Lol, the nomenclature has always been a bit scuffed. Do you refer to desktop 64bit as x86_64 or amd64? (There’s history behind those…)

Eh, I welcome the iteration. It gives people a reason to practice and hey, who knows, maybe they’ll come up with something neat while rewriting curl or something

Last time I checked the HA app uses the system tool, which just uses Google Home behind the scenes. Apple Home is probably the only other implementation of the pairing tool.

Whoa, hold on now, this take could introduce a new wave of tech scammers that actually sound like they know what they are talking about…

/s

Matter makes sense on paper but it’s not really doing anything more than a standardized interface for MQTT traffic could do and damn Google has a way of fucking up simple stuff. Take a look at their repo for matter. Monolith of submodules and a goofy recursive project structure that requires multiple python virtual environments and external tools to build – to the point where they have another repo just to distribute binaries of the build tools last known to work.

It’s completely unnecessary and impossible to integrate cleanly into any existing system.

Well, technically nothing implements the pairing mechanism entirely right now so yeah, at least the pairing still phones home. I believe homeassistant requires you to use google home to pair the device to it (though that may change, the extension is still in beta)

Yeah, either DD or the dm-crypt trick for filling the drive with crypto-grade randomness https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dm-crypt/Drive_preparation

8GB of Ram has left the chat…

Am I the only one who kind of likes the video editing profile Blender has?

Yeah, the only thing kind of close is GPL3’s infectious license and that still allows for profit use assuming the code is opened. (Harder to be evil here but technically still possible.)

Unfortunately this will cause issues if the community attempts to do anything with this package later as well. See the fiasco with Multimc and Polymc. Nobody came out of that looking particularly inviting for devs. I feel bad for the one guy that walked the line between the two licenses for as long as he did. I just ended up jumping to the community fork because they addressed my issues faster and their license ended up being more permissive.

Just be a little careful here. There are distro live images that Ventoy does not support. They are rare but they do exist.

Yeah, I’ve noticed occasional regressions in video decode performance between kernel releases but they tend to fix them in the next release.

Otherwise smoother sailing than Nvidia for sure.

Yeah. Only thing missing is the GUC/HUC firmware source and loading that should be optional still.

Also those type of blog posts tend to rub people the wrong way when they are written by the creator. Apparently other people see them as a call-out post more that something informative.

Bottom for life (or at least until something with more stats comes out)

That’s… that’s the point. Vanilla, as in no modifications.

Only true if the printer supports IPP Everywhere or one of the offshoots. Otherwise you need drivers. Sometimes you still need drivers for ink level reporting (glaring at the HP printer in the corner of my room).

If you’re going to marginalize a subset of an already marginalized community then nothing will ever be enough. What kind of an argument is this anyway?
