Is there no electron wrapper around ChatGPT yet? Jeez we better hurry, imagine having to use your browser like… For pretty much everything else.

I think overall they are not better or worse than other tech giants. They try to be the platform for blank and thus to push competitors out of the marked, or lock it down so they can’t enter. They try to extract as much money from their customers as they can, even if it makes the user experience worse. They push the boundaries of what the can legally do. They charge you, but you don’t own anything.
What really grinds my gears is how they try to force stuff on me that I don’t fucking want. I feel like they are completely different in that regard than for example Google. I use Google Maps because I want to. I don’t use Chrome because I don’t want to. It’s that easy. They don’t ask me to reconsider, they don’t make it super complicated to switch, nothing. I can disable any Google App and forget about it.
To stick with the Google comparison, I also feel like Google informs me better and gives me more control regarding my data. This feels much more hidden on convoluted in MS products in general. For example I had no idea Office is basically spyware before reading about it elsewhere. In Google-land, they seem much more upfront about what they use and what I can opt out from (or in to).
You know, comparing people to God is basically blasphemy already. Not that I trust people who genuinely support Trump to understand anything about their own religion - or anything really.
Sure sounds like the French way of protesting
I wonder what’s the strategy here. If I had to guess I’d say he wants to see them fail miserably, so they lose support as quickly as they got it. I’m not sure that’s a good idea tho.
Imagine thinking you have authority over your children’s sexuality and gender. That would be kind of a pro-abortion argument tho.
People try their hardest to make computers your friends. Don’t be afraid to talk to them 😊
You do need to authorize admin action on Windows and it causes severe security issues, because people do it without thinking all the time.
You can also configure Linux to have this behaviour, but for security reasons it works differently out of the box. Also, some programs, such as many terminal emulators, can cache you PW so you don’t have to enter it multiple times.
I use a U2F key for sudo and it’s just one touch. One touch you need to sit in front of my computer for.
Holy shit, that is a sweet deal. What I think is more interesting however, is that it’s also kinda revealing that they think law works like this in the West - and also what level of control they think is acceptable for a state to have.
I mean, a lot if people will have Nvidia hardware - which will limit your distro choices right from the start and if said green hardware is recent, well you’re fucked (for just a little while longer it seems).
Aw man, I was hoping for wings, or at least feathers.
I prefer Flatpaks, not only because I support the format, but also because of containerization and the ability to clean up an application completely.
I absolutely hate it when apps randomly place config files everywhere.
If you gonna rant, please make it at least comprehensible. You went from “JS is flawed” to “everyone is wrong these days” within three paragraphs like wth.
I also highly disagree with your premise that people think ‘simple is bad’. Things that are complicated are usually complicated for a reason. C++ for example is complicated, because it grew over decades. Rust is complicated, because it tries to be secure, capture mistakes at compile time, while allowing for concurrency and memory management, and at the same time be very efficient and give the programmer much control. It’s hard if not impossible to achieve all these goals in a language without making it complicated.
Go on the other hand is not complicated, because Google engineers saw C++ and wanted to make something less complicated - and thus they created a simpler language. This is an example that goes directly against your argument, together with many other modern languages and frameworks that were created for reasons like this. But notably and more importantly, the most popular languages are simple. Python, JS/TS, Java - These languages are all relatively easy to use.
I won’t pretend that I get you bit about WASM since I have little experience with it, but as far as I understand it is primarily a vehicle allowing to use programming languages for the web that weren’t designed for it. And as far as I’m aware you can do quite sophisticated things with it, so where exactly is the problem? Putting guardrails in place is rarely a bad thing, because they are easy to remove but hard to establish retroactively.
Is using btrfs an option? Offer transparent compression at FS level
I think TOML found a pleasant compromise there
If I had a Euro for everyone who thinks they understand the Nazis and what they did but doesn’t, I could have bailed out Greece on my own.
I’ll hold weapon shipments because I think Israel is bombarding civilians, but I will not stand for people accusing them of war crimes.
Is it just me or would it be way, waaay easier to just throw them under the bus completely? Biden could end the protests, avoid this absolutely ridiculous balancing act, and, if an all out war breaks out after Israel loses his political support, the US could still sell them weapons.
I’m not saying this is the best course of action, but what he does seems kinda irrational. Feels like it’s nothing but hurting his chances in the election.
For me it loads fine with uBlock, but they have started to implement some basic VPN-blocking apparently (or enabled whatever their CDN provider talked them into or whatever). A simple reconnect seems to do the trick with ProtonVPN however.
