Uh... sometimes? First time I clicked it seemed to work, but a subsequent click gave me that 403 error.

For me that link says:

Don't you think that as LLMs get better the deanonimization attacks will get easier?

Also, a journalist in a hostile regime might be one example, but a user that posted _very_ personal things under an alt account is also another example, and I bet the latter is much more common than the former.

AFAIK B&W 800D is used in many mastering studio's. I wonder what they will do with their high-end / pro audio segment, since it's quite different from your average home stereo (or even hi-fi) markets.

I'd say that after numerous revelations in regards to UEFI vulnerabilities and such, an open source BIOS / EFI has become a necessity for me rather than something just nice to have.

Considering Intel's track record on hardware vulnerabilities, I'd much rather prefer AMD.

I _really_ hope they launch an AMD version (perhaps with an iGPU) soon after that. That and preferably with Libreboot support. This would make it the ideal portable laptop for me and thus I'd be able to (finally!) replace my X220T.

Does it have ECC and Coreboot / Libreboot support?

For sure this. I've recently found out that you can only pay using credit card, US bank account or Cash App.

As long as private trackers have absurd seeding rules and require you to sign up (initially) without your VPN active, I won't be touching them with a ten foot socket.

Really hoping for some nice performance improvements because my first time experience with VSE hasn't been that swell so far: https://old.reddit.com/r/blender/comments/186bbll/my_experie...

Would you say that this could run (smoothly) on my X220 with i7-2640M?

I think you have to have WSL for this to work, but this is how I do it on Linux with Xorg:

  sleep 3 ; xdotool type --delay 5 "$(xclip -selection c -o)"  ## Force-paste the secondary paste buffer (Ctrl+Shift+c)

Can't edit my post, but I think I've found a place that fits my requirements: https://forevernoob.hashnode.dev/the-beginning - In any case I'll try to update as I go.

Thanks for the pw-profiler recommendation, wasn't aware of that one.

I believe the Pro Audio profile [0] (which I'm using) doesn't resample by default.

Using pw-top, I noticed that something was causing xruns [1] (see ERR column) though I was unsure what that was. Since the Pro Audio profile uses the IRQ mechanism, I looked at interrupts [2] but couldn't spot anything unusual. There is however irq/16-mmc0 process which is at times causing significant (>50%) CPU usage, so I think I need to unload the sdcard module and see if that fixes anything.

First however I think I'll try a newer kernel (linux-lowlatency-hwe-22.04, which according to apt search is on 6.2.0.1017.17~22.04.14 as opposed to the current 5.15.0-89-lowlatency that ships with Ubuntu 22.04)

I hope the pro audio side gets a bit more love. I've installed PW for the first time on my Ubuntu 22.04 (through https://pipewire-debian.github.io/pipewire-debian/) and so far have been experiencing high CPU usage on Bitwig Studio v5.0.11 when trying to send audio from and to my Native Instruments Komplete Audio 6, and I have no idea what the culprit might be.

I'm going to try a bunch of stuff and hopefully be able to take advantage of this wonderful technology (that has already come _so_ far!)

I should probably document my troubleshooting ventures. Does anyone know a nice hosted blog that supports Markdown / CommonMark and RSS syndication? Is Substack a good option?

Not to diminish the legacy of curl, but wget exists as well, right? Pretty sure a lot of machines use wget instead of curl.

Wait, isn't one of the benefits of such federation that (the equivalent of) subreddits _don't_ live on one specific instance? So if an instance goes down for whatever reason, that subreddit still maintains its existence since it's shared across other instances.
