Thanks, I was familiar with encryption but not with bitlocker. So this only affects a particular mode of bitlocker in which the drive is automatically decrypted on boot without the user providing any secret. Meaning the key is basically sto

If I was releasing a laptop with Linux support as a key selling point, and the battery life was bad on Ubuntu 24.04 but good on the pre-release 26.04, then I'd advertise the good figures and write "tested on Ubuntu 26.04 beta, req

Looks much closer to Haiku than Sonnet. Maybe "Qwen3.5 122B offers Haiku 4.5 performance on local computers" would be a more realistic and defensible claim.

The other advantage of fibre is subtlety if you can't (or don't want to) run it through walls. 0.9mm diameter and light enough to attach it with occasional dots of glue instead of needing cable clips.

I can second this 0.9mm transparent stuff, I've run it successfully and it's very subtle. Depending on the media converter pair you're using, you probably want UPC instead of APC. I also found that the cheapest generic bidi m

Anecdotally, everything works flawlessly on my work machine: Optiplex Micro, Intel iGPU, Fedora KDE 43, 4K 32" primary monitor at 125% scale, 1440p 27" secondary monitor at 100%. No issues with Wayland or with anything else. Every

Instead of shutting down completely, why not this: For goo.gl links that were created by google, continue redirecting them as normal. For others, show a warning page explaining to the user that the link wasn't created (or vouched for)

This looks like it could be very valuable for quite a lot of people- thank you for making it! Just a couple first impressions from your site... loading it on a phone, the first thing I see is this: https://imgur.com/4maP1vV

Thank you! Just used this to clear away a load of tabs. Some gripes: I wish I could just use it standalone without it replacing the "new tab" page. I wish I could view the full title of a tab, maybe on hover. I only want to use it

This looks fantastic and is relevant to some game modding ideas I've had. I love your blog series about decompiling Tenchu too. Thank you for releasing this stuff!

Your GPU is 6 years, 7 months old. As an analogy, consider someone in 2007 objecting that their 2001 GeForce3 Ti500 can't run Crysis/Mass Effect/etc. The PS4 generation really messed with the usual conventions and expectation

Yes! There's a public git repo here: https://repo.or.cz/tinycc.git "Public" in the sense that anyone can just push to the "mob" branch. You don't even need an account. Such anarchy has obvious

Those results look excellent. I'm trying to gauge whether something like this could potentially work in realtime, i.e. in games. I know it inevitably depends on hardware, resolution, settings, etc but do you have a ballpark figure for

Pressing "See it in action" shows an empty black overlay. Opening that link in a new tab works, but the demo/story isn't as helpful as it could be. For example it talks about screen recordings, so I was expecting to be a

What's the reason for the "everywhere except Europe" shipping? I'm guessing some legal/regulatory thing, but would be curious to know the details.

It doesn't look like we'll be affected (we don't have anything that uses 3.x and the golang updates seem to be unrelated). I'm still going to monitor things on Tuesday, just in case.
