I wonder if this would allow an anti-cheat system to get acceptable trust of a system without having to access ring 0.

Of course, we’d then need the OS / kernel images to be signed. I think most gamers run stock kernels anyway.

I just don’t want see the garbage that is the Android Play Store where apps refuse to run because we run an OS that isn’t profitable to Google.

Software bloat will hurt more and will require re-thinking. Efficiency will matter again.

This is the next battlefront. I already see it happening. Software requiring significantly more resources with each iteration to do the same job.

They’re going to try and push us off older devices, and hope we use their devices instead.

I wasted an hour this week expaining to CoPilot why it was wrong and dismissing every suggestion it made in a code review. In all of it, it didn’t spot a legitimate problem. It’s running at a near 100% false positive rate. I absolutely would not accept a code suggestion from it blindly.

What’s weird is that facebook only fills my feed with slop when I open in on my phone.

On my desktop browser, my feed only contains things I have subscribed to.

I logged out from my phone. It’s just unusable.

He’s like 90 years old and I watched him do a 2 hour gig and only took one sip of coke halfway. I have no idea how he does it.

I’ve been taught that advancing on that is grounds for rape. Removing a bra and throwing it at you is not consent.

Not sure if sarcasm, so don’t ask.

I hope somewhere in this, someone points out that you cannot bookmark your friends feed. You can bookmark marketplace, or any other part of the site.

When you do manually navigate to your friends, you get pushed back to the infinite slop feed after almost every action.

They did this deliberately so you can’t use facebook to keep tabs on your friends. You know, like it was originally built for.

The cravings for booze and sugar get so bad at night after a day working at a desk. It’s hard to get to sleep when you’re jittery. The cravings don’t even go away on a full stomach. I sometimes feel completely bloated from snacking and somehow feel like my sugar level is tanking at the same time. It’s impossible to eat your way out of it. It takes about two standard drinks to calm it, and that’s way too much to drink as regularly as these cravings occur.

Exercise throughout the day seems to help. It’s not an issue when on vacation.

I’m betting it stopped in the path of it. Either by pulling out in front of it, or sitting on the inside of the truck whilst turning.

Winkler actually took up water skiing IRL.

Don’t threaten us with a good time.

I figure I don’t have time unless I get 8 hours of sleep and still have the time. This never happens, so the answer is “never”.

Example.com recently had an issue where its traffic was found being routed to the wrong place (its traffic should get discarded).

I use it for email accounts on test data in environments with a live mail server configured. The point of this domain is that it doesn’t work.

I’m fairly sure it’s all the antivirus, which in itself is a kernel rootkit. The whole laptop is getting replaced in a month so there’s not much point in fixinig it.

Yep. With active fans.

I fired up procexp and found nessus scanning every file on my drive. I found the SentinelOne had written 10GB of logs since start. I found some bullshit dell service was slamming the CPU. It’s all shit that my company put there.

I found that it adds an extra 7 minutes to a 12 minute build when I compile my project, compared to doing it on WSL. The Windows bloat is insane.

Can we use the same logic for motorscooters?

Linux doesn’t waste RAM. All unused RAM becomes a disk read cache, but remains available on demand.

I have 32GB on my Windows PC laptop it can’t do three at once.

Running the backend (java) and the frontend (react native) in intellij uses 29GB RAM, so I must run Android on real hardware over ADB+USB. Running an android simulator pushes it over the edge.

Also: Laptops are shit. On Windows, the tau is so bad that the cores are throttled straight after boot because the cooling is rubbish. It almost never hits full speed. It can’t survive more than 40 minutes on a full battery. It might as well be a NUC.

I upgraded mine from 16GB to 32GB two years ago beacuse RAM was cheap. I didn’t really need it, and have probably never hit 16GB usage anyway.

Meanwhile my work Windows laptop uses 16GB at idle after first login.

Windows has always been wasteful computing, and everyone just pays for it.
