That’s because Ubuntu is the standard devops platform for intellectually challenged software engineers who don’t like choosing a quality development platform because they fear lack of documentation since Ubuntu was the distro standard for 15+ years.
Hence why its also highly used as a podman/docker image base.
And why actual linux users tend to switch or pick a superior distro.
Sorta related but recently I had a DDR4 3600 16Gb stick die on me and G.Skill honored their lifetime warranty with a 2 week turnaround time which was awesome because I originally bought the kit for $60 and it was now $230.
Pretty much a customer for life now lol.
not American ones, generally.
Well then screw you AT&T lmao
They ran an ad campaign and everything which would have been fine if the current administration didn’t spend their time pissing on existing ATC controllers and withholding their paychecks with government shutdowns.
The funny thing is I don’t think China actually expected the US military to nope themselves out potentially faster than their ability to surpass their reliance on Taiwan. I wouldn’t be surprised if they use it to strongarm a deal into essentially purchasing Taiwan if no one is left to back them.
They claim its for spam prevention which is why most ISPs actually also block outgoing SMTP port 25.
The dumb thing is, all it really does is push spammers onto using botted/stolen accounts which work way more effectively, and everyone else is forced to set up their email with Google or Microsoft.
If your domain isn’t big enough to be recognized, all that SPF and DMARC won’t mean crap to them.
I’m kind of surprised no solid point defence platform has emerged from this heavy drone warefare.
Obviously its not as easy as just slapping a radar onto a turret 50 cal, but you’d think we’d at least have something for drones since they move way slower than air dropped bombs and tank munitions.
I’m messing with making a kernel softmac driver that can handle Nintendo specific 802.11 frames so that MelonDS can connect to a real DS or to another device using the native Nintendo wirelesss protocol.
Lot’s of interesting reading and packet capture fun with Wireshark has given me an idea of where to start, but the tricky part is that the DS needs less than 20us of round trip latency for it to work, which is insanely low. Otherwise the connection is considered interrupted and gets dropped.
afaik, the only part that “verifies” the latency are ACK frames which the DS expects a return for every frame transmitted, so it should in theory be possible to just make a small driver that generates ACK frames at kernel priority, and forwards the rest of the frame to MelonDS for actual game handling.
I’m hoping it turns out that easy but the MelonDS forums have a long ass thread about how much of a PITA the DS wireless multiplayer timing synchronization requirements are.
I remember when youtube basically only had one format and I’m pretty sure it was 240p lol.
SXM to PCIe adapters already exist hehe
Not to mention my dumbass would chuck money at a whole server just to throw it in my home lab.
Fill in the blank with any EU country after shaking hands with France lol
Try Micro which is apparently based off of MicroEmacs lol
Good to see a big social media company push back against the insanity for once.
You poor soul
Me watching people take MCU seriously after endgame 7 years ago in which it became painfully obvious Disney ran out of ideas just like they did with every other franchise they own.
They diverted some AA flight a couple of months ago because some guy’s phone alarm went off in his checked bag lmao.
I like how these only became a problem because Meta made them which meant a bunch of morons bought it.
Hidden and pinhole cameras have been a commercially available thing for decades, even on glasses.
Hell they even made one as a kids toy you could buy.
20 years of hoarding CVEs down the drain.
Now they’ll never be able to gg ez their way into any country and will have to actually use their bribery budget to get more implants lol.
My old windows install was so cooked thst I had successfully made an illegal CON file (cygwin?) on NTFS, which Windows would refuse to delete because it should be impossible to make such a file.
After a completely fresh install, the settings app refused to launch after a day and of course sfc/dism did jack all.
Said “screw it” and dual booted Fedora because my previous experience with Ubuntu sucked snd I saw that video of Linus saying he never used Debian or Ubuntu because it didn’t used to be user friendly to install. Searched up his preferred distro and it was Fedora.
Kept Windows around for a couple of months for one game until one day windows overwrote grub after an update.
Nuked it again and installed only Fedora. Found out the game now had solid support in proton so I literally did not miss anything from Windows.
Deepseek is such a wale
