Because they’re still making billions. They’re just not making as many billions as they’d like, and as many as the investors are demanding.
That’s what’s driving the stock price drops more than anything else, but they’re not a broke business with no resources, no sales, and no hope heading into bankruptcy.
They’re just not feeding the vultures, and the vultures are going to force a sale to someone worse.
Hadn’t seen that project but that kind of feels like the way to go. I don’t care about having parts to keep something working when the laptop was $50 in the first place. If it breaks, into the trash it goes, and I’ll just buy another one.
Those are cool, and they’ve definitely nailed the aesthetic. Also looks like they’re working on a new revision which looks like a reasonable upgrade.
Not sure it’s the right choice for what I’m after (it’s kinda expensive and very performance limited for the cost), but uh, I’m going to keep an eye out because that’s a cool piece of kit.
“Debian is too far behind! Packages are too old!”
The best rule of thumb I’ve ever heard regarding Debian Stable is that if the kernel in stable’s default repo fully supports ALL your hardware, and the software in stable’s default repos fully support your workflows, it’s fine.
If those are NOT true, then you probably don’t want to use Stable, because you’ll either end up fighting it via manually compiled and installed software, or you’ll venture into so many 3rd party repos for updated packages that updating it later becomes problematic and prone to making the whole system catch fire and burn down.
I mean the article answers it, but this is not the first time that devs have complained that they MUST launch software that runs on the X and it’s sibling, the S.
Like, it’s a requirement that the game runs well on the flagship console and it’s potato brother.
It’s hardly a mystery why a dev might not want to spend time building a game that looks great on PS5, Series X, and PC and then also have to make a 2nd lobotomized version since Microsoft decided they wanted two consoles this time around.
You know, the older I get the more I respect the people who come out and say ‘I’m not going to learn that, and I don’t want to.’
It’s a LOT better than dealing with someone who half-asses and kinda wishy-washes around and says they’ll maybe do something but then doesn’t and well, wasn’t ever going to.
If you’re not interested and won’t, say so up front so you don’t waste your or my time trying to get you to do something.
Have some stuff on a VPS, some stuff hosted as static pages at Cloudflare, some stuff hosted at home too.
Depends on if 100% uptime is required, if they’re just serving static content, or if they’re in some way related to another service I’m running (I have a couple of BBSes, and the web pages that host the clients and VMs that host the clients run locally).
Though, at this point, anything I’m NOT hosting at home is kinda a “legacy” deployment, and probably will be brought in-house at some point in the future or converted to static-only and put on Cloudflare if there’s some reason I can’t/don’t want to host it at home.
Man, grindr getting dangerous these days.
Biebian is VASTLY superior to Hannah Montana Linux. You should consider switching.
Maybe you’d be happier playing Diablo’s parents, a proper rogue-like?
Perma-death provides quite the incentive and intensity you seem to want.
It also doesn’t lend itself quite so much to “builds” since you’re relying mostly on whatever you find, which is randomized, so you can’t “solve the game”.
And PeerTube is pathetic. Peertube on the otherhand is “EVERYTHING IS A LINUX VIDEO!!! ONLY LINUX EXISTS ON THIS PLATFORM!!!”
You’re not wrong, but the biggest flaw Peertube has is that the search on an instance is utterly worthless and defective.
They do have a good search engine for finding content you might want to watch, but they don’t use those results in the instance-level search which befuddles and confuses the shit out of me, because you won’t find shit you actually want to watch.
https://sepiasearch.org/ is where you probably want to start, but yeah, there’s a LOT of Linux shit, but you can at least find other things when you use a non-broken search option.
You have your coworkers on an unmanaged machine with a foreign OS on the guest WiFi with custom networking.
Which, at any of my last few corporate jobs, would be grounds for termination, if not immediately throwing you out of the building and telling you if you come back we’re calling the cops.
You really don’t bypass controls in a corporate environment like this if you like working there.
(And yes, not EVERY job will react that way, but any that’s got any compliance requirements absolutely will.)
I’m not giving access to my Mastodon account to some random service I’ve never heard of for no reason.
If it makes you feel better, it’s all client-side: there’s nothing executing on the server (I’m running a copy of it on a server that just… can’t execute anything) so it’s not doing any data stealing.
Buuut, since it’s trivial to host, you could grab a copy of the code and host it yourself as well.
He announced on GitHub somewhere that he’s wanting to push out the next major version of UptimeKuma first, then come back and work on dockge.
So it’s not abandoned, but it’s just a second priority.
Those 5k panels were goofy: they’re two DisplayPort links merged via software magic into 5k.
Might be that’s a proprietary thing that requires OS X?
I’m somewhat surprised that there aren’t a lot of good alternatives but uh, yeah, there doesn’t seem to be.
I would have expected there to be at least one or two good TTS engines but I guess that assumption is quite wrong.
As to your other post, it’s less that I care in any specific sense that Microsoft knows what I’m reading and more of a (admittedly irrational) dislike of providing anything that an ad company could maybe later use to sell me shit.
Neat idea, but the send-your-text-to-Microsoft bit of it is uh, well, no thank you.
Seems like a strange choice, personally, but I’m not a fan of sending tech corporations anything avoidable.
I’m always befuddled how these things end up public on the internet. (I’m not really.)
Like, it’s not like the printer is the one poking holes in your firewall while you sleep.*
*If it is, then you should feel great shame, throw away anything more complicated than a pair of dull scissors, and get a job digging holes then filling them back in.
I had a moment of actual laughter.
I was expecting a kernel issue handling networking connections or SSH or who the fuck knows but… cups?
Printers, they ruin everything.
They’re mostly in France, yeah?
It turns out that most European countries (and especially France) have actual worker protections, and you just can’t point and yell ‘you’re fired!’ at someone and do mass layoffs without, you know, doing them legally.
