Reads like an infomercial for Epic to me


Disappointing article, ars is using desktop-vlass hardware to calculate the pricing, butthe steam machine is using laptop parts (CPU, GPU, and RAM).
This is an entry-level level PC, 700 is way too much, other entry-level miniPCs, which are between 500 and 600.
The linked reddit post (why couldn’t he just link yo the original video content? ) does a much better job reasoning about the bill of materials and comparing it against other products
Vates demoed on kubecon an ARM workstation running XCP-ng, a xen-based virtualization platform.

It’s still early days, but I’m hoping it can reach homelabs, the big question being hardware enablement, which is difficult on ARM baseboards due to lack of standardization.
Disclaimer: I work with Vates, and prepared some component to compile under ARM to prepare the demo.
Preaching to the choir here :)


There’s time until March for the maintainers of the 3 niche architectures to organize and make rust available for them. Doesn’t sound that abrupt to me


Nevermimd that signal’s centralisation makes it vulnerable to this kind of outage, and that was a conscious design decision. So nobody should be surprise this has happened.

This was an embarrassing and unhinged article to read.
Big tech companies (we’re talking about Meta FFS) have long demonstrated they will exploit psychology to trigger addiction-like behaviours to make people stay more time on their app and be able to generate more money through ads.
I’m at a loss for words regarding how the article is unable to grasp how schools are not funded as well as these tech companies to combat the unethical shit they do through education.
I’m also dumbfounded as to why is this article in a censorship channel. Poor Zuckerberg can’t suck whatever blood he wants? How about posting articles about how social media have contributed to promote polarizing contents and propaganda for years if not decades, much of which is meant to destabilise western democracies?


While it performs well nd has fancy new features, it’s still lacking one that I use every day: find words on the already-printed text: https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/issues/189
It looks like it’s going to take months until it’s available
For fuck’s sake, why can’t we have nice things?
I’m very disappointed, this “open tent” argument is intellectualy dishonest and unacceptable: allowing openly hateful people into the big tent only means they will harm other people, and end up alone. It’s just impossible to have a big tent with them and must be excluded.
I was trying to get the company I work for to adopt framework laptops as standard, and they were very interested. I’ve told them to stop the adoption effective immediately until there’s a reversal in political messaging the company is doing, a simple “we’re sorry we won’t don’t again” is not enough when they have funded
This also applies to recommending it to friends and family, of course.


I give them less than a year to turn sour and start “pivoting to a new strategy”

To be exact, they are empowering Microsoft future. This is because of the absolute insane amount of money they are pumping into LLMs while still not finding a business case for them.
I know, yes. But I’m talking about virtualization, not containerizarion
Personally, I want to properly isolate the services with virtualization. The main reason is I expose some of the services online, and I don’t t want to only rely on keeping all software up-to-date at all times. This allows me to limit the damage if one of the services is compromised.
I wouldn’t use MacOS as the virtualization platform, and instead use something else, like BSD, Linux, or xen-based for my servers


Mercedes Benz is the only EU manufacturer unable to meet the quotas, of course he wants to change them. And yet Euronews won’t call him out on this.
When will journalists do their job instead of being mouthpieces?

Sounds like my next phone won’t use Android then, and I’ll tell everybody to avoid it. If only Linux mobile was in a hood place :(

Sorry, I made a typo, I meant drives, not drivers.
Firmware is software embedded in the SSDs, and Windows has no control over them. Microsoft can’t fix this and the SSD manufacturers here are at fault.
Do note that I escaped Windows in 2017, and wouldn’t like to go back to it because of how nauseatingly user-hostile it is.

Eh… Reading the article it’s clear what’s causing this are faulty SSD drives. Windows might stress their crappy firmware, but the fault lies on the hardware.
Translation: they want to stop paying Denuvo for their DRM system
