In these kind of tech forums, I found that a lot of users don’t truly grasp how tech illiterates can be
And of course there is an XKCD about this: Average Familiarity (2501)
Title text:
How could anyone consider themselves a well-rounded adult without a basic understanding of silicate geochemistry? Silicates are everywhere! It's hard to throw a rock without throwing one!
TPM is the Trusted Platform Module, a security chip in computers that can be used to verify the integrity of the boot process. Windows 11 requires a TPM 2.0 chip, which many older computers do not have. Windows 11 non-TPM is a pirated version with this requirement hacked out.
You and i read different things.
Apparently we did.
I hated how he worded them, but his arguments at greppable and understandable are valid arguments that go beyond rust and if he can read it or not or refuses to.
I'm failing to see how Rust code is not greppable unless you don't speak Rust.
Mixing languages in a part of a project brings complexity and is often a huge ass nono because it makes things unreadable and hard to manage on a large scale.
An argument which I would acknowledge, but if the decision to do this has been made by the group it still is weird to see it blocked by an individual.
He also argues that a c interface exists to connect 2 parts of a system. The person that changes the interface should not have to alter the users of that interface, [...] So if he changes the interface, the rust team will need to fix it, specially since they are the minority.
Nobody asked Hellwig to do this, in fact Krummrich said several times they would maintain the interface consuming the C code themselves. They just want one common interface for all Rust drivers, instead of replicating the same code in each driver. Which Hellwig never gives a substantial reply to.
That also doesnt mean he can change it in whatever way without worry, it is an interface change, that needs discussions and approvals ahead of time ofc.
Again not how I'm reading that thread. As Krummrich put it:
Surely you can expect maintainers of the Rust abstraction to help with integrating API changes -- this isn't different compared to driver / component maintainers helping with integrating fundamental API changes for their affected driver / component, like you've mentioned videobuf2-dma stuff.
How do you figure?
The only two "technical" arguments I could see were firstly that code should
[remain] greppable and maintainable
which unless I'm missing something boils down to "I don't speak Rust", and secondly that
The only reason Linux managed to survive so long is by not having internal boundaries, and adding another language complely breaks this
which unless I'm missing something boils down to "I don't speak Rust", because ain't nobody trying to add any other languages to the Linux code base.
Surely this can't be the "decent technical reasoning" you are referring to? I have to admit I don't follow kernel development that closely, but I was under the impression that integrating Rust into the code base was a long discussed initiative having the "official" blessing of the higher ups among the maintainers by now, so it seems odd to see it opposed in such harsh terms by a subsystem maintainer here:
I absolutely support using Rust in new codebase, but I do not at all in Linux.
Are they serious, like showing images of Musk doing this is unlawful?
Potentially, which I guess might have been the entire point. The ZPS is no stranger to provoking law suites, and since Musk did this in the US this might be their attempt at baiting the German jurisdiction to take a stance on it.
That said the article you linked says the police talks about having an "Anfangsverdacht" (initial suspicion), which basically means "we have heard about it and will look into it".
Das war eine rhetorische Frage. Glaub ich dir schon das Leute dem Musk aus politischem Opportunismus beispringen würden.
Bekannter Troll? Das war mir jetzt natürlich auch neu. Gibt es dafür eine Quelle?
Hier, ich bin die Quelle. Aber gut ich beiße mal.
Ob Elon Musk da bewusst gehandelt hat, ist übrigens umstritten.
Von wem, den Blinden?
Not what OP said over on the (now deleted) Reddit post:
So the ad was supposed to play in that black box and this is a bug?
I had Bob's Burgers on in the background but was playing a game with my kid. The silence caught my attention, but not at first. At first I assumed it was a, "choose your commercial" thing.
After some more time I thought maybe it was asking if I was still watching, that's when I looked up to see this
I waited, nothing. I made a verbal comment and the whole family started looking. We waited, nothing.
I grabbed my phone, snapped the pic, made the post (but didn't actually post it), and it was still sitting there.
I guessed an answer, got it right, and the show came back
Then I hit "post" to actually make the post.
Some people say it went away on its own. Others say, like me, they had to answer, and others said even after answering it didn't go away
I've had Bob's Burgers on all morning and I've yet to see this again
Can't speak to historic usage, but today "am" (an dem) means "on" or "near", and "im" (in dem) means "in".
So the literal translation would be "lick me in the arse".
The translator may have made some mistakes, the original quote might actually actually go: “we are going to get you”
Yes it does, the translation actually has several mistakes. Here is a better one (from deepl.com/translator):
The short scene takes place in a Bundestag canteen. Former Environment Minister Barbara Hendricks from the SPD describes it at the lectern. A member of staff from the AfD parliamentary group noticed “that someone else was ordering a vegetarian dish”, reports Hendricks. In response, the AfD employee said: “We'll get you too, you grain-eaters.”
Kudos. FYI they seem to have defaced your sidebar.
Oh it's irony you wanted?
What the hell is going on with that community? :D
Für mein letztes Handy mit wechselbarem Akku hatte ich sogar einen zweite Akku, war sogar standardmäßig dabei, aber den hab ich nie gebraucht, der lag nur in der Schublade.
Naja da spielen ja auch noch andere Sachen rein, wie das man lange Zeit einfach alle paar Jahre neu kaufen musste wegen der krassen Verbesserungen in der Hardware, das die meisten Smartphones nur kurze Zeit Softwareupdates bekommen, und so weiter. Aber ich schweife ab.
Der Punkt ist Stand heute könntest du so ein Telefon locker 10-20 Jahre betreiben statt "nur" 4-6, was die meisten Leute ja eh schon nicht machen, aber das ist den Herstellerinteressen halt diametral entgegengesetzt.
Aktuelle Zahlen zeigen ja auch, dass die Akkus deutlich haltbarer sind, als gerne so in den Raum geworfen wird.
Interessant, danke für den Hinweis.
Ob das in China erfolgreich ist, oder einfach nur gemacht wird, weil es staatlich subventioniert ist, kann ich nicht einschätzen.
Na das war ja der Punkt auf den ich die ganze Zeit hinaus wollte. Das kann glaube ich nur erfolgreich sein wenn es, zumindest zu Beginn, staatlich unterstützt wird. Henne-Ei-Problem.
Meine Prognose ist da 180° umgekehrt, aber im Prinzip ist es mir auch wurscht.
Wie gesagt, reden wir in 20 Jahren nochmal drüber. In der Zwischenzeit danke für die angenehme Unterhaltung.
I'll just leave this here: https://media.ccc.de/c/38c3
Not sure if you can strictly call these "video essays", these are talks from the last Chaos Communication Congress that happened roughly two weeks ago. There are a lot of German ones, but many are in English as well (you can tell by the title). For the German ones there will usually be an English translation available, but as these are done live and many talks are deeply technical the quality will vary.
You also can go to older conferences by iterating the number in the URL down (37c3, 36c3, etc.)
One of the best English talks this year was from some Polish hackers about the legal aftermath of hacking a train (hired by the owner to do so, the manufacturer wasn't too happy though). The technical side of the hack they already talked about on the congress last year, so might make sense to watch both videos:

As for what to watch specifically when high, if you have any interest in cognitive sciences and AI at all the obvious recommendation would be this:
Das ist wie bei Handys, schaut man sich an, was vor 20 Jahren State-of-the-Art war, ist die Entwicklung schon heftig
Verstehe was du meinst, aber interessanterweise ist das ja auch das perfekte Gegenbeispiel. Vor 20 Jahren war SOTA das du bei jedem Mobiltelefon den Akku wechseln konntest, weil das halt nach wie vor ein Verschleißteil ist und damals auch noch ne Ecke anfälliger war als heute. Und jetzt sind die bei so gut wie keinem Model mehr wechselbar, weil das für die Hersteller eine super Methode ist gleich ein komplettes neues Telefon zu verkaufen anstatt nur einen neuen Akku. Sprich die Hersteller haben schlicht keinen finanziellen Anreiz das zu machen, eher im Gegenteil, also machen sie es nicht mehr. Hooray for planned obsolescence.
Gut das Argument ist jetzt bei einem Elektroauto (noch) nicht dasselbe, da kann man kaputte Akkus normalerweise wechseln lassen immerhin, auch wenn ich mir hab sagen lassen dass das bei vielen Herstellern fast soviel kostet wie ein Neuwagen.
Was aber ja vergleichbar ist, ist das wir eine offensichtlich nützliche technische Möglichkeit mal wieder liegen lassen weil deren Entwicklung und Standardisierung zu teuer wäre, und Hersteller Negativanreize haben. Während chinesische Firmen halt einfach mal wieder machen, anscheinend mit Erfolg. Wir werden in 20 Jahren sehen welcher Ansatz erfolgreicher war, aber ich hab da eine Prognose.
Glad to hear you got it fixed!
even then I can only see the first minute
This has started to happen to me recently but only as long as I have scripts from the jnn-pa.gogleapis.com
domain blocked. If I allow that one videos load beyond the first minute. This also seems to only happen randomly. Might be related to new uploads, but not sure about that.
Seconded, best history channel on Youtube that I know of. Only downside is that there are months between episodes, which isn't surprising though given the in-depth analysis presented in each.
