Yeah definitely the latter, but phrasing it as generation is very very wierd. Literally physically impossible.

Oh my god if you are a new user please do not go straight to Arch or Manjaro. By far the two distros most likely to breaky irreparably.
Helium is tiny, and will diffuse though pretty much anything other than continuous welded metal pipe very very quickly. The elastomer seals on a phone would slow it down slightly, but the article’s from 2018, before so many phones were watertight. I remember my old iPhone had a little piezo cooling fan in one of the grates on the bottom, so helium would have no trouble at all.
Can’t speak for MEMS specifically, but it absolutely can make chips shut down whole instruments by changing their properties. It intercalates slower, but has much the same effect once it’s in there.
Yup. Most of the mems devices will essentially shut down the device if they go out of tolerance. This is a pretty common-knowledge fact among folks who work with large magnets, or with helium or hydrogen gas.
Funnily enough, it also happens with equipment microcontrollers which are unlikely to have a MEMS unit in them – for instance, any benchtop centrifuge made after the mid-90s will shut down, and I’m pretty sure those are still on quartz clocks. It also effects things like on-chip thermometers.
Deeply confused by what the hell this is
For a $240 case, no review is going to make me want to buy it, but god is it funny to watch Steve’s frustration with it.
Would you be willing to elaborate a little bit as to what the roadblocks are with Sublinks right now? Just curious, and the feature set/current status is not super obvious in their github.
I’m not familiar with fwupdmgr
, so I’m not sure either about it delivering bios updates. A good tool to know about for sure, though!
I don’t mean use the RSS feed to actually deliver, I just mean a blog-style announcement. Of course, to be security conscious you shouldn’t follow any links in that announcement to download it, but still.
I don’t think I’ve ever gotten bios updates via apt…not sure if that’s a laptop thing, a manufacturing thing, or what.
The latest blog post says it should be just a few days, which is nice!
Yeah! I only discovered them a couple of weeks ago through this community and they’re fantastic.
Specifically to make something which is not mission-critical reliant on any underlying software…but that’s almost impossible. Not reliant on the base operating system would be a nice start.
While it is true that the ad business model is changing as you describe, Google’s strategy with respect to it is also absolutely about monopolizing the ad market.
I mean any technology solution can suffer the same fate, but you would hope that it wouldnt be an issue at the same time if they’re separate tech stacks.
So all their products are breaking…
To be honest, I’m not sure if it would be more concerning for them to have just one fatal issue with their process, or two unrelated ones.
Yeah the issue is that so many companies were at the intersection of two monopolies – either one failing has catastrophic effects, and there’s no backup plan.
I mean yes they did “formally request” it, but given the power dynamic between a FOSS project and a large technology company, openSUSE is not in a position where they could possibly refuse. So is there a difference between a request and a demand?
Technically changed two letters. Thats what makes them innovator auteur geniuses.
