It’s disingenuous and probably harmful to be telling people to disable updates that lead them to be exposed to vulnerabilities.

That is probably why Microsoft forced updates on people in W10.

Since no one is explaining and I have only ever heard of Rabbit on Lemmy (again with no context, probably a US thing), here is a Kagi quick answer:

what is rabbit and r1?

Based on the available information, the Rabbit R1 is a new AI-powered device developed by a tech startup called Rabbit Inc. and designed by Teenage Engineering. The key details about the Rabbit R1 are:

• It is a standalone handheld gadget about half the size of an iPhone, with a 2.88-inch touchscreen and a rotating camera for taking photos and videos. 【1】【2】
• The Rabbit R1 is powered by an AI assistant and is intended to help users interact with various apps and services on their smartphone, essentially acting as a remote control. 【3】【4】
• It connects to the internet via 4G LTE and Wi-Fi, allowing it to provide real-time information and assistance. 【5】
• The Rabbit R1 currently supports integration with apps like Uber, Spotify, Midjourney, and DoorDash, allowing users to control these services through the device. 【6】
• Reviews of the Rabbit R1 have been mixed, with some criticizing its unreliable performance, inaccurate answers, and short battery life. 【7】【2】

In summary, the Rabbit R1 is an AI-powered handheld device that aims to provide a more convenient way for users to interact with various apps and services on their smartphones. However, it seems the device still has some issues that need to be addressed.

Why is this posted in Technology? I want to read about cool tech, not some stupid guy’s sex life.

I switched to Linux on my laptop full time ~6 months ago. If had to reinstall my OS a few times since to fix issues, but pop_os (what I am using) has a nice feature that keeps the home folder. All my data is preserved and OS is refreshed (Windows has this as well)

Didn’t think about that. Thanks

The game also requires a renderer (browser) to play.

I think what they did is impressive but the claim about the size feels like taking source code and saying “look how small on disk it is”

It is so good that when I use Google on someone else’s computer, I’m surprised at how bad Google has become.

Honest question, why would it cost money?

I (almost) only use LaTeX now, I find it easier than having to manually set headings etc. I find it great even for just one page notes.

The few times I do not use it is when I have to colab on a document with someone else.

LaTeX, code and compile your documents instead of fighting with word.

Just look at all the people getting frustrated at being told “you should probably do it a different way.” They really don’t understand that just because they’re asking the question, it’s not all about them.

I don’t agree. I remember having a problem (something with PDF and JS if I remember correctly) and I had some restrictions (no I could not do anything about those restrictions). Someone on SO had asked my question with somewhat the same restrictions, which boiled downed to no being able to utilize the most common solution. The first answer on SO was to use the solution that specifically could not be used.

I can see your point and I actually somewhat agree but when the answers are “do X” to the question “how do I do this when I cannot do X?”, the audience should be the minority going there because they have a niece problem, not the majority that are lead there by search engines. And all the “do X” answers should be removed, or moved somewhere they are relevant.

Just comment or comment with post?

How did you do that? My laptop is at 14gb now and I am not using it (typing on phone)

SolarWinds since they’ve already been hacked?

It’s almost like the Tesla cars where you started the engine via the touch screen.

Is it otherwise automatic? I never use the manual option for automagic gears.

Imagine changing gear without feeling which gear you have/changed to.

I remember reading about voice actors being asked to sell their voice for something aimed related. Could be this.

But that is not the fault of Steam Deck, which was discussed.

If function does not return Result and returns just value directly, you (as a function caller) are guaranteed to always get a value, you can rely on there not being a failure that the function didn’t handle internally.

The difference being where you handle the error?

It sounds to me like Java works in kinda the same way. You either use throws Exception and require the caller to handle the exception when it occurs, or you handle it yourself and return whatever makes sense when that happens (or whatever you want to do before you do a return). The main difference being how the error is delivered.

Java has class similar to Result called Optional.
