It extends all the way to europe, TI-84’s were a must and still are. They sell that relic for around €100 still.

Yeah I haven’t seen the pregnancy test one, can’t really claim it’s the test running it when it’s not. Definitely agree with your point as well.
If you replace all the internals it’s not the same, I get your point. But not every Doom-run is like that. These days they run some kind of busybox on any smart device, so technically any smart device could run doom. But the way they do it is still incredibly interesting.
That’s some serious gatekeeping lmao, I thought we were past that. Having a high level layer makes it easier to run custom code yes, but gaining access to that layer is the definition of hardware hacking. Not breaking the original functionality (or in this case expanding on it) is still impressive and encapsulates the original spirit of ‘you can run Doom on anything’ perfectly.
You just described any smart device out there, why wouldn’t it count?
Scanned the img with my NFC reader, can now walk in Merc Headquarters! Thanks!
When you put all the five year olds on earth in one room, every one of you would be able to compare two blocks, a rod and a ball. Depending on how you were thought you either pass the rod along or the ball. Then some very smart people came up with special ways to do very hard maths using those blocks.
Now, in the olden days they kept the way they thought those kids a secret. But we knew what the results were, so we could all do much harder math then we could do in our heads. So while the other adults knew how to pack you all closer together and needed new ways to do even harder math, there was a group of good people who didn’t really like all the secrecy and thought that they were doing it way to complicated but couldn’t do anything about it.
Like it always is, years went by and the world changed, they kept making up new rules on how the blocks should be passed around so it became slower. Those good people then decided we should be simplifying, to make it faster yet again! “And no more secrecy!” - They said. “So everyone can build their own mini five year old sweat shops and it would cost significantly less then it does now!”
I’m thinking the same way smartphones are solved where only small increments of improvement happen. Radical changes happenen, like folding phones or the rise of Tiktok. Some have long lasting problems like the former, but the latter managed to pick a fight with the giants and come out on top.
Back to market terms, they’re mature but new players have proven to disrupt the market. When the general public start caring about privacy, federated social media will rise. Seeing how that is quite a politicised thing, progress will be slow. I’d love to be proven wrong though.
I think social media is a solved problem at this point, you’ll need something radical or game changing to actually break through in this market. Combined with the fact that the fediverse is inherently much more difficult to monetize I don’t see many companies taking on that challenge.
FOSS projects might though, but they tend to grow too slow to be disruptive.
I get it, the inventory is just a list of all servers and PC you are trying to manage and the playbooks contain every step you would take if you would configure everything manually.
I’ll be honest when you first set it up it’s daunting but that’s the thing! You only need to do it once, then you can deploy and redeploy anything you have in minutes.
You’re going to love SolidPods, honestly. From the website:
Solid is a specification that lets individuals and groups store their data securely in decentralized data stores called Pods. Pods are like secure web servers for data. When data is stored in a Pod, its owners control which people and applications can access it.
I see no possible way that a centralized identity can be more private that an array of separate ones.
Check out the specifications as well, using Pods you could have seperate accounts on every platform linked only by the ability to login using your Pod.
convenience thing first and a privacy thing second
This is convenience and privacy, with a SolidPod you decide who stores the data. It could be you, it could be any federated instance, but that data is encrypted and you decide which application can use which data. They use a WebID (see this as a hash of your unique profile) to identify the user and this would be the only data that is shared between you and any federated instance.
And possible federation as well, very nice. Is this using SolidPods or did they just name their* server similarly?
Sorry I replied to the parent comment, but check out Ansible
Ansible is great for this!
Lmao beans fit that list, we can cringe about it all we want now but at the time we’re building community.
As someone who used reddit for 14+ years, this place feels exactly like early Reddit, a place where you actually can converse with anyone and contribute instead of yelling into the void. Realistically we will always have both, but many more will join the verse everytime Reddit has an oopsie.
You might be missing the point. Again, the EU will send them a bill and a firm letter, but they don’t have any authority to actually demand payment. That fact has nothing to do with GDPR but with the fact that it’s an entirely different sovereignty.
The EU could sue them, they could impose sanctions on other companies for dealing with said company. They have an enormous amount of power to make sure said company can never deal with anything EU related. They have tried to sue companies in the US for not complying but no outcome for that is known.
That is why you see the cookie notices and general compliance, but also if you’re a relatively small company it’s actually not that hard to comply. It gets exponentially more difficult the larger you get but if you’re that large than you’ll definitely be dealing with world economics, including the EU which gives a lot of incentive to comply.
if actually read up what GDPR is
I have and was a part of my curriculum. Bit arrogant innit
Oh so it’s a helicopter
