I’d forgotten all about Google+ until you made this observation

About how far does this leave us from a usable quantum processor? How far from all current cryptographic algorithms being junk?

That may well be the thing I’m looking for, thanks for the pointer!

You don’t understand because I didn’t state why 😅 I have enough time and energy to set up and manage containerised applications. 20 years ago I might have had the drive to set up a local dev version, manage the dependencies and set up local init scripts, but not anymore.

KDE Connect is a great idea, thanks!

Take your pick from the Linux family tree

Let’s not be too hasty to call it garbage when it could in fact turn out to be rancid dog shit.

But what news of the console legs race?

Key info, this relates to discrete cards only, not integrated graphics:

Since Linux lacks the infrastructure for properly and reliably indicating if a full-screen 3D game is running versus another application, this change will just use the full-screen 3D power profile at boot time by default. It’s better in the name of performance but with more aggressive ramping of the core/memory clock frequencies it can come with an increase to power use by default.

This was also my first Linux distro after having used Sun’s Solaris while at uni. I think I tried out Slack and Suse at around the same time, but stuck with RedHat and related distros for about 6 years.

How much do you want to bet that they don’t even have a contingency plan to evacuate and secure their inmate population?

How about, ‘no’?

I am not renting my corporeal existence from a megacorporation. There is no way this is ever affordable to the masses without some pretty huge caveats

There are conspiracies after all, but they’re just the usual ‘capitalist assholes screw the rest of us over’ kind rather than the ‘three-assed aliens kidnapped me and forced me to watch naked while they fed pineapple on a pizza to my dog’ kind.
