Iran was/is Russian ally. Very prominent part of Russia is Chechnya. It is islamic and its leader is effectively Putins favorite pet. It is not as bad as Iran in treatment of women, but it is also not like Russia would care one bit about that.
Yes, but ultimately. Just like transporters, it was pulled out of Roddenberry's arse. We could have have a long debate about how society would work if transporters were a thing, but that doesn't make transporters possible.
The exact same issue arises with it's society. We can imagine it, that doesn't necessarily make it real. Yes WW3 sounds like a good reason, but it's a story, it's a plausible sounding reason.
So yes I am biased, in that I am aware of the future that star trek presents, and on the face of it, it would solve the problems I see coming. But none of that makes it possible.
Even on non-pixel devices, unless you really want to use the /e/ "ecosystem, there are probably better options like LineageOS for microG iodéOS.
(/e/ used to be heavily based on an outdated version of LineageOS for microG. I'm not sure what the current state is after I settled on second-hand pixel with graphene)
Not that it matters but I just noticed certain titles on their website can be edited. For example the text "Use our /e/OS Installer" can be modified and I noticed it because I accidentally pasted my clipboard there. I suppose contenteditable should be set to "false".
fuck me i'm doing work even though i should be working right now
Brave has perverse incentives to discontinue it because of their BAT crypto business model that rewards looking at ads.
Unfortunately even the fully open source Firefox isn't immune to the pressure from the advertising industry, with all their Google funding and their purchase of anonym.
For people that use it and have used kitty, how do you find it better?
I don't want to be pedantic or anything I just want to know if I'm missing out, I installed some time ago but didn't find anything really interesting
I'm on /e/OS and don't use Murena Workspace (which I think is just a Nextcloud instance that they host). For the past couple of years in which I've used it, I have felt zero pressure to use Murena Workspace. Though I imagine it might be neat if you host your own Nextcloud instance, which might be nicely integrated too.
(That said, yes, I don't quite trust their VPN or app store, since it's unclear who's running it - in the latter's case, I imagine that's also a legal matter.)
And while we're speaking of people that hold guns to everyone's heads, there is one country that is waging war all over the world. It's govt also executed people in broad daylight for the crimes of taking their kid to school and helping a person beaten up by the administration's goons. Would you entertain the idea of similar airstrikes against the head of that country?
> Iran is supporting massive conflicts in Yemen, and is building non-defensive weapons capabilities.
Modern versions of standard C aren't very portable either, unless you plan to stick to the original version of K&R C you have to pick and choose which implementations you plan to support.
Because, thinking bigger picture, having an AI assistant acting on your behalf might be more effective than slow navigation via accessibility features?
I get the wider point that if accessibility features were good enough at describing the functionality and intent then you wouldn't need a separate WebMCP.
So what does WebMCP do that accessibility doesn't?
Seems to me, at cursory reading, it's around providing a direct js interface to the web site ( as oppose to DOM forms ).
Kind of mixing an API and a human UI into one single page.
It’s a very principled and well reasoned stance. Think it underestimates the relentlessness of progress and capitalism though. Short of those that are independently wealthy and can do artisanal things for the sake of it I suspect most shortly won’t have a choice
Motorola has committed to 7 years of support for the 2026 variants of the devices which will provide GrapheneOS support in 2027. There's still a lot of work to do in order to meet the GrapheneOS hardware requirements and there isn't going to be support for the existing devices. The whole point is they're working with us to improve their updates and hardware-based security features so that all our requirements are met. The stock OS is also a different thing than the official GrapheneOS support where we'll be making builds with their help. We'll be continuing to provide security preview patches and intend to move to newer kernel LTS branches than Qualcomm if they don't do it themselves. GrapheneOS won't have to use their stock OS to get firmware, etc. as we do for Pixels.
Why is this so complicated? Store a session id that points to the full conversation artifacts (off repo) with the git commit and look it up ad hoc as needed. Why do the conversations need to be in the git repos?
My boss at my first job hit the Big Red Button by swinging his arms too big in our datacenter one day, shutting down hundreds of servers and the mainframe, wreaking havoc for days!
That was when we installed the Big Clear Button Cover.
"Also - study the code of the likes of Carmack. Consider that he produced the likes of the quake engines in only a couple of years. Reflect long and hard on the raw simplicity of a lot of that code."
Also says something about the accumulation of complexity. At that time Carmack (and his team) were able to create a state of the art engine in a few years. Now consider the task today, if you were to create a state of the art engine today it'd take tremendously more work.
Mobile payments used to work without any interference from Google through a bank's own implementation of the wireless payment protocols. On iPhone you got stuck with Apple's system (they restricted their NFC stack so competitors couldn't do this) but most phones were paying wirelessly without Google ever seeing a transaction.
Over the years banks phased out their NFC support and all moved to Google Wallet on Android, I think the last bank finished their transition a year and a half ago. A real shame.
> that engines help a lot with? Like... multiplayer netcode.
Rust (the top 10 most downloaded game ever on Steam) is built with Unity. However they ended up to write their own netcode anyway. Of course Unity isn't known for the best netcode, but how much an engine helps is often overstated. Genshin even bought Unity's source code to customize it.
