The company I work for had a pilot project for a while but recently they opened up for all users to order Github Copilot. Of course it is Github Copilot since everything else at the company is from Microsoft.

Ecosia and Qwant will cooperate and build their own search index.

And there is never time to maintain the code, because each project only want to add more feature/s which makes the spaghetti code even worse.

In my group we had a golden opportunity to fix all old mistakes but no, we (decided by PO and group manager) needed to spend all time on proof of concepts that will go to production at earliest in 5 years. Now that opportunity is gone and we are crunching in order to meet the deadlines instead. Still with bad code quality of course.

Or Librewolf, which is a fork from Firefox and removes the telemetry that Firefox collects.

Do you only update once per week? Doesn’t sound very Arch.

That makes a lot more sense. When I was reading PCD I was thinking about a private device, even if they don’t have much space and even less time I was thinking that they might bring a few small private things. Like a photo of their family, maybe a book etc.

Why is NASA remotely connecting to the tablet if it is a personal device?

The latest community phone will be manufactured in Finland.

Oh, I meant what the advantage would be of tracking TPMS sensors instead of using a camera to read the license plate. I can see the advantage of tracking people.

It seems easier to set up a camera and scan the license plate for identification instead of using radios for logging TPMS sensors.

Would it be an advantage to identify a car by logging the TPMS sensors?

Asus and dell are already launching clients to save us.

I tried Le Chat with the car wash question.

That’s a fun question! Since the car wash is only 50 meters away, walking is definitely the more practical choice. Driving such a short distance would take more time to start the car, drive, and park than it would to simply walk over. Plus, you’ll save a bit of fuel and avoid any unnecessary wear on your car. If you’re already outside and the weather is nice, it’s a great opportunity for a quick stretch!

However, I also asked it with a slightly different phrasing and then the result was different. At least it replies that it might make sense to drive there.

I need to wash my car. The car wash is 50 meters away from my house, should I drive or walk there?

That’s a fun question! Since the car wash is only 50 meters away, walking would be the most practical choice—it’s just a short stroll, and you’d avoid the hassle of starting your car for such a tiny distance. Plus, you’d save a bit of fuel and get a little fresh air! But if you’re planning to wash the car yourself and need to bring supplies, driving might make sense. Are you using an automatic car wash, or are you doing it by hand?

My company laptop had both Edge and Chrome installed the first time I started it. Edge is the default and the one with an icon on the taskbar. I’m convinced that most people, at least outside engineering, will use Edge as their main browser.

Luckily for me I have the “Local admin” access so the first thing I do is to download Firefox and set it up as my default browser. On the time reporting site I get warnings that my browser is not Chrome, but it still works without any problems.

Debian - A little boring and outdated, but friendly and reliable. Everyone likes him.

Like this?

They have learned to say the right things for the voters, but they have not understood what it means and are continuing like before because of that.

Mandatory reference to Protondb, which lists how well every game performs on Linux. 84 % of the top 100 games on Steam are rated as gold or platinum.

Meta Is Recruiting Former Pentagon Officials As It Ramps Up Military Ambitions

Reading that headline is crazy, why would Meta have any military ambitions. And then in the first sentence of the text they mention AI. I guess they need to use AI for any possible application to show that they get value from their large investments.

Didn’t people smuggled butter from Sweden to Norway? Imaging having that on your criminal record.

Speaking of toilet paper, if they burn it can can use the heat to boil water and generate electricity. Since they use everything they can get their hands on to generate electricity it might soon be a new tp crisis.

But the article defines the longest possible train journey as needing to be the shortest possible route between the start and end points. So detours don’t count as part of a journey.

That makes sense, otherwise you could do all types of crazy detours to get a longer journey.
