I’ve used debian and arch. Only on debian have I discovered my wifi driver wasn’t yet supported. Only on debian have I turned on a server that I’d left off for a bit and abruptly discovered packages and updates no longer worked due to end of support and that I couldn’t run dist-upgrade without them. I’ve had to do more major surgery on apt then I’ve ever done with pacman.

Aaand its dependent on HP print cartridges. This is a hard problem but the dependence on HP will probably backfire

Having been to the supermarket recently Reese’s does in fact sell fourth of July “limited edition” peanut butter cups. They aren’t firework shaped though. They are just taller.

The problem isn’t a lack of feral reverse engineers and crackers. Console protections are like catnip to that crowd. The problem is the starting state is a lot worse.

Windows PE files aren’t encrypted (Yes their content may be but the entry point and key loader would still need to be stored as cleartext) and can easily be copied and decompiled. The ability to run debuggers isn’t locked behind having an undisclosed zero day or unpatched device. Arbitrary code execution is available by default. And the APIs aren’t all NDAed

There is a funny set of furry sculptures in the middle of Golden Gate Park that have very plainly been subjected to modesty rules. The end result of this is that the male subject is only allowed to have nipples when he is wearing pants.

Meanwhile BART is being sued by a stadium for trying to extend service to the stadium

After going through the linked threads. Discussing graphene OS or any other ROM on r/privacy will get you banned. WTF‽

I am pretty sure at least one of these is not in the same thread or they have been reordered

Arch just seems to work. Though I am also not seeing a single distro in this thread listed as having issues.

Long incubation period + passengers ending their cruises in different places. Once they figured out it was spreading on the ship it was quarantined but by then several people had already left.

Part of the issue is because a lot of people aren’t literally in shanties it’s hard for people to recognise that poverty is becoming quite remarkably bad. The poor have electricity and internet now and I think its screwing with our brains. The other major factor here is that a lot of homeless people live in their cars rather than shanties which makes the issue less visible as cars look more expensive than shacks and tents and parked cars are ignorable. The average quality of living for people at the bottom is better than the gilded age but the income and quality of living divide is terrifyingly vast and it’s not improving.

Default audio is in Spanish although English is available. Some but not all on-screen text has non removable Russian subtitles baked into the video. Could be worse.

The Spanish sub&dub with on screen Russian is confusing

I’m more confused by the cam capture listings dated 2025

There definitely is some amount of expenditure by valve. I don’t know if its 30% worth. For multiplayer games they provide a server/client DDOS protection and traffic optomization service though it is opt in by the developer through an api. The other option for this tends to be a “contact sales” priced product from cloudflare. There is also some of proton’s development, some linux graphics driver work, and workshop support though I suspect hosting and content moderation expenditure there is fairly minimal.

1. The price Sony and MS pay for RAM will keep going up regardless of whether there is a hardware refresh or not. So keeping the old version won’t keep consumer costs down. If they don’t refresh the cost increases will just look sillier.
2. They avoid having to search for time on older process nodes while fabs try to migrate to newer ones by updating periodically.

I assume it sells if they are changing capacity allocations

Intel and AMD have prioritized capacity for server CPUs, and the supply for PCs has become less … what PC players can get in Q2 is much less than the volume we got in Q1.

Its also worth pointing out that TSMC is a bit booked right now and Intel has its own fabs. So if you need a server CPU you may have to buy from Intel if you need it soon.

Allegedly Intel’s CPU performance is improving relative to AMD so it may be getting better.

Intel and AMD aren’t claiming shortages. They are switching what they are manufacturing. Companies downstream of them in the consumer space are reporting shortages.

Beyond All Reason is free, open source, and a good strategy game. They are still rebuilding the campaign though.

I was thinking of the external ones which aren’t default exposed

The reason to eliminate door handles that Tesla and others typically give is aerodynamic efficiency. Granted there are other bigger aerodynamic problems. gestures at the rest of the fucking truck
