People, shall we read the full article first?

Meanwhile, this is not the case with the Ryzen 9000 series desktop parts as the spec sheet of that says:

OS Support

Windows 11 - 64-Bit Edition , Windows 10 - 64-Bit Edition , RHEL x86 64-Bit , Ubuntu x86 64-Bit

So the new Ryzen AI chips that most people don’t care about won’t support Win 10, but Ryzen 9000 (the real deal desktop chips) will.

To be frank, the article title is misleading at best.

Same for the teenager part.

The Podcast (Dialogues instead of Monologues) is content for the older audience, though: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLet00UQnlQoUKqSB5-oFmrwpnnVc4C4A8

L. O. L.

Seriously though, reasonable discussion of its usefulness aside, how can’t people see that outrageous statements like that without any scientific or practical backing, clearly made to inspire devotion and/or fear, keeping the hype and the money and resources drain on, are the telltale of a tech hype?

We are discontinuing Workplace from Meta so we can focus on building AI and metaverse technologies that we believe will fundamentally reshape the way we work,

Lol, can’t make this shit up!

It this actually true? For real?!

Can’t wait to go back from my parental leave and not be the last one to hear about important announcements because they were posted on FB. F that.

KeepassXC replied on that thread that it wasn’t just the privacy problematic networking that was removed:

that bug report is bunk. He removed ALL features, not just networking. That includes yubikey support, auto-type and browser integration.

Every 4-5 seconds? Yeah, logging.

You can either move the system dataset to your boot drive/pool or syslog to /var/log:

I’ve seem many users recommend a reboot after changing those settings.

Boy, are the example story and picture bad.

Out of curiosity, which is the launcher you chose?

I froze the stock launcher at the last version without Ads. It works, but I guess some entries like “continue watching” could be bugging out now because it is out of date/never patched.

What’s the app? I might check it out.

I keep using Eternity and even contributed some patches to it because it is Open Source and Android native, which might sound like a low bar, but really:

Open Source

• It’s free
• I’m not the product. Really, even if some closed source alternatives have relatively cheap Ad and tracking free experiences, you’ll always be seen as the source of monetization. And I’m too weary of having paid for a good app only to see it try to twist my arm and squeeze more money or sell out to a big corp.
• I can fix what’s broken. If I find an issue with an otherwise unimportant part of the app, but that matters to me, I don’t need to wait and pray it doesn’t get forgotten. I can fix it myself and end up helping the devs and whole user base in the process.

Android native

• It shows. I use a 5 year old phone that still kicks ass. But the otherwise good cross platform alternatives out there make the user experience more jittery than is excusable. Even PWAs (Web Apps) are snappier than those!
• It is not a Flutter ListView powered timeline. Trust me, I’m lazy, and if cross platform frameworks were up to the task, I’d be among the first to endorse them. But they aren’t. Have you noticed that the timeline tends to “jump around” if you’re scrolling around on other apps? Yeah, the Android RecyclerView that Eternity uses doesn’t have that (apparently unfixable) problem.

Thanks Bazsalanszky!

The maintainer has been very welcoming of my patches.

The “downsides” I could enumerate are that the production app doesn’t get released as often as I would like (how entitled!) and, tbh, the code base is a bit messy, having inherited much code debt from the initial Reddit fork.

Trying to make real and good use of AI generative models are cracks in the magic.

On handling downloaded songs and offline playback, my personal (but informed) opinion is that there is:

• some licensing reasons for it to be more complicated than strictly necessary
• lack of interest of supporting an app feature that doesn’t drive numbers immediately up (sure, I agree that a better offline experience would improve the product and help user retention, but it isn’t easy/quick to measure its impact), and
• lack of ownership with many teams having to support a functionality (keep the app working offline) within all the various app features they own.

So, just as a dog with multiple owners, it goes neglected and starves.

I’d say that they’re “cooking the books” as in: making it look like they’re in better shape than they are by cutting costs, but causing irreparable damage to themselves that will manifest in the long run.

I’ve survived 3 layoffs at Spotify last year alone. Once I started working there It didn’t take long to be proud and feel happy about it. Now, although people still find it cool when I tell them and I still do the same job (no workload increase), I know it is just like any other greedy corpo and I feel compelled to care less and less.
