Well yes it needs to be inaugurated first, which will not happen until January.

It’s just less visible/explicit. It’s still bad press when it gets noticed and called out like in this thread, it’s just sneakier.

Security implications?

People working with these technologies have known this for quite awhile. It’s nice of Apple’s researchers to formalize it, but nobody is really surprised-- Least of all the companies funnelling traincars of money into the LLM furnace.

What if I’m already pretty good at Python and C? :)

How do you learn? I have some ESP32s that I’ve messed around a little bit with, and done some neat stuff…But I don’t have an electronics background at all and I often have trouble even figuring out how to power the damn things safely.

I feel like you just shout things into the void and people give you points for agreeing with you.

Lol at first I thought this was a direct criticism of the person you were replying to.

Well, have a nap

THEN FIRE ZE SAMSUNG & LG CEOS!

That’s super interesting. How do you get started at something like that? Or where would a newcomer start to learn more about it?

Look, they only had $70m to work with, okay? You gotta make some compromises when you’re on such a shoestring budget.

Let us not forget the revolutionary idea to-- now pay attention cause this is BIG-- to prioritize player experience! Can’t believe nobody has thought of that before.

+1 for “it’s unusably slow!”

I tried this last year with Linux Mint, and I learned that a normal USB drive just doesn’t have the read/write speed to even e.g. operate Firefox smoothly. There are different ways to address that, none of which really did the trick for me, so the best bet is to just get a drive with the fastest read/write rate possible. I’ve heard that it can run tolerably well on one of those more performant drives, but I didn’t try it myself.

Same experience with my relatives. I had some family whose Macbooks were no longer able to update (for Apple forced obsolescence reasons). They run Mint now, and have never had a single problem since I first set them up.

Well, one of them called me because they couldn’t figure out how to attach a file to an email… But that problem would have been identical on Mac OS.

Barbed wire gardens. Painful to get in, painful to get out.

E x a c t l y! On Windows/Mac, you’re less inclined to be charitable, because most of the time you’re facing down artificially-imposed limitations on how you can interact with your own machine. They seem to say “You’re too dumb to be allowed to mess with that,” which is a tolerable slight if it Just Works every time… But when it doesn’t, ohhh boy…

I think they dissed “corporate cities,” which I interpreted as related to company towns, like the so-called Foxconn City or iPhone City in China. Not cities in general.

Some suburbs are nice, too.

Ah but you see, you need the blockchain version in order to be, uh… [checks notes] computationally intensive and bad for the environment…?

Sound was quite atrocious, downvoted 👎

Oh nice-- Maybe those would be better recommendation for this purpose, then. I love Resolve, but I wouldn’t want to tell a new Linux user “It doesn’t work on your distro, but you can MAKE it work if you are computers enough.”
