That list doesn't sound half bad tbh

Containers, the concept that Docker implements, lets app developers give a self-contained environment for distribution. For devs that means consistency in deployments across environments, which in turn means sysadmins can deploy each of these apps as fully isolated units.

With that, you get really clean installs/updates/uninstalls, and your deployments get done with a well-defined, declarative definition file which can also handle multi service dependencies (a la Docker Compose/K8s)

As an Indian myself this makes me happy :D

I hate that I recognise that video playing on the TV, damn you Gianni

I remember facing this once on a site, so i peeked at the source. Turns out they have an event handler for the pinch gesture, preventing the browser from doing its usual zoom

Oh that just made it click in my head why they would do it as sign, exponent, mantissa and not sign, mantissa, exponent. I mean yes I've been taught it's for sorting purposes, but this really helped it fit better. Thanks!

Trivago? Hotelikely.

To add on to this explanation, you generally use source ~/.bashrc to reload your shell whenever you want to make changes to your user config. Tab completion weakens the barrier to destruction significantly (esp. in my case)

AFAIK: Development at AMD funded the dev to make it support AMD GPUs (instead of the then-supported Intel GPUs), Dev keeps a clause saying any and all work will remain open even if contract is cancelled, work is then halted by AMD and dev releases his updates on his repo, Legal then says later that the clause was not legally binding and can't be enforced or such, making dev rollback to earlier Intel version

I'm genuinely having a chuckle at how shocked people are at my submission, made my day xD

So how many have you murdered so far?

I've rarely used CDs/DVDs but AFAIK it's practically just a copy. Your PC can read the CD's data, so it just saves that into a file

'tis how LLM chatbots work. LLMs by design are autocomplete on steroids, so they can predict what the next word should be in a sequence. If you give it something like:

Here is a conversation between the user and a chatbot.

User:

Chatbot:

Then it'll fill in a sentence to best fit that prompt, much like a creative writing exercise

Had 300 on my laptop a while ago, finished up a project which let me drop it down to 160.

On my desktop I have 1,300 or so. Both of them on a single Firefox window with Sidebery

Because systemd (the project) extends more than just systemd (the init system). It also includes things like:

  • systemd-journald (system logging)
  • systemd-timesyncd (Network Time Sync)
  • NetworkManager systemd-networkd (network interface/connection management)
  • systemd-homed (Home directory management)
  • systemd-resolved (DNS Resolver)

and so many more

Now, in my personal opinion, I do find it good in that these being under one umbrella project led to fairly good integration between these aspects of "system management" as a whole. But I do also concede that this may feel like too many responsibilities handled by one project

Doesn't that already exist as the Factory Reset Protection (FRP) partition?

std::attack_helicopter::AttackHelicopter::new() cool!

For the record, you have sent me back on a nostalgia trip for 2016 memes and music edits

Thank you

I'm gonna read the u as an oo and oo can't stop me

They stand for Floating Point 16-bit, 8-bit and 4 bit respectively. Normal floating point numbers are generally 32 or 64 bits in size, so if you're willing to sacrifice some range, you can save a lot of space used by the model. Oh, and it's about the model rather than the GPU

I feel that might be an issue from 4G onwards, considering VoLTE and VoNR are intended to avoid the use of a separate voice network to their existing data network

Just a hunch from my side, Entropy and Survival of the Fittest strike me as the underpinning principles behind life in general. Since we know empirically that the universe prefers increasing entropy, I like to treat it as a "push" towards increasing the number of possible states (like a search space of sorts). Survival of the Fittest then acts as another "push" towards choosing the right configurations to thrive in any given environment.

With that description, I'd consider such forward planning to be inherently chaotic. Everything on earth (and the universe in general, though sparser) will end up affecting each other via common systems to some extent, so I say just let it loose and observe what happens.

There's !oobabooga@lemmy.world for Oobabooga's text gen UI, but it's not too active

Unreal Engine is a major example, you get access to a private repo containing the engine's source code but you're bound by an agreement regarding what you can do with it IIRC. Of course anyone is allowed to apply for access though

He did eventually take one later on, which I can imagine must've been a bit of a painful decision ;-;

Would a LibreOffice environment suffice?

It's odd that I can narrow this picture to Bangalore

Well the taller chairs would be a problem with the higher center of gravity I imagine

Hi-fi Rush is really good if you're into rhythm action, Call of Juarez is one I'm trying now and it feels nice to play

Generally yes. For many distros, the kernel signing key is with the distro maintainers and so the package comes with pre-signed kernel images. For distros like Arch and Gentoo, it's the user's responsibility to maintain the signing key and sign each updated kernel

From a maintainability standpoint, absolutely. Computers have gotten fast enough to let programmers optimize for developer time instead
