syncthing fork ran just fine always enabled. Basicsync seems to suck down my battery like crazy

anyone know if there is any way around the flickering on linux with a gtx 1080?

no he didn’t. They asked for a password that the phone would accept. They weren’t even supposed to ask, but he gave them one. They’re the ones who entered it on the phone. And by extension they’re the ones who erased the phone.

i like having a usable desktop and a nonblinking disk access led within 30 seconds, including bios and bootloader.

I wanted to learn hardware design by designing a basic risc-v processor, ben eater style, kind of like a 1970s minicomputer, with expansion slots for new isa extensions and CSRs. But obviously using real breadboards for experimentation would be too slow when designing a 32 bit processor. I had never touched an hdl before.

So I sat down and started writing my own simulator and netlist generation dsl from scratch. It only works at the gate level, no behavioral synthesis, but flexible enough to write components modelling, for example, 74 series chips. It does vhdl-like delta cycle simulation using 8-valued logic, but without vhdl’s signal forwarding footgun.

I then implemented an rv32i processor with full m-mode support, and a risc-v emulator in rom to trap and silently emulate any missing extension instructions. When a new expansion board is plugged in, those instructions are simply not trapped and are accelerated in hardware.

I then learned just enough systemverilog to faithfully transliterate the generated netlist into structural verilog, and it actually synthesized and worked perfectly on an fpga.

I am now in the process of very slowly designing boards to hopefully one day manage to build the whole thing out of discrete 74hc series logic

not having kids. I still think it was the right decision for me

i’ve had a copy for years… Why is this news now?

oh god… we have built everything on microsoft stuff and the higher ups insist that anything that legally can be hosted on the cloud be migrated to azure. This will cause us (the actual workers) untold levels of pain if it were mandated by the eu.

I still wish it does become mandatory though

i thought it was stupid before, and I still do

i don’t want flatpak either

which they control

and the os. Always the os, if it has root access :)

but the sandbox is controlled by google, of course. They might need to snoop on your app for “accessibility reasons” (no pun intended)

as a beginner, this was what made me move away from ubuntu years ago. And something wrong will sometimes end up with you messing up your system. Ubuntu just isn’t a good beginner’s distro anymore.

eh, the lots of info thing cuts both ways. You’ll find a Lot of outdated advice

because nvidia has somehow convinced the gaming world that hardware has become powerful enough for realtime path tracing. It has not. Not by a long shot. And not anytime soon.

pity there is almost nothing above or below the ground. The verticality was utterly wasted

windows does add a bit of value. It is a set of apis that the oss community can’t just decide to deprecate and think it’s fine because “all the code needs is a recompilation!”.

I have not had a single native linux port %hat is out of support and still works 100%. The most reliable option for me so far is to just run the windows version.

if you use a vm, you still need a legit copy of windows (lol)

nope, they’re talking about blurry pixelated messes when running on epic settings on a 5090, rendering at 25% scale at single digit fps.
