AFAIK: Development at AMD funded the dev to make it support AMD GPUs (instead of the then-supported Intel GPUs), Dev keeps a clause saying any and all work will remain open even if contract is cancelled, work is then halted by AMD and dev releases his updates on his repo, Legal then says later that the clause was not legally binding and can’t be enforced or such, making dev rollback to earlier Intel version

Holy hell

Well, off to visit your mother!

The Bet, by Anton Chekov. That story has given me my existentialism

Just gotta invoke skynetctl

It was initially intended to be a video stream handler, but they had concerns with audio syncing. They figured they might as well also handle audio in one cohesive AV server instead

'tis how LLM chatbots work. LLMs by design are autocomplete on steroids, so they can predict what the next word should be in a sequence. If you give it something like:

Here is a conversation between the user and a chatbot. <insert description of chatbot>

<insert chat history here>

User: <insert user message here>

Chatbot:

Then it’ll fill in a sentence to best fit that prompt, much like a creative writing exercise

Containers, the concept that Docker implements, lets app developers give a self-contained environment for distribution. For devs that means consistency in deployments across environments, which in turn means sysadmins can deploy each of these apps as fully isolated units.

With that, you get really clean installs/updates/uninstalls, and your deployments get done with a well-defined, declarative definition file which can also handle multi service dependencies (a la Docker Compose/K8s)

I find it funny it didn’t point out Active Directory

Ooh can I get an equivalent for zsh? :D

I’m genuinely having a chuckle at how shocked people are at my submission, made my day xD

To add on to this explanation, you generally use source ~/.bashrc to reload your shell whenever you want to make changes to your user config. Tab completion weakens the barrier to destruction significantly (esp. in my case)

source ~/.bash_history

I feel like that’d defeat the purpose of having redundancy in case the main instance itself goes down 🤔

As an Indian myself this makes me happy :D

Android has an Enterprise feature that allows devices to have an isolated “Work” profile from their Personal profile, complete with separate accounts and apps (though your device IDs are still likely shared due to it being the same device)

There’s this project called Island that allowed anyone to set it up on their own devices

Ah I figured I had that one wrong, thanks!

Because systemd (the project) extends more than just systemd (the init system). It also includes things like:

• systemd-journald (system logging)
• systemd-timesyncd (Network Time Sync)
• NetworkManager systemd-networkd (network interface/connection management)
• systemd-homed (Home directory management)
• systemd-resolved (DNS Resolver)

and so many more

Now, in my personal opinion, I do find it good in that these being under one umbrella project led to fairly good integration between these aspects of “system management” as a whole. But I do also concede that this may feel like too many responsibilities handled by one project

Not particularly, most of my use has been on a desktop or laptop 😅

DWService is a favourite of mine. One self-contained program to run on the target, and a web-based interface to interact with it
