(it’s either something like this, or OP elided the word “audience”)

not only a racist but also a misogynist, a present-day gamergater, who is literally in 2025 still complaining that “video games used to be made for guys and now they’re made for everyone” 🤦

you can still use OpenRC instead if you want, and sxmo will continue to do so by default.

you can read here about why they added systemd.

I’m planning on revitalizing and bringing this old Itautec to the 21st century

I think it was born in the 21st century? From this it looks like the first Celeron M was in 2004, and the first at that clockspeed was 2005.

Also, 2GB of RAM is plenty for many purposes - that’s more than any Raspberry Pi before the Pi 4 had!

This article buries the lede so much that many readers probably miss it completely: the important takeaway here, which is clearer in The Register’s version of the story, is that ChatGPT cannot actually play chess:

“Despite being given a baseline board layout to identify pieces, ChatGPT confused rooks for bishops, missed pawn forks, and repeatedly lost track of where pieces were."

To actually use an LLM as a chess engine without the kind of manual intervention that this person did, you would need to combine it with some other software to automate continuing to ask it for a different next move every time it suggests an invalid one. And, if you did that, it would still mostly lose, even to much older chess engines than Atari’s Video Chess.

edit: i see now that numerous people have done this; you can find many websites where you can “play chess against chatgpt” (which actually means: with chatgpt and also some other mechanism to enforce the rules). and if you know how to play chess you should easily win :)

also “you may not remove or obscure any functionality in the software related to payment to the Licensor in any copy you distribute to others.” 🤡

FUTO’s license meets neither the free software definition nor the open source definition.

Is this a spam campaign?

Five of the eleven comments so far (including one from OP) are all recommending the same service; all five are from accounts less than 2 months old with a one or two digit number of comments 🤔

encryption would prevent the modem from seeing it when someone sends it, but such a short string will inevitably appear once in a while in ciphertext too. so, it would actually make it disconnect at random times instead :)

(edit: actually at seven bytes i guess it would only occur once in every 72PB on average…)

you could edit your post title…

Have you tried https://mike-fabian.github.io/ibus-typing-booster/ ?

I have not, but I think it does what you’re looking for.

The demo video emphasizes its use as an emoji picker but it was originally created for typing Indic languages.

if that is the case I choose upper-left of the political compass for you (:

i’m curious, where do you place yourself on that compass? if you’ve got 20 minutes I highly recommend this video about it.

At first i thought, wow, cool they’re still developing that? Doing a release or two a year, i see.

I used to use it long ago, and was pretty happy with it.

fyi: GNU coreutils are licensed GPL, not AGPL.

there is so much other confusion in this thread, i can’t even 🤦

Apple makes the source code to all their core utilities available

Apple makes the source code for many open source things they distribute available, but often only long after they have shipped binaries. And many parts of their OS which they developed in-house which could also be called “core utilities” are not open source at all.

Every Linux distro uses CUPS for printing. Apple wrote that and gave it away as free software.

for example, on a linux distro, we could modify the desktop environment and make it waaaaay lighter by getting rid of jpg or png icons and just using pure svg on it.

this has largely happened; if you’re on a dpkg-based distro try running this command:

dpkg -S svg | grep svg$ | sort

…and you’ll see that your distro includes thousands of SVG files :)

The project has been associated with an increase in the number and aggressiveness of black bears in town, including entering homes, mauling people, and eating pets. A single, definitive cause for the abnormal behavior of the bears has not been proven, but it may be due to libertarian residents who refuse to buy and use bear-resistant containers, who do not dispose of waste materials (such as feces) safely, or who deliberately put out food to attract the bears to their own yards, but do not feel any responsibility for how their behavior affects their neighbors.

A ctrl-d does nothing on a non-empty line.

ctrl-d actually is flushing the buffer regardless of if the line is empty or not.

See my other comment for how you can observe it.
