They’re both “immutable” in the sense that they’re setting up either read-only Filesystem Hierarchies (as in bazzite, which uses ostree) or Symlinking their entire filesystem hierarchy to a read-only “store” (as in nixos).

Bazzite uses something called ostree to “diff” the filesystem hierarchy much like git does, while Nix basically makes giant read-only store of files and hashes them, then weaves them all together into a “view” of a filesystem that gets symlinked into the context of a running program.

A real flatpak cake would come wrapped in the oven used to bake it.

It’s not just that, it’s also the fact they scored the responses based on user feedback, and users tend to give better feedback for more confident, even if wrong, responses.

And then when those AI also have issues do we use the AI to check the AI for the AI?

Unless revanced somehow gets the APKs resigned it will almost certainly destroy revanced.

I don’t agree with a total ban, but the writers of the article downplaying the harmful content on YouTube I think have forgotten the multiple times YouTube has gotten in trouble with advertisers for shit like “elsagate” where they were showing mutilation etc. of Disney characters targeted at children.

There needed to be some kind of regulation, but an outright ban is a bit much.

This feels like they’re trying to drive a tack with a sledgehammer.

Well, Stable Diffusion 3 supposedly purposefully removed all porn from their training and negatively trained the model on porn and it apparently destroyed the model’s ability to generate proper anatomy.

Regardless, image generation models need some porn in training to at least know what porn is so that they know what porn is not.

It’s part of a process called regularization, or preventing any particular computational model from over-fitting.

Payment processors are monopolies for online and electronic payments because there is no global infrastructure (outside Chinese offerings) for electronic payments that don’t rely on Visa and Mastercard.

Something can be Libre without it’s initial distribution being free (as in beer).

That’s how many distributions used to do it in the days when CDs and floppies etc weren’t exactly free.

I was definitely in the same camp of thinking (I mean Hindenburg etc, duh). But there’s been a bunch of studies where, because hydrogen basically immediately dissappates up and away, unless you’re in an extremely cramped area it’s much safer in collisions and unexpected containment breaches.

Even then, it actually poses less of a threat to life because it doesn’t create smoke or burn for awhile like gasoline does.

Hydrogen is more dangerous than gasoline if it leaks

I’d love to see a source on that.

This Report by the US department of energy says otherwise.

You didn’t say “most” on your original post. You might want to edit it if that’s what you meant.

? You can get Hydrogen through simple water electrolysis. In fact you can do it at home. That’s like how 4% of all hydrogen is manufactured.

Is this just hosted nextcloud with collabora office pre installed?

For those that think the response is overblown, from the thread:

These images are intended to be a drop-in replacement for Steam Deck OS for handheld console-like gaming PCs like the Steam Deck (Lenovo Legion Go, ASUS ROG Ally, MSI Claw, and other hardware in the same space).

These are also to be used to create gaming theater PCs, for streamlined use on a living room television.

The issue with “just using Flatpak or a container” is that the gamescope compositor simply does not work in those situations, when paired with Steam’s Gaming Mode, as it has the same concerns as a desktop environment. There would simply be no way to serve Gaming Mode as an environment.

As such, moving to this would essentially force Bazzite, as a project, to abandon its primary reason for existing - alienating 2/3s of their userbase. The remaining 1/3s would be served a lesser experience for a variety of more paper cut reasons, and VR is already a complex topic which would get even worse.

It’s a big deal because disallowing the native steam build would make it nearly impossible to run bazzite in a SteamOS-like experience (which accounts for 2/3s of bazzite’s users)

only problem could be other packages or the kernel becoming incompatible

Yea dependency management without updates is like 80% of the work that goes into package maintenance

Shepherd my love!

I’ve used SystemD for years and the pure joy writing system initialization units in Scheme gives me can’t be overstated.

Seriously, a lot of times I feel like I stick with Guix’s many problems just for shepherd.

I have also been done in many times by git-filter-repo. My condolences to the chef.

Outdated image, everything goes through palantir now

There’s a lot of assumptions about the reliability of the LLMs to get better over time laced into that…

But so far they have gotten steadily better, so I suppose there’s enough fuel for optimists to extrapolate that out into a positive outlook.

I’m very pessimistic about these technologies and I feel like we’re at the top of the sigma curve for “improvements,” so I don’t see LLM tools getting substantially better than this at analyzing code.

If that’s the case I don’t feel like having hundreds and hundreds of false security reports creates the mental arena that allows for researchers to actually spot the non-false report among all the slop.
