The AI doesnt understand the former, only the latter.
Do you possibly mean “The AI evangelists” or something similar?
Like, I could totally understand it in the “software will also include the biases of those who wrote it” kind of way (a la Amazon’s failed attempt at automating job candidate search). If the only incentive you’re given as a programmer is “make it make money”, then yeah, your AI is going to bias towards that end.
Just couldn’t tell on first reading

There’s probably a better way to do this, but I’ve just started using BLE Radar (F-Droid, Play Store), which can be set up to (among other things) tell you where your phone last saw a particular bluetooth address.
You don’t get the benefit of the tracking network that iPhones, and now Androids, are a part of, and it’s not built into the base system, but it’s FOSS, and your location data stays local.
Apparently, it’s actually quite common for directors of Godzilla movies to take inspiration from their cats for Godzilla’s mannerisms lol
I agree that if there was enough space in the recovery partition to begin with, this wouldn’t be a problem, but the user isn’t the party that specified that size or the party that decided to add enough stuff to the recovery partition to exceed that spec.
MS knows that this is a widely-deployed configuration (they deployed it), but they’re going ahead with an automatic update that is incompatible with that configuration anyway, failing to communicate to the user why the failure occurred, and refusing to automate a fix to the thing their automation broke in the first place.
Waow. MS can’t decide if their users should have control of their hardware or not.
Your linux bootloader and efi config? That belongs to Windows, and it will make changes as much as it wants. A recovery partition that has no usefulness outside their own ecosystem? Yeah, they know it’s fucked, and they fucked it, but it’s your computer, you fix it!
I don’t think it’s meant to be driven.
I mean… It’s not even meant to be a vehicle, tbh. It’s an ego trip, status symbol, or virtue signal (pick up to 3) in the form of a vehicle.
The part where it can propel itself and it’s occupants from place to place is, in fact, a bonus feature.
They get paid when the least amount of people they insure use their services. They’re not incentivized to help those they’ve insured. The less they have to pay out to providers, the better the executive bonuses. Thus, they are diligent in collecting premiums, but can just sit on their hands when it comes to paying out.
The more the system denies and delays a claim, the fewer insured people are willing or able to put themselves through the bureaucracy gauntlet, the fewer pay outs.
They’re not in the business of insurance, they’re in the business of making money from the business of insurance. It’s over-complicated on purpose.
Running Arch, so not really exposed, but still had a compromised version installed.
Me: fixes exposure to vuln
Also me: grabs popcorn
This is going to be an interesting story once this all quiets down…
When the herb in the bowl is deep, gotta get the flame deeper, so either get gud, or burny fingy.
Like, people have been using regular lighters for this for forever, so it’s not a necessity, just easier.
This has less to do with distro, and more to do with Desktop Environment choice. Anything on Wayland is great with touchscreens. I’m on Plasma, and it’s pretty fantastic.
No, you’ve got it set up right. Many people will have graphs where each character rectangle has open circles for the unused braile dots in the character block.
Pro tip: configure a font that doesn’t show open circles for unused braille characters to have a higher priority than your current font to get better-looking graphs.
On my system, braille characters are provided by DejaVu Serif, and it was as easy as just installing the font.
I’ve had issues with family link staying linked on a steam deck with zero hardware changes, so it could be unrelated to your hardware changes fwiw.
Discussion and suggestions welcome :)
My uncle missed Thanksgiving 2019 because he was in an Arkansas hospital for “untreatable viral pneumonia” and the various complications that came with it. Shit was fucking everywhere already by then.
