This article clearly is just about the public DNS resolver. Using cloudflare to register a domain is well different, in particular cause it’ll play a “significant” role to make it accessible. (as 1. it is not neutral (you need to be a customer) and 2. Removing a registration will block it for everyone).
Next year (1st january 2024), it’ll be in the US (but just the first version from Steamboat Willie and The Gallopin’ Gaucho)
Meanwhile, Android not even wanting to accept accent is painfull.
Ariane 6 service start got late. Not Ariane 5 decommisionning. So they end with no Ariane launcher for some time.
FYI, arm can already handle most Open Source Software with no problem as far compiling them is concerned. In particular, Qt and GTK does work, and cross compiling too is very easy. Not that it’s necessary anyway (aside of probably faster compilation unless you have really good ARM CPU). In particular, QEMU have qemu-user (if you didn’t know), which basically Rosetta for Linux, but with a good performance hit when testing cross-compiled code.
Edit: In my opinion, what will switch the faster to a non-x86 on a large scale (for computers, not counting phones, tablet and microcontroller, not using them anyway) are servers. A lot of them use standard open source software, so switching might be pretty easy if the package manager abstract it (like… All of those I know).
I mean, certain cloud provider are starting to offer renting such servers (and not speaking of all those hacker who host server on raspi (and then those who use standard linux on mobile phone too))
Well… Actually, monopoly is used in French for things that isn’t stricly speaking the sole actor (sorry). There are concurrence (mostly in the form of AMD and Intel in the PC DGPU market, and others in phone/mobile GPUs).
And for mobile operating system, they would count as a duopoly. Aside of IOS and Android, there isn’t much (thought Android is a bit special by the fact it can be reused by other vendors without the google-specific parts).
Actually, maybe the DGPU market could be seen as a triopoly (not much choice beside Intel, AMD and NVidia).
(and if we don’t use the term of monopoly, we can still say for sure they are the main provider of DGPU, which is very likely to cause competition issue)
Actually, it’s specific to libwebp, but many things that decode webp just use this library (for example, decoding webp with the “image” rust crates doesn’t use libwebp. It does use it for encoding thought).
According to this article, NVidia has a 80% market share over Discrete GPUs. https://wccftech.com/nvidia-retained-80-discrete-gpu-market-share-amd-20-in-q2-2022-despite-gaming-revenue-losses/
That certainly count as monopoly (wonder how igpu goes, but I’ll guess it’s AMD’s who’s first).
Plus they tried to buy ARM recently.
And in France, it’s not monopoly that’s illegal, but company in such situation have more legal restriction due to their potential bad influence on the market compared to smaller companies.
Well… I once tried to just copy the pdf into a .txt file that I then opened into firefox, but it seems to not translate .txt, thought it may be cause they are not HTML.
I’ve been using for a few months. Here is my opinion:
That seems pretty interesting mix of the performance of Wifi with the more multi-connection side of Bluetooth. I have yet to see what would support it (or even if there is a generic protocol for things like headset, game controller, screen, remote, media player, etc), but it seems to be the missing technology for wireless haptic feedback controller on PC.
(edit: yes, joycon can do it, but it’s a special case where they does not pass raw audio)
When you have a website, you also provide the processing power for executing JavaScript and rendering HTML+CSS.
Why they would prefer an app (that’s by definition less compatible) is unknown for me, but I can attempt to guess it’s simpler for some reason.
It is possible to deploy a lemmy server via a NixOS option. It’s under services.lemmy, see https://search.nixos.org/options?channel=unstable&from=0&size=50&sort=relevance&type=packages&query=lemmy
You could always try to improve the packaging (there is an issue I had, but a ticket was already open and should be fixed at worst in the next version of lemmy, which was released a few days ago if I’m right)
Of course, everything that make NixOS server hosting will making hosting lemmy with nixos easier, but most of the trouble I had with setting up my server a few years ago was understanding how to configure and run the DNS server on it.
Well… That seems uselessly risky and complex when you can just ask them to not do that. The issue tracker said the Youtube folks have been informed. Let’s just see if they fix that rather quickly. (but they are certainly not the only one with that kind of stuff. I’m not a big fan UA discrimination. I mean, this kind of stuff is what webcompat is all about.) (except for some purpose where you truly care about the architecture, like selecting a download link for an installer) (on the other side, I’m totally fine with feature-flags based discrimination, but that need to be done client-side).
