I find that setting the power profile to “Power-Saver” makes a huge difference.

KDE has support for that built-in, although I’m not sure, if distributions install the corresponding daemon on desktop systems: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/upower/power-profiles-daemon

You should be able to cycle through power profiles with Meta+B on KDE.
You can also see and change the profile via the systray icon for the battery, but on a desktop system, that presumably won’t be shown by default.

Otherwise, powerprofilesctl is also an option, as described in that link.

It was one of the stated goals for Servo itself to be designed like that. But I don’t think anyone at Mozilla expected Servo to take over from Gecko. They were already quite happy that they were able to incorporate Servo’s style engine and URL bar implementation and such into Gecko.

I don’t think that’s quite right. The Linux kernel, Firefox and Chromium all sit around 30 millions lines of code, last I checked, so if you add the rest of the operating system, it should still have more lines of code than the browser.

But yes, similar order of magnitude.

Oh, interesting. Now I wonder, if that’s why Germany and friends adopted it that way. We all imported our numerals from the arabs after all…

I’ve found that I’m actually less hungry throughout the day, if I skip breakfast. So, even when I then have lunch, I’m satiated much quicker.

My working theory is that my stomach shrinks when empty, in particular throughout the night. So, if I don’t shove down breakfast in the morning:

• My stomach can shrink even smaller until lunch.
• There is less empty space in the non-stretched stomach, so less hunger.
• When I do eat lunch, the smaller stomach fills up quicker, meaning I shove down less food for lunch, too, and therefore my stomach doesn’t get particularly stretched until dinner either.

Das Auto vor der Tür ist immer verfügbar – und das prägt das Nutzungsverhalten und man verliert den Bezug zu möglichen Alternativen. Zum Beispiel auch dazu, wie schnell man mit dem Rad oder zu Fuß auf Kurzstrecken ist.

Finde generell immer spannend, was für Vorstellungen Leute entwickeln, also nicht nur Autofahrer.

Letztens hat sich auch ein Kollege mit “Gute Fahrt!” verabschiedet und ich hab noch so geantwortet “Joa, ich laufe, aber danke!”.
Dann hat er mich auch erstmal ungläubig angeschaut, und noch gefragt “Also zum Bus, oder?”. Obwohl wir zwei Stunden vorher noch gequatscht hatten, dass er viel mit dem Fahrrad macht und ich gerne zu Fuß gehe.

Irgendwie die Vorstellung, dass ich jetzt tatsächlich von der Arbeit nach Hause laufe, war dann doch zu abstrus.

Their point is that the maintainer did not sign a contract that requires them to perform maintainer duties. They can choose to stop doing it at any point. They can choose to axe a feature that you deem essential. They can choose to rewrite the project in COBOL for the fun of it.

You may not like it, but that is how it is.
The only legal document involved is the license and any open-source license I’ve seen so far, has stated that the program is provided as is.

This is the license under which rsync is provided: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.en.html
See sections 15 and 16.

The only way you get to have a say in the matter, is by forking and becoming a maintainer yourself.

That’s not a PeerTube video. It’s just a podcast…

I mean, not everyone has to train their voice to sing low notes. If it’s just your natural range, you won’t have much choice but to sing bass.

Anecdotal, but I’ve also had to be called back the one time I was singing in a choir, because I was too loud compared to the rest.
To some degree, I imagine that’s a physics thing, due to having a larger (resonance) body and being able to push more air through the longer vocal cords. But of course, you also simply don’t need to be as present as the melody on top.

Nah, I first saw this photo many years ago…

Clap has an entry in their cookbook for a REPL:

• Derive-API: https://docs.rs/clap/latest/clap/_cookbook/repl_derive/index.html
• Builder-API: https://docs.rs/clap/latest/clap/_cookbook/repl/index.html

Of course, this works best for simple stuff, where you just have individual commands to parse.

For a Python-style REPL with a full-fledged language attached, I would not use that approach.
There’s probably some REPL languages implemented in Rust already out there, where you can look at their approach.

“The tool itself worked properly and functioned as intended; however due to a bug in a separate code path, the system did not properly verify that the email address provided by the individual requesting a password reset matched the email address associated with that user’s Instagram account,” said Meta in its breach notice.

Why is the chatbot providing the e-mail address in the first place? It should just have a function it can call that triggers an account reset mail to be sent for a given account, with no other parameters.

This statement reads like they wanted to shield their use of AI from critique, but in making it, they’ve admitted to a level of carelessness which could very well get them sued under the GDPR. What a load of hubris.

I kind of want to try it now, though. It’s a thing to fry rice before you cook it, so maybe you can also do that with oatmeal?

Well, it’s usually not the contractors that are most affected, but rather the land owners.

But yeah, archeological findings or WWII bombs can shut your construction down for months, if not forever.

What’s also always loved, is when your building or a neighboring building is so old that it’s declared a cultural heritage site.
My grandparents’ house came with a section of medieval city wall. They used it like an attic, because they weren’t allowed to put heating into there or anything like that, and you basically always needed a permit for structural changes.

The use of artificial intelligence in biology really isn’t new, though, and they’re likely not talking about LLM-style AI, but rather something like a genetic algorithm: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_algorithm

Hmm, seems to work like you want for me. Using Plasma 6.6 with the icons-only task manager…

Coming at it from the Rust ecosystem, I’d primarily opt for uploading release binaries somewhere. You don’t particularly need a setup script, since Rust programs are generally self-contained.

Publishing a package in addition to that really isn’t hard, but would be my secondary choice, since users are not likely to have cargo on their system.
Well, and cargo compiles on the target machine, which is great for supporting unusual architectures, but you may have C libraries included where it’s just a gamble whether you can compile them on a given target system.

Should perhaps add that you can generally run Linux distributions off of a USB stick for that first impression.

Just follow a tutorial for how to install Linux and when you see the actual installer on screen, you can just close the installer without installing and then click around in the UI.

It will be slow, because it’s running off that slow USB connection, but otherwise this is pretty much the operating system as it is when fully installed.

I do enjoy how much time they spent explaining that mommy and daddy are not arguing. Makes it feel all the more like they’re arguing.

Really doesn’t help, though, that they are effectively saying “stop doing that right now and explain yourself”.
Like, man, what predates this post? Did they ask the JIT devs before to submit a PEP and they just didn’t do it?

I will say, a lot of this impression comes just from how open-source works.
You can’t really go up to someone privately before you make the conflict public, because all communication is public.
And of course, many people are involved here. Setting a deadline and all that helps those people to actually get coordinated. Maybe the folks on the Steering Committee just know that to be the case…

Lots of folks also like the unmarketable names, because you know that it’s not a corporate project. You’re hearing about it, because it’s actually good, and not just because some startup got VC money to do marketing.

Heck, the reverse is true as well. This project is better specifically because it has that name. You just know some transfemmes are tirelessly hacking away at it, because they enjoy the silly name.
