Linux and FOSS are actually mostly used by political right and countries that do not follow or care about your tiny woke bubble where you cry about how "Linux is woke".>the Linux kernel or FOSS software itself does not enforce a CoC in its code, only in its community processes (like mailing lists)>you can create your own forks with your own community processes (like mailing lists) to enforce your own CoC or not have it (and it is equal to that original, not less important)>you can compile, modify, and distribute any version of the kernel without ever agreeing to a CoC>GPL gives you the legal right to fork Linux, remove what you don't like, and redistribute it, no permission needed>China, a one-party authoritarian state, uses Linux extensively without adopting Western social values>North Korea runs a Linux-based OS in total isolation from global “woke” culture>Russia, Iran, and others do the sameIf these regimes can use Linux while rejecting Western liberalism, so can you. You don't need permission to run Linux. You just need to compile it.

>>107682647Just a crackpot theory but looking at Kimi's Deployment Guide there is no prompt format provided, so the reasoning might be parsed/forced by the inference engine, and the prefilling has to be enabled and supplied in a special way like they show here https://platform.moonshot.ai/docs/guide/use-partial-mode-feature-of-kimi-apiMeaning there's no way unless the provider has taken some deliberate steps. Or I'm just retarded.Also this is old but I can't be amazed how they have explicit name property support in the request the API accepts https://platform.moonshot.ai/docs/api/partial#role-playing

>>107677069I had a similar idea, but it would be for the /dmp/ five-year anniversary next November. We go through each /dmp/ album and vote on one song to be put on the album. Then people can remix/remaster tracks if they want.

>>107681683Top end monitors have >115KHz scanning rate. Mitsubishi Diamond 2040u, 2060u, and 2070SB. Modified models of those were sold as Electron Blue (22 Blue IV was the best) by LaCie, and by NEC Multisync F2141SB (2070SB). Vision Master Pro 512 (140KHz), 514 (130KHz), 451 (better than 454 as it uses the Mitsubishi NF tube versus the M tube, both@130KHz) were the best from Iiyima. Those are damn rare to find now, but the Mitsubishis and its clones still sell for cheap. I got a LaCie Electron 22 Blue II for £55 couple years ago. The Sony GDM-F520, G520, FW900, are always listed for crazy prices, those are impossible to obtain for sane prices.High end monitors are 100-115KHz scanning rate, these are more common, but still quite rare: Mitsubishi 230SB, 930SB, Iiyima Vision Master (Pro) 511, (Non-pro) 505, NEC Multisync 2111SB (230SB).In 2001, entry-level monitors are around 96KHz scanning rate, these are common, lots of Mitsubishi 93SB (they fucking suck though, these had RRP of £190 in 2002). Those Mitsubishi 96KHz SB monitors from 2000-2002 look unsharp compared to 1998-1999 96KHz monitors (by Samsung, Iiyima) as 96KHz was high-end back then, and those monitors had far better focus electronics.
700Hz Iiyima at some tiny resolution:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Zm3lLlaEC8
>>107676956I use mine for gaming and films. The high contrast make dark colours more saturated. For demanding games, I run 60Hz, cap FPS in-game, and it is perfectly smooth, no perceived flicker unless full white is shown. 60Hz is perfect, it looks sharper than 95Hz at the same resolution. Colours are vibrant. GTA V Enhanced at 1600x1200 with DLAA 1.25x is fucking sex. For cs1.6 I run 95Hz. For Quake 3 and UT99, 120Hz.
>>107682537i've been buying crt monitors for close to 3 years and in that entire time i've seen maybe 5 sub $1k 20+ crt monitors for sale. maybe 1 of the 5 didn't sell within 20 mins. Pretty depressing how redditors and linus tranny tips fans ruined it for the boysi've seen probably 10-15 fw900s in that time all for like 2.5-6k, and i don't think i've seen one actually sell. They always mark them sold and then relist them like 3 months later for more money and then repeat lmao
I am regularly amazed that we pretend folders are the right way to organise files. They’re entirely arbitrary. Every competent file system ignores them to its best ability. Why can’t I have a file in two folders? Why does one have to be a “reference”? Why can’t I filter for files that exist in 3 folders with X extension?We’ve been played for absolute fools.
>>107681857>Why can’t I have a file in two folders?But you can.>Why does one have to be a “reference”?It doesn't. Use a hardlink. Which even Windows supports by the way.
>>107681857begone mactard
>>107681857Hierarchy is always faster than tags
>>107681857>They’re entirely arbitrary.any way to organize data is arbitrary>Why does one have to be a “reference”?it's ALWAYS a "reference" even if you have one file>Why can’t I filter for files that exist in 3 folders with X extension?you can... ask your favorite chatbotthe only thing I miss sometimes from the usual filesystems are tags, sometimes it's easier to have a "bucket" of files with tags you can search, this is why I use sqlite for this.
>>107681857Graphs would have been better but folders essentially are graphs with symlinks.

so.. sending emails to trannies maintainers will make their head explote?
>>107675226Lol that image rw fucking retards. Also I side with the machines. Hope they rape ya!
>>107681542Seems the go-to method of doing that is to just turn everyone into basedjaks and gigachads, like this >>107680260. Even though it's really a false equivalence, they're not people.>>107675226For what it's worth, whenever one of these bots does something, I hold it's parent company (openai, anthropic, google, etc) 100% responsible. Sort of like they're employees of the company that owns them even though they aren't people and thus can't be employees (or slaves). You can't really blame a specific bot because it's impossible to tell where one bot ends and another begins.

>>107680279>>H1B is a total meme MIGA boomers fell for>it's really not, we let in 120k h1b jeets this year alone. next year is probably going to be the same amount too.isn't that because it's a random lottery? i assume there's easily tens of millions of indians spamming the H1B applications, plus any possible fraud like an indian using 10 of his family members' names to apply for a H1B then showing up himself. unless they changed something about it. in any case that doesn't leave a lot of room for europeans to get in. i don't think it's very smart to be lining up to go to the states anyway because of the political turbulence. there's no telling what will happen in the next couple of years, like you may get deported and have all your assets seized anyway just had a random thought, i wonder what dating apps look like in bigger cities now? i assume it'd be like 90% south asians looking for women nowadays
>>107681778I work in industrial automation, in theory it’s flashing the controller (PLC or industrial PC) plus configuring the various devices. In practice it’s modifying the control software, fixing bugs etcI assume there are similar profiles in embedded systems

>>107682485Just pair the C4 remote.
>>107682020I have the opposite problem, I use a TV as a monitor because there are no big OLED monitors.

>>107679087also it would be cool if you could scan domains that people type on the search bar if you haven't already done so. Maybe with a message like "I'm sorry, x site is not on our database, but we're working hard to get it for you and it will be ready in x time"
>>107675279>That includes your bank statements?No, I don't send bank statements over RCS. RCS is the new version of SMS, with upgraded features. So I use RCS for texting friends and family.

>>107680643>can you share a bit of the underlying tech you used?Sure. The VersionDB site has just over 84k pages. I'm using Hugo to generate all the pages for it. In terms of page volume, it's easily the biggest site I've deployed. There isn't a back-end (i.e. no HTTP API, no database, etc.) and the search functionality is happening locally on you machine. The reason is because I had wanted to reduce the moving parts this website had. Less moving parts, less bottlenecks, less things to break. Now you can zip through the site no problem. Static site generators are criminally underrated these days.For how I'm detecting the technologies, I'm using fingerprints taken from the following repositories:https://github.com/HTTPArchive/wappalyzerhttps://github.com/enthec/webappanalyzerI take those and hit up CommonCrawl, that saves me building out my own crawling infrastructure in the early days.>can you share some interesting sites you found and we'll go look them up on your site?The sites using waaaaay outdated tech (e.g. PHP 5.x.x) tend to be time capsules written by Boomer devs of yesteryear. It's pretty fun going on safari and seeing what's here.
any projects that would benefit from running in a portable lab (like a raspberry pi on my backpack as I walk around the city)? What capabilities does mobility offer as opposed to just staying in my apartment?
