Obligatory eye-roll.
Do you use Arch by any chance?
PS. Two of my machines run Endeavour OS, the other MX XFCE ;-)
Music (mainly prog rock) and veggie loving, geeky cat butler living in Hertfordshire UK. A lover of all things LOTR (since I first read it over 50 years ago) scifi and what have you. Ex soldier (Royal Artillery) and other trades ;-)

EDIT: Also check if you legally can physically eliminate the drone in that case. It’s the most effective strategy.
Just tell the police you were clay pigeon shooting and the drone flew into your path.
In a word, no. They are focused on the Adobe name. A bit like Apple, lots of good alternatives but who wants to be seen with a ‘insert non fashionable name here’ phone. There was a time when Adobe was king, not anymore though.
This. No amount of excuses or lengthy explanations. It’s childish and unprofessional.
So what are we looking at, the next 5 years?
From the article
This would make charging phones, laptops, and even electric cars much more efficient and convenient.
It was a joke.
Thing is, if it’s non toxic, then it’s possibly safe. Maybe not pleasant, but not poisonous. Just as bad as pineapple on pizza.
Wonder how long it’ll be before we get suggestions about eating detergent capsules or drinking bleach to cure covid.
Training your AI on Reddit was never a good idea though, you just have to look at all the crap on there to realise that. Let’s just hope they didn’t use Facebook as well, or worse, Quora!
Thank you.
Thanks - and it’s no doubt intended and they might has well named it Fuhrer, but we need to stay better than them.
Have to play devil’s advocate here. I totally agree that naming your chatbot Aryan is a bit of a giveaway, but does it say that exactly anywhere? All I can see is Arya. That is a legitimate name, even more popular since Game of Thrones. This crap is bad enough without making false claims about it. We’d be quick enough to call the other side out when they made a false claim. We shouldn’t adopt their practices. We’re supposed to be better than that.
Yes, they had a million and one things designed to catch your head, knee, elbow, eye etc. What that diagram doesn’t make clear is the bench seat running down the centre for the operators and Command Post Officer (CPO) to sit on. Underneath that were the batteries for FACE, 8 (or possibly 6) great big 12v 100ah lead acid things.
Space was at a premium. In this pic I’m sitting with my back to the teleprinter and Bob Cooper was sitting on the commanders seat - it used to drop down and become a seat for a signaller :-)
This would have been taken about 1983/4
The computer used by the Artillery (the one I was trained on in the 80s) was called FACE and had a magnetic core memory of about 8k https://nigelef.tripod.com/fc_computer.htm
Skimmed through the video and will watch at a later date. Absolutely fascinating. It used to work at a Raytheon company (Cossor in HarlowvUK) on kit that had similar electronics, back in the 70s. It was like being back in the factory :-)
When I was in the Royal Artillery (80-97) we had a system called PADS (Precision Azimuth Determining System) that was used for survey of gun positions. It had some fancy gyroscopes inside. I now know where that originated ;-)
I’d try another distro - I’ve had issues with Mint and wifi in the past. MXLinux saw wifi when Mint didn’t. Or maybe Ubuntu.
Endeavour OS KDE. Sorry ;-)
Same here on Lenovo Ideapad(I think) and EOS. No problems at all.
Now imagine it printing out adverts whilst you’re not using it.
I thought it might be the ‘any’ key.
Looks like the are going all out with Copilot though.
Don’t know how Copilot works offline, OK neither does Google or Bing to a degree, but these systems are placing increasingly more load on round the clock connectivity. We don’t have decent 5G here in UK yet. Even 4G is patchy, and I’m in an urban area just north of London.
Should I worry though as I don’t use Windows, apart from work? Possibly not.
Or Winnie The Pooh.
