2MW also isn’t much

It’s a proof of concept, they’re not actually trying to power anything with this. They’re just checking their math on a small scale before doing the full scale lol

At the time of posting, my most powerful computing device was my phone lol

Unless your threat modelling includes nation-states

At which point you should have a handful of extra layers

This is anecdotal

Not just anecdotal. The default SSH port gets hit by ridiculous numbers of bots because a lot of people don’t bother to change it. This will be true no matter what machine you’re on. Hell, your desktop at home has probably been scanned quite a few times even if all you do is watch porn on it

What do I care what language the library is written in as long as it works for what I need it do?

Doesn’t matter what it implies. The entire purpose of programming is to make it so a human doesn’t have to go do something manually.

not x tells me I need to go manually check what type x is in Python.

len(x) == 0 tells me that it’s being type-checked automatically

Honestly most people use Python because it has fantastic libraries. They optimize it because the language is middling, but the libraries are gorgeous

ETA: This might double post because my Internet sucks right now, will fix when I have a chance

If I could get the adsp

Author Domain Signing Practices? Requires internet access by the looks of my quick search, so your race is between your Ethernet/wifi and the boot-up process. The only ways to fix it are to make the computer connect to the Internet faster, which is impossible for many. Most people substitute by adding a delay for getting into user space until after connection is establish

There quite a handful of IoT devices out there that will run Linux too. Many of them, in fact, run BSD by default

Ya never know you’re in the good ol days till they’re over

I’m just gonna chalk this up to you not understanding my points literally at all and stop having this conversation. You are insufferable to talk to and outright refuse to see my point at all.

Okay, fine. I’ll do big words with you.

Let’s talk about the difference between Ethics and Morals. Ethics are what you individually follow, it’s your Ethos. Morals are what a society follows.

It may be morally correct to say that “people should be allowed to do as they please” while also ethically correct to say “you shouldn’t disrespect people’s wishes.”

You’re right, that it is moral for someone to imitate art. At least, in our culture. But that’s because most people follow the ethos that they can do and take as they please. I personally hold myself to a higher standard than that, and I hope you can do the same some day.

Edit to add: Fuck the golden rule. Follow the Platinum rule.

What do you make of the use of email in the business world? You’re right that quite a bit of that has turned into instant messaging as well, ie I text my boss instead of sending them mail but it definitely feels like that’s going away a lot slower if not expanding

I’m curious, not bashing. What signs have you seen that lead you to believe email is dying?

You really just wrote 4 paragraphs to say “I wanna make other people upset for my own personal gain at little to no benefit to the world at large”

Not sure when the last time you tried doing this is, but it’s pretty easy these days. KDE connect can pretty much handle most of the HTPC necessities. Alternatively, a debloated Onn box will do the trick quite easily

I’m suggesting that disrespecting an artists wishes causes them unnecessary struggles which in turn unnecessarily makes it more difficult for them to do their work.

Do you know what the word unfettered means?

Edit to add: Why are you arguing for disrespecting people’s wishes?

I didn’t say they needed respect to be creative. I said they needed respect to be creative unfettered.

So, to recap, your position is this:

Artists do not deserve the respect that would allow them to be creative unfettered. Gotcha.
