The person who said file and mediainfo put you on the right track. You’ll figure it out.
The video tapes do a somewhat decent job of correcting their own instability but cassette players need to be adjusted for wow and flutter as well as head azimuth. Make sure you’re using a player that supports the tape type and noise reduction scheme as well.
E: you may need to fiddlefuck around to get good capture from that star tech card. Or maybe it’s fine to you.
It’s the same process you would go through to activate with Microsoft. The website explains how each option works. The code is all open on GitHub under the same name.
Make your own decisions about who to trust.
You probably know this but massgrave.dev for all your moving between windows versions needs.
If normal win11 gives you problems you can still use win10 21h2 iot ltsc till 2032 with security updates and win11 iot ltsc to avoid a big part of the mess.
Hey, I think ai can be a useful tool and I use both cloud hosted and local models.
The ecological impact is god awful.
Datacenters run on fossil fuel turbines to meet demand when there isn’t enough capacity on the grid or just 24/7 because the residents of the nearby municipality said they don’t want brownouts.
Fundamentally ai datacenters transform expensive to transmit electricity into cheap to transmit data, financializing what was previously a relatively insulated commodity whose pricing and production reflect local demand into a globally traded commodity whose pricing and production reflect global demand.
If you don’t have a background in the history of industry and environment: that’s bad news for the environment (and anyone who relies on stable power rates).
Production of ai computing components requires mining rare earth minerals and phenomenal amounts of power. This is the same process with nearly the same inputs as the production of general purpose computing parts (if you leave off the increased rare earths needed to mitigate electromigration in single digit nanometer processes!) but the increased demand has already brought more fabs up to meet it meaning more use of resources and energy in production before the first kilowatt of inference is run on those chips.
Turbine blades for datacenter generators are also limited by production and are currently years out for delivery. These are components produced by advanced aerospace manufacturing shops which use massive amounts of energy to shape alloys of metals that have to be yanked out of the ground and smelted into some esoteric type of steel or aluminum first.
So even without the water concerns datacenters have tremendous impact on the environment.
But the water concerns are legitimate. Swamp chillers divert flowing water into the air where it is blown anywhere but where it would have flowed. Which is fine if you aren’t downstream of one I guess.
All this is to say: if you don’t care about the impacts you can rationalize that however you like, but they exist.
Maybe.
I think graphene is so far removed from aosp in terms of goals and strategy that would be a pretty big commitment of resources.
If you haven’t ever done upstreaming in an open source project, there’s a pretty big support commitment involved if the thing your work could be part of has insider scope than your own project.
Which is pretty much the exact situation graphene is in.
And if the graphene people are serious about security then giving aosp their (just my own hypothetical) emte enabled apps runs a good chance of providing a false sense of security to the users of those apps when not on graphene.
This isn’t hypothetical btw, I had to dig through datasheets to prove that the old pixels don’t have emte to some random commenter a week or so ago even though just the most cursory understanding of arm mte versions and release schedules would make that obvious.
The point isn’t to say people are stupid or that person was stupid, but that often people will assume the best even when it opens them up to a huge blind spot. One of the best security (and safety) practices is to make your secure component incompatible with insecure ones. That way it’s impossible for someone to point to the thick low awg nema 5-20 extension cord without acknowledging the cheater plug they used to get it into a two prong outlet with no wide neutral.
Another thing to keep in mind is ai is what people are going to be using to try to find vulnerabilities in the software so using it to beat them to the punch is just good development practices.
When you have a unique goal and set of constraints that are not shared by most users and are actually opposed to the interests of most users and developers it’s not a good idea to try to add them into an existing general purpose project.
Part of the memory tagging support of graphene for example is that the applications need to actually support it too. You can force them to deal with it, but that causes instability and crashes.
Shouldn’t all applications support memory tagging? Well that would be nice but it makes everything slower and only a few schizoid weirdos want it. Clearly the better option is to rewrite the basic system apps that everyone expects to support all the optional security features graphene requires.
Bear in mind graphenes security competition is ios. The system applications in ios all got rewritten to support emte when apple rolled out os level support for it combined with concurrent releases of new hardware with silicon support.
They’re playing a different game than the aosp community.
I have a t480 here. It took me about five minutes to unscrew the bottom panel, remove the ssd and replace the bottom panel like before.
Just make regular backups and practice restoring from them.
It would have been crazy if I had done that. Did you reply to the correct comment?
There isn’t a comparable service.
If you don’t need what mullvad is selling then there are others out there but the landscape is hard to navigate if you don’t understand what you’re there for and how to choose what you give out.
Were you able to achieve your desired results?
I should tag myself as a bot, that would be funny.
Whomst is the “they” in this reply? Did you mean to reply to me?
If you want scrollwork you use a scroll saw. If you want molding you use a router table.
If you want to make some other distro look like Omarchy you use an llm.
The distro of which youre trying to duplicate the setup you had is very ai forward. If youre trying to do something the omarchy way that would be using ai.
I do whenever possible. If you’ll remember, I replied to the ops query about why wayland is the way it is.
A better question is why are you replying to me over and over again asking circular questions?
I already answered that. I don’t think wayland should exist let alone be fixed and even if I wanted to I described the development environment around it as sclerotic and sycophantic.
What are you trying to say here?
It clearly has a serious problem that the op is experiencing. Why not help the op instead of dismissing their concerns? It really seems like you’re trolling or at least engaging in bad faith here…
So people trying to use it could more easily do so.
Because you believe in the principles behind it and want to bring them in harmony with the ops problem.
As an action in support of the open source principles you espouse, improving the commons for no other reason than your empathy and love for the human spirit!
You can also use yt-dlp and cron to pull down updates to channels periodically if the content as opposed to the interface is the point.
