Research from a few years ago was able to measure gait (so a person’s height and build etc) from the wifi shadow of a single router.

I assume 3 is to get the super accurate placement.

They’re both “immutable” in the sense that they’re setting up either read-only Filesystem Hierarchies (as in bazzite, which uses ostree) or Symlinking their entire filesystem hierarchy to a read-only “store” (as in nixos).

Bazzite uses something called ostree to “diff” the filesystem hierarchy much like git does, while Nix basically makes giant read-only store of files and hashes them, then weaves them all together into a “view” of a filesystem that gets symlinked into the context of a running program.

A real flatpak cake would come wrapped in the oven used to bake it.

I know of matrix, what are some other alternatives?

Also a protocol that got falsely maligned during the crypto days was secure scuttlebutt, and people should be talking about it more.

I assume a lot of android foss app developers are going to refuse to register and the projects are going to need to be forked.

Personally I’m getting an old feature phone and an ipad mini that only has wifi. If my choice is between apple iOS and google iOS I’d rather just not use anything to do with Google.

These only work with ARM cpus I think

Unless revanced somehow gets the APKs resigned it will almost certainly destroy revanced.

iOS has had this same system for forever and nobody’s ever (seriously) claimed you could sideload on there.

If you’re putting in that much work, please submit those edits to musicbrainz! We need all the help we can get 😭

As a musicbrainz editor, don’t depend entirely on Picard and musicbrainz for correct tagging either cause shit isn’t as well curated as you think.

You need to encode the metadata in a standard way, encode new data that shows up in a standard way, and various people can add more metadata to files: think like Posix ACLs or the immutable flag or whatever.

Nix actually invented a fork of tar specifically for this called “normalized archive” or “Nix Archive” or nar. Guix uses this too:

https://releases.nixos.org/nix/nix-2.22.0/manual/protocols/nix-archive.html

“here is a checksum of my /usr/lib folder, if yours differs from mine I can’t provide installation support”

I’m a big fan of them new fangled gravastars too.

rats, rats, we are the rats

That’s good and also somewhat disappointing as they were the first to release the weights and mechanism to run them as open weights.

A lot of fully open source (and “ethically trained”, depending on your opinion of that entire idea) models still use major portions of the code they open sourced.

A lot of relatively “good” LLM models run on top of Llama.cpp

Hey, Guix user here, I…if you want we… We could recommend to each other…

I don’t think that’s accurate because they asked Dlsite before them to restrict their content based on American Law. They tried to remove access to content from outside Japan that Visa was complaining about and Visa still told them to remove the content (I guess cause people were using VPNs) so they had to remove the ability to pay with visa and Mastercard entirely.

“Unlawful” based on what? American law?

These are global payment companies, they can’t just have a “we don’t allow payment for illegal content” cause that varies by country (and by state even).

What an absolutely nothing statement.

Payment processors are monopolies for online and electronic payments because there is no global infrastructure (outside Chinese offerings) for electronic payments that don’t rely on Visa and Mastercard.
