… and execution speed is faster. And they’re both open source. I mean, good thing we have choices, right?

Sure, once you have root on the host system you can pretty much do whatever you want … adding entries to udev isn’t anything revolutionary.

From the article:

Patronscan previously had a system flag for “substance abuse,” but this flag was removed in 2019, according to Mlikotin. Its privacy policy notes a California law that limits its flags to “fraud, abuse, and material representation.”

Silo AI is committed to “open source” AI models, which are available for free and can be customised by anyone. This distinguishes it from the likes of OpenAI and Google, which favour their own proprietary or “closed” models.

It’s funny that a company called Silo AI makes open LLM models while one called OpenAI makes closed ones…

You’re welcome! And yes, I can confirm it works in light mode as well :)

If you want people to take you seriously about being open source, you need to have a git repo, like github, gitlab, etc. you can even self host one. Heck, you can even use a different (non git) DVCS, but not just a link to a cloud drive…

I was reading the site on Android, and it looked dark, but after seeing this comment, I tried disabling Android system wide dark mode, and sure enough it became white like in the screenshot! For the record, I tried with both Firefox and a Chromium-based browser.

McAfee is not Russan, just like Instagram is not Chinese (I thought it was clear enough).

Yes it’s a clear reference to TikTok, which I don’t like for many many reasons, but none of those reasons is why it was banned, it’s because it’s Chinese.

But is not Russian, just like Instagram is not Chinese.

The reference to Minority Report is right in the subtitle:

The social media app might get hit with a federal lawsuit before its ban officially begins as the FTC has issued a warning for possible future crimes.

and apparently the FTC statement includes these words:

violating or are about to violate the law.

I mean, I also don’t really like TikTok and have a hard time picturing an adult using it as well, but that doesn’t mean it should be held accountable for “future crimes”. At least, that’s what the article is claiming…

That’s possible, I’m using Firefox, is that something firefox would do?

The site does use https for me… it instantly redirects from http to https

Ok, so, no official support for Windows 10, but can you still install and run Windows 10 and renouce whatever “support” or will it just not work?

I agree with the sentiment, but I think the article meant “service” in a more general way. For example, developing software for sale, to be used offline and/or on device rather than cloud, can also be considered a service.

When I saw “Copilot Recall” I initially thought they recalled Copilot … one can dream

The guide is suggesting to install microG, an open source reimplementation of Google services that even many “degooglers” use.

The real numbers we need to see are watts per volume, or watts per mass

You have to chase it down, following the link to electrek.co, but then it says: “the prototype cells house an energy density of 720 Wh/kg”

(of course, I’m just stating what is claimed, no idea how true)

My point is, since its meaning depends on the context, I don’t see the issue for it to mean, in the context of containers, “outside of a container”. Just like in the case of VMs, or OS vs No OS, it means there’s one fewer layer between the app and the hardware, whether that’s a VM, Container runtime, or the OS.

I’m pretty sure everybody, including you, understood its meaning in this context, it didn’t really cause any misunderstanding.

That’s only the meaning you’re used to, and that’s my point. It depends on the context. I can assure you that, in the context of microcontrollers, for example, “bare metal” means running without an OS.

Well, since we want to be technical … Docker is not bare metal. Linux apps are not bare metal. Arduino is bare metal.
