I hope my next PC can be a risc-v one, ideally, open source OS, running on open source firmware, with a open source instruction set.
I want to see everything open source band together, just so that I can be forced to use slack for work.
Do you imagine slack will feel ashamed running on top of this many open source code?
I think clear signage and message on the bill indicating “tipping is optional, service charges is included in the menu price” should suffice.
Making tipping illegal goes too far, but I am okay with implementing it for couple decades, in order to correct a bad habit.

I don’t think he isn’t properly treated, at least according to wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Li_Wenliang#Illness_and_death
There is a bench in New York central park dedicated to him: https://www.westsiderag.com/2023/02/07/central-park-bench-and-gathering-honor-covid-19-whistleblower . If you are near the central park, you can stop by to pay tribute to him.
Plus there isn’t many jurisdictions with stronger privacy law than the swiss. It is unlike they made a bad choice for choosing a headquarters.
I guess they can operate on the public sea or the arctic, but I imagine the commute will be terrible.
If the recipient doesn’t have the public key, they can’t read the content.
Sir, if your recipients don’t have a public key, you cannot even encrypt the message… That is how asymmetric-key crypto works.
This is why you buy laptop from companies that officially support linux.
Hum, interesting, do you have a source for that?
Sorry I think they specify that it is “vegan blue cheese”, is that okay in the EU?
I use a laptop to run home console, and its display can turn off just fine.
I was intentionally vague in my response, since I don’t want to confuse the reader. Specifically, the improvement I was referring to is when you run two monitor with different refresh rate or different scaling factor.
Yes, on wayland you will need to run a particular program as root to be able to read all keyboard input. See xremap or mouseless (unmaintained).
Since you already give the program plenty of trust to let it read all your inputs, I think running it as root is not outrages.
That being said, in an ideal scenario, we would be able to set fine-grained permissions like, allow to read keyboard input but deny communication with other app, networks, and storage etc. But I don’t know any OS that can do this.
A more straightforward way to remap key is to get a keyboard with QMK firmware, that doesn’t cover all the use case of ahk, xremap, or mouseless, but that don’t require you to trust another program to run as root.
I think you are referring to the DOP system? It certifies that a food with a certain name actually respects the history, quality, and tradition behind that name.
But you can always make up new names or use generic names. For example “blue cheese” is not protected under DOP, however Gorgonzola is. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorgonzola
I have found their website https://climax.bio/, and they only advertize this product as blue cheese, not Gorgonzola.
However, unlike you have suggested, the DOP system is proposed and managed by the EU, not Italy. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_designation_of_origin and a more complete list of types of protected names: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographical_indications_and_traditional_specialities_in_the_European_Union
Finally, the article states the rejection is because the lack of safety certificate, not related to geographical or traditional protection.
After initially being named a finalist, Climax Blue cheese was later disqualified by the Good Food Foundation, reportedly due to issues around one of the ingredients (kokum butter) not having GRAS certification. But Climax CEO Oliver Zahn accused the foundation of caving to pressure from the dairy cheese industry and changing the rules after the fact to disqualify his product.
“GRAS” stands for “generally regarded as safe” and is issued by the FDA https://www.fda.gov/food/food-ingredients-packaging/generally-recognized-safe-gras
It is the same on Windows, people can put a ahk script in your autostart, logs your password and send it to anyone on the internet, all without even invoking UAC.
So yeah, wayland is kind of important…
Basically, you should try it, if it works, keep using it; if it doesn’t, switch to xorg to see if that fixes your problem.
Wayland is newer, have better support for multi-monitor, and application cannot see what you are typing in other app (so they cannot log your key and send your password to someone else).
Must be nice, in China we only have the poorly formatted, lack-of-citation garbage that is Baidu Baike https://baike.baidu.com/ .
The “sorting algorithm” article: https://baike.baidu.com/item/排序算法/5399605 only have 3 citations: none of which are the original papers and none of which have any links. I tried searching these “citations” and found absolutely nothing…
Similarly, the article for “Amsterdam” contains almost no citation beyond the first paragraph https://baike.baidu.com/item/阿姆斯特丹/814
Just imagine how bad it would be for more obscure concepts.
Okay, I mentioned desktop because you mentioned “personal computer industry” which I assumed means desktop/laptops.
I think there are indeed more private (some can even be more secure) alternative to iOS, like calyx and/or graphene.
But like you said, they do require a reasonable amount of computing literacy to install: first they need to know these projects exists, then they will need to connect their phone to their computer and click a single button.
Thus, I think there is indeed no private and “popular” alternative to iOS, that a completely tech illiterate person can easily obtain.
I think it is useful to use fdroid in conjunction with private OS like graphene, divest and calyx all with excellent android compatibilities. Unfortunately, grapheneos, IMO the best of the three, is only avaliable on a small set of devices (so is ios).
But I do agree with your point, if you use the stock android, even with privacy hardening, it is probably still not so private. But I don’t know if a hardened stock android is “worse” than an average user’s iPhone.
I got a feeling that many consumers do use desktop linux, given the recently revealed 4% desktop market share across the world. macOS has 15% market share (around 3 times desktop linux), and Windows at the dominant 72% (around 3 times macOS). See https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/desktop/worldwide
I believe macOS probably is more private than Windows, but it is definitely not as private as the rest of the industry.
I thought the name is pretty fun.
Prism refract boring white light into its colorful component. This process is kind of like spliting a single x86 instruction into several arm instructions. In the meantime also conveys the message that arm is “cooler”, because colored light out of a prism is prettier than the input white light.
