Is it T2 Mac? Did you use T2Linux?

The law doesn’t require cookie questions to be dickovers.

Haven’t heard anything about that. I think they finalized the deal last year. Election system plan canceled, though.

Good. Finland just last year spent some 600 million euros on new AI system running on AWS, built by a USA company, that, once it’s completed, will handle social insurance related applications. If you need something like unemployment benefits, disability/sickness related benefits, etc. all the necessary information required to handle your application will be handed to that system.

It’s even harder to praise the actions of USA’s government.

I expect nothing more from them. Although, calling it “Temu something something” is an insult to Chinese goods.

How long will it take until they turn Minority Report into reality? “The AI said you were going to commit an act of terrorism/murder/robbery, so we’ll jail you before you cause any harm”

Scalpers are already selling it like double the MSRP.

Took me an hour to get my order through. Delivery estimate slipped from 3-5 days to 6-10 days while I hammered the button. At least I managed to get the order through.

It seems to be sold out now, at least here in Europe.

Peace President keeping up the peace with yet another war.

If you want to confirm that, launch one or all of your WinBoat apps. While they are running, run pidof windows. If that gave some pids, run pstree -sp <pid>. That command shows the parent processes, with their pids, of the <pid> . WinBoat probably should be among the parents of the “windows” process.

4 hours is unhealthy for most humans. If you consume caffeine (coffee, energy drinks, etc.) it can affect your sleep.

/proc is a special directory that is populated by procfs, a special kind of filesystem. It contains information about running processes. Each sub-directory contains information for one process. When you launch an application, it’s assigned some process id. Every time you launch the application, it gets a different process id.

You can try and find the application by running which windows. If the application is in your PATH, that tells where it is.

That command only killed the process, in other words, it “closed the program”. Rebooting the computer would have had the same exact effect. The application is still in your computer, unless it decided to self-destruct.

Tennis balls are bad for dog’s dental health. They are abrasive, and can wear down the teeth.

If individual game won’t work, it’s not a problem with the Linux distro you have chosen. First step to solving such problems is looking at ProtonDB. Crimson Desert seems to have a Gold rating, which means, it should work well, but needs some tinkering.

That US site’s data includes both mobile and desktop. With a bit of math, you get Linux’s desktop marketshare over 30 days as 7,1%.

Steam’s February data is heavily influenced by Chinese new year. If you only consider Linux Steam users who have set English as their Steam language, Linux’s marketshare is 8,28%.

If running Home Assistant is all you are going to do, Pi is enough. There’s also official hardware with Home Assistant preinstalled: Home Assistant Green

Just because one option is better than another, doesn’t mean it’s good.

OS level age check applies to everyone, not just children. Some legislations require strong age checking, which means you need to send some identification to some service. You won’t be able to know how the information is handled, for how long it’s stored and for what purposes it’s used beside age checking. And because this applies to everyone, and is required to be able to use your computer, everything you do with your computer and phone is tied to your user account, and as such to you as an individual and identifiable human being.

Some of these legislations uses age ranges, and the OS is required to inform applications, and such, whether the user is, for example, below 13 years old, or 13 to 16 years old, etc. Consider this simple scenario: Some user uses some application, and the OS reports the user’s age as below 13. The user uses the same app the next day, but now the OS reports the user’s age as 13 to 16 years old. Can you figure out the user’s exact birthday and age? If that application is part of some kind of larger network of advertisers and whatnots, they will now forever know the user’s exact age without the OS reporting anything else.

These can also be used to make some software illegal, especially free and open source software. If you can replace Windows with Linux, Photoshop with Gimp, etc. it hurts the bottom line of those companies. Those companies can’t prevent you from using the open source alternative, but it would be in their interest if those pieces of software becomes illegal to use and distribute. If age checking functionality is added to some open source software, the age checking can simply be removed by the user. You only need to correctly form the age checking law and that entire software is now illegal, and must be removed from the internet.

While the intention of these laws might to be to protect children, they cause too much harm for little good. The age checking can be circumvented in some situations, meaning the children aren’t protected. And the entire thing is a huge privacy mess (data leaks, etc.) for every single computer user.
