  • All these years I thought GTK stands for Gnome Tool Kit...

  • New Linux users usually do not use Arch though. Arch doesn't advertise itself as friendly to new Linux users. This problem doesn't exist on distros that cater to new Linux users such as Mint. If you insist on using an Arch-based system, then just use endeavour os which also handles Nvidia drivers automatically.

  • Autoscaling for personal projects is just a tool to turn random DDOS into personal bankruptcy.

  • Tesla is very confident their customers won't need steering wheel anymore soon, so they went ahead and fuck the steering wheel even though the autopilot can't work in all circumstances yet.

  • Looks like software heritage has it archived, up to yesterday's commit: https://archive.softwareheritage.org/browse/origin/directory/?origin_url=https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu-android

    They also archived other yuzu git repos: https://archive.softwareheritage.org/browse/search/?q=github.com%2Fyuzu-emu%2F&with_visit=true&with_content=true

    Might want to grab anything that looks important there in case it got taken down too. That yuzu.wiki repo seems important because it contains instructions on how to build yuzu.

  • Some people estimates they net ~$1.2M on patreon so far. If that's the case they still ~$1.2M short.

  • Need to track down the most up to date archive first. Maybe someone know where to look? This one doesn't seem to contain yuzu-android source code.

  • Do you know where to grab yuzu-android source code?

  • Does it has the early access version, or the regular version?

  • So, are Yuzu developers actually have $2.4M lying around, or will they pay for it in installment like Gary Bowser?

  • It's gone from the Play Store as well. Glad I managed to grab a copy of the early access version few days ago even though my phone isn't fast enough to run it full speed. I guess the money I paid for the early access version went to Nintendo.

  • Ryujinx devs are probably sweating right now. Might want to grab the latest version in case it goes away soon.

  • Simulation Theory

    Jump
  • What if we're just cannon fodder npc in an fps shooter simulation? In that case let's pray the older brother doesn't take control of the player character.

  • Afaik lemmy doesn't associate your account with your ip address. The webserver itself has ip log, but only associates it with user agent and url visited so correlating it with a particular user may not be trivial, or even possible in a busy server. Also, instance owners are usually pretty keen on reducing operational cost and probably probably won't retain those log files for too long, or even not retaining them at all.

  • That's because mozilla foundation never actually taking donation drive seriously.

    Let's consider current situation: currently, mozilla corp allocates significant engineering resource to develop revenue-generating services such as pocket, vpn, and now, AI stuff. What if mozilla never need to try to chase revenue, and instead focus on being an actual foundation, funded by grants and donations? Their expense would be significantly lower.

    Let's say mozilla able to refocus development back to firefox and retain 250 highly paid engineers, with yearly expense for salary, benefits and other overhead at ~$100 million per year. That's less than 1/4 of search royalties they got from google in 2020. Now put those $300 million extra money into an endowment instead of wasting it on marketing and other revenue-chasing activities, and start to seriously looking into grants and collecting donations like wikimedia foundation, and in a few years mozilla might be able to amass a huge fund to guarantee independent firefox development for years, or even in perpetuity with huge enough endowment.

  • Android phones will ping a known endpoint (e.g. connectivitycheck.gstatic.com ) to check if the wifi network actually work or not. Maybe this endpoint is blocked on your network?
