What a waste of money, seriously

I bought a 5 year old Lenovo x13 and installed Debian on it, haven’t used linux in years but wanted to play around.

Installed, logged in for the first time and got the ‘welcome to KDE’ screen, dismissed it and then… nothing.

Every time I log in… nothing.

It just sits there waiting for me to do something. It doesn’t tell me to do anything. I’ve been mostly using it to play Civ2.

There’s something weird about it. My phone needs to be hyper secure, and a lot of companies went to monetize that and introduce insecurities with their software.

That’s why I love my iPhone, but I’m not super happy about what happens with my Mac.

There’s something in the reality that it’s the app developers not the user that are being restricted by Apple. Apple keeps the app developers from doing things I don’t like for the most part. I don’t feel very restricted.

But I don’t want my computer to become a walled garden. It’s only OK for my phone.

This is related to the somewhat troubling fact that globally, shares held exceed shares issued by about 50%. (And before you flee to gold, gold held exceeds gold in existence by about 100%.)

Do you have a source to back up these claims? A quick search doesn't yield anything

Certainly big for China, but if it can't run CUDA then it's not going to help them catch up in the AI race

If you're worried about someone accessing your unlocked computer to install LLMs, you might need to rethink your security model.

Wow those bugs are really something

Are these available as an npm package? Would make for a great April Fools prank

Really sad about this. I recently bought another Android and was checking out the PinePhone Pro, but only wanted something with a little better specs..

Yes, I am sure what you say is true, but eventually the article(s) in question will be corrected, or tagged in some manner.

But just look at what Trump is doing to the Smithsonian, one example is turning US Slavery History into something even all slaves loved. Or erasing Trump's 2 Impeachments.

You and everyone with even a little bit of smarts knows the articles that will be first targeted is US Slavery History and Trump's multiple Impeachments.

Even if whitehouse.gov rewrites history, or forces reputable outlets to make "corrections", Wikipedia articles can (and do) reference archives.

I used to (and still am) one of the highest ranked editors you can be without becoming an administrator. Wikipedia has its problems, and I spent years fighting them- but I slowly realized there is no better way to do it.

Wikipedia is not an arbitrator of truth: everything needs a reliable, secondary source[0]. This means the content has to be notable enough that a reputable source wrote about it, and you cannot reference things like git commits or research papers (since they don't provide context and most people can't understand them).

If a Wikipedia article does use one of those sources, delete the paragraph. If you get into an Edit war, you'll win.
