The story of Vesperik the Were-bat, who is not at all interested in drinking blood and only wants to hang out with his harpy and pegasus friends in the local Sky Travelers club, but somehow vampires keep finding him and offering him an ‘eternal life’ with a position of lover/butler/bodyguard and other inappropriate things.
Fast food is already as automated as it can be. Replacing cooks with robot kitchen is looks good as a management dream, but anyone who tried it quickly discovers that you need industrial robots, and they are fuckng expensive, and you need engineers anyway to maintain them. So you are replacing cheap cooks with outrageously expensive engineers.
“But no”, some ignorant CEO says, “we’re not assembling cars, we don’t need pneumatic robot arm that can lift 10 tons”. Yeah, you still need a robot arm, and it’s just a miniaturized industrial robot, not any much cheaper.
But robot kitchen exist, and they are actually very profitable. Go to your nearest grocery shop. 99% of items on the shelves were produced by a robot. Everything in a plastic wrap, everything in a jar, was produced on a conveyor. Even fresh produce involves some kind of automation.
So robots won’t fry your potatoes, because french fries have really short shelf life. Otherwise they totally could, but hiring a cook is cheaper.
So, like, regular Debian?
Ubuntu Frame now supports multiple applications on a single display
Sounds like they invented a window manager.
Please don’t implement the text version of OpenTTD
I can tell you immediately why, just looking at the photo.
Shiny stone knap knap, my spear is shinier than yours.
With Meta it very much looks like overhiring. What are those 8000 workers even doing, designing CSS for each individual ad on Facebook?
Samsung pretty much controls Android market, Google is afraid to fart sideways in their presence.
You can publish your open source app on Google Play, and this will not change. Google is also not planning to introduce $100/year publishing fee for devs like Apple, you pay $25 one time to register. There is also no real alternative open source OS for phones.
Google decision impacts apps like Termux, who use old Android API to install additional packages. If you are not planning to create Linux emulator, I guess this won’t impact you.
“Eh, they can recover from yesterday,” he said, referring to daily database backups.
But did they recover from backups? Don’t leave the most juicy intrigue out of the story.
Most web browsers will have a hard limit on WASM apps that will be around 200-300 MB of binary size, and your RAM will be limited too.
Try opening a full-featured WASM game on iPad and weep.
Source: I’ve ported an open-source game to WASM. Worked fine on my PC, not so well anywhere else.
SDL provides you a framebuffer with 640x480 pixels and 24-bit color, with a delicious pixel-perfect 8x12 monospace font, on every OS and every device, and this is everything you will ever need. Titlebar? Close button? Your app is perfect, it needs no close button. It will be running 24/7 in a fullscreen mode, and the user will be happy! Other apps? Pah! Let them run on a second, smaller monitor!
Try saying Tibet on a bus stop, and watch your ass getting hauled to the nearest police station in like 30 seconds.
Who would benefit from disrupting Ubuntu sofrware updates? Seems related to the recently discovered kernel vulnerability. Some state-funded cybercrime unit needs a bit more time to infect your servers before you update them.
It comes with a copy of Internet Explorer, and a copy of MS-DOS.
Wow, that was an intense self-diacovery.
They do use radioactive decay in archeology to measure time, but the precision is within a thousand years.
I’m not falling asleep, my laptop is falling asleep.
The problem is that it never wakes up. The solution is to disable every low-power option in system settings, and pretend that my laptop is very critical server, because Debian is made for servers.
Never heard of such clock. You’ll also need to regularly recalibrate your radioactive sample, because it decreases in weight over time. And you need a Geiger counter to measure that radiation, which is also not super precise.
A regular crystal oscillator seems better.
Pour a can of anti-fungus liquid on these boards, cover with a piece of linoleum or some waterproof rug, install your dishwasher, and leave further remodeling to your grandchildren.
