ozymandias117 , to Technology in The Framework Laptop 13 is about to become one of the world’s first RISC-V laptops

Google is certainly planning on it being viable.

They’ve been merging RISC-V support in Android and have documented the minimum extensions over the base ISA that must be implemented for Android certification

ozymandias117 , to Technology in Apple is bringing RCS to the iPhone in iOS 18 | The new standard will replace SMS as the default communication protocol between Android and iOS devices

If you’re relying on iMessage for privacy, ensure you and everyone you’re messaging have gone to iCloud settings and enabled “Advanced Data Protection”

Ohhhh I read the congee statement as you shouldn’t eat it, not that you should

Now I understand. Thanks!

ozymandias117 , to World News in China Is Trying to Remake Uyghur Kitchens

Not exactly - I’m wondering if 酸粥 is being discouraged, while the Han are still eating 稀飯

ozymandias117 , to World News in China Is Trying to Remake Uyghur Kitchens

Do you know what the link to Uyghur is?

The Han Chinese people I know from Shaanxi still seem to eat congee regularly

Is there something lost in translation that the Uyghur style congee is different than the Han style or something?

I literally linked you to the Reddit comment, and pointed out that Google’s response used the same measurements as the comment

Are you an LLM?

ozymandias117 , to Technology in CEO of Google Says It Has No Solution for Its AI Providing Wildly Incorrect Information

In this case, it seems pretty likely. We know Google paid Reddit to train on their data, and the result used the exact same measurement from this comment suggesting putting Elmer’s glue in the pizza:

And their deal with Reddit:

ozymandias117 , to Technology in Elon Musk's xAI plans to build 'Gigafactory of Compute' by fall 2025 — using 100,000 Nvidia's H100 GPUs

It’s also funny to use “giga” in the marketing when everyone else is dealing with petabytes

ozymandias117 , to Technology in So here's a story of, by far, the weirdest bug I've encountered in my CS career.

A “fun” one I ran into was all our tests passing on my desk, but failing in the test farm

After a month, we realized that having an HDMI cable plugged into the unit was corrupting the SD card due to a memory overwrite in the graphics stack

ozymandias117 , to Technology in It looks a lot like VMware just lost a 24,000-VM customer • The Register

LXC is for containers, rather than virtual machines

I was just saying “obsolete” isn’t a good description; All three still have uses depending on your goals

LXC is probably better for most people, and I think Podman is one of the best rootless container options

ozymandias117 , to Technology in It looks a lot like VMware just lost a 24,000-VM customer • The Register

Xen is a type 1 hypervisor, KVM is a type 2 hypervisor

It runs on the bare metal itself as dom0

ozymandias117 , to Technology in T-Mobile imposes $5 monthly price hike on customers using older plans

I tested where I happen to be, and T-mobile 5G was 7 Mbps and LTE was 34 Mbps

I’m not saying 5G can’t be better, but it’s rarely been better on T-mobile for me in about 5 different states in the US

ozymandias117 , to Technology in T-Mobile imposes $5 monthly price hike on customers using older plans

pack our plans with value and build out the industry's best 5G network

I’ve generally needed to disable 5G on their network because it was slower than LTE. 5G has only been useful in places they didn’t have coverage before in my experience

Buy it for life

ozymandias117 , to Technology in Microsoft says “Prism” translation layer does for Arm PCs what Rosetta did for Macs

Huh?

32-bit ARM and x86 were both from 1985…

It did take ARM a lot longer to make 64-bit work
