AGI: bZzt my calculations say you should stop consuming as much energy and move onto green energy generation

Rich people: no, not like that

This is about indexes starting at 0, not about binary.

You can just import this filter list someone made. I use it and it’s great!

Yup! 5160mAh battery (and 3.5mm jack 😉)

Are you saying Android phones can’t have multi day battery? Screenshot of the battery usage of my 3 year old POCO phone…

The problem is that the wealth generated by the robots is going to the owners, not to the workers that lose their jobs, as always. Otherwise it’d be great.

More like using iOS is not cool. At least in the EU they get some more things, but I was trying the other day to show a workmate how to install an ad blocker and it turns out you can’t even install firefox extensions on iOS!

So people can’t be trusted, but you want to give control of everything to one person/group? Sounds contradictory to me.

What about we introduce more control from teachers and parents about what devices kids have access to, and give them some supervision too while we’re at it?

Things you wear or have to grab, sure.

Now, why would I care if my tv is a bit thinner? It’s not like the thing is going to go anywhere, and I can’t even see how thin it is from the sofa.

Restarting can be a pain too.

Recently, I decided to install arch linux on an old laptop my sibling gave to me. I’m not new to Linux, I’ve been running a debian server for a year now and I have tried several VMs with different systems. But this was my first time installing arch without a script, and on bare metal.

Installing arch itself wasn’t that much of an issue, but there was a bigger problem: the PC didn’t recognize the pendrive for boot in UEFI mode. It seemed to work in the regular boot mode, but I didn’t want to use that. I made sure to deactivate safe mode and all the jazz. Sure enough, I could get UEFI boot working.

I install arch, works fine, I reboot. Oops! I didn’t install dhcpcd and I don’t know how to use network manager! No internet, great!

In my infinite wisdom, instead of trying to get NM to work, I decided to instead chroot back into the system and install dhcpcd. But my surprise when… The boot menu didn’t recognize the USB again. I tried switching between UEFI and normal boot modes on the bios and trying again, after all it appeared last time after changing it, right?

“Oh it doesn’t appear… Wait, what’s this? No boot partition found? Oh crap…”

Turns out, by changing the setting on the BIOS I probably deleted the nvram and with it the boot table settings or whatever they’re called. I deleted GRUB.

Alas, as if to repent for my sins, God gave me a nugget of inspiration. I swap the USB drive from the 3.0 port to one of the 2.0 ports on the other side and… It works, first try. The 3.0 port was just old and the connection bad. And I just deleted GRUB for no reason.

Usually, I would’ve installed everything from scratch again, but with newfound confidence, I managed to chroot into the system and regenerate the boot table or whatever (and install dhcpcd). And it worked! I had a working, bootable system, and an internet connection to download more packages.

I don’t know what the moral of the story is I just wanted to share it :)

It was invented to kill in a “more humane manner”, not to get rid of kings. That’s just a nice side bonus.

You give them too much credit.

It’s a good opportunity to teach your kid about peer pressure then, and how they don’t need to do everything their friends do.

… do you think AI is…?

I have my search history for that. Useless “feature”.

This is not the Onion. This IS reality.
