.stays vital. I’ve done it in my career through code reviews, architecture discussions, pair programming, and for hobby stuff even just writing blog posts about how I got stuff to work.

RAIL has its own problems-the use restrictions make it very different from normal open source models.

He’s not wrong to call Mastodon users weirdos I suppose, but I wanted to talk to fellow weirdos anyway so it serves my purposes well.

I think it’s a base model 3, no gobs of memory. I don’t use it for anything especially taxing, just file storage and occasionally streaming music or low-resolution video. The bottleneck is the slow WD Archive hard drive.

My setup is a raspberry pi with a large external hard drive running smbd, and it works fine.

Seconding Feedly.
