This is what happens when there are zero reliable reporters to call bullshit, CEOs make shit up and no-one checks their work. It's just 'Jensen Huang says'.

Shocker, cut China off from US designed (not manufactured) chips and they make their own (capitalist competition, remember that old thing), still coming up to speed, but soon, and I'd like some DDR5 (or 6) SamA you dick.

The only thing at play for these pricks is the 'CUDA moat' (and the lack of effort from AMD's RocM, also, you wouldn't believe how amenable that [ironically] is to LLM coding), and a few hardware tricks (it's just compute, catch up will happen), but if there's someone outside your duopoly that dog won't continue to hunt. Bad thing when a vasty majority of US GDP is AI BS. Shame you've got an idiot rampaging through the world markets for a relative pittance (but actual fortune) from insider trading. Who would have thought that'd go badly long term.

Back to weapons for you, and your military doesn't know how to make a cheap (anything) drone.

Choose Codium..

Didn't OpenAI just sign a deal with Samsung and SK Hynix to consume 40% of the worlds DRAM wafer supply for the foreseeable future.

This is a natural consequence of sucking up all the oxygen.

Fucking AI bubble...

Podman is great, but I only found it useful after learning quadlets and how to use podlet to generate quadlets (or quadlet pods) from dockerfiles. Now all my containers run with nice systemd commands in rootless podman containers instead of rooted dockerfiles (coz docker requires root unless you jump through hoops, when I started you couldn't). Quadlet syntax is so much cleaner than docker too.

Historically unpaid commute originated before urban sprawl, car culture and a massive spike in population, it's been grandfathered in, but it's absolutely theft in the current environment, whether the job can be done at home or not. Posit 1 hr commute either way, that's 10hrs a week, and should probably get hazard loading as well. When unpaid commute originated it was more like 10-15 minutes walk per day.

One of the most significant and efficient policy changes to combat CO2 and other pollutants would be to legislate paid commuting (with just protection against discrimination for both employee and employer). Just watch every employer WFH everyone who can doing the obvious, not to mention improved quality of life, local services and being hugely popular. Expect one hell of a fight.

Garbage in, garbage out...

Damn I wish there was a line between 'hypothesis unsupported' and publish. Negative results are results too, and now someone else will try it and fail too. So much wasted time, but publishers...

Also it's martial, not marshal, which is reasonably important as martial means pertaining to war, i.e. the army running things.

Sure, but stay with me here, how about keeping the writers room on for long enough to finish the story as text, it's gotta be pretty cheap good will. I for one would be grudgingly accepting of that as an alternate until the streaming late stage capitalism shitshow realizes that while the quarterly might go up, killing shows willy nilly also kills networks long term. But, wish in one hand, spit in the other and see which fills up first. Sigh, Almost Human was gold.

Dev work in the uBlue family (and yes I use bazzite for dev) leans heavily on distrobox (think development containers). Took a bit to adapt but now I think it's the ducks nuts. Because you decouple the dev environment from the main, immutable OS you get a lot of wins, especially if you work with a lot of different projects as you can setup distroboxes specifically for each. AI code that only works with specific drivers / libraries / python with instructions only for Ubuntu or Arch, no worries, make up a distrobox, when you're finished archive it and spin it up later if needed. If you're only working one project on say LTS or something it's going to be much less of a win, but for the flexible developer it's a godsend.

As to doom emacs or whatever, I have a post install script for distroboxes that sets up my preferred environment for the big 3 (Fedora, Arch, Ubuntu), it's not hard. Very much a kill your darlings philosophy.

ETA Because of this workflow it really doesn't matter what the host OS is, so it may as well be something I can game on, and I'm fond of the Fedora relative stability with sharp, but not bleeding edge.

Observational bias : You remember only the bad ones, especially as they are the ones most likely to wake you, and thus cross the memory barrier to the conscious. You likely have good ones as well that you don't remember.

If it really bothers you consider keeping a dream journal for a few months which should make you able to remember more, and more of your dreams. If it turns out you really have no good dreams, the next step is to learn lucid dreaming and fix that shit. If that's too much work, you can try repeating "I will have good dreams" in your head as you go to sleep, you might be lucky.

Says vegnews.com ...

I hate how politicized, religiousized and most especially corparatized nutrition science is, bloody shitshow (and yes I struggle through the minefield that is primary literature).

You seem to be assuming that the volume is immediately replaced by the external atmosphere, which I doubt is valid, more likely that the volume of the person would decrease, at least temporarily. The weight of 1 Liter (assuming a massive fart) of air is 1.275g according to wolfram, so, using your density numbers above, 1.275 * 1.06/1.2 = 1.126g lighter. Measurable with a really good scale, if the 90ml fart volume is realistic (has to be more realistic I guess), that's ~.1g,

Think of yourself as a hot air balloon with a very tiny chamber, and when you release a 90 milliliter fart, you lose a little buoyancy and sink a little. You get heavier when you fart.

No, you get denser, but not heavier.

Cybersecurity: where defenders have to win every day and attackers only have to win once.

Anything like age verification should probably be handled with absolute minimum identifiable information (i.e. you're older than X true / false) from an authoritative source like say the people who give out IDs (because if they're broken into everyone's screwed anyway). Instead OzGov has dumped it in the laps of the corpos, who will hoover up pictures of IDs or faces instead. As of a couple of days beforehand there's still no actual information on these age verification protocols to my knowledge, very untransparent, very disturbing. Corpos being required to moderate their platforms would be good, this is not that.

Didn't Jesus rename most (?) of his disciples ? Likely better examples...

Eh, Syncthing-Fork is basically feature complete, it's not even a significant exploit threat (on gOS and constrained to local network and storage spaces in my case, but probably in general). I just pinned it at v2.0.11.2 in F-Droid and will wait for things to shake out. If things go badly there'll be a Syncthing-Fork-Fork, it's too critical to too many peoples workflows.

Perhaps a poisoning the well attack on AI scrapers?

Experienced here, did my time in Arch, learned a lot, perhaps even more than necessary, now retired to Fedora, then Bazzite and Aurora-dev. It just gets out of my way nicely. Something, something, Bell curve meme, plateau of enlightenment meme.

And I would absolutely recommend Arch to a technically competent gamer newcomer as the fastest way to get up to speed.

Horses, Courses.

Notable absence of Cowboy Bebop,

FWIW, I took the plunge with a iFixit kit to replace my Pixel7 spicy pillow battery. I'm reasonably handy but had never done a glued phone before. I sprung for a clampy, watched the video and it all went extremely smooth, ~ 1 hour.
