To be clear, I definitely agree that this is a bad idea.

However, one of the hardest things about making autonomous cars work is avoiding traffic and pedestrians. If air traffic control can be managed such that these avoid other aircraft (and things like buildings and cell towers, obviously) I could actually see this as easier to get the software working.

The commit added Ukrainian translations to the install instructions. Most were vanilla, but at the end of the file they added some statements with things like "Oh no, this is inappropriate for your sensitive religion". I'm not quoting exactly here, for obvious reasons.

Maybe apps will finally feel free to bundle LAME instead of forcing you to download it externally!

Yeah, I made the mistake of running Hyprland on a fresh arch install and was super confused at the lack of terminal 😅

Permanent zero-cost activation that survives reinstalls

[–] [email protected] 27 points 2 years ago (2 children)

KMS requires phoning back to MS periodically to keep the license activated. It's still "permanent" because there's no limit on duration (as of now at least).

HWID activation registers a hardware ID in MS servers to permanently license it. That means no renewal, just forever activation that survives reinstalls.

100% in the same boat. WSL and VSCode is basically a requirement for me, and codium can't do the WSL linking.

Just want to shout out to reviewbrah for giving us this absolute gem of a phrase

Fix is to address a critical CVE:

Specific handling of an attacker-controlled VP8 media stream could lead to a heap buffer overflow in the content process. We are aware of this issue being exploited in other products in the wild.

Creating a driver requires a deep understanding of some pretty low-level pieces of Linux. If you're new to Linux, you should probably start with some "new to Linux" tutorials and get an understanding of some basic command line usage. Work your way up to being able to follow a guide on compiling the Linux kernel (without any of your own modifications). After that, you can seek out guides on creating a driver.

As a second note, fingerprint drivers are categorically difficult to work with, so this would really be jumping in on the deepest of deep ends. You can do it! But it will take a LOT of self-education.

My strategy too. I have a piece of paper with my bitwarden credentials (password and OTP code) and a list of important items like bank accounts, utilities on autopay, etc.

I review it with my spouse every year and update anything out of date.

I completely believe that, assuming it's one of the non-4K sticks. The older generation models are rather wimpy and slow (we had one that we replaced for exactly this reason), but any of the newer 4K-capable devices have been snappy and responsive.
