To be honest, I think it was buggy on windows as well.

I’m also interested in this. In my old xps 13 the s0 was very buggy. Would be a shame if you can’t switch to s3 at all. I thought it was a limitation of the x86 architecture actually?

I love valetudo!

But I also think there should be more open source robotics, and a robot vacuum feels the right topic as a starting point.

I think I also saw someone that wanted to make a robot grass cutter.

Without realizing why it was rejected. I don’t get it, why care so much about 3 lines of code where one np command was replaced by another…

Oh this is so cool! Did you make it yourself? Do they ever climb on the fence?

Mostly agree, but;

The reality is that if China stops supplying the world with stuff, we’re fucked

The entire world relies on China’s cheap and available “stuff”, and it encompasses everything

I think is more their engineering expertise than cheap manufacturing. Cheap manufacturing can be easily moved to other countries as is already happening in India and Vietnam among others. However China has big expertise in high tech/large scale manufacturing in many areas like electronics, batteries, EV’s,… that doesn’t move easily.

However for those engineering domains China also strongly relies on other countries. In our world you can’t do everything alone.

The have enormous military power

They haven’t fought a war in 4 decades though.

lol @ “Out of context cats”, as if context would explain the behavior.

Officially wouldn’t this be the normal usage of we? In royal we it would mean “I” right?

I had to put two chairs at my desk, my chair was whichever the cat wasn’t on.

We started as well with a leash when ours was a kitten, now (at 4 years) he’s completely used to it. He even sits to let it put on 😊

I don’t think German citizenship is why Americans would want to move to Germany.

I think it’s worrisome because if hobbyist can do this, imagine what professionals with more time and money can do

IMO the way to prevent such a scenario from happening is not by blocking Meta, but by inviting equally large competitors to join the fediverse. The described tactic can only work if you have close to a monopoly.

They’re right though. Top of the line software for certain domains (CAD, photoshop) just doesn’t exist for Linux. As much as I would want it to be.

It doesn’t read as if the author is generalizing all Europeans, it reads more as if he’s criticizing European policy. For what it’s worth in his book he’s very critical of Brexit as well.

Reality: most tech workers view it as fairly rated or slightly overrated according to the real data: https://www.techspot.com/images2/news/bigimage/2023/11/2023-11-20-image-3.png

The paper I showed earlier disagrees

I think the use case is not people doing potato study but people that want to lose weight and need to know the amount of calories in the piece of cake that’s offered at the office cafeteria.

It needn’t be exact. A ballpark calorie/sugar that’s 90% accurate would be sufficient. There’s some research that suggests that’s possible: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2011.01082.pdf

Tbh, the article doesn’t really talk about the headline. Just some history and talk about Elon musk and Twitter. Not a convincing argument about social media in general.
