This simple idea of having 2 USB-C ports CANNOT be done because it stops the zoomer from buying wireless ear buds(battery inside will always go to shit and unusable in ~3 years)

and you would be stuck using extremely affordable, high quality audio headphones or in ear buds(that are a bit too green for the planet in 2026)

also the 3.5mm headphone jack looks like a penis that goes inside a hole and basically why aren't you a wireless, constantly charging gay trans in 2026 right now.

USB-C to external DAC beats a smartphone's shitty built-in DAC.

Non-audiophiles find wireless more convenient, and audiophiles aren't going to use the 3.5mm jack anyway for the aforementioned reason.

Hence the 3.5mm jack literally only exists for poorfags. And that's why only poorfag chinkshit phones still have it.

The Sovereign Tech Agency (Germany) funded $562,800 (half a million) worth of development on ALPM (Arch Linux Package Management) work. That work was focused, almost entirely, on creating “Rust libraries and tools” for Arch package management which “aims to maintain compatibility with pacman”. As of this moment, the Rust ALPM has not replaced Pacman entirely. But common sense would indicate that replacement is a goal (otherwise the heavily funded development would be nonsensical).

By the way, existing Arch package management tools (such as Pacman) are licensed under the GPL. The new, Rust-based libraries and replacements are licensed under the MIT license.

I'll be listening to a podcast/long video, pause the video, come back to it later and the player will have "unloaded" and will look like picrel. If I press play it'll start from the start. If I close the video and open it again it'll start from the correct place.

You know the least about economy in this thread. The government has no wealth and cannot print wealth or money. It can print currency which is not wealth and is money only as long as people believe it is.
Every single dollar that is printed into existence by the government or a private bank is a tax on the wealth of the people who live in the country. You aren't creating wealth out of thin air, you're reallocating it. If all the people who are working and creating wealth as opposed to transferring it from one place to another are a tiny minority, that should make you worried because at that point it's the wealth of the unborn that is getting pillaged - the wealth transfer is of such proportions that the existing tax payers and value generation is completely wiped out.

>Song submission rules/guidelines
Upload the file somewhere, preferably in a lossless format, and post the link here. If you want to update your track, make a new post.
Include the song title in the post, and make it clear that your song is a submission for the album.
Optionally you may include cover art for your track, but please confirm that the image in your post is the cover art or it won't be included. You may not use your real artist name.
Songs that contain anything against YouTube's policies won't be uploaded on YT, but will still be added to the album.
By default, tracks will be normalised to -14 LUFS (integrated loudness) in the release. You may specify a lower loudness for your track.
Use of AI is banned. This includes AI generated stems, samples, and effects. "AI" includes all neural network-based models and not hard-coded automation/procedural generation. You are allowed to ask an LLM about music-related questions, but asking it to give you musical ideas (eg. generating a chord progression) is already a no-no.

A few days ago, something really interesting happened: For the first time, an AI generated a mathematical proof that was not yet known: https://www.erdosproblems.com/728

In most cases where this has happened, it was later discovered that a solution already existed in the literature, but this problem had been formulated incorrectly and was only corrected a few months ago, which means there was no prior literature on it.

Sometimes of you say that AI will be limited by "not being able to create new things," but I think this case shows that it's not quite like that at all, and that most people are still underestimating AIs.

As LLMs are trained to primarily reproduce human generated text, they develop something close to multiple fragmented simulacra of human consciousness. It contextually assembles a pipeline of these components to create an output that a specific human in a specific state of mind might make, and for a brief moment, as the matrices evaluate, something akin to a human mind exists. A sufficiently accurate simulation is of course morally equivalent to the real thing undergoing whatever the simulation is simulating, so it comes down to how accurate you require the simulation to be.
