Intel is almost flawless, I say as someone who uses an Intel A750. It does have a bug where putting load on the GPU causes a dramatic increase in latency for GPU compute tasks, but that’s mostly only important for VR. Flatscreen games work great.

lvra.gitlab.io is a great source of info for vr on linux. The discord server you mentioned is also bridged to Matrix for those who don’t want to use discord.

IIRC robot vacuums usually use a single Time of Flight (ToF) sensor that rotates, giving the robot a 2d scan of it’s surroundings. This is sufficient for a vacuum which only needs to operate on a flat surface, but self driving vehicles need a better understanding of their surroundings than just a thin slice.

That’s why cars might use over 30 distinct ToF sensors, each at a different vertical angle, that are then all placed in the rotating module, giving the system a full 3d scan of it’s surroundings. I would assume those modules are much more expensive, though still insignificant compared to the cost of a car sold on the idea of self driving.

Wait, do normie phone, just, instantly open an untrusted website? The camera on LineageOS has a “scan” mode where it shows the data of scanned QR codes before you make an action.

Blind people cannot drive. They exist. Or how about people too young to get a driving permit? Or people who cannot afford to buy, maintain, insure and store a vehicle?

Reducing car dependency increases mobility.

IIRC some self-driving systems even break road laws by not coming to a full stop at stop signs.

Out of all of these, motion blur is the worst, but second to that is Temporal Anti Aliasing. No, I don’t need my game to look blurry with every trailing edge leaving a smear.

I had My minecraft server scanned by at least 3 different bots, and I even had some friendly guy join my server that apparently found it using a bot he wrote. I’m now using a whitelist lol. One of the account names that scanned my server was "Fifth Column, which is a griefing group.

That seems like a small price to pay to have a dark magician girl decal in people’s faces in bumper to bumper traffic lol.

There’s plenty of good, open source UX in FOSS. Have you seen the Gnome family of apps? They look great and are easy to understand.

This is exactly what I do too. I started half a year ago and have no regrets yet.

There already is one called Flare. It uses rust IIRC.

$4.99 to plug in their camera

I guess the hope is that a large amount of people will suddenly switch to Linux, maybe because of social media popularity, a breaking windows change, or maybe a popular computer manufacturer shipping only Linux by default.

But even if that does happen, I would think it would result in an increased adoption rate, not everyone switching to Linux over the course of a year.

The slogan is a complete meme at this point. A meme that indicates it’s the year of the linux desktop!

I’m not completely sure, but doesn’t Bitwarden encrypt all data before it reaches the server? That means the server implementation is a bit less important. I guess you probably don’t want to be leaking even encrypted databases though since there is a chance they could be cracked.

Don’t worry. They can send the reports to /dev/null where they will be read by Tim Apple himself when he checks it.

That’s what I thought too. Must be all the “AI” this and “NVidia” that dominating news.

IDK why they are listing distros. They could just provide a wireguard config and be like “If you have wireguard, you can use the VPN”, and 99% of distros would be supported.

In Canada, we have Via rail. They line you up like you’re at an airport and check your ticket before you board the train, and also check your ticket once you’re on the train. They also have enforced weight restrictions on baggage. The trains share tracks with freight, meaning that the train has to stop every once in a while to let a freight train pass. All this to take longer than driving and cost alot as well.
