No bloatware with Chinese manufacturers? Are you dreaming? Oppos, Xiaomi, and all the sub brands of the bbk group (vivo, realme, etc) come with so much bloatware that they are forced to include an aggressive task killer and Memory cleaner to make it work properly

But those flush handles are so pretty…

From the user manual: it is so easy, in case of a fire, just calmly remove all your stuff from the door pocket, then use nails to remove the rubbery mat on the bottom of that, then take out a plastic cover, there’s a cable, pull that cable. So easy and totally intuitive when someone is panicking after an accident! /s

Ps: I wonder what the user manual means with that “if equipped” part. Some models don’t actually have the emergency unlock under the mat?

IMHO if they just give them bibi, then they will reopen it

Pope Francis, after meeting JD Vance, died the day after Easter in 2025.

It would be infinitely funny if someone else, after meeting with JD Vance, would die the day after Easter 2026 too.

Right, I asked the source of those figures (I didn’t give the source in context, it just did a web search) and I got this: https://read.engineerscodex.com/p/diving-into-claude-codes-source-code

I did not fully understand what he meant in the toot so I asked an explanation directly to the source

Surprised it described itself as a war crime and didn’t try to justify that

just the default encoder. I tried it only once and when I saw the FPS I gave up almost immediately

I doubt that it’s doing real time transcoding in av1, probably just sending the file “as-is” to your client device and you’re noticing as modern networks allow real time streaming of files with that size

My server with much newer components does like 5 fps in encoding av1

Alexa, play Despacito

Israel has an exemption, they are allowed to do all the war crimes they want

He actually said that, he said that with his magic tariffs ™ there will be billions available for daycares https://apnews.com/article/trump-economy-harris-corporate-taxes-15ba5ecfdf5e907bd9b2c349b07222b8

i realized that the problem with an hosts file is the the system will completely bypass the dns server and directly contact the address. There is the need of something that enforces an IP address blocklist at the router level like opnsense

Fun fact: Microsoft edge for Linux has a copilot button. But they forgot to implement it, so it just takes space on the menu bar (cannot be removed)

Right, it won’t ask the DNS server to resolve it, the solution requires a much more expensive blocking on firewall

Difference between Open Source and “open” source

This is “open” source and it was the main reason it got forked (lots of proprietary bits included as binary, impossible to send a PR, obfuscated code)

It’s “open” exclusively for marketing “our product is better because it’s open source” and mostly because in this way they can use GPL 3 code for libraries without paying for a different license

Fuck them

Probably making sure that the sweet telemetry reaches their server after the URL got included in some blocklist. Solves nothing as who included the URL, now will include the IP address.

In Italy if you get fired (not if you quit voluntarily) it’s mandatory by law to get 75% of salary for 104 weeks (but from the six month it will get reduced by a 3% monthly) plus the severance package is at least 6.9% of the yearly gross salary multiplied by the number of years worked there.

On top of that, most union contracts (97% of workers in the country) increase that amount of money that the company has to pay.

Finally, it’s a bureaucratic mess. You can’t just fire employees with an email sent Friday afternoon and expect to get the offices empty on Monday. In order to fire more than 5 employees over 120 days the company has to get agreement with unions (money incentive to resign; early retirement; higher and/or longer severance pay) and if it’s doesn’t get an agreement within 45 days it will need to get an agreement with the government (another 30 days) where need to pay at least a 5850 euro tax for each fired employee. So from the cuts announcement, workers have at least 2 months of full pay and full work.

The only way to fire employees “American style”, “from today you’re unemployed” in Italy it’s bankruptcy (chapter 7) but proceeds from the liquidation Will be used to pay

Thanks for this post, i would have updated mine next semester…

400 million? Wasn’t it 300, up from 200?
