It is not an OS with bubblewrap, you can still mess up your privacy / security if you want to, that includes phishing and social engineering.

Has nothing to do with Trump. Trump just made the need more obvious but these talks are not new.

You can configure them to pause them when you take them out of your ear, except when it is not an Apple device. They will refuse to do so, even though they clearly detect the event since you can no longer use the stem as a pause button when you do so.

Clearly they make it worse just because you didn't get an Apple device, so yeah idk what you're smoking but give me some.

The amount of redis-as-database, or X really, that I see deployed that practically make no sense is insane. I haven't run the numbers to make my following claim based on anything but my feelings, but just incompetent dev alone is probably what keeps cloud computing alive.

Nah they stopped caring as well. Developing an application for macOS is hell nowadays. I hate the state of things but both Apple and Microsoft dropped the ball. Linux is even worse, so yeah I don't see a reality out of this unless we actually create something that surpasses the web in all measures.

There are plenty of Rust based reverse proxies out there, why do you need to specifically rewrite nginx? You could also write a config adapter to Caddy, there are a billion options, but this is a wasted effort. The people who want to stick to their nginx configs won't use your project ever, and the people who actually care about security aren't going to use a vibe coded project.

I have no idea why you are making me spell this out, I thought it was pretty obvious.

Buddy, I think it is time to not engage with these models for a bit, you seem to have lost your mind.

Yeah I got one, why? You aren't learning anything, you are just copying code from other codebases and smashing it together to make some nginx-rust thingie... for what actual goal?

Actively detaching yourself from the problems of a technology doesn't suddenly make it a pointless exercise. It just puts into question whether you have any moral compass whatsoever.

It is all in the law, the problem is enforcement. 99% of the cookie banners on the web you'll encounter are in fact illegal.

If you ignore the health, ethical, social, moral, legal, financial, environmental issues then yeah you could embrace it I suppose.

I haven't had it in the past with PopOS or Fedora, but it could be that the nvidia drivers back then weren't an issue. I could try with another distro if you're curious, that laptop is mostly a sacrificial machine for testing out distros and other stuff.

I was only able to install the latest CachyOS image by modifying the boot arguments in grub of the live installer, after reading the lengthy log file it pooped out after the first install fail.

I have no idea why people recommend this to people who aren't actually deep into tech and linux already.

They most likely understood that it wasn't viable for anything. OpenAI just yolo'd it and now we're dealing with the fallout. I'm fairly certain that any management layer at google isn't going to say yes to "invest 5 billion to make 10 million" scheme that OpenAI, Anthropic, are currently running.

I hate Amazon and monopolies, but I hate companies that think opensourcing their code as a marketing stunt gives them more rights or whatever. If you don't want to opensource, then don't?!

Hope the 'marketing' had the desired effect. This entire article of pure AI noise was an absolute slog to get through to get to useful information. I have no idea how you view that as positive advertising.

Cool, I think they're pointless slabs of wasted material. If I could run macOS on a macbook neo so should I be able to on an iPad, and it would make it a useful device because I do not have to spend all my time inside a terminal app to make it useful.

This also ignores that mobile phones are now being used as an effective botnet. Just gotta get some poor devs to include your SDK and off you go.

AI companies make use of these botnets quite a bit as well. Why don't we hear more about it? because it is really really really hard to inspect what is actually happening on your phone. This post actually kinda disproves that the closed rent seeking model is better in any way.
