Why does Google Forms look like Microsoft Teams?

I thought X was the everything app?

Gotta find something else to grate your cheese.

I was supposed to get a device with 64 gigs of RAM later this year. I just got an email telling me that due to the RAM shortage they’ve cancelled the 64 gig version.

Tim Sweeney has a shitty take? Must be a day ending in Y!

He wants everyone to become prompt engineers sloperators.

I think OP is talking about the fact that most new projects use “main” now, so “master” likely indicates an older project.

As someone who owns several RISC-V devices the primary thing preventing usable (low end) RISC-V laptops is the GPUs. Most RISC-V silicon has Imagination GPUs, and the current state of the drivers there is “proprietary drivers stuck on an old LTS kernel.”

If someone makes an RVA23 compliant chip with open mainstreamable drivers and a BXS-4-64 GPU (or, better yet, somehow manages to license a GPU from Intel or AMD for it), that’ll be a cash cow.

For fun.

Another win for Linux!

I don’t care if they’re selling computers to fascist psychos.

I do care that they’re using their soapbox to promote those fascist psychos.

This is essentially Google moving to do what I always thought was Apple’s malicious compliance on the DMA, but which European courts seem to have accepted as just fine. I’m pretty miffed at Google for sinking to Apple’s level on this.

Honestly? Get a large monitor and a sound bar.

If I were in the market for a new monitor and I could get an 8k monitor for under $1000 I’d consider it, but right now if one of my monitors broke I’d just be getting another 4k to replace it. The price isn’t worth it for me to have high DPI.

For TV my only justification for my 4k TV is that it was free.

I initially read that as “stop using VPNs to watch child porn, ministers told” and was expecting a very different article.

Integer storage in spreadsheets… There are a ridiculous number of ways to store any integer, and I don’t just mean because you could theoretically store 1 and 00000001 and they’d be interpreted as the same thing.

Given that part of my job is evaluating applicants’ ability to do the job, and given that LLMs are very good at answering the sort of questions many people ask in interviews, AI is making my job significantly harder.

If someone could make a prompt that actually made an LLM write good code, I wouldn’t have nearly as much of an issue.

I would agree, except that every piece of it is significantly more complex than it needs to be. ODF is considerably simpler in part because it makes use of other pre-existing standards for things like dates and times. OOXML redefines so many of those things, and in many cases Microsoft Office’s implementation isn’t actually compatible with their own standard.

I’m grateful to Microsoft for Windows 11 providing me a bunch of free machines to stick in my basement and put Linux on.

My experience with Apple has been more like
