I think they dont care on purpose. Dual boot is a gateway drug, so the more problems with it the better for Microsoft.

I think you may like Expeditionary Force series, there is quite a bit of what you are looking for.

I guess Asimov Foundation series would also be a good candidate for world building.

Is this the Lemmy that is said to be less toxic than Reddit? Maybe it wasn't Subway, maybe it was something different. It was 10years ago, I may be misremembering the details.

Did I remember everything correctly? Dunno. Are you being a dick? That's 100%.

Damn it! Last year I upgraded to blockchain PC since my original Cloud-Native one was a disappointment.

Crypto as currency = good.

Crypto as investment = bad.

First one is technological progress, the other is a Ponzi scheme.

The architecture can easily be open source - as long as repo is missing just the training data. Just like there are Doom engines that are open source, even though they do not provide WAD files, which are still copyrighted. The code is there, but it is somewhat useless without the data. Analogy is not perfect, but let's assume it compiles to a single binary containing everything, maps included.

If ID Software gives you a compiled Doom with maps free to use it is freeware. If they open source the engine (they actually did), but do not release the WAD files as open source, the compiled game is not open source - it is still freeware.

It is not complicated really.

Yesterday I've spent an hour to figure out how to make Cities Skylines use my RTX 2070 instead of the integrated one on PopOS. For me this is the main issue I face with games. Is having a dedicated AMD card instead better?

As a mechanical engineer - there is no serviceable free CAD. The only thing you can hope for is Linux compatibility - and you have 100% of that with Onshape only (cloud based).

I remember that in pre-school in around 1990 we made clay ashtrays for father's day. My father did not smoke but they told me to make one anyway...

I skimmed the paper. As you said, they made a ML model that takes images and traditional risk factors (TCv8).

I would love to see comparison against risk factors + human image evaluation.

Nevertheless, this is the AI that will really help humanity.

Nothing is happening in Norway. Source: I live in Norway.

I've met only a handful people that use Linux on their desktop, plus some developers that use it at work.
