I've been using Gentoo for 20+ years, it hasn't changed much. I have changed different logger, cron, ntp, login and probably other daemons over time. Stability has gotten better over time, making me not switch to anything else.

You know, you don't have to build something just because you can.

Locking you into the software when you buy the hardware is still considered giving it away.

I've never changed the default, Squarespace, Godaddy, Cloudflare, Porkbun, all have been an hour or so.

Developer tools have always been pretty well supported on Linux, it seems like gaming is also getting there except for anti-cheat. Maybe productivity tools will follow.

TBH, Tesla lost the plot after master plan 2 (Roadster 2, Semi and Cybertruck are all fine examples), now it's just a farce. Another company I will be glad to not have in my life.

There are different vaccines from different manufacturers. Attestation from something like keybase should work just as well for banks or whatever.

Root used to just mean knowing an admin password and rarely using it on desktop platforms for making local changes. It's changed definition for mobile if it now means just being able to run and auto-update apps from fdroid or run an ap

This level of security exists on open as well as closed platforms, the problem is the closed platforms not allowing you to do things that aren't giving your password away (like installing fdroid or using beeper easily). I just have a h

Vastly superior security doesn't make you give up freedoms for security. But do tell me how successful the war against scams has been for the average user.

I saw him at a meetup in the south bay years ago. Definitely kind spoken and generous in answering questions. It was a highlight for me after moving to the bay area.

Maybe this and TornadoVM will lead to a native torch on the JVM. One can hope.

Scams are the justification, F-Droid hasn't had any scam apps throughout it's existence, and it's not clear every functionality it currently has will be preserved with this change like auto-updating apps and easy installation

Cubasis and Blackmagic Camera are cross platform, not that "most people" would use these over whatever was preinstalled or the camera interface in their social app.

If auto-updating apps stops working on fdroid, I'll be installing Graphene, Lineage or taking a shot at something like postmarket/ubuntu touch/plasma mobile. I've used Lineage as a daily driver before for a while, so I&#

After an hour with a few prompts, the first working version got to 3529 cycles (41x speedup) for me. I was using Gemini 3 pro preview.

Like I said, this is a cat and mouse game, if you had terminals to spare or even just fake battery operated transmitting antennas, you could waste a lot of drone time. There are also masking techniques and it's not like the drones can&

TV emissions don't use beam forming. This is all a cat and mouse game, but Starlink being a distributed system should mean it is harder to completely block use of.

Doesn't Starlink use some sort wideband signal which is hard to jam? Combined with some sort of frequency hopping and a moving constellation should mean blocking a user or satellite signal should be pretty hard, like many times the cos

Looking forward to using Gentoo in WSL more easily. I currently use Ubuntu for some scripting but would switch as I also use Gentoo on the desktop. Also good to see the Rust toolchain and BLAS packaging improvements. What has kept me on Gen

As a private platform, SpaceX did try to draw a line with where their service could be used in Ukraine, but we're talking about Iranian protestors now, a different matter I think. If they were offering a firewall as a service, then wha

It's weird how Apple and Google don't get it, while SpaceX does.
