unaffected by EMP were everywhere.

They called them books.

Out of curiosity what the range and/or power for an EMP pulse to brick my microSD with Zim files on it?

Wondering what’s the actual risk of such a thing happening, what kind of scenarii would this require?

people on Lemmy could have some empathy and not just assume that everyone driving a Tesla is sanctioning anything that Elon Musk does.

Costs 1 EUR and takes 10sec to put a sticker on a Tesla that says “I bought this before Elon went mad” and plenty of people on Lemmy would understand I bet. It’s more of a gesture to show that one having a Tesla does not support the actions of the its CEO. A Tesla without even a sticker on is assumed to be owned by someone who knows yet either does not care or even supports Musk.

True, but most CEOs are unknown to consumers, only to employees and share-holders. Usually there is a “culture” of a company that is a blend of PR, advertising, marketing, etc. Here Musk became associated with the brand though. Tesla existed before Musk and worked well… but was nowhere near a popular. I hate Musk yet I feel it’s fair (and please if you have data showing I’m wrong, do share, I’d love to remove any wrongful attributed credit from him) to say he made Tesla enormously more popular than before he invested in it. So… you are right in most cases people buy cars, and other products, without knowing about the CEO but that specifically does not apply to Tesla where the hype precisely came from a self branded as IronMan.

meant to be a “revolution” in gaming…

If you tried Half-life: Alyx and don’t find it revolutionary then I’d be curious to know what’s enough for you. It’s not popular, sure, but it doesn’t mean the quality of the few experiences that do exist aren’t legitimate.

Text to 3D models I use AI with my 3D printer

Can you please share some models you printed this way? Curious to see. I have 3D printers at home and tried few 3D models e.g. PifHUD or TripoSR but never went all the way to printing any as I didn’t find the quality sufficient. This was months ago or more so I imagine better models exist, also maybe you have a better workflow.

demanding that we prove that we’re using copilot to generate code

Because that’s how one gets value right? It’s not because the tool is so efficient people WANT to use it even though they should not (e.g. due to commercial secrets)… no instead you force them to use it. /s

I just wanted the machine to turn-on, work, and play some games.

And that was before the SteamDeck too.

Ah! Thanks for sharing those visuals!

DataHand, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DataHand

Yep, typing this on a Corne-ish Zen. Funnily enough saw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bTI6WUJxD4 yesterday and my first thought was “No. ALL my keys get to work hard!”

Absolutely. I learned about that decades ago as a teenager and never would I have thought it would still be useful today… yet, in 2025 if you want to do anything powerful, in the cloud, on your phone, even in your XR headset, it is STILL relevant!

PS: I project I’m contributing to on the topic https://nlnet.nl/project/xrsh/ ideas welcomed!

Yeah it happened to all of us. The console is powerful and it means when you mess up, it will have BIG consequences. One learns to test first before globbing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glob_(programming) too much!

Very nice, I don’t seem to have that option available but I can right-click on a filename to open the file manager in the current directory. Good to know!

It’s actually even more efficient because one can search through the list of all available buttons.

reverse-i-search (typically ctrl-r) or ~/.bashrc (or whatever your alternative shell configuration file equivalent is) means one doesn’t have to memorize much indeed, especially while commenting properly.

CLI is effective also because of its history (i.e. one can go back, repeat a command as-is or edit it then repeat) but also the composability of its components. If one made a useful command before, it can be combined with another useful command.

Rinse & repeat and it makes for a very powerful tool.

FWIW I do use the file browser too when I’m looking for a file with a useful preview, e.g. images.

When I do have to handle a large amount of files though (e.g. more than a dozen) and so something “to them”, rather than just move them around, then the CLI becomes very powerful.

It’s not because one uses the CLI that one never used a file browser.

Then please help https://github.com/EFForg/rayhunter/issues/65

My notes on it https://fabien.benetou.fr/ReadingNotes/AmusingOurselvesToDeath

But yes, stop scrolling, read it.

I’d take that bet. I imagine at least some drivers would notice something sus’ (due to depth perception, which should be striking as you get close, or lack of ANY movement or some kind of reflection) and either

• slow down
• use a trick, e.g. flicking lights or driving a bit to the sides and back, to try to see what’s off

or probably both, but anyway as other already said, it’s being compared to other autopilot systems, not human drivers.
