I don’t think we will ever be able to prove nor disprove intelligent design. We simply do know how much we don’t know and it is therefore impossible to rule out or confirm that. It also creates the paradox of if a creator existed, they’d have to exist in something which then begs the question whether they have a creator, which could easily enter infinite recursion.
As for the number of parameters that make habitable universes possible, we think to have found 26 but who knows how many actually exist. He pointed out the electric dipole moment of a neutron having no bearing on habitability, but how can he know that to be true 100%? It’s like how we believed our DNA was 98% junk only to find out it does have a function.
I like the thought experiments but they stay just that, thought experiments - at least until they can be tested.


26 dimensions?


Yep, GrayJay is it. They do have to use embedded chromium and did so within a C# application, which I cannot understand, but it does work well. They have a flatpak which works on all my desktops.


OP seems to be talking about high level institutions collaborating with the opensource community to make linux phones a reality. Those aren’t “normal people” but politicians and their ilk. They should be thinking different than the average consoomer i.e not “oh it’s shiny and popular, fuck the price”.


Interesting, but I’m curious about how it comlaresbto other technologies in cost, maintenance, and efficiency. There are molten salt batteries being tested as well as hydrogen fuel cells, even heated concrete and flywheels.
These seem simple but that can hide complex problems.


Ai still needs them to mindlessly make a robot factory with AI to print AI. I’m sure it’ll be safe


We’d need to provide a reason for them to want a Linux phone. What use could a politician have for such a phone? We need to find good, strong reasons for it.
Sovereignty is the big thing right now. Supply chain attacks too.
Is there maybe a cost projection we could provide?
But also, how can it tir into other goals? If it’s just disconnected from everything, it probably won’t get much steam. Crosscutting concerns have to be tackled with a Linux phone. Concerns that’s are tangible and not philosophical or ethical.


The “lib snowflake” screamers and “cancel culture” whiners crying about a game showing the KKK negatively is just too good.


The tragedy of the “commons”.


Hopefully these won’t end up in the ukraine war on the side of Russia 😐


The US and the West at large just thought China would stay that nice exploitable country for cheap labor forever. Their plans never adjusted to either find an alternative or move back production.
Capitalists praise “the power of the market” for being agile and whatnot, but companies (and many Western countries are being run by companies) target costs optimisation at all costs. They are like AIs with a bias for it and hyper-specialise for it. The only moves companies have are “buy the competitor” and for countries it’s just protectionism until war.
This isn’t praise for China throwing the majority of their citizens into the machine as cheap labor for Western companies, more a critique of the West’s tunnel vision. We will reap what we sowed.
Arch users recommending Arch to beginners. In other words, Arch is fine, the community isn’t.


Hopefully this also means monetary investment in open source, not just open source usage without a support contract or contributing back. Matrix is a great example of an open source project that is being used by governments but struggling to get paid because governments are employing their own support staff and making internal forks.
But the more governments, agencies and individuals switch, there greater the chance they’ll pay the developers and maintainers for support or features.


What are you talking about? Are you saying sealed sender is a lie? If so, I want some proof.


There is a lot of FUD here. It’s just like anti-vaxxers claiming vaccines make you autistic or have microchips in them: they don’t understand what they’re talking about, have different threat models, and are paranoid.
Messages are private on signal and they cannot be connected to you through sealed sender. There have been multiple audits and even government requests for information which have returned only the phone number and last connection time.


Nothing “derailing” us. Not everyone has the same threat model. The messages are private and that’s what’s most important. Signal can only provide phone number and last connection time to the feds. If that’s too much information for you, then you’re not the target group and have a different threat model.
Thanks for the response. So there’s a bunch of stuff to do myself but also surprisingly enough stuff for an editor.
I’ll take a deeper look at it.
After reading this, I’m kinda curious how it compares to JetBrains. It’s becoming more and more VSCode like and I’m not a fan.
Does Kate support or have plugins for renaming symbols, presenting documentation, formatting files, showing code diagnostics beyond syntax errors (for example code smells or so), have AI integration (explain this, rewrite this, replace this with prompt output, …), specific framework integrations (reactjs, django, actix, …), and stuff like expanding macros in C/C++ and Rust?
A good friend’s grandma was missing her friends and I suggested getting her online so that she could meet other people while gaming, but the idea was rejected as she had enough trouble fighting out WhatsApp. Her daughters had to call her on Google Messenger until it was killed.
She finally died of cancer but was very happy while doing it because of the relief. No more pain, no more loneliness. I wish we could introduce gaming to more seniors. It might make their life more interesting. Then could even have a Gray League and stream themselves to other aging people.
I bet that if the people born between after 1980 get to retire, gaming will be pretty normal. Unless social media has eaten away at their brains too much. Or something greater comes along like brain to computer interfaces.
