Probably but is it too much to expect something like reading the article before commenting? We all know that many articles/blog posts titles on the internet are clickbait.

Have you ever heard of Oulu, Finland?

Bikes can totally belong on the same streets as cars if said cars can't go fast thanks to traffic calming infrastructure.

I see them at a little less than 400€ in the second hand market. So expensive for their age but not hard to replace if you were willing to pay 600-700 for it in 2020.

<8GB gpus and below can be found at decent price. While the price are higher than they used to be a year ago for older / lower end levels it is not crazier than the price during the covid/crypto miner period for example which is probably when you built that pc.

it is funny how all this is only driven by ram. From a 5070ti with 16GB of ram at less than 1500€ to a 5090ti with 32GB of ram at 12500€ you get nearly a factor of 10x with the rtx pro at 24GB of ram sitting below 4000€.

They have a release policy that is not yet official according to them but I believe they already try to apply but it doesn't yet matches what they have been doing: https://wiki.netbsd.org/releasing/

quoting:

"Timeline

The release engineering team will try to meet the following timeline

    One new major branch and release per year
    One point release for the newest stable branch every other month
    One point release for the old stable branch every quarter

"

history: https://netbsd.org/releases/formal.html#history

They took 4 months instead of 2 for the next one point release since 11.0 and have released one 10.2 since last update of the release document.

Hence the work in progress statement. I am personally fine with that. They could probably do with more workforce as many projects.

what is wrong with curl and httpie (I mean the open source cli one, no idea what the desktop one does)?

> Even if you saturate a market, new people are born every day, at a greater rate than they die, so one would assume you grow or fade, unless customers just like… stop buying things in a category for some reason

My own observation is that old people tend to spend less shit on silly things, compulsive purchases and focus on the essential. With an ageing global population I don't think one can expect infinite growth unless the category of services is focused on an older population.

Also society change and some stuff that is needed now won't be needed tomorrow. I don't think there is anything wrong with a shrinking market as long as it is gradual and slow enough that it lets people working for affected companies involved to retire and/or move.

Shouldn't that be the purpose of insurances?

Also I am paying taxes for that and am glad of paying it for whoever has the need to instead of them or me having to setup a gofundme campaign.

I'd say voting for the right candidates is better than a system where a few of apparently lucky people can achieve that while in fact they are completely losing their mind in the process and leaving in constant stress (if my observation of founders and so called successful tech bros is correct)

> Linux day 1: whole day looking up which distro is usable. > > Day 2: install Linux distro, total process is like 4 hours because at every step you double check that you won't lose your Windows data because it's your first time installing Linux. Realize that your distro doesn't support modern displays and never will. Call it a day because you're mentally exhausted.

Hmmm day 2 should be: making a backup of my windows data, that way I can do the f... I want during installation.

> Day 3: install a distro that does support modern displays.

Apart from LTS/enterprise versions, all distros are running the same kernel generations. They all have the same hardware support really.

The rest of your text soup doesn't mean anything. Like this: "random shit like Wine installation causing system update to fail.", this really sounds like hallucinations and inventions.

The part about $DEVICE and drivers is like looking at a kid trying to connect a Nintendo SNES controller to a PS5 and complaining it doesn't work to well.

I am not sure you know what you are talking about. What is the "alt-tab service" you are speaking about. There is no systemd service with that name in any linux distro I have used.

Also if you are able to know that the new video card driver hasn't been installed, you also know that you can solve this by doing it yourself. In that case why wouldn't you do it?

Ultimately if all those things are too hard for you there are a number of immutable "image" based distros where packages/drivers aren't managed individually during updates and where you can always boot to the previous version. Maybe that is what you need.

There goes my hope for niche new production of pack films! :( (not really serious obviously)

You have to take into account that there aren't (or very few usb) LTO-5 enclosures. While you can potentially find an LTO-5 drive >$200 these days, you also need an equipment with SAS or 8GB FC interface to be able to use it.

> But yes I agree it seems strange that most posts/articles/etc. are not prominently giving out mitigation strategies.

Probably because most linux workloads these days run on containers where the orchestrator dynamically create some firewall rules and where these vuln could be used to jump from on compromised container to another or the host. In these case it is rather complicated to instruct all your users on how to implement these mitigations depending on the orchestrator, firewall used, etc. Much easier to patch.

I would have taped a $5 casio watch clone on the dashboard were the clock is supposed to be shown.

Quoting the show hn introduction: "I thought it would be fun"

I think we can leave it at that no?

That is a bit cliché isn't it? According to INSEE in France 12% of the kids were in shared custody and that is the mean. At 10 y old it is around 15%. And around 24% of the fathers get full custody.

So while there is a bias towards mother custody of the kids (around 2/3), there is still 1/3 of the kids where it is not the case.

Also, not having full custody of kids doesn't mean the father is leaving completely from the kids life. More often than not the kids need to stay with one parent because job and cost of living forces them to be more regionally apart (only 37% of kids living in same town). That doesn't mean the father do not see the kids in the weekends/holidays nor contribute financially to study.

So the reality is way more nuanced than you make it out to be in a small comment.

Is this site referring to global or US trends? I don't see it mentionned anywhere.

All the Leslie I know are men for instance, so I have a feeling this balance might be purely regional but what do I know.

All other Linux distros have the same gpu drivers.

And you can have an ubuntu userland setup and any package necessary to run cuda in mere seconds on any linux distro thanks to toolbox and distrobox.

well, it is not called intellij idea for a start.

If you do a lookup at WIPO brands database you can find "intellij" and "intellij idea" owned by Jetbrains s.r.o. but not "idea" alone.

Based on this only a judge can decide if it is close enough to be an infringement and could misled customers. Given the readme days eplicitely says it is not the same IDE as Intellij IDEA I would say it would be hard to convince someone customers are misled.

That is not what the first article says.

It says Tesla registrations increase and I believe this may be a trend accross all EV brands with the influence of the Iran/US conflict on the price of gas.

Are ByD cars that interesting? Specs look good but I had a few rides in that sedan model most Ubers drive these days and it is conceptually flawed. They put batteries where you are supposed to put your feets as a rear passenger which mean that any regular adult sized person end up with their knees in the face as if they were seating on a kids chair. So uncomfortable.

With such a basic design error, I wonder how many frustrating flaws an actual owner has to put up with. I've driven chinese rental cars in Mexico (an MG SUV and a chevrolet small sized sedan) and both had electronic issues. For instance the rear window heating of the MG would startup on its own once every other time their was a significant bump on the road (which happens frequently in MX) and the actual touch sensitive non mechanical button buttons weren't very sensitive so it was a pain in the ass to turn it off. Both android systems were absolute crap with annoying bugs. Overall not a very pleasant experience.

> a fuzzy plastic display will not faithfully represent what your viewers/users will see on their devices

Looks to me like it would be the opposite unless a majority of your users are on a Mac. MacOS has a 30% market share in the USA and only around 15% globally.

> I bought the new 8 inch Alexa tablet [...] for putting on a video in bed while I fall asleep

That's...horrifying.

Have you tried closing your eyes?

This would only work for a few months until car thieves start having a habit of mounting different plates.

Obviously the perfect crime is harder to do in an orwellian society. But happiness and freedom too so nothing good is gained from that.

>For a ~2500-3200 USD phone (base model, international pricing), that's not happening.

Honestly I have no idea. To me spending 800usd for a phone is already completely crazy yet apparently smartphones in the 1000 to 1400 range are plenty already. What is the ceiling at which volume will go down drastically? I honestly don't know.

Same for transportation, I don't understand why people accept paying north of 35kusd on a vehicle and that is before the additional yearly expenses. Yet there are plenty of cars sold in the 50k and above. I bought mine second hand for 6.5kusd and even if it died tomorrow after 2 years of use it would still have been a better deal than leasing even the smallest and cheapest new cars on the market for 4 years. Yet I still see plenty of brand new cars in the street every day (and I am thanskful of that, otherwise the second hand market would disappear) so plenty of people are willing to buy really expensive stuff whenever much cheaper alternatives exist.

I have a friend who is not at all into luxury stuff but bought one because he never used a computer and was appealed by the screen size to make the administrative stuff he was struggling to do with a regular smartphone.

Having said that he is also known to make some bad purchasing decision and living in constant debt.

TBH the idea that one person could have so much power is bad imho, it only attracts sociopaths.

I like the swiss model more where one party never gets full power, even if it means societal changes take more time to happen[1], it seems less risky to me as there is never one power grab whose decision can influence the next election by stuff like redistricting, puting clearly leaning judges to federal court, etc.

[1] famous example is the women right to vote in the general election happened in 1971 which is quite shameful

Next time bring a bicycle.
