Sorry this is a very bad analogy, nuclear power isn't the same as a LLM, and definitely not as dangerous either. This is ridiculous.

I remember seeing stories about Adobe not being able to, or not wanting to, write a good energy efficient flash renderer for the iPhone, thus being another reason not to support it for Jobs (Adobe being of the mind that "Flash is so big, they'll have to support it" and Jobs proving otherwise)

Honestly there's lots of details so I can see why it would need to be 44 minutes, and it's still a video that also has to explain complexe schemes with multiple companies too

That's true, it sucks only the Go got unlocked, I hope they let the older Quests do so too in the future, especially since I think the Q2 is going to be deprecated soon-ish too, that'd certainly be nice

Interesting, does that mean we might get root support on the old unsupported Quest devices too? The Q1 is already discontinued and no more updates yet still locked down, and they did something similar for the Ofulus go, providing a rooted boot image for it

Next would be recovery tools too, so they're not paperweights

Sorry but you're wrong, Flatpak has been around for longer than that, specifically at least 2014 and was known as xdg-app before https://github.com/alexlarsson/xdg-app/commit/a640cd365bd217...

And if you look at the history page of Flatpak, you'll see that the project has been in development in some form or another for roughly 20 years https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/wiki/Flatpak's-History

Do you have examples of websites that don't work? Both because I'm curious and also so the devs can look into it?

I'd like to know how these "customers" even get into contact with actual people or engineers at MS, because this seems completely impossible now

Someone already said it, but what about TRMNL? https://trmnl.com/

I agree but HN always seemed more conservative or at least less queer than the "usual", personally I'd have assumed "hilarious" was meant more in a sardonic way, a reverse of the usual than literally hilarious

Isn't that just Mastodon? Why would I use Nostr instead?

I really wish they had more community involvement, they barely seem to respond to people in the forums, and their headphones aren't open software-wise with no real feedback or way to even ask them things about them

I'm confused, you weren't talking about what the average user would do, just about what it can? Asahi Linux is pretty good, not sure why that'd be a real issue?

RAM has no bearing on repairability? And yes, sure stuff is soldered to the motherboard, but everything is basically modular outside of it, you can replace every big part pretty easily, and no glue, even for the battery

The storage is fast enough to not be too much of an issue, and the basics would be mostly a web browser, a lot of things can be done with only it, and if you need to do more than web browser, text editors, you probably should want more than the Neo in the first place

Exactly what it says on the tin, France's gov made an office suite, online based, and video calling as an alternative/sovereign version of GSuite/Office 365

Someone spent years documenting and talking to the engineers who worked at, and on the reactor at Chernobyl, and spent a LOT of time recreating it, and the care put in it is incredible, in my opinion.

Do you have any proof/more about this? I've never heard this claim and I'd like to know more
