There are both open source and commercial apps that do PTT over internet. It turns phones into radio, it even has the capability to have central radio operation rooms for companies and such. It’s all automated.

Fuck Nintendo

We already know what happens with long term sunk cost fallacy. It is a scam.

Can’t wait for my new hard-drive to arrive so I can further expand my lossless music collection even more.

Go with pangolin. You can easily host the control layer either on a cheap vps or your own internet exposed server. Same features as tailscale although with a bit more complexity.

A plastic fannypack, so primitive!

Dying of hunger, so healthy.

You’re not gonna believe why child mortality was so high.

Also, the (often) improper diets of pregnant ladies, especially among the poorer classes of society, that meant a lack of essential vitamins and minerals, put mothers too at great risk. To compound the issue, matters got out of hand during the periods when the annual Nile floods did not materialize. With the mother dead, the newborn faced an uphill task in surviving the odds. Feeding a motherless child was one of the greatest difficulties that the ancient Egyptians encountered. The milk of livestock – cows and goats – was the only substitute to natural mother’s milk. How many could afford it? This is where the aunts or other close family members of the baby stepped in to carry out this function and keep the baby well-fed.

It was also the food.

Most likely also because of their food. Diabetes, gluten intolerance, food allergies, vitamin deficiency from eating way too much of the one thing that grew and didn’t die that harvest. Food related issues were all rampant, people just died of them.

Part of some people’s chagrin with internet memes culture is presenting outdated and harmful ideas as popular or current. Further spreading misinformation and hurtful beliefs.

How non-white are you?

Yeah, that is the kind of concern for the service developer or a very opinionated sys admin. For self-hosting, few people will reach the workload where such a decision has any material or measurable impact.

The idea of a linux box that is VR capable is a strong business proposition. VR on linux is not a thing yet, at least not seamlessly. It would be a major market shift to compete directly with Sony.

He’s a conman and very good at selling his reputation. (Artificially) deep voice, fancy words, and distracting audiences with a blackboard. It’s all it takes to project a strong and attractive image that gather audiences.

Your phone is trying to keep your battery alive. The lower the specs of the phone, then the more aggressive the OS is. I don’t know how it works in Graphene but this is why many UIs now have and advertise multiapp ux like floating windows, split screen, floating icon and desktop modes. I suggest to use your phone intended keep app alive tactic.

Or how we operationalize and interpret information from studies. You might think you’re measuring something according to a narrow definition and operationalization of the measurement. But that doesn’t guarantee that that’s what you are actually getting. It’s more an epistemological and philosophical issue. What is “believable human”? And how do you measure it? It’s a rabbit hole in and of itself.

I deep dived into AI research when the bubble first started with chatgpt 3.5. It turns out, most AI researchers are philosophers. Because thus far, there was very little tech wise elements to discuss. Neural networks and machine learning were very basic and a lot of proposals were theoretical. Generative AI as LLMs and image generators were philosophical proposals before real technological prototypes were built. A lot of it comes from epistemology analysis mixed in with neuroscience and devops. It’s a relatively new trend that the wallstreet techbros have inserted themselves and dominated the space.

It’s obvious how you haven’t even touched a Samsung phone in the past 10 years and are just repeating misinformation. Carrier phones with preinstalled bloatware is a thing, but Samsung mostly did it in the heyday if Facebook and Twitter integration with data plans in the US circa 2015. Newer phones and international versions have never had preinstalled social media apps, let alone installed at system level. This was a widespread issue at the time with all phones, from Motorola to ASUS, and yes, even Apple. Not a Samsung exclusive issue.

Currently, even Samsung applications can be uninstalled. There’s ads, on the Galaxy store, where you are supposed to have ads. They are no more intrusive than looking at recommended apps on the Play store or the AppStore.

There’s one bit of dark pattern left, and it is after major upgrades, Samsung will show a notification suggesting to install recommended apps. But you can touch “don’t show this again” and it goes away forever. I’ve never seen an ad on my s24 phone ever.

So, my suggestion is to not blindly trust everything you hear on the internet. No matter how geeky and knowledgeable the people may seem. Just find variety and diversity of POVs to form a more complex and nuanced opinion, even seek personal experience. Not just stay with a single person’s biased opinion. And definitely don’t parrot loudly something that you have no first hand experience with.

The register machine literally let’s you input the amount of cash given by the customer and it tells you how much to give back as change. You are just refusing to do your job at this point for no reason when the machine is already doing the math for you.

Not really, it’s just how much better Vulkan is compared to DX12. It’s mostly about having a way better async scheduler for multi-CPU multi-threading hardware.
