That's just an a architectural description, any non toy implementation is still propriety. That's without solving the layout and tapeout for whatever highly propriety process node you plan to build on.

That's cool. I've just recently gotten hold of an interesting Ampere system and it's got an AMD card in it. I must give it a spin.

So I may be biased but what is vmwares USP? From my limited experience it was a slightly more polished GUI for creating VMs and the ability to run on older pre-virt hardware. Is the experience still objectively better than the alternatives?

For a moment I thought you were referring to the genlock anti piracy device. That was a fresnal lens you held up to the screen to decode a key to continue the game.

I love the fact Jake at LWN is going on an Emacs journey. The writing is always top notch.

I wrote me first program on a TI99/4A but played my first game on a SWTPC 6800 machine. It was either trek or adventure.

I wonder if they will ever consider upstreaming their changes to Qemu? I know the upstream x86 decoder had seen some updates recently as well at the general improvements to code gen. How often does the project go through a painful rebase?

This is essentially what org-mode files are, plain text files with a bit of markup so they can be organised or rendered to other formats.

This seems like an excellent idea and hopefully provides a model for other media outlets to follow.

I certainly agree with a lot of that analysis. I also worry how signal continue to fund their app sustainably without compromising their users.

I think in this case the bot rather butchered the mood piece.

It is most likely another filesystem mounted where the flatpak can see it. A terminal tool like ncdu or even du will take an -x option to not cross file-system boundaries. That will show the true usage of everything bellow where you call it (even though it is a ramfs so not persisted across reboots).
