It’s really the keyboard activists. You would be surprised.
Sparking@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.ml•Silicon Valley’s Very Online Ideologues are in Model CollapseEnglish291·8 months agoYou can label it as a trendy new tech term, but it is the age old yes-manism that I have watched eat up tech executives and CEOs that I have worked with.
Sparking@lemm.eeto Linux@lemmy.ml•Linux Desktop reaches New All time high. 4.45%(+0.4) 📈🐧English2·9 months agoGame mode doesn’t have a browser. I would be interested to find out of the steamdeck sales almost directly correlate to this increase. Not that I am complaining, it’s a great way to use a linux desktop experience. I didn’t really read how these numbers were measured.
The other explanation I could think of is that linux desktop is being adopted widely in India. I don’t think that government’s adopting linux desktop accounts for a significant portion of the machines.

Sparking@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.ml•OpenAI researchers warned board of AI breakthrough ahead of CEO ouster, sources sayEnglish1·1 year agoNot really. The imementation of land is most the same, they just run continously on a per word (token) basis.
Yeah, it definitely still has a long way to go. I remember back in 2012 it felt impossible to even do basic 3d modeling, but that was more than 10 years ago.
FreeCAD is a lot more okay than people give it credit for. Perhaps I just remember back to the early days when it was basically unusable.
Pretty sure thats Pripyat.
No one realizes what this is a picture of huh?

I only read books that I have a physical copy of, or books that are on project Gutenberg. But really, we should seek to make all books free. An unencrypted epub is like 1 MB for like 300 pages usually.
I do wish that there was an open source e-reader that ran Linux. You can already read these things on your phone or on your computer. But I like the dedicated devices for reading.
Someone made an open source one that runs on a microprocessor, and it is a super cool project. But you really need a kernel to run arbitrary code, and gain access to open source e-reader software that gets you compatibility with publishing formats, layouts and fonts.
Getting Linux kernels onto more open source devices is probably a good goal - its still rather hard for a hobbyist to design a devicw that supports Linux.
Remarkable looks cool, but I was talking about a dedicated e-reader. They probably won’t bother because their differentiator is the writing.
There needs to be one that is kindle adjacent, ru s linux, and comes with a ton of selections from project gutenberg, selling a little bit above cost. Thats the only way I could see this working.
Just an open source e-ink device with the build quality of a Kindle. Nothing fancy.
I know, this is a bummer for me too.
